I am getting a little worried here

[baddog]

I was reading undermyspell's thread about her friend that wanted to know what to get some chick for Valentine's Day, and I was surprised at how many people here actually fall for that crap.

So, I ask, how many of you guys are planning on buying VD presents, or taking that special someone out to dinner? And how many of you chicks are thinking "he sure the hell better get me something?"

[GonePhishing]

I was planning something special. Maybe not a huge production, but just something simple, relaxing, and nice.

[cluck]

I know I sure as hell better get her something. Just like every month I get her something for our "anniversary". I'm out of fucking ideas and sick of it. I said we should stop exchanging gifts after 6 months, she said after a year we'll celebrate it yearly.

She's a good sport and will accept large orders of sex toys though, bad part is we've already got everything short of a strap on so she can do me and those rubber fists and feet. Not going there.

It is so nice to be single and not have to worry about that. I have a girlfriend (my best friend) and that is the only person I have to buy for!

[Fluid of Fuck Me]

zippo, none, nadda here
I might go give a certain someone the old protien pickup, might even be romantic and not call it that, but there will be no gift other then well...ya know

[detoxed]

VD presents... lol sounds wrong

why do you have to buy for her? that is such bullshit! It isn't a holiday like Christmas, or her birthday . . . . and what is up with this monthly "anniversary" crap?

Anniversary, by definition is yearly, that would be once a year.

only the ones that are PW'ed. This is not to say that at one time in my life I wasn't whipped, but I present this as a PSA, don't let Hallmark trap you into some guilt trip that you feel obligated to give a present for VD.

Hell, I think Groundhog's Day is a better holiday.

Yeah, our "monthly anniversary" falls on groudhog day this month so I'll be buying something else for that day.

The most ridiculous thing was when christmas, her birthday and our "anniversary" were all in the same week. It's not the money that bothers me, it's the shopping. DAMN.

[SleazyDream]

last year I went into the local flower shop to get some flowers for the wife. they were dealing with 4 guys at the same time. the shop lady asked me if i wanted one dozen or two dozen roses. she had all the other guys on the same hook - outdoing each other.

i told her I wanted ONE ROSE. the guys all looked at me and laughed.

I smiled and told them I havn't bought her flowers in years and I'll get laid with one or 50 flowers - so why buy the other 49?


the other 4 guys stopped and thought about it - and all bought one rose each too. the flower lady wanted to kill me.


I got laid that night.

if you end up staying with her, you are always going to have to keep it up, or she will start giving you a hard time with the "how come you never (insert action here) anymore.

Gotta break her early dude.

[PurrrsianPussyKat]

I think when you spend a long time with someone.. and you live together, have daily grind + house + kids, its nice to have a day a year where you can stop and remember why you're with that person. What about them is special to you, why you love them, etc. It isn't so much about the gift, it's about the celebration of loving each other.

[beemk]

fuck that, im getting anyone gifts

[wdsguy]

I am gettin her a gift or I ain't gettin ass :-(

Why? I don't see anything to worry about.



And valentine's day is a 2-way street. These chicks that think they get to sit back and enjoy a second birthday need a wet-fish-slap wakeup call in the face. If you're going to celebrate it, at least buy your man something too. Don't be cheap bitches. Same with you guys, IF you're going to do the valentines thing do it right for fuck sakes. Be a little original and romantic.

[ModelPerfect]

I got dumped, so I don't have to worry about it.

[Holly]

Oh my god, I would be crushed if my husband/bf/so didn't even acknowledge me on Valentine's Day. Commercial or not, that's the universal day here to remember the person you care about. Doesn't even have to be a present, but I think it would be horrible not to do anything for your sweetheart. As a matter of fact, about the best thing I could think of would be a handwritten letter on good stationary and sent through the mail. I love crap like that.

Of course flowers, jewelry, dinner, etc. would do if you can't write.

