To ask if you didn't get anything for Valentines?

[Valdeeves]

Make me feel better that I'm not the only one - hubby doesn't do romance these days.

[AfricanExport]

Lol. Didn't expect anything. Didn't get anything . Wasn't disappointed

It's a hallmark occasion to take our money. No thanks.

[foofooyeah]

Nope, we don't do valentines day. Not a probem

[MrsGoslingWannabe]

Of course I didn't! Its all a load of shite. Just makes DP & I feel even crapper about our sorry relationship.

[Dededum]

Not me, but hate all that goey stuff -yech. DH made me and the boys dinner last night while I verged in the front room. Lovely.

[Foxsticks]

I didn't, we normally do cards and a small present but we have no spare money at all this month. I'm more worried about running out of Chocolate Fingers before payday than I am about V day though!

[canyou]

my DP is away with the Military I got told to go out and buy myself a card for today
He got a parcel posted 3 weeks ago of goodies and treats and a teddy bear. Lucky for him perfect me loves him and is willing to forgive him

[AreYouBlueOrAreYouBlind]

We don't do it, we celebrate our wedding anniversary later in the year instead.
It's not too bad as there's a couple of birthdays this weekend so lots of cake and nice food, just no romance element.

[Valdeeves]

I know - its not such a big deal to be fair and I'm not that fussed. We've got so much on there's just not enough time to really think about it x

[Hazelbrowneyes]

Nope!

Walked into work and saw a huge bouquet of flowers. I turned to DH and said "I take it X (employee) has bought these for his fiancee?"

I was right

We're going out for a meal later with 6 friends and only because we liked the menu.

We gave up on Valentine's Day a lonnnnng time ago.

[Sparklingbrook]

DH and I don't acknowledge the day at all. He knows I love him to bits. He is going out for a pint and a curry with his mates tonight-a leaving do.

[Freddiefrog]

No, I didn't get anything, but then we never really do valentine's day.

It would be nice if he surprised me with a bunch of flowers or something, but that's never going to happen

[WaffilyVersatile]

Nope. we never bother with it.

[makingdoo]

Nope. Normally get a card later in the day because I always give him one in the morning.

I did get coffee and toast in bed so alls not lost!

[Sallystyle]

Well we usually do but this year we said we weren't doing gifts or cards.

We are going to have a Marks and Spencers dine in for two meal and then watch a horror movie instead.

We usually get presents but then don't actually spend much time together but as the bigger children will be out tonight we changed it around.

[Sleepthief]

I always felt vaguely embarrassed on the rare occasions DH and I went out for a meal for Valentine's Day - the ultimate PDA

We were both very relieved when DS3 arrived on 14th February three years ago. Now it's all about the superheroes and over-excited sugared-up kids. And one of these years we'll be squeezing our six-strong family of noisy boys in between the lovers at our local Pizza Express, batman cake and all

[Anydrinkwilldo]

No getting settled in with 3w/o ds we didn't even realise it was today-whoops!

[worldgonecrazy]

DH and I pick each other a Valentine's Card, show it to the other person, then put it back on the rack for another mug person to buy. That way we get the sentiment without the cost.

[HungryHorace]

We are doing nothing to celebrate it.

We've sometimes cooked a special dinner and swapped cards, but we aren't bothering this year. Can't say I'm that bothered by it! :-)

[chanie44]

Nothing here, but then we both agreed not to bother. It's my DNs birthday today, so going forward Vday will be about him.

[sillymillyb]

I'm single so no loved one in my life. My best mates just sent me a text telling me he loves me and hopes I have a great day though

[nocheeseplease]

Nope, no presents or cards here either. We never do Valentine's Day it's a complete waste of money. Tonight will be the usual routine of helping kids with homework, tea, showers and bed for kids, soaps and a brew sat on the couch then bed for me. No romance whatsoever, just the way I like it!

[ChablisLover]

nope

Only a card here for DH - and thats a token as he views valentines day as a money making scheme for retailers

and a lovely homemade card from DS which is lovely and he made it himself and i love it - means more to me that all the roses etc in the world

[KiwiBanana]

To be honest we both totally forgot this year. I wrote DPs out on the back of an envelope and he ran out "to get some petrol" and came back with some nice biscuits.

There's so many other occasions to show someone you love them, valentines just doesn't have anything personal about it. It is a bit sad to not get anything if you were expecting something so I can't blame you for being a bit sad about it. If he is otherwise a good partner though just try and focus on that.

[MrsMangoBiscuit]

Happy Commercial Love Day!
Nothing here, not bothered in the slightest, total waste of money. I'd much rather DH made me a cup of tea and did the washing up while I got to sit down and drink my tea. That would be my ideal gift. Might text him and tell him that actually, he might remember, and I might get a cuppa.

[notso]

I think DH is turning soft in his old age.
After years of not bothering or him saying buy a box of Lindors and we'll share them he was a bit miffed this morning when he asked if I had got him anything and I said no but he hadn't got me anything either.
