This, but my DW couldn’t care less. She will find an opportunity within it to point out what I didn’t wrong and any errors I made along the way. Got up early before her to take her car to get washed/detailed. She was still asleep when I returned. When she woke up she was beyond pissed that I took “her” car without asking.

V-Day for the B-J!

Smart man. Lazy men who make no effect are not getting any on V-Day.

What's lazy? Doing nothing or a card and flowers? What are you calling lazy?

No, the lazy men who so absolutely nothing. Card and flowers are great.

I think a lot of women prefer not to make a big deal out of Valentine's Day, but feel weird if their husband does absolutely nothing. Like a bouquet of flowers or a small gift is nice, but I think it's kind of weird when married people go all out. Going out to dinner on Valentine's Day can be a big PITA compared to just about any other day, and a lot of the generic gifts (red roses, heart shaped box of chocolates) feel cheesy and, well, generic.

But also if your husband does nothing, especially if he's a particularly effusive guy to begin with, it feels almost like an insult. Valentine's Day can be an excuse for otherwise unromantic men to do something a little thoughtful and romantic, which usually makes women feel good.

Hmm, my husband does nothing for Valentine's Day even though he is otherwise generous and romantic because he knows I think it's a silly holiday, so it doesn't hurt at all. For all the unromantic men out there, feel free to do something nice for Valentine's Day, but then focus on doing nice things throughout the year! I think I'd be mad if my husband only showed up romantically once a year on a date that someone else proscribed.
