Valentin saw at the time of his life that many Romans were converting to Christianity. At that time Emperor Claudius was a pagan. He had strict laws for Christians about what they were allowed to do. Claudius wanted Roman soldiers to remain devoted to Rome. For this, he passed a law to prevent soldiers from marrying. Saint Valentine began to secretly marry these soldiers in Christian ceremonies.

How did Valentine’s Day develop?
Even after more than 200 years, February 14 was not declared St. Valentine’s Day. By that time Rome had become Christian. At that time the Catholic Church was determined to stamp out any remaining paganism. A pagan fertility ritual was held every year in February. The Pope abolished this festival. Then he announced 14 February as Saint Valentine’s Day. Thus the feast was established on the Catholic calendar of saints.
In the Middle Yuga, the poet Chaucer was the first to associate St. Valentine with romantic love. From here the tradition of courtly love started. Usually, it was a ritual to express love and admiration in secret. This custom spread throughout Europe. Many stories arose about a high court of love. Here women judges used to rule on issues related to love on 14 February every year. Historians believe that these meetings were actually meetings. Here people used to read love poems and play games of flirtation.
