Though your heartache may feel brand new, Valentine's Day has been around for quite some time. It wasn't always a huge commercial holiday, but that's nothing recent either, as you'll see with these vintage Valentine's Day cards. When you see these cards, you'll alternate between cracking up and scratching your head. What were our grandparents thinking?

Who can help themselves from falling for someone who robbed them at gunpoint?

Um, maybe don't call it that.
17
If it's no accident, then it's manslaughter.
18
Cool! I'll be hiding underneath my bed.
19
I don't think I can trust you. Also, you're a wolf.

Sure, anything you want-just don't shoot.
21
Your eyes are brown like the harsh tobacco I inhale two packs of every day.
23
What could possibly go wrong with kittens?

That thing better be made out of chocolate.
