Na i am good. Wife loves sex without being pregnant, and she is 24 weeks pregnant, so she pretty much isn't leaving me alone.
I love Valentine's Day because I'm a huge cheeseball. The girl is anti V-Day because she dated a guy who messed it up on and off for 4 years. This time it will be fun. It'll be a nice 4 day weekend, as I'm taking Friday off. It will be a great time. I always find it interesting when people say "Oh well people should be doing little special things all the time." But most of the time they don't, they settle. They get comfortable, they don't do little special things all the time. This day gives them time to make-up for it. I haven't had a reason to celebrate every single Valentine's Day, but the ones I have, things have gone without a problem, had some good dinner, wine, chocolate and then amazing sex. It keeps the florists, chocolatiers, and restaurant businesses humming, so no big deal. People raging against this day or any other holiday are a little silly. Don't hate the day because you dated someone who botched it or never had someone to celebrate it with. But anyway, back to these threesomes...
Get the fuck outta here. Mine too. Here's how shitty V-day has been to me in the past. I have never gotten laid on Valentine's day (which is my birthday). I have been dumped, twice, on Valentine's day (WHICH IS MY BIRTHDAY. Cold hearted bitches). I broke the living shit out of my ankle boarding a Somali Pirate (some of you will remember the pictures) on my birthday. I went 23 years without a birthday party. I went bowling with kids from my new school in 3rd grade, and then last year I got everyone to come out for a combined birthday party for me, another guy at work born on V-Day, and a guy who's birthday is the ninth. Basically V-Day sucks a dick.
I love romance, but my hubby always lets me down on Valentine's Day. I'm sure he'll get the standard chocolates and flower and card or whatever, but I've been hinting that I'd really like some new diamond jewelry. I want a marquise set necklace to match my ring. If he gets me something worth it like this, he's totally getting lucky later that night *wink*!!! I got some totally hawt red Victoria Secret lingerie on sale at the mall, with matching maribu kitten heels. Meow!!!!
Don't take this the wrong way, but instead of hinting, why don't you just tell him what the hell you want. Men don't turn into mind readers just because its February.
Thank god there are women who think this is weird. I was just about to make a noose from my shoelaces and hang myself thinking that this is what I had to look forward to.
The boyfriend's birthday is also Valentine's day so I prefer to make it more about that than V-day. I've suggested not doing Valentine's but he actually likes it so I oblige. I bought him a bunch of awesome/hilarious presents and need to see if I can make some last-minute reservations somewhere. I'm also going to bake a cake and wear some new lingerie.
Boyfriend and I celebrated Valentine's Day last weekend. The day is arbitrary, but since we don't go out on many proper dates together we used it as an excuse to go out for dinner and a movie and drinks, which was really nice. I bought him a little space heater for under his desk so he doesn't come to bed with freezing cold feet, and he got me (us) a new set of sheets. Not the most romantic presents, but we're broke kids and as a general rule we get each other practical gifts. Thursday night we're planning to cook dinner together then snuggle up for a movie, which are two of my favorite activities. I kind of prefer spending Valentine's Day in, where I don't have to worry about acceptable behavior or wearing clothes.
The combination (women calling their significant others daddy) actually strikes me as the weirdest. But then again, I'm not from West Virginia.
I guess that comes from telling your kids to go as your father.....go ask your daddy.....to just calling your husband daddy? It's still creepy though. I would rather call him my old man before I stoop to daddy or hubby.
I like doing a little something to recognize almost every holiday, and when done right Valentine's Day is an excuse for a lot of things that I like to do anyway. This might be weird, but I've always enjoyed my Valentine's Day celebrations when I'm single more than the ones I've had while with someone. Ever since Middle School, I've gotten together with some friends, we bake a whole bunch of stuff, and then watch a couple of romantic movies (and then we started throwing champagne into the mix once we were, you know, not in Middle School). As long as no one starts crying about being single, it's a grand ol' time. I haven't been in a relationship for Valentine's Day in a few years, but the last one I got diamond earrings, so I really have no reason to complain about the holiday. (I drew him a comic book, which my roommate puked all over when she got raging drunk a few nights before. I cleaned it up and put some decorative paper over the back cover to hide the stain as if it was my plan all along. NOBODY TELL HIM.)
Just another 24 hour period someone designated as an opportunity for a few industries to slip their hands into my wallet. That being said, I'm on the hook for at least 3 cards ($15 right there) and 3 boxes of chocolates (another $60). Now, we're supposed to drive down to Austin that day for Family Weekend at my daughter's school, but I may not go, depending on my knee in which case, I'll end up taking my youngest daughter out to dinner, where I'll get all sorts of disapproving looks as people make the assumption she isn't my daughter. Come to think of it, maybe we'll do that and my daughter and I will play it up in the restaurant. She's got the mischievous mind and would get a kick out of pulling a stunt like that. Or will just order in a pizza.
I agree. Last week I asked my girlfriend if we *had* to do something on the 14th and got a solid eye roll back. So, while she isn't requesting diamonds or other dumb shit like that, she is requesting we have nice dinner together with sex before/during/after. I'm on board with that. Rather than spend a ton on a meal in an overpriced, packed restaurant I'm going to pick up crab legs, lobster tails, and a nice ribeye, and thaw out one of my venison steaks so we can have a super surf 'n turf with a bottle of wine to ourselves. We've been talking about doing a meal like that for awhile (and I've actually been looking forward to it), so maybe this year's V-day won't be so bad.
