Marielle Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 I want to know what are you expecting to happen for this romantic date in such bizarre situation we are all living. Each situation is different, I want to know what would be your personal experience in such a date. What happened last time, feel free to let me know.
Art_Critic Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 It's a day like any other.. it'll pass and I'll go to work.. go home .. and get up the next day.. I'm not seeing anyone right now and ex's don't get valentines
newbby Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 It's a day like any other.. it'll pass and I'll go to work.. go home .. and get up the next day.. art! i didnt know you were having an affair!! I'm not seeing anyone right now and ex's don't get valentines oh, i see. the affair is over now.
Art_Critic Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 art! i didnt know you were having an affair!! oh, i see. the affair is over now. Funny.. I was just being a bit of a smartass.. Isn't it still just another day for someone involved in an affair ? I mean he is buying his wife the roses and taking her out to dinner while you sit at home and look at the box of chocolates he gave you

Each situation is different, I want to know what would be your personal experience in such a date. What happened last time, feel free to let me know. I have never had a romantic valentines day!!---typically its to go out and eat and get flowers-baddabing baddaboom... typical.. Wish something different for once would happen in my life on valentines day.. I don't even know what to do for Mr. L for valentines day. He is not a man easy to do anything for!! He can buy basically anything he wants when he wants it. He is simple in nature so a watch (already has a really nice one from exgf), jewelry of any kind is out of the question. He isn't technologically smart so gadgets dont work. I just don't know about him. Chocolate, etc just doesn't fit him.. (he's always watching his carb intake...) I was thinking about just giving him ME!! (buy something really sexy for myself to wear for him and get a bottle of massage oil, candles, rose pedals, sultrey music and just make a nice evening of it...)
cal gal Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 I hate these holidays where people feel obligated to do something just because of a certain day. I would rather have small kind gestures on a daily basis than make someone feel that they had to buy me something jusy because it's Valentine's Day or my birthday, etc. Never believed in all that hype!
Walking away Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 My MM wanted to fly me to Las Vegas and to take me to see Barry Manilow (my favorite performer) in concert the evening after Valentine's Day. I declined.

Well my ex told me he is taking his new W on a cruise. :sick: I politly smiled as I throw up in my mouth:mad:
zoey15 Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 I won't be doing anything w/ MM! Thanks to me waking up last week. If I do, it will be with a single man. I miss MM, but not to the point of contact! What a miserable day for all OW or the W!
lilmoma1973 Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 Don't know what is in store for me my h not too much of a romantic..

I miss MM, but not to the point of contact! What a miserable day for all OW or the W! Good for you for taking a stand. There are gonna be many of us home alone. For those still involved with MM 2/15 is usually their day.
Curmudgeon Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Or you could try this. Something my wife did one year. She bought me a new bathrobe and came out of the bedroom wearing it. She then told me it was my gift, took it off and handed it to me which left her dressed (barely) in a new "something sexy." It was an evening to remember!
krbshappy71 Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 I don't do Valentine's day. Well, I buy a little something for my daughters but that's it. My man's pretty happy I don't bother with it, too. The commercials on the radio telling guys to buy their women diamonds & such crack me up, If people do celebrate it and enjoy it, that's cool, I just don't. I do worry about people who get all worked up about it wondering what their man will get them, upset if he doesn't get what she wanted, etc. That's just sad.
cal gal Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 I am proud of you Zoey. Keep up the strong attitude! Curm, Well - your wife seems like the kind of gal that WOULD be my best friend! You are a lucking guy that she is fun loving and has a good sense of adventure. That sounds like a scenario that I would done with hubby during my married years.... Oh my - I miss that security of roll playing.... dang it. What's on the agenda this Vday Curm?
luvtoto Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 I work right across the street from a flower shop. Last Valentine's Day, I was still single and noticed men leaving the shop with beautiful flowers all day. I am a hopeless romantic, and having no prospects in site...it depressed me. This Valentine's Day, I'm seeing someone special. It isn't the gift I am all hung up on. It's having someone to spend it with...that's a gift in itself. But, just between you and me...I think I'm gonna get some!!! Hehehe!
AZKHO Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 It will be much like any other day. Get up, go to work, then school at night. My mom and dad still faithfully send me and my sisters a card and something small, though I am their only "single" child. Last year a group of me an my single friends went out to dinner and then to the bar. It was a blast. My MM is now hours away, but he is coming out on Feb. 16 to the spend the week with me. I am giving him the ultimatium, me or her!!! That should be fun. So I am sure after that i am going to be officially single. V-Day doesn't bum me out anymore. It is a day of love, love your kids, your parents, your sisters, brothers, right, that is what the day is about.
kkat Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 I have had some Valentine's Days when I was with a boyfriend, including a couple when I was living with the guy who is now my ex-MM...., and a couple when I was seeing him as the OW, and many, many when I was alone. This year, will definitely be alone, unless some guy happens to break into my apartment that day. I am thinking to host a tiny little wine and tapas party for some other single friends, or otherwise booking a massage or something. But I'm not going to feel badly because of the day. I figure even flat out alone, I am closer this year to finding true love than I was this time last year with MM.
newbby Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 ok since anyone is posting here, and not just ow, i will pour out my sadness and loneliness too. actually i dont get depressed on v day. its just anther day to me, and its been many years since i had a card. when i was with mm i didnt expect nor recieve anything, ha ha, that would have been ridiculous (not ridiculing anyone elses relationships btw, only mine!). this year, hmm though i do have a few interests who have also expressed interest in me, i cant be bothered with that stuff just yet. i am working on me, me, me. massage sounds good, and good to see you kkat!

AZKHO, First of all good luck with MM "The talk" is always hard. and V day is about love and appriciation in general including family and friends. KKat, I am closer this year to finding true love than I was this time last year with MM. How true! excellent statement!

Is this the first time you will be doing this? Just stay strong in your beliefs and notice the date you will be spending V-day (or time together) w/ him...the 16th. You deserve better.