[WiredGuy]

I like doing it, if you know me, you'd know its part of my personality. I like being romantic.

I didn't say there was a him. But of course I'd do something. And I'd enjoy it. I wasn't meaning it should be one way.

[laura99]

Valentine's Day has been around forever. That Sweetest Day thing, that is a Hallmark holiday for sure. I expect SOMETHING on that day. I'm not expecting jewelry or anything expensive, a simple gesture would make me happy. My hubby wrote me a poem once and I'll never forget it, stuff like that is what I want.

[myjah]

I'm a chick and I'm definitely thinking he better get me something. Don't really give a shit what it is, it just better be something.

[baddog]

this is why I always break up with them around Thanksgiving, and then hook up around Memorial Day

Will you be my Valentine?

Cheap ass

[laura99]

baddog, you could always get her a half of a grilled cheese sandwich by candl....no wait, flashlight ;)

[Raven]

Valentine's Day, like so many other days, piss me off to no end..that, and Mother's day and Father's day...

Give me a break.

These are commercial holidays....

Guys are not so stupid that they can't pick out a day, more often than once a year, I should hope...to do something special for their lady...and, the same principle applies to girls, too.

Are we so neglecting of our significant others, that, we actually NEED a day assigned, like so much homework?

My honey and I adore each other every day. We do special things for each other and have for nine years. Every day is Valentine's Day for us...and sometimes, the gift is bringing me aspirin when I have a headache...or me washing his back in the shower....THAT'S special.

It's a bonus if their birthday falls in between those months

you are just being a mother. I have a feeling you don't wait around for some guy to give you a VD present, or get pissed if he doesn't.

Couldn't agree more... it is much easier to pick only one day and buy something...

thanks for rubbing that in

[HS-Trixxxia]

When I was younger and didn't have a boyfriend/husband Valentine's Day seemed so..... Lovey and I was miserable if I wasn't with someone. Boyfriend, husband(s), marriage, kids made me realize that any moment (if you get one) where you can steal a kiss or let your juices flow without interruption is better than any 'allocated' day by marketing geniuses. A good drink & giggle in bed before a good romp beats a superficial 'day' for me.
My husband does everything for me......never complains about it either - plus he has to deal with my character too......if that's not 'LOVE' plastered on his heart with a cherub.......I don't know what love is. I'd rather him showing me his love and affection in this way, than buying me something that I don't necessarily need and being inconsiderate with me for the next 364 days of the year.

[EZRhino]

Feb 14th is just another day for me.

[RockDaddy]

My wife goes shopping, finds what she wants then calls to ask if she can get it. I love it, I hate shopping.

see? you blew your chance. you're SUPPOSED to say:

"oh no, titmowse! how can that be? you are such a lovely and seductive woman. i can't believe you don't have a valentine!"

[undermyspell]

I'm not huge on getting presents although i'm really big on giving them. For me though I would love to have a cup of coffee in bed, my hair brushed for me, or just something thoughful ANY day of the year not just on Valentine's day. This friend just wanted to give something to a special persona because she hasn't experienced the "specialness" of valentines day in a long time. One of the best gifts I ever got was a domain name registered and a site designed for that domain and the URL sent to me as the signature to a beautiful poem.

I agree 100% with you.

I also agree with Holly...it's a day to show appreciation to the one you like/love/lust...

Ever wonder why some of these dudes are single?? I am sure that it's not by choice for some of them....

[Tera]

I am considerate and loving to my boyfriend all year long, as likewise with him for me, doing the little things, suprises and flowers for nothing, or even just a night at home with a movie.

But, I also enjoy Valentines Day for no reason really, just because I can, so I choose to. It doesn't have to be anything big, but a nice dinner, and an evening alone is all that really matters.

And I do get the boyfriend a present as well ..

It's fun, you over analyze something like this and whats the point? It's just another damn day.. why not spruce it up and make it Valentines Day just for the hell of it.
