Because nobody else here is young like me lol. 31 here and going out. Everyone I know is.

3 years casual dating on and off/friendship (single parents), 1 month of dating seriously. Heading to a hotel in the Bay area on a marina while our ex's have the kids on the 15th/16th. Dinner on a boardwalk weather's nice, hot tub time/bar, museums in SF the next day.

I’ll get my husband a heart shaped Reese peanut butter cup. He will likely get me a bouquet of flowers from the grocery store. Nothing else out of the ordinary.

We are in our 50s and have been very happily married for 23 years.

I'm recently single so I'll do something with friends. Probably see a band. I've got galentines brunch on Sunday.

Ha, thanks. Well, I will be having fun. He backed out; he’s pretty conservative/Christian. Kinda weird he didn’t say anything when I was first planning it and waited until a week before. But, I’ll still be going and having fun. If I have to sit through another Valentines Day where a dude takes me to a mediocre restaurant then expects crazy sex afterwards, I may very well die.

There is no rule that says you have to eat at mediocre restaurants. Make the reservation yourself.

Um, that’s exactly why I made reservations myself to do what I wanted to do. He didn’t like what I picked.

We will meet at a hotel in DC and have hot sex. We are in our 40s.

You're 48 and 50 and have a 14yo grandson?

Do it. Get both, and make it an expensive bouquet and nice chocolate.

Having dinner at a restaurant in Clifton. I'm 55 and he's 65. Together 23 years.

I have always loved Valentine's Day, and always will. But I am a romantic at heart and I love holidays in general.

Same. It's just a day to avoid restaurants for us.

Same, married 15 years. It was maybe an excuse to do something fun before we had kids. Now it's really about getting the kids some candy and sending Valentines cards to school.

This is the official National F*** Day, any minimal plan would get you laid.

Taking my child to her sports competition and thinking about how my STBX took 17 years of our life together and threw it in the garbage can by filing for divorce because he was tired of doing chores and sharing his schedule with me.

And then probably making nachos.
