atalbot01 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Its the day of the year that reminds me that it is my Wife's birthday the day before.....!!! She always says that she thinks Valentines is a waste of time and that I shouldnt bother... but as yet I havent tested the theory....!!! I always buy her a card or something though!! I bought her roses one year on her birthday... spent about £30 or so... then I popped into the same florist the following day to get her some more (thought it would get some serious brownie points)... only to find that the same florist was going to charge me an additional £10 for the same amount of roses... robbing bastards!!!

villamark Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I am at the Wales vs England game on valentines day with work, the other half is going with friends so I have bought her a hip flask from Links of London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrissmith921 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I am at the Wales vs England game on valentines day with work, the other half is going with friends so I have bought her a hip flask from Links of London. Also at the game, with the misses. So thats her present. She always harps about going to this game and me never missing playing football on a Saturday to see her - so thats both those things at once. She cant complain now for a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidlewis Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I think it's the one day per year that I definitley don't do anything special for the missus - it always feels too contrived. Not knocking anyone that does - it's just not for us. Seconded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witton_Lane Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 get home from a goling trip in florida on V-day so i will have a full sack for the wife Get a couple of prostitutes on the last night of your trip, empty your sack everywhere and that way you'll last a lot longer for the wife. Show some consideration for **** sake I always view Valentines day as an opportunity to wind people up myself, especially fat women. Maybe I'm missing the point?

mjmooney Posted January 21, 2009 VT Supporter Share Posted January 21, 2009 Last Valentines day I kissed her first. Really? Ooohhh, I LOVE that.Thing is, how do you know which is her first and which is her second? I always call them "left" and "right". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted January 21, 2009 Moderator Share Posted January 21, 2009 A day for people who are a bit insecure really. It panders to commercialism by trying to guilt trip people into bying shit under the false notion of being romantic. Why on earth should you have to be romantic on a specific day of the year? Its also far cheaper to be romantic a week later as the prices of flowers have dropped again, you don't have to buy a card because no one makes cards for Feb 21st. Basically its a load of old monkey gism. Can't stand it if I'm honest. Me and the missus both agree and have never bothered with it ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFCLaura Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 I don't really agree with the whole 'why should you have to be romantic on a specific day of the year' argument. For me, It's another day of the year where you have a lovely excuse to show someone how much you love them. It doesn't mean for the other 364 days you aren't 'allowed' to be romantic. And romance for everyone isn't spending 30 quid on a bunch of flowers, it's something that means a great deal to your partner, no matter how big or how small. I think, like Christmas, it's what it means to you and what you make of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheltenham_villa Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I LOVE VALENTINES DAY. i understand all the arguments not to do it but the truth is i like presents, nice meals and sex. its a good excuse to stop all the things your doing and make your partner feel special. I also hate the thought of my fiance having nothing to tell her friends when discussing valentines day. its important to her and making her happy is important to me. like people have said, its doesnt have to be expensive and if your partners dont expect it, then it can be worth twice as much.

Yeh but most of the girls will have boasting rights on V day Laura, but what better bragging rights than on a random day in March getting a delivery of flowers arrives at work for no other reason than your fella showing he was thinking about you without the prompt of V day. Never on V day have i had the response from getting flowers that i get for doing it on a random day. Christmas is a bit different but i always choose things to do to make it feel like Christmas including "nutcracker suite ballet at the hippodrome" Going to the oldest cinema in the UK to see "its a wonderfull life" the day before xmas eve and before going out on xmas eve going to carol singing by candlelight at Aston Parish church by the Villa. Bicks is spot on as i get no pleasure thinking of the card manufacturers rubbing their hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b23avfc Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I won't be interested even vaguely. I agree with the you don't need a reason to be romantic on a specific day. You do need someone that will welcome it tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
