Valentine's Crap???

[bRaTpRiNcEsS]

Anybody doing anything today??

My son got my a teddy bear, but I can only have it if I let him play with it. I also got a balloon, but the same rules apply. Go figure.

No plans tonight, since no one gets off work for it. And if you don't see me post for a while, it's because a flower delivery guy came to my door, and I passed out and my son can't dial 911 yet.

I will be spending time with my girl Deatte. I have to go buy some flowers or something. What would you recommend I buy her? Thought you might have a good idea.

 

[bRaTpRiNcEsS]

Depends on the girl.

Flowers, a bear, balloon, card...One year I got a gorilla cause I told him I was tired of bears. Some girls like candy, I'm not one of them but it works for some girls. Anything that says I Love You on it, more than Happy Valentine's Day (cause remember today is only one day, you want her for more than a day right??). Try not to make her cook, that would be gift enough for me! LOL Guys always think it's about how much they spend and it's not. Just do something that lets her know you're THINKING about her. Girls like to know that guys are thinking at all.

Oh and here's another tip (for all guys): If you're not real big on flowers and bears, don't get her too hooked on them in the beginning, because when you stop, she's gonna notice and wonder what the hell your problem is. For instance, I haven't gotten flowers in like two years, I used to get them every vday and bday. I also used to get those circle K roses at least twice a week and that stopped a long ass time ago. I'd rather have not gotten them at all than to get used to them and have them taken away. So avoid yourself the nagging of "you never get me flowers anymore" by not even starting!!

Actually, that's fairly close to what I was thinking. But thank you for the verification. Most men know that this is a day that must be perfect and I thought that some last minute instructions couldn't hurt. Funny thing is that I usually cook, so I think we'll go out to dinner tonight. But these are all great tips, thanx bRaTpRiNcEsS!

I shall choose to ignore this "special" day nothing but a marketing ploy. Its bad enough having to buy girls stuff at christmas and bdays without this as well. And what about the poor unfortunates who aren't all loved up its like mocking the afflicted. hey card companies why not make feb 15th sad lonley bastard day when all couples can send a card and mock people in the streets who are single. My advice for any males here is to not send anything or do anything just take your girl by the hand, kiss her passionatly and tell her no amount of tacky crap will mean you love her more.
I am single at the moment myself but noone can accuse me of being bitter, oh that will be the microwave with my meal for one in it stupid day and not one card can you believe it a looker like me and not one card grumble moan

 

[bRaTpRiNcEsS]

Actually I agree. It seems as though it's like telling people you can be an asshole all year long as long as you spend a shitload of money on stuff (that won't mean anything the next day) on this one Feb 14. I don't want it recognized for the fact that it's a holiday, but it's an anniversary for me, THAT's what I care about. If it was say, Feb 28, I'd want the same recognition. And I've never expected jewelry or anything huge like that.

I took the day off work so I could open the mountain of cards I was expecting. None came (damn post must be late) so I'll spend tonight alone (again).

 

[bRaTpRiNcEsS]

Remember back in like third grade when you would get a little Valentine from like every kid you knew? You'd get home with a whole pile and be all proud of yourself, and then eat those conversation hearts until you puked up pastel vomit. Those were the days.

 

[one man stands]

Ahhh! To bring those days back

Because the girlfriend and I broke up a while ago:

I picked up my date for tonight at Best Buy (Super Mario World GBA).
I'm gonna have left overs. Then rosy palm and I can watch some romantic DVD porn.

 

[Jono]

well if you why not rub it in hallmarks face and buy REAL gifts instead of a shitty card or flowers or candy. I'm getting my fiance something, of coarse I get a 30% discount because I work there but it's the thought that counts right?
-Jono-

 

[Edtheripper]

I too am single and alone. Was expecting at least 1 card today but got none So I sit alone in front of my computer waiting for someone ot come online and show me some loving. The Porn DVDs sound like a good idea though...

 

[bRaTpRiNcEsS]

Men and porn go together like peanut butter and jelly??

 

[vomit]

Well, well, well, V-Day is here. First time since '98 that I am solo. My wife filed for divorce a month ago---isn't marriage grand??
Oh well, I am consoling myself with lots & lots of "White Noise", "Stomp", "Volume 8" and a great deal of bitterness.

Maybe I'll just get shitfaced and puke---now that sounds like fun!!

 

[Jeffasin]

Do you know why divorce cost so much?


'Cause it's worth it......

valentine's day is a goddam hallmark holiday...if two people love each other, they shouldn't need a stupid calendar to tell them when they need to get romantic, buy stuff for each other and go out on a date....
just an opinion
