Valentines Day (Page 3)

Any advice to guys dating a tri girl- no flowers, tri gadgets are better

I agree.  Nothing sadder than some poor person sitting around just hoping and wishing that their SO would do something unexpected and wonderful for them on Valentine's day when it would never, EVER occur to them to do it any other time of the year.  If you have to bundle up all your hopes for overt expressions of love on one day of the year (or two - your birthday or three - your anniversary) then I would say your needs are definitely not being met in the relationship.  If they are, Valentines day is just another day in February that was a lot of fun back when you hoped that cute boy would put a "Be Mine" pepto bismol tasting candy heart in your cubby.

A new sofa for you and your spooning partner!

I'm going to do a Max here and take the fifth on what I ordered and where I ordered it from.  Other than that, I'm going to babysit while she gets pampered with a massage and facial. 

"When I was in college, my mom would send me 20 bucks and a some chocolate on Valentines Day. It's cool when parents do stuff for kids.  I kinda wish she'd still send me the 20 bucks, but, as she says, growing up's a bitch." ... by Chipmunkheart ...

The best part of growing up is when YOU start buying presents for your mom and/or dad.  I love to lavish gifts on my mom for Valentine's, Mother's Day, her birthday, Chritstmas and sometimes just because I love her.

I'm so jealous!!

I want to go to those concerts. Oh yea, congrats on the happy marriage thing.

BEAUTIFUL!

I am recently divorced. And not generally bitter--I save myself for the truly inspired moments, like above.

The last two V'days have been better than the previous seven I was with my ex. At least I know going in that anything I get will be from myself or someone I used to sleep with.

I will probably go to the gym. I am also doing my taxes tonight and thus on that day I am going to get myself a massage and a bunch of bulbs. And possibly some saucy toenail polish.

Of course, my son and I both have dentist appointments, which shows you what I really think of the day.

I also may take another solo friend to the cool local wine bar, but then we'd have to see all the couples. Blech. Nah. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course.

Im relieved Im going to be away in another city for Valentines Day - travelling for work sometimes has its advantages!!!

I know the boy would probably try to make an effort but we arent quite serious nad any extra attention always makes me feel really uncomfortable...

 Having said that he has alway wanted one of those Robosapien Robots to terrorise th other staff at work so Im contemplating getting one  of those delviered

Just in time:

Let's face it, getting lingerie and chocolates for Valentine's day is alright. But this year, why not treat your valentine to something they *really* want!

I think I came up with a good one.  My wife has never been interested in massages before due being a little self conscious but I noticed a flyer in her ob/gyn office when we went in for an ultrasound a few weeks ago.  They offer a pregnancy massage.  My wife's 7+ mos. preggers and I think she'll love it.  I just bought one for her and I'm going to arrange for someone to watch the kids so she can go next Friday and enjoy!

Woohoo!  I think I finally did one right! 

(beats the year I bought her a steam cleaner)

This is what my husband is getting me - I had better be a very good girl!
