There are many authors who florished valentines day among those Geoffrey Chaucer was the first to write an poem named romantic love which exclaims the love towards Valentine's Day.
The earliest surviving valentine is a 15th-century rondeau written by Charles duke of Orleans to his wife, which commences.
Je suis desja d'amour tanné
Ma tres doulce Valentinée...
— Charles d'Orléans, Rondeau VI, lines 1–2
At the time, the duke was being held in the Tower of london following his capture at the Battle of Agincourt 1415.
The earliest surviving valentines in English appear to be those in the paston letter, written in 1477 by Margery Brewes to her future husband John Paston "my right well-beloved Valentine".
Valentine's Day is mentioned ruefully by Ophelia in William Shakespeare's Hamlet (1600–1601):
To-morrow is Saint Valentine's day,
All in the morning betime,
And I a maid at your window,
To be your Valentine.
Then up he rose, and donn'd his clothes,
And dupp'd the chamber-door;
Let in the maid, that out a maid
Never departed more.
— William Shakespeare, Hamlet, Act IV, Scene 5
But also there are few countries which is against Valentine's Day and also they banned Valentine's Day since it is not an part of muslim tradition.
Pakistan is the latest country to ban Valentine's Day celebrations in public spaces after the country's High Court passed a ruling, saying it was against Islamic teachings, according to local media reports.
Local newspaper Dawn reported that print and electronic media have also been warned to "stop all Valentine's Day promotions immediately." Meanwhile, the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (Pemra) has been ordered to monitor all mediums and send out notifications banning any related promotions.

In the past, a number of Muslim-majority countries have imposed bans on Valentine's Day. In Malaysia, the National Muslim Youth Association released a document a day before Valentine's Day advising Muslim women against using emoticons in text messages, simplify conversation when private messaging and avoid wearing fragrance.
Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia too has joined the list of countries that have banned celebrating Valentine's Day. In the past, those wanting to celebrate found themselves buying roses from the black market for skyrocketing prices.
But the ban is not just limited to Muslim-majority countries. In the past, a number of political parties in India have criticized the concept of Valentine's Day with many saying it is a bad Western influence on Indian culture. An extremist Hindu organization called Bajrang Dal has issued a warning to Orissa, a state in the Eastern part of India asking youth to stay away from Valentine's Day in any form.
The activists of this organization have said that they would get young people married if caught celebrating Valentine's Day.
Any way even after all this problems we people never stopped the celebration of Valentine's Day
and i guess every people are waiting for the up coming Year to celebrate the lovable day.
