z00m25 Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 i took my girl to this hotel where they had like a 400$ vday package last year and she recently broke up with me and now treats me like im nothing, any dinner more expensive than mcdonalds dollar menu is overdoing it as far as im concerned.
somedude81 Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 Pyro has the right idea. Showing your partner you care about them should be a year long thing. If a guy was being romantic throughout the year but didn't do anything on V-day and the girl got mad because he didn't do anything on that day. Then she's just a spoiled brat.
O'Malley Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 It sounds good. Have a great time! Don't just do thoughtful things like this on a "holiday". Do things like this at any sporadic moment. A great point; over the years, my boyfriend and I have mutually treated each other to small gifts, and larger ones like events and vacations. It's even more fun to have something thoughtful come out of the blue, rather than just focusing on specific holidays.

Imagine how much the girl that wouldn't treat you like that would be worth. Pyro has the right idea. Showing your partner you care about them should be a year long thing. If a guy was being romantic throughout the year but didn't do anything on V-day and the girl got mad because he didn't do anything on that day. Then she's just a spoiled brat. I always thought of Vday as a day for both to show their caring for each other. I put an ad up on kijiji for alternative ideas to do of get for my H (it's weird because we are planning our healing separation at the same time). I meant Day of Significance particularly when it came to cultural. I do think it would send a very weird message to say that you are choosing that day to ignore your partner because you have some kind of personal protest against a day that encourages you to appreciate them. Do I think Vday is extra-spectacular and necessary? No. Do I let it get me all reactive either? No. It sounds good. Have a great time! A great point; over the years, my boyfriend and I have mutually treated each other to small gifts, and larger ones like events and vacations. It's even more fun to have something thoughtful come out of the blue, rather than just focusing on specific holidays. Agreed.

By no means skip out on V-day, but in addition to that day show your love and appreciation towards your SO.
somedude81 Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 It is not acceptable to point out that women are selfish when it comes to this day. Excuse me?! I hope you have a reason to back that up.

If a guy was being romantic throughout the year but didn't do anything on V-day and the girl got mad because he didn't do anything on that day. Then she's just a spoiled brat. Agreed completely. However there is absolutely nothing wrong with the OP wanting to do something special for his girl then, either. And it is a nice gesture. So stop bringing your personal anti-VDay agendas to his thread.
