Yes, I put white whine on ice, and I doubt it was Riesling, thinking back it might have been some crap Chardonnay from Trader Joe's. I didn't have much knowledge or appreciation for wine back then, but I do have the silver container, which is from the 30's, and I figure if I am gonna own an antique, better put it to some use. It looked pretty, which was my main motivator, not wondering if my gf was gonna walk in and say "There is no way in hell I am going to eat a meal prepared by a man that doesn't know the proper way to chill a $9 bottle of white wine".

But the advice helps, I have learned from last night that letting a $12 bottle of Sauvignon blanc sit around for a year in a your closet does not make for a tasty bottle. I am more into fine spirits ie drinking the hard stuff, I really like good tequila, like Cazadores.

what did you guys do for your gfs? anything? enlighten me.
Instead of getting myself a set of coilovers, I bought this for my wife.

The first purse she picked out went back, because it was too big. She picked this one instead.

Louis Vuitton Trocadero 27.

I am extremely glad to no longer be dating people with an obsession with name-brand merchandise. My ex got the following... A $700 Yorkie puppy for one Christmas, a pretty hot number from Victoria's Secret and a Tiffanys bracelet for another X-mas, multiple trips to Vancouver BC, and then the last trip was to Oahu 2 months before we broke up, bought her a $800 LV bag when we were there and she complained that she "deserved it after having to date me for 4 years". I do still use the Gucci wallet she gave me, that thing is the ish, even if the only compliments I have received have generally been from those "fancy" men.

I prefer the girls now with zero sense of entitlement, because those are the girls where it is actually fun to give them gifts, take trips, etc

Nice part is... My wife didn't expect it, nor does she feel she "deserves it". My wife is very frugal with money, and never gets herself anything, EVER. All the hard work she does, and she never sees any rewards. I knew it was something she would like to buy, but we couldn't normally afford. So I took my savings for a set of coilovers, and bought her the purse. The smile it gave her was worth every penny, and then some.

I only use Valentine's day as an excuse to buy things for my fiancee.

This year it was shoes.



We love each other every day...I don't need a special day to say I love you.

I must say, I do like V-day lingerie though...

LMAO!! That's what I did. I sat it on my 240's roof in the garage and told her to check out what I did to my car. She was convinced that I had totally forgot what day it was because I had a 24 hour post the day before.

Nothing I dont do most other days of the year. I don't need some silly tradition/holiday to remind me my wife is important enough to receive love. She gets great treatment every day. And In return I get win and awesome.

i think its really freaking awesome the stuff you guys did for your girls on vday.

sorry for my vent but i was (and still am) pissed that my bf didnt get me anything nor plan anything for vday other than for him to watch NASCAR and play Call of Duty.

i dont need the stupid holiday, and i definitely dont need anything material, but it would be nice to receive some attention and a home cooked meal at least, especially when i treat him like a king each and everyday and go out of my way to do things for him and show him affection and make him the happiest he could be, every god damn day---and he cannot say that he does the same for me.

i also love u guys who say that you treat your other awesomely on everyday other than vday. thats also something i wish i could have my guy say/do.

wasted my time and my effort and my money. ugh.

anywhoo...will just go back to spending all of my time and money on my car and see how he likes that, i guess. my car might appreciate it more.

NSFW btw

My wife and I have the same tradition every year, we send the kids to bed and have a candlelight dinner at 9 or 10pm by ourselves. I usually try to cook something more extravagant than I normally do. This year it was braised veal chops with basil garlic sauce next to grilled asparagus and artichoke hearts with lemon butter.
