what did you do for your girl on vday?

[Dire91]

Hallmark Holiday

[IanS]

I bought my wife some lotion from Victoria Secret, $300 worth of jewlerey she didnt really need, and some random candy. I had to work today, so we hung out on Friday. Ate food, and watched Inglorious Bastards.

I hate going out to eat on Vday. All the restraunts are packed with couples half of whom are ignoring the fact that their relationships are crashing down around them

[zach-Ka]

zach-ka that hot pink sr valve cover is sweet dude

Thank you sir.

[Crazyirish]

My woman and I both hold the belief that valentines day is bs. We ended up babysitting a friend's kid so they could go out a do dinner and a movie.

[Sushibandito]

Total Hallmark Holiday. But I still get swept up in the BS. I am of the mindset that dinner out is lame, flowers are lame, and candy is lame. The only thing worth doing is something out of the ordinary.

No chick is gonna remember "Oh, ya back in 2010 we went to _____ restaurant and I had this great meal with candlelight blah blah blah". But they will remember something special and unique, that is entirely of your own creation, which doesn't mean home-made cards, but my ex decorated a bunch of Chinese take-out boxes with stuff like 69 Panda Express Dr (she was Asian) and made fortune cookies herself, they weren't very good, but the thought meant a lot more.

Last year for my now ex-gf I did the following...

...did you seriously put wine on ice? Unless that's reisling, you need to take a good hard look at your life and maybe consider... like... not.

I think all holidays are stupid, but Valentine's Day especially. I don't celebrate it myself. Any guy that I've ever dated knew about it. One year I got roses. While I said "thank you" for the thought.... there really wasn't any thought involved. Oh yes. Thank you for the flowers that every dude gets his girl on that ONE particular day. If he had known me better, he would have known that I hate roses, and would have opted for lilies, which are my favorite. THAT would have been the "thought that counted". Aimless buying of generic flowers is not "the thought that counts".

Anyway. So today I worked, came home to the boy, ate leftovers of the meatballs I made last night, took the dog for a stroll, got some sushi with a friend of ours, and he went to work. AKA just like every other day (I DID get him a card, only because it had naked references and thought it was funny). We show affection to each other everyday in much excess. No need to save it for any particular day.

We both have Tuesday off anyway

[cellardoorv]

OH. But it IS my car's birthday today. Bought him on Valentine's Day last year

Putting WHITE wine in a bucket of ice with a dash of salt is a faster way of cooling it down... because white wine is served chilled. Just... FYI.

Thank Jesus I'm going to be at work. I will warn the neighbors

[cellardoorv]

Dante started licking his arm/face the other night during the dirty. Pretty funny.

[troskinatior]

i bought him "man" candles for xmas, one that smells like new car the other like a garage/burning tires at the track. lol.

Really where can I find these? Those are my favorite smells in the world.

Only Chardonnay and Reisling are chilled. Everything else but the rarest of wines are served warmer than 55 degrees, ideal storage temp.

I found this nifty little stuffed pink dragon that had wings shaped like half a heart each so that from behind it (above if it could fly) you could see a heart.

Then I took her shopping (she bought clothes) and we went to Fudruckers.

And I get more money to spend on toys.

[flohtingPoint]

Nothing. I dont do holidays. I did cook a nice dinner tonight though, but I usually cook every night I'm home anyway.

[93coupe]

What's valentine's day? I don't celibrate holidays.

[audtatious]

My wife worked so I picked up a Valentines Day 1/2-sheet cake (white cake with butter cream icing....yum), had them put "Nurse's Rule" on it and delivered it to her work with a card. Card for her and the cake for everyone working in the unit. They all love me there so it was a win-win. One of them called me last night to wish me a happy Valentines day as well

[numbnuts240]

i cooked dinner, had some wine, and just enjoyed each others company for the night. simplicity with a dash of thoughtfulness goes a long way.

this is why you gotta get crafty when you get to prehistoric ages.

women are pack animals...catch one alone, you got an advantage in a fight...run into a pack and they'll tear you apart.

having all the other women on the floor gush about how sweet Matt is will allow him to reap great rewards later.

[DrifterXRPS13]

True dat. You never want to piss off those who are in the position to give you pain medication

My wife, being a nurse, will have that job when necessary.
