Not everyone looks forward to Valentine’s Day. While many see February 14 as a day of love, many others see it as a painful reminder of a failed relationship.

Did he break your heart? Did she dump you for someone better looking? Do you wish you could put your ex through a shredder? Well, you can ... sort of.

This Valentine's Day, Red Door Tavern on Roswell Road invites you to bring a photo, letter or other shreddable memento (like his favorite concert T-shirt) and "Shred Your Ex" at the bar.
