Most of us won't be getting anything from anyone... and hearing my company workers already complain about they wanted more and more and are not satisfied with what they got makes me want to strangle them.

 

Spoiled brats is what a lot of women act like today.

 

I do however really like to see the girls who are genuinely surprised and happy with their gifts.. their eyes beaming and their smile wide... good for them.

I asked my boyfriend to please go easy on me today because I feel like ****. He readily agreed. That is the best present he could give me. :love:

I'm with you Keenly. I never understood what it was about V-day that makes certain grown women turn into spoiled children. It's like an annual attack of the heart-bedazzled Bridezillas. Personally, I'm happy as hell with a kiss and a "Happy Valentine's Day" from someone I care about. Anything extra is just icing on the cake.

When I got to work this morning one girl was so happy that she got flowers delivered.

 

The other said " Omg he only sent me 1 dozen roses... thats it. We will have to have a talk about this tonight "

 

 

I wanted to slap her.

What shocks me is how many guys will put up with those HUGE expectations.

The stuff some guys are willing to do for vagina never fails to amaze me.

 

It's vagina, not oxygen. You don't need it to survive.

I think I might have to steal that quote. :lmao:

 

I want to point out, some vaginas don't snap shut if they "only" get a dozen roses for Valentine's day. If I were a man (or a lesbian), I'd seriously question my relationship if my girlfriend responded like Keenly's coworker.

Reminds me of roses I got couple years back. she was a sweet girl but she brought this couple roses with gypsophila covered with vinyl wrapper. that looked cheap and I thought of her true intentions (Did she buy it just as a duty?)

 

I wanted to buy something for this business related older lady. I couldn't pick up cheap roses that goes for $5.99 or even $9.99.

 

I say $19.99 is the minimum if you care about the person.

Can we complain about what we DIDN'T get?? :(

 

Been dating this guy for about a couple of weeks now (5 dates and one to come this weekend) and he did nothing! I know we aren't exclusive, but simply a card would have made me smile. He texts daily, asks me out in advance, always pays, hasn't pressured me for sex, remembers little things I tell him, etc. I thought we were headed in a good direction, but maybe I'm wrong.

 

Would you guys have done something if you liked a girl you recently started dating, exclusive or not?

You aren't exclusive yet so he may have thought it would be awkward to get you something.

I guess you could be right; I just don't get how it could be awkward. Last year I was just dating someone new around Valentines and he got me a small box of chocolates and a card that said something simple like "enjoying getting to know you. Have a great day." That didn't scare me off or make me want to start planning our wedding.

 

We'll see what happens Saturday.

My guess is he has a Valentines Day present for you Saturday.

 

I was going to abbreviate that to VD and quickly decided not to.

Keenly, that's a good pic of you in avatar, hope that's in your profile or maybe main profile pic. Has a lot of style to it. If you look and act like that I don't understand not having a girl or two who want to date you to give Valentine Day presents to.

 

I know you discussed in some of your other threads but I don't recall seeing that avatar before.

I don't know if its just my natural defense mechanism but I honestly can not tell if you are being sarcastic or not. Ha.

 

Yeah, its as of tuesday. Protip : Don't take a picture in the dark with a billion candlepower flash. You will be blinded.

I rather pay for sex than deal with that nonsense.

 

I'm serious.

I read it as sarcastic too but I may just be in a bad mood

well, good point, that could read either way and given my nature surprised I wasn't for once, but yeah, good pic. It does take good strong lighting.

I didn't get my girlfriend anything, and she didn't get me anything. We both decided that it was pointless to be exchanging gifts just because this Hallmark holiday commands us to. However, there will be some tender loving when we meet up ;)

Some women like Valentine gifts and some don't like the holiday and not being exclusive yet might leave a guy confused as to what to do. See what happens Saturday.

My fiance is out of the country, but he sent me a coffee mug with a heart on it that turns red when the beverage is hot and a digital bouquet. I thought it was sweet and perfect.:love:

 

I got him some beef jerky from this jerkey store he likes. :D

Some major symbolism there. Hope he appreciates it. :)

Anyone who complains about a thoughtful gift that anyone gets them is a huge spoiled brat, period.

 

I got a bouquet of flowers and I loved them. :) I would still have loved them if he had chosen just 1 rose, or candies, or a card, or whatever else people get.

 

It also annoys me when people get snarky about how 'unoriginal' VDay gifts are. Cut the poor gift-givers a break, geez. If they want to do something unorthodox and original, good for them. If they want to get the 'safer' alternatives because they're certain their partners will like them, good for them! It's the thought that counts.

I was given a dozen red roses that were hidden in his roommate's room until midnight so that I wouldn't see them, and we went out to a quick dinner and to see The Hobbit in IMAX 3D - the dinner was a total disaster, but I loved the evening all the same. I'd also have been happy staying in and cooking a nice meal together. I've never understood people who get gifts and/or affection and then turn around and complain about it.
