February is the time of the year for us to spread the love. For others, it's opportune time to send mushy and corny text messages. But do you know this is also the most popular texting holiday of the year?

According to AT&T, Valentine's Day has recorded a 33% spike in SMS traffic last year to beat other popular holidays - Thanksgiving Day (21%), Christmas (30%) and the New Year's holiday (26%).

And in case you're in the mood for love and enjoy shorthand messages, here are some of the mushiest ones (warning: this may turn off some women or even men so use it carefully):
