Asukaru Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Didn't do much last year - just hung out with some friends who were also single at the local Dave and Buster's. Still had a pretty good time though. This year I have a date for Valentines, the first ever, so I have no idea what to expect.

Rummy3 Posted January 30, 2006 Author Share Posted January 30, 2006 Last year my valentine's day was pretty uneventful. I think girls fantasize about romance and if the man isn't in tune with it, it can become quite a let-down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenighs Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I'll be marking the day as I usually do, by wearing black, drinking heavily, and watching something romantic like Fatal Attraction or Monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Handed Jill Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Jack and I have developed a kind of tradition where we buy something for us in addition to something for each other (e.g. a pair of distinctive wine glasses.) Also, he goes out of his way to get me something that he knows I would really appreciate. Last year it was a small bookcase for the bedroom, since I had so many books piling up that didn't fit into the office and he knew I didn't want to put them into storage in the attic. As far as how we spend the day, that varies. I want to take us to see Great Big Sea - they are playing locally that evening and a few of us want to see them.

Jonathan Hawks Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Ta be honest, we never celebrate it. All it be is a day fer the damn sales people ta be makin money off others on cards, flowers, jewelry etc. Ya don't be needen a day ta be tellin ya ya loves someone. The best is ta be doin it on yer own all the other times. That be what I do. Just unexpectidly. Love ain't no one special day event. Specially when it be set down tellin ya this is the day. So, on Valentines day I aint doing Shyte. Just about 2 weeks ago, I stopped on me way home from work and gots me a small boquette o carnations ana few muffins fer breakfast. She didn't expect it. Thats a true day. I like doing things like that. Specially with this being me 30 years wit the lass come this June. Shoots anything that moves!!

Christine Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 It's on a Tuesday this year, during the week, so nothing will be happening for me. It's just another day. Perhaps I'll go play with the guyfriend that weekend before. Eh, who cares one way or another, it's a corny holiday. I'm with Jonathan, love shouldn't need to have a special day. Nor should it make you feel like crap if you don't buy stuff or do stuff for your lover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnycutlass Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Huzzah to Jon Hawks! Now that be the true way to a lasses heart! I got marry'd and it was the death o' me love... Sorry Merrydeath! I agrees wit Jon though, should be a year round, spur o' the moment, hop o'er a fence, pick a flower, stop by fer lunch, picnic basket, walk on the beach, doing the laundry, watching a football game, kiss on the cheek... whene'er ye wants to day!

Rummy3 Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 I'm totally into romance. If I denied it, I would be lying! I don't care if it's Valentine's day or any other day. I love thoughtful gestures like lighting a candle in the evening instead of turning on the tv. There's a novel thought~ I love Angel Trumpet Trees - does anyone even know what they are? My heart is touched by a smile - Valentines is just another opportunity to feel loved. As I grew up, my dad always came home with a card for my mom or some sweet gift - he would tell us kids something like, "She's the love of me life" and then they would kiss. Man, i had forgotten about those times. My folks are in their 80's and still I know they're in love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnycutlass Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 My apologies Rummy... I will nay say another bad thing about yer day of Romance....I loves ye and does naught mean to offend.

Asukaru Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Y'know, the more and more I think about it - the more I'd rather hang out at a pub with friends that night. Confessions of a Wicked Wench ~ Myspace! ~ Handlebars @ DeviantArt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendra The Sea Maid Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 My Dad tries to get my Mom and I a box of Chocolate. "For my two sweethearts." To be honest I kinda become "grumpy" I mean I do apperciate what my Dad dose for me, but lets face it its not romance. My idea of romance is a guy (pirate garb prefered. . .teasing, but it would be fun) brings me roses and we go out for lunch. Yes just lunch fellas, I am an old fashion sort of girl.

Red-Handed Jill Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Yeah, for lots of folks it's a manufactured, forced romance day. I guess it's all how you look at it. I'm of the opinion that everyone shouldn't be forced into the package that all those stores are trying to push people into. Everyone has their own way of letting their significant other know how much they are loved, and whether it is a dozen red roses and a heart-shaped box of candy or not, more power to 'em! I must admit to being a sucker for romantic gestures, though. And Valentine's Day is as good a day as any to show that special person know how much you love them.

Lady Alyx Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 It's a very sad day if you are alone......but alas this year I have a beau...yippeee....and I always like to give more than receive...I made my beau a little devil out of red felt (soft sculpture) he came out sooooo cute....(I even gave him manly parts..he he he). Me beau is a lil devil so I made him a little one....I plan on buying a little red foiled chocolate heart and setting it in the little devil's arms for my Valentine. Plus I bought him one of them fancy store cards as well. He gave me real french champagne for X-mas...perhaps we will crack that pupdog open and splurge and then the rest is shhhhhhh cannot tell here...he he he. ~~~~Sailing Westward Bound~~~~ Lady Alyx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diosa De Cancion Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 unless we can get a single violin to play an "I just had my heart ripped out' solo to go in the background as I read these posts.... I personally am amazed that one would drag so much of thier personal life out on a forum such as this... I try not to show people the knife wounds that have been put in my back in the past, and giving them the opportunity to add an extra blade or two..... (by the way.... saying "I personally don't care for you any more." right after a 7 line rant.... is a bit of a contradiction) Diosa De Cancion aka Mary Read www.iammaryread.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
