Valentines Day in Japan
Valentines Day in Japan is a lot the same as in the US. Stores full of chocolates and assorted goodies for giving. The big difference, ladies, is that Men aren't the ones buying the chocolates. Valentines Day is a day when Women buy chocolates for the men. It has evolved not only to include your sweetheart, but co-workers and family as well. Japanese people love giving gifts. Ladies, there is an upside to this though...................On March 14th, the tables are turned. Any man who received chocolates from someone on Valentines Day is expected to return the gesture........only bigger and better!! So buy up on Valentines Day, and reap your rewards a month later!!!
