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. Didn’t realise it was Valentine’s Day until I walked into M&S earlier and saw the signs. To be fair, I am jet lagged

I did get cuddles from a friend’s cat. Said friend is also cooking dinner tonight so I’m getting no-effort involved food which is always appreciated.

Flowers and I'm cooking steak for us. Time together most important Cards are dumb.

My husband and I don’t really go massive on v day but I got a card with a gorgeous love note in it, a bar of dairy milk and a lie in (half term here)

Flowers and chocolate. I finally told dh to skip flowers from now on. Never liked them and such a waste of money.

Surely it doesn’t matter what anyone else had? It’s not a competition!

A quickie between work meetings this morning and then a nice coffee and home-cooked croissant ( which he cooked)
We both wfh, and on Mondays all our children are out of the house all morning - it's the only time we get at home just the two of us
We don't need objects, we want quality time together

@Ionlydomassiveones

Nothing. Because we are not 15.

Oh how we need more positive people like you in the world 😆😜

A He-Man lunch box and a new pot for my cheese plant.

I got him a star fox t-shirt.

Nothing because if I want to show dh I love him and vice versa we don't need permission from a load of marketing executives

Fuck all. I only wanted to do cards. He couldn’t even manage that.

Flowers, for a change.Got him a pill box in a wallet.
We're old, obviously !

Card and a dozen roses.

Hotel Chocolat chocolates, but Christmas ones. We live not far from an outlet centre and the shop had loads of Christmas stock greatly reduced. We currently have no income but not qualified any benefits so I’m pleased that DH chose the cheapest option.

I bought him a large bar of Fruit and Nut, we’ve never bought anything expensive for Valentines as both our birthdays are January.

Our first valentines together after I got out of toxic marriage where I was emotionally ignored for 15 years and treated like a housekeeper

I got a canvas with the location of our first date on and he took the day off work to take me for lunch at a pub we like then we built a trampoline for my youngest son. Couldn’t have been a better day

A very beautiful box of flowers from my favourite florist. My DC made me very cute cards too which I love. I took us as a family out for a fancy lunch yesterday. Today I did some themed cooking with the DC and we had a family film night (with proper popcorn boxes and printed tickets) just for fun.

Opal earrings, flowers, a swanky dinner at a Michelin starred restaurant (last night), and a card.

I got a couple of gnarly parsnips dug out of the allotment, though in his defense, DH had covid last week and isn't mingling yet.
It was the closest he could get to flowers, under the circumstances!

Yesterday we exchanged board games, and got a takeaway and played the new games.

And this morning we exchanged cards. 🙂

YABU.

I got a card and some roses and then he went and spent the day with his parents as I’ve just tested positive for covid. Joy.

I got an anonymous bouquet of potatoes I also got a box of chocolates and a lovely card from a 4 year old I look after

@MadisonAvenue

Nothing, we don’t take any notice of it.

We don’t either. We celebrate our an anniversary which means so much more.

A love letter tonight and hes making dinner :)

It was very lovely.

I got my DP a 6 pack of tumblers from Asda and a box of chocs.

A card and an M&S meal deal.
