Y. .. Who was St. Valentine? was the year 270 when the Roman Emperor Claudius II forbade members of his army to marry, arguing that married men were bad soldiers and bad serving the needs of the Empire.
Bishop Valentine opposed the decree and promoted marriage among young couples in love, who came to church to get married in secret. Claudius II in vain demanded the rebel bishop complied with the ban, as Valentine continued celebrating marriages in secret.
On February 14 the Christian bishop was beheaded after being beaten and stoned by orders the emperor.
In the V century AD, Pope Gelasius instituted on February 14 as Valentine's Day, patron saint of lovers.

Why Valentine's Day cards are sent?
From the beginning of the festivities in honor of Lupercus, the young Roman men and women looking for partners in mid-February. When these pagan festivals were banned by the Catholic Church, the young Romans decided to continue the tradition of sending love letters to girls who wanted to woo every 14 February. It was typical sign these messages with the pen name of St. Valentine. The oldest of which is preserved was sent in 1415 by Charles, Duke of Orleans, his wife, while he was imprisoned in the Tower of London.
In the sixteenth century, San Francisco de Sales, Bishop of Geneva, attempted to break this habit. But all she got was that the cards be made more famous and even more decorative. Cupid, the naked cherub armed with a lot of arrows dipped in love potion, became the popular image of these cards that everyone knew as "valentines."
In the seventeenth century there were large hand-drawn cards and start selling in stores, although these were smaller and more expensive. Gradually, the process was mechanized and soon were printed with poems and drawings. This, coupled with a great reduction of postal rates, made from that time on valentines they lived their golden age. " (Taken from the network )
