That's exactly what it means. Once someone told me not to LICK the gift horse in the mouth! I was like I would happen to agree. You shouldn't lick a gift horse in the mouth either. lol |

I always thought it meant that if you get something free appreciate it, and don't go looking for flaws. The use of the horse was because people can determine the horse's age by their teeth. smart guy yeah I guess if I was without a horse.. back in the day and the local livery only had a free horse with a stumble and he new I had a hundred mile walk out of the canyon then it would be an insult to look at the horses teeth. like the expression: they're starting to get long in the tooth, referring to older people. It appears an older horses teeth are getting longer but the gums retreat with age. so as Leigh mentioned it can mean a few different things. |

really not sure why we're talking about this wretched (Valentine's Day)holiday already. Especially when it's over a month away! I despise holidays set up by greeting card makers and florists just to fleece the people of hard earned money to show their supposed significant others how much they care for someone. Of course, I'll be sitting there on the day most likely....

Word!....It can also mean, "Don't refuse something good when it is being offered." |

Eat chocolate, be happy and kiss the stars in the sky! You are off by a month and I don't like chocolate. |

I'm editing my previous comment, because I forgot that most people on this site still believe in fairy tales and enjoy being miserable because they're alone on holidays, simply because society has told them that being alone is bad. So I'll let everyone have that....I'll be in the corner over here enjoying the chocolates and roses and admiring how my ring hits the light.

Valentine's Day is about love, not validation..... ....And it's fun too...Remember in grade school...Making a Valentine box and everyone exchanging those cute little cards :-)...And how much you hoped you would get the "I love you " card from your secret crush ...

(Unless I put lipstick on my hand 1st to make it look like lips) I'll stick with cuz it at least helps to feel(loved somewhat) as opposed to feeling or . I consider it a wretched day because the day has usually been a horrible day for me in the past. And I'm not the optimist type.....my bad |

I had to listen to those who were whining about being alone for Christmas. I was alone too but no big deal. Seems people need to see how good they have things. There are people that are homeless, jobless, and hungry. They have it way more worse that those that are alone. |

That was fun. I had a few secret admirers that wrote some mind blowing things. One that I am now remembering was in grade 9 and my name was called on the morning announcements as we all started the day from our home rooms. Thinking I got busted for something I thought I got away with. It turned out "they" were able to use the school office as a 'middle man' & the reception passed me an envelope. It had some Valentines cards with a detailed letter how she had been watching me and admiring my physique for quite some time. It just stoped me in my tracks as I was reading it.It was both a weird and flattering feeling I remember.I did eventually find out a few years later but she never led on,she definitely was a good girl type. "To all you Virgins, thnks for nothing".I owned a T-Shirt that said that; which I wore to school, that year I'm sure you guys got stories? |
