每年2月14日，是西方传统的圣瓦伦丁节，又称“情人节”。它具有悠久的历史。古罗马  时代的牧神节，就是一个情侣们的节日。是日男女青年可以欢聚一堂。

姑娘们把表达爱情 的祝辞放在签筒里，小伙子依次抽签，抽到哪位姑娘的祝辞，那位姑娘就成为他的恋人。  基督教兴起，教会对牧神节风俗很不以为然。但由于这个节日受到青年人的偏爱，所  以仍然延续了下来。到公元7世纪，教会领袖希望把这节日同基督教联系在一起，于是他 们用基督教殉教者瓦伦丁的名字为这个节日重新命名，并把日期由原来的2月15日改为2月 14日。翻阅早期基督教殉教史，可以找到三个叫瓦伦丁的殉教者，其中一个是公元3世纪的 主教。

当时罗马皇帝认为已婚男子都不愿离家当兵，即使上了战场也不会成为一个好兵，  因此发布了一道禁止结婚的法令瓦伦丁对此十分忧虑，他违背皇帝的旨意，秘密地为青年  人举行婚礼，因此遭到监禁，于公元271年2刀14日死于狱中.经过几世纪的漫长岁月，瓦伦丁节的庆祝方式发生了不少变化。

在16世纪的英国，瓦  伦丁节的风俗十分奇特有趣。随着新大陆的开发，英国移民又把这一极富有浪漫色彩的节  日带到了北美，逐渐成为美国人喜爱的节日之一。在美国，瓦伦丁节已不仅是青年入的节日。亲人朋友之间，不论年龄大小，都可以互  送小礼品以表达感情，增进友谊。美国有不少商店专门出售这类礼品。如装饰成心形的高  级巧克力糖盒，或者系着红缎带的郁金香花束等。至于各式各样饰有花边、洒上香水的情  人卡，更是比比皆是。  当然，年青人才是瓦伦丁节真正当之无愧的主角。他们在这一天郑重其事地为恋人选  择礼物，兴高采烈地伴同朋友去郊游：或者成双成对地去参加由俱乐部组织的情人舞会。  特别有趣的是，那些心灵手巧的小伙子常常想方设法把向姑娘求爱的瓦伦丁节问候卡制成  玲拢精制的工艺品，有的仿佛是一只美丽的蝴蝶，有的宛若一朵盛开的鲜花：还有的恰似 爱神丘比特正在弯弓射箭。

那些痴情的姑娘则按照传统习俗，在瓦伦丁节前夜把月桂树叶  放在枕头上，盼望着在梦中同自己的心上人相会。 特别引人入胜的是情人节之夜的化装舞会。这在几十年前就十分流行。参加舞会的入  ，个个煞费苦心地将自己装扮起来，有的化装成中世纪的骑士，有的化装成西班牙的海盗  ，还有的化装成东方的皇帝。聪明的舞会主人常常给每位客人发，个带花边的瓦伦丁卡片  ，上面写着某个人的名字，这个人就成为你今晚的伙伴。因此在舞会上，人们便可以看到罗密欧和灰姑娘翩翩起舞；哈姆雷特同卡门谈笑风生；阿拉伯公主同查理二世共进晚餐。  他们化装得那样维妙维肖．使人觉得仿佛真的是一群古人复活了。  瓦伦丁节就是这样一个充满爱情和友谊的欢乐节日.
