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.

Suppose the cats might bring me a small dead thing...

No, nothing. I asked Dh if we were doing cards/gifts & he said fuck off. Which is what I would have said to him too. Load if old shite. Will have some fizzy wine tonight tho (any excuse)

for me, today is the third anniversary of starting to miscarry.

We don't do valentines day.

nowt here, barely on speaking terms today anyway

weird one for me today i have only been with my boyfriend (hate that word at my age) for 4 weeks, so when i tried to get a neutral but nice valentines card i couldnt they all had i love you all over them, deffo not appropiate, but he is taking me for a meal in our favourite italian tonight as hes working today, i still dont feel comfy totally with even this as the valentines meal is double the price of their normal menu, i might look at the a la carte instead

We always do it and last year I got a weekend in Venice! We love each other to bits all year round but it's still nice to show appreciation isn't it? This year we're a bit more skint but DH still produced a bag full of gorgeous smellies for me to pamper myself with. And a card with a heartfelt message. Yes it's a commercial day but so what? It's nice to tell someone you love them. I should add that we've only been together five years so maybe that's why! Ha!

My DH got me the best present ever..he finally forgot about Valentines Day

No overpriced chocolates, smaltzy vomit-inducing card, flowers that'll be dead in a few days or other guff that I neither need nor want.

YAY DH!

Nothing. for 13 years I have had nothing, its all "i wont be told when to buy flowers.. blah blah blah" (funny how he never buys me flowers) and then last year he came home from work with a rose for me. I was very

But then he let slip that his dad had seen him buying the rose in Tesco so then i was all that he was buying it for someone else but gave it to me incase his dad said something to me.

Wouldnt put it past him to be honest.

By mutual and pre-planned agreement, no gifts/cards/chocolate here. Will have wine and hugs later.

Nope no cards here either. We have a nice meal, and couples time ;)

Some of my fb freinds have recived loads. Makes me think they are lacking somehow.

No we don't do it - it's a con for kids

Dh cleaned upstairs while i made dinner last night - that's enough for me!

we totally forgot one year and we'd been painting the bedroom. Fell into the local curry house covered in emulsion...couldn't work out why it was so busy....and all couples....and decorated tables...oh wait....

Flowers just arrived....for the woman next door.

Hope her baby of a similar age to mine keeps her up all night while mine is fast asleep.

One of my FB friends posted a picture of the bunch of 100 red roses her DH bought her, I hope she has a few vases

Nope, a load of rubbish. I am going out with friends tonight. We did go out for a lovely meal last night though.

We don't do Valentine's Day either. Way too schmaltzy! We're more 'The War of the Roses' www.empireonline.com/images/uploaded/52146120.jpg

We are having a nice meal, though.

Not yet.

I might get something, I might not. No big deal. My husband is pretty good at being thoughtful the rest of the year so there is no expectation on 14th Feb.

I gave DH a homemade card. I made it yesterday from an old cereal box, newspaper and the kids' paints.

smoothie, your post properly made me have tears. In a good way!

We had a conversation last night along the lines:

• err did you realise its v day tomorrow?
• Oh jeez is it? I'd forgotten.
• So had I!
• Nevermind are we going to get the decorating done this weekend?
• mumble mumble hopefully
• oh good love you!

we are so romantic!

We do it because its a good day to put in the diary, get babysitting from my mum and go out for once. Going for a meal and then on to the pub. Mind you, its pissing gallons outside and is dark and freezing, so may end up having an early night and watching Breakind Bad on Netflix shagging loads instead

I got a handmade card from each of the dd's and a snog off dh.

I don't go for all the consumerist crap around valentines.

Nowt but I am single.

However, exH forgot to get anything for his new girlfriend......watch the sparks fly. Cannot believe he forgot.....

We don't really 'do' anything - we tend to have a sightly nicer meal in and have a nice pudding (some lovely deli cheesecake or something) and do give a small cheap card. But after xmas, our wedding anniversary in Jan and my b-day beginning Feb, we are fatigued with 'speshulness'. I wish we could spread the dates out throughout the year.

However, this morning we just had a humdinger of a row and DH is out with work tonight (not what the argument was about btw). So will have a dine in for a tenner dinner tomo - not that nice i know. But all we can manage atm.

I bought myself a Tiffany charm...dh never offered to reimburse!! I love myself so happy Valentines to me! Sod him, he got a card.

We don't normally do Valentines day - DH and I are of the mind that we have our wedding anniversary, and that is "our" day. However this year was going to be an exception, as our last wedding anniversary was a week or so after the arrival of DD, so we had other things on our mind like sleep deprivation and how to get breastmilk out of the sofa

I got him his fave choccys, a book I knew he really wanted and some posh tea, the same type as we had in a fancy tearoom on or honeymoon.

He didn't get me anything, nor is he cooking anything scrummy
