What's The Origin Of Valentine's Day?

There have been different stories around Valentine's Day throughout the years and together they form the story we know today. St. Valentine was a Catholic priest in Rome in the 3rd century. During this period, more and more Romans were converting to Christianity, but Emperor Claudius II devised various laws to prevent this. He believed that Romans should dedicate their lives to Rome and forbade his soldiers to marry. St. Valentine married these soldiers in secret, which made him a true believer in love.

Eventually, his secret was discovered and he was imprisoned. In prison, he cared for his fellow prisoners and is said to have given a girl back her sight. He wrote her a love note, just before his execution, saying 'from your Valentine'. He was executed on 14 February 269.
