Should I be upset that I did not get a Valentine's Day gift or card?

Next year, if you want something more for Valentine's Day, open your mouth and tell him what you want at least 2-4 weeks ahead of time. Say this: "Honey, next week is Valentine's Day. I really want you to do something nice for me for it. It matters a lot to me. Please make dinner reservations somewhere nice." Then give him a 1 week warning.

If you want flowers, tell him 1 week ahead of time and then the day before.

I'm NOT going ask for what I want on Valentine's Day. It kind of defeats the purpose, don't you think? at what point does common sense kick in?

Common sense is that you are very clear about what you want out of a relationship. People aren't mind readers. Some people don't care about V-Day at all. Some do. If you're not clear about what you want, you deserve nothing. Your poor spouse. He doesn't deserve to be abused for not being a psychic.

Yes, and then tell him what kind of foreplay you would like at the end of the night and how long it should last....hahahha. Love this. So hot!!

If he isn't doing it right, you better believe that you should tell him EXACTLY what kind of foreplay you want and how long it should last. If you can't be explicit about what you want and need, you deserve NOTHING. Except maybe a divorce.

He got me flowers from Walmart a couple of days ago. They are roses and are actually pretty. I made dinner plans for us with another couple and we all went out and had a nice evening. No cards either way, or any special gifts. Pretty ho-hum, but acceptable, I guess!

He got you flowers and you gave him nothing? Poor DH.

Meh, could be worse. I got nothing, despite getting a card and small gift for him and each of the kids , and when I expressed disappointment he said he didn't really care about me , didn't I know this already, and then screamed obscenities (in front of children), threw a heavy wooden dining chair (which broke) and stormed out. Then he came back to kick a few things, tell me he doesn't want the baby, never did, (I am very pregnant) and wishes she wasn't coming.

Walmart flowers? Everyone knows the exact same flowers are less romantic if they come from Walmart instead of somewhere more expensive.

The only ones wondering are these dumb twits that keep posting this inane "should I be mad he didn't guess I wanted __________ for __________?"
