Anyone tired of V day? I guess I'll order the usual flowers for my wife and now six your old girl. All while expecting nothing in return.

Want to get my daughter matching Speedo goggles like mine but my wife says that's not very V like. I'm thinking she loves mine and it's practical. Thoughts?

V-day

Another day in which women remind men on how worthless and hopeless they are without them in their life and you should worship them.

We never celebrate Vday. Last year my wife was in labor(born feb15) The year before that I quit my job and we started a biz on Vday, and before that we lived in separate cities 4 hours apart. I hate halmark holidays anyway. She doesn't want to do anything either. We celebrate randomly throughout the year when we feel like it, not when halmark says we should.

I didnt really plan on it, but my gf and I are going to a concert on that day and shes happy with it. Normally we just get each other something small cuz vday is pointless imo.

It's just a damn marketing scam.

Paid for by the candy stores, jewelery stores, greeting card companies, restaurants, and of course all the underwear stores.

Besides. Ask any woman and she will tell you that every day is Valentines Day.

Because if you aint giving, you aint getting.

Do nothing for it. I bring my girl flowers and take her on dates sporadically through the year. She expects and asks for nothing on vday.

We tried to go out to dinner once...turned out to be a nightmare, with 2-3 hour waits every where.

Now we usually just get take out from one of the places we like, and enjoy it with no cell phones, facebook, or any outside annoyances.

I honestly think my wife hates Valentine's Day more than I do - we both promised no gifts and just go out for a nice dinner w/our almost 3 year-old son. The older I get, the more of a sham the entire day becomes.

we've never really done much, we'll go to a nice dinner sometimes and thats about it, we'll do something this year for sure since its the first year being married and all but overall neither of us really cares

My favorite VDay gift ever was when I was about 9: my mom got me a mini igloo lunch box like my dad's, but in teal. It was AWESOME. All the kids at school were jelly. Nothing wrong with practical :shrug:
