uncivil war Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 A friend of mine has a birthday on Feb.14. He hates it. He always has to buy his girlfriend a gift and take her out for dinner on his own birthday. And he only ever gets the one gift from her. Usually something Valentine's themed.

Gracii Guns Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 My husband bought a bottle of champagne because it has our surname on the front. He's also bought me a card. Both these actions are far more effort than he's ever made before. I've got him a card and a chocolate heart-shaped lollipop so far. I really need to up my game now.I think he'll be cooking dinner, we don't want to go out on Valentine's day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlslash Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 It's not even a real holiday. Just a scam for retailers to make money between that slump between Christmas and Easter.It's an excuse for couples to fuck/spend time together. My excuse is "we like each other." No need to set a calendar date to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 We don't make a big deal out of Valentine's day.Any douche with a credit card and cell phone can have flowers sent to his spouse on VD. It always cracks me up to see how freaked out some women get on Valentine's Day because they got flowers or a box of candy and card. Wow, so your husband spent 30 seconds on the phone getting you flowers and spent $12 at the grocery store getting you candy and a mass produced card. Dang - how romantic. Send flowers to your wife's work, buy her a nice gift and take her out to dinner on a day she doesn't expect it - like July 12th - that's a nice thing to do. But being obligated to do something on a specific day - where is the romance in that? While I agree that there should be more thought and sentiment towards gifts on Valentine's Day, I don't agree with the "obligated to do something on this day" thing. That could apply to almost any holiday, especially gift-giving ones. That's why typically, I try to make things for people instead of just buying them some run of the mill gift or card. I like to give them something that they think "Wow, he actually thought about me and took the time to find something or make something just for me".I feel this way about Christmas and birthdays too. I don't want to get someone a gift because I'm obligated to, I want to get them a gift because I was thinking of them on some random day or saw something they'd enjoy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say the "card" industry has as much to do with VD being a special day as anything. I always chuckle at the women in my office or female friends on facebook that freak out because their loving husband sent them flowers on VD. So on a day that he pretty much HAD to send you something, your hubby whipped out his debit card and made a three minute phone call to a flower shop. Ya buddy, the romance gets no higher than that!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyDeeds Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 We both work on Valentine's Day, so we are celebrating a day early. I am taking her on a day trip a couple hours away to a beach on the Gulf Coast. While there, we will go to a rooftop revolving restaurant for lunch. We're both pretty broke right now after moving and only having just started working after graduation, so it's not much, but it will be a fun experience.

Graeme Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Last year, I spent the morning flying round an erupting volcano in a Cessna and the evening camping on said volcano with a large collective of beautiful women. Today, the most exciting thing I've done is watched spunko's video of the machine that eats everything.
