Aibu to ask what you got for Valentines day?

[3Daddy31982]

I got a lobster biscuits and multicoloured rose, bunch of red roses in a vase, a valentines day balloon, a balloon that's red and says love. Also Indian tea x

Nothing (dating exclusively). I’m delighted as I didn’t get him anything either. We’re still feeling our way and once you start all that nonsense stopping is a real issue!

Nothing. It's for teenagers.

Daffodils and a piece of art. DH got (vairy posh) chocolates and a book of poetry. Any excuse to buy presents basically.

A lovely card and two books I’ve had my eye on. I painted him a card but didn’t get him anything.

A bunch of flowers and a card. Having Indian takeout and wine tonight.

Nothing. I'm single so I got naff all.

24 red roses with a lovely card been together 15 years he still makes the effort even if I say no.

A sketched card by DH as he is an Architect and is very good at drawing. A lovely bunch of flowers and some a particular make of face masks that I like and a generous box of champagne truffles from a local chocolatier(?).

A chocolate rose from one of the 5 year olds in my class.

Oh and he cooked me a lovely dinner last night as he is away with work today.

Flowers, champagne, chocolate and he’s cooking dinner.

He came home from Tesco yesterday with lots of flowers 🌺

Nothing, an agreement between us that it is commercial rubbish :) we do get each other nice bits through the year when we see something we think the other would like though! Just not on a specified day and not really balloons that deflate or flowers that die, more likely something we notice is near running out for the other, fave food/drinks or wee clothing items that will get use

Nothing but I have nothing either 🤣

Most holidays are commercial rubbish but any excuse for chocolates and presents is fine by me!

gave

Wine, box of chocolates, and hand picked pamper items, my fav hair masks and face masks also cooking me dinner tonight.

Nothing but we’re both forking out thousands for IVF so that’s kind of a gift to each other.

We never buy cards or gifts, it's commercial marketing bullshit. If he had to have a specific day to show me he loves me then there is something wrong!!

(Although I was a tad bit touched when he came home from shopping with a 2.99 bunch of multicoloured roses)

A pizza express pizza from Tesco & a salted caramel dessert thing. Not technically for Valentines - we have just returned home from Sintra in Portugal where we spent a lovely weekend & couldn’t be bothered cooking ❣️

Best of luck with the IVF - that’s actually an extremely romantic thing to pay for if you think about it! Years ago DH (then my boyfriend) paid for endometriosis surgery for me. Maybe the most romantic gift of all time! Sending you so many good wishes

A card and chocolates from DH who knows not to get me anything more after 28 years together! I’m a complete cynic, it’s all commercial nonsense imo. We went out for dinner at the weekend so we had our nice time together then.

A good morning shag

Flowers, bath bombs, wine, chocolates. After 14 years he still knows how to make me smile. And yes we don't need a single day to show how much we love each other on but it's nice to make an extra special effort.

We agreed to give just a card each, that’s all we need from each other on Valentines.
