Enough with all of the articles about good Vday gifts. It isn’t Christmas, it’s a stupid made up Hallmark holiday. Gifts for vday are ridiculous.
Flower, card, dinner. That’s enough. |
Flower, card and dinner? You fell for the Hallmark sentiment hook, line and sinker. I don't want any of those things. |
I didn't The wife did. |
She probably would appreciate a gift, too. |
| Anything to make a buck. All the holidays are terribly commercial now. |
Thats basically what christmas is. Why do I give you a gift for some made up persons not-even-real birthday? Also, arent flowers gifts? |
Buy the gift instead of wasteful flowers and an overpriced dinner on crowded Valentine's Day. Be more creative and maybe you won't have such a disappointed wife. |
|
If your wife is the type to expect card-flowers-dinner, then I’m sure she also expects a gift and you disappoint her every year.
I don’t want any of that crap, but the economy thanks you and your wife. |

I am not Christian but give gifts on Christmas. I enjoy Valentine's Day even though it's a made up holiday.
Though I would never do the whole dinner date at a restaurant thing. I like giving/getting chocolate and flowers because chocolate tastes good and flowers are pretty. My DC loves valentines day and we use it as an excuse to make crafts and wear her favorite colors (red and pink). DH and I usually make something tasty at home or get takeout. Often I buy flowers and chocolate myself because they are just home decor and snacks -- I don't need them to be gifts. It's okay to just enjoy the nice aspects of things and not worry about the rest. Life need not be a series of compulsory obligations. |

I just want flowers, bottle of wine and chocolates. And of course, fun times after kids go to bed.
DH and I each trade off every year making a Valentines dinner party with our kids. Our kids are little and obsessed with celebrating holidays. Pink tablecloth, pink candles, kids make paper decorations. We eat fun foods like heart pizzas, fondue and lobster. Dinner out at a restaurant on Valentines day? I can't think of anything worse. Surly waiters, overpriced prix fixe menus, slow service. |
But you’re going to get a BJ and more as your present. |
|
If you go out for dinner on Valentines Day I think less of you. Same for expensive ass flower delivery.
Both are so basic and boring. |
Maybe ‘dinner’ could also mean home cooking…. I bet your husband would rather masturbate most days than sleep with you. You seem like a toxic shrew. |
| Blame commercialism. That’s what caused all of this. I went to Target 2 days after Christmas and they already had a ton of Valentine’s Day stuff up. All of it is just ridiculous. I guess we only have one day to tell our significant other they matter, according to them. |
I have a bridge to sell you if you think Christmas is not. |
