Answer 1

C/Python Polyglot/Polygamist

Monogamy isn't for everyone.
Based on my answer to Execute Prints Backwards.

#define def main(){0?
#define print printf(
#define return 0)));}

def main():
    print "Python",
    print ", I love you much more than ",
    print "C",
    return

main();

Output, when run as C:

C, I love you much more than Python

Output, when run as Python:

Python , I love you much more than  C

Answer 2

JavaScript (ES6)

Pretty version:

           r=/c/g         ,n='\n'
       ,m=/.\d+/g,[,    ,'ca','8b',5,
     'a10b',6,'ca3b',  13,'a4b',1,3,'c'
    ,'a1b',16,'a2b1',5,'cb35cb',35,'ca',
    ,'1b7 JS b',22,'ca2b',31,'ca3b',29,
     ,'ca',5,'b',25,'ca7b',2,1,'ca',9,
      ,'b','17ca',11,'b13ca',14,'b',
       '7c','a1',7,'b1c'].join('').
         replace(m, c=>(c[0]!='a'?
           '\u2665':' ').repeat
              (+c.substr(1))).
                 replace(r,
                     n);

Console output:

PHP

Why overcomplicate, when you can do simplest thing that works?

Program:

I ♥ PHP!

Output:

I ♥ PHP!

Answer 6

BASH

What is better than to SSH to your wifeys/husbands machine and then let her NIC do the fun part of flashing morse code for "Happy Valentines Day" for your favourite scripting language I am sure you've nearly all started with - BASH? And as we Geeks all know - you should always have an eye on your machine's NIC ;)

#!/bin/bash

#.... .- .--. .--. -.-- ...- .- .-.. . -. - .. -. . ... -.. .- -.--
#1111 12 1221 1221 2122 1112 12 1211 1 21 2 11 21 1 111 211 12 2122

while IFS= read -r -n1 char
do
    ethtool eth0 p$char
done < morse

Of course "morse" contains the morse code "translated" to numbers:

111131231221312213212231112312312113132132311321313111321131232122

'1' is short, '2' is long and '3' is space. Obviously the obligatory 'ethtool' should be installed. If not, then do your spouse the favour of doing so.

Answer 7

BASIC

Just because we all wrote one of these once, and this is really the only style that truly expresses this language's simple honest heart.

10 PRINT "HAPPY VALENTINES DAY BASIC"
20 GOTO 10

Answer 8

Mathematica

ContourPlot3D[(2 x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - 1)^3 - (1/10) x^2 z^3 - y^2 z^3 == 
  0, {x, -1.5, 1.5}, {y, -1.5, 1.5}, {z, -1.5, 1.5}, Mesh -> None, 
 ContourStyle -> Opacity[0.8, Red]]

That's Taubin's heart surface. Yes, I realize the challenge asks for ASCII art. However, if you're going to downvote it, don't do so because it's excessively beautiful, do it because I stole the code from https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/12098/drawing-heart-in-mathematica

Just for the sake of interest, the character count is 865.

Answer 10

Python

Remember when people didn't have computers for Valentines and had to etch their lovelife on trees? That's what I'm doing:

def valentine(person1,person2):
    leading_whitespace = range(0,4)[::-1] +[0]+range(0,8)
    inside = [3,5,14,14]+range(0,15)[::-1][::2]
    layers = ["  ___    ___",r" /   \  /   \ ",r'/     \/     \ ','|             |']
    for i in range(5,12):
        layers.append(' ' * leading_whitespace[i] + '\\' + ' ' * inside[i] + '/')
    #inserts person1 into layers[4]
    temp = []
    for char in layers[3]: temp.append(char)
    temp[1:len(person1)+1] = person1
    layers[3] = ''.join(temp)

    temp = []
    layers[4] = '|      +     |'

    # do that again for person2
    for char in layers[5]: temp.append(char)
    temp[-len(person2)-1:-1] = person2
    layers[5] = ''.join(temp)

    print '\n'.join(layers)

valentine('Me','Python')

Note: the first values of the inside variable are hard-coded. Output:

  ___    ___
 /   \  /   \ 
/     \/     \ 
|Me           |
|      +     |
 \    Python/
  \        /
   \      /
    \    /
     \  /
      \/
