Get naked. Bring beer.

Cogito - are you sure you got those in the right order? It's cold right now... Smile

chubbymomie2012 · 13/02/2013 17:57

Lol. It's certainly original although he'd be thinking it was meant for our eldest son lol

Really? You can't find ANY words to express how you feel about your partner/other half without resorting to asking strangers for ideas?

I actually think that's rather sad.

starfishmummy · 13/02/2013 18:02

Usually just a "x"
But nothing this year as I have decided not to bother as dh never does. I have just mentioned that his mother seems to have sent ds a card for tomorrow and he looked at me blankly, so obviously the date has not registered.

WhichIsBest · 13/02/2013 18:05

Sometimes I try to think of something we've talked about recently or something we've done, and I write about how I appreciate DH for some reason to do with the recent thing.

Or, I just write my name, or make a joke.

Depends on what mood I am in.

I once wrote ' Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I'm up the duff and it's all down to you' .

One of us laughed.

This year I'm going with

"Happy alentines Day,
You can have the V later"

You don't need to express your undying love in a card, I do it to make DP smile. Depends on what you want to say really, if it's an indepth declaration of love you want no one here can give inspiration.

starsandunicorns · 13/02/2013 18:17

We complete to do the most slushy vom inducing ones it has been known that we count up how many x's we give each .other this done with laughter.

flatbellyfella · 13/02/2013 18:48

Put some bubble wrap inside & write ,
" Here is some bubbly to go on with, Get the real thing later."

poozlepants · 13/02/2013 18:49

Roses are red
Violets are blue
I smell like flowers
You smell like poo

Every year I write this- for the past 22 years.

izzyizin · 13/02/2013 19:45

Do you recycle the card as well as the sentiment, poozle? Confused

chubbymomie2012 · 13/02/2013 20:08

Voiceofunreason. Lighten up!

It works for us.
For a few years DH bought a card on his way home and put it in the glove box and then forgot to write it. Now he has 3 wifey Valentine cards in there. It has become a standing joke so I am guessing if I look in the glove box tomorrow there will be another one.
We are not overly romantic as you have probably guessed.

Roses are red, Violets are blue, sugar is sweet and so are you.

But the roses have wilted, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl is empty and so is your head.

AKissIsNotAContract · 13/02/2013 22:22

Poozle: I like that. You must be doing something right if you've been together 22 years :)

fluffyraggies · 14/02/2013 08:31

Very lovey dovey this year.
1st Valentine's day as DH/DW :)

Bluemonkeyspots · 14/02/2013 08:38

Dh away this year so wrote him some filth safe in the knowledge dc won't set eyes on it.

Otherwise it's

Roses are blue
Violets are red
This poem makes no sense
Microwave

WankbadgersBreakfast · 14/02/2013 08:38

Dear Mr Wank
I hate your stinking guts!
You make me vomit.
You're the scum between my toes.
Love, Wankbadger.

He wrote
You stink, you can't cook and you suck in bed. Fuck knows why I'm here.

We write the opposite Grin of how we feel. To read them you'd think we were mortal enemies but the truth is otherwise.

MakesCakesWhenStressed · 14/02/2013 08:42

I just made his favourite biscuits and made them heart shaped.

I say I love you with food...and sex. He got laid last night and the night before that. I don't think he cares that I didn't get a card Wink

ceramicunicorn · 14/02/2013 08:46

Still love you. See last years card for full details.

Moominsarehippos · 14/02/2013 08:46

Oh the stress! I'm not a smooshy-mooshy type. I need inspiration.

TaggieCampbellBlack · 14/02/2013 08:49

Whatever I feel at the time, nothing too flowery... Having said that, am 36 weeks pg and unbelievably wrote what looks like a short essay this year!!! Soppy pregnant cow (which is probably exactly what he will say to me when he reads it, lol!!!)
