If you need proof that there is still love in the world, look no further than our February issue. It’s packed with hundreds and hundreds of reader-submitted love notes, all gushing with sweet sentiments and declarations of admiration.
There’s a Valentine for Pookie Mamacita, Kitty, and Goose. There are people celebrating love landmarks like anniversaries, moving in together, and having a baby. I think there’s even a marriage proposal?
Read through hundreds of reader-submitted Valentines here. Or, grab an issue at one of our hundreds of distro locations to find it in print!
