what are your opinions on this? curious to find out if im the only sceptical and unromantic person on thesite. I feel its a commercial thing where people seem to go a bit loopy buying gifts. i think if you love someone you shouldnt need a special day to show it, it should be part of every day.

my boyfriend shows me that he loves me all the time just by the things he does for me. i don't need him to spoil me on a hallmark holiday to know that!
me and my boyfriend have decided to just get each other a nice card this year. normally we buy each other a present but we both have better things to spend our money on...like our holiday to thailand 12 days later!!!! we'll cook a nice meal and stuff but we do that all the time anyway, haha! will probably get a bottle of wine or something to go with it too eh?
Think i lost totally intrest the year that i got dumped on v'day
but i know my boy'f is really into it, so i try to get him a little present.
tends to stress me out a bit worrying about it.
Who the hell invented valentines day?!?!
I don't go ott with presents or whatever. We tend to get a card and something rather small - we've had £5 limits before. But we tend to have a bit of fun, make a little bit more of an effort and enjoy the day
See Here for your answer.
I hate this day because I don't have a girlfriend. :crying: :grump:
I've never had a valentines day with a boyfriend but i would be happy just spending it like any other day than making a big deal
But the weekend before will be good :d
Nonsense. Best night of the year to go out if you're single .
I'll be...uh...going to Slimming World :yeees:.
We also do little cutesy things that you'd get a bit sick of if they were all year round. Like one year Mr K made me sandwiches to take to work, which he often does, but when I got them out i found he'd cut them into heart shapes. Cute, but if he did things like that all year round I'd be well over it.
I am, in theory, going to be seeing Boy the weekend before. I've bought him a card that reminded me of him (not a cutesy rubbish one, basically), and I'm writing a little letter to put in it, because Valentine's isn't a big deal to me, but we've had a bit of a shit week or two (my fault) so I want to make him feel as special as he is .
I don't think its any more than a bit of fun though, there is no need to go over the top just a nice card and a token present would be nice.
Of course some of us are still waiting to be swept off our feet :grump:
personally, a pizza and a snog and i'm done.
Hahaha, that was great!
I dont really bother nowadays, we been together over four years, in the beginning we made an effort as its Valentines day and your madely in love but i wouldnt celebrate it now...
Now to find a willing lady....
