I do!

I find it bizarre that you can't answer the question without making it an attack on me

OP here.. so you're ok with going through your day without anyone saying I love you, mom happy valentine's day! No paper card or any acknowledgment of the holiday at all?

DP, but yes I am. It's not a real holiday.

Stop using your kids like this as weapons in your marriage. It's much more deleterious to them then not hearing Happy Valentines' Day.

I know of what I speak.

I find it hard to believe that a Hallmark card could correct whatever is going on in your relationship. Do you think it is only the man's job to buy a card, flowers etc for this holiday? Does your DH show you in other ways that he cares for you?
