I don't know what to ask for this Valentine's Day.

[greencrayon]

I'm not girly like most of you are... I don't ever wear makeup, I have one purse. I don't /need/ anything, and I can't think of anything I want. So, what are you guys getting/hoping to get for V-Day?

[mollz007]

chocolate

[audette]

I might get a card. And that'll be fine. We don't really do valentines in a big way.

[Deleted]

Nothing. We bought a new tv so I'm skipping V Day this year. It's not really our thing.

[mollz007]

In all seriousness, we dont celebrate V day. I will probably tell him to save money that day. Knowing him, he will still get me something though. But yeah, chocolate=the way to my heart. (heart)

[dexteroni]

lol milsaroo. Those are great.

OP, you do gifts as if it were Christmas or your birthday? We just exchange cards and usually one of us brings home a treat for us to share.

I agree with letting him get you whatever he wants. What are you getting him?

[cajunmom]

A card. We're going to Puerto Rico on Feb. 16th so we aren't spending money on unnecessary gifts.

[mbcdefg]

We don't exchange gifts. I usually make dinner and he usually brings me flowers.

[ghost]

DH will be playing at the Airforce base again this year..so maybe a phone call!! We don't celebrate it (have never been together on the day. I should say every day is valentines day here!

[macmars45]

Chocolate and a book or a movie probably.

Maybe nothing. I hadn't thought that far ahead. We might just save our celebrating for when I can walk without pain... that'll probably be March at the earliest. Stupid sprained foot ruins everything.

[sillygoosegirl]

I think I must be less girly than you are, because we don't really do Valentine's Day at all.

[greencrayon]

This is our first Valentine's Day together. He's been deployed for two, and lived in different places for the others. I got him a leather wallet (he still has his from 10 years ago, and it's time to go.)

[shakeitout]

We don't do V-day, but I didn't realize it was the type of holiday where people asked for certain gifts. I might insist on doing V-day if that's the case.

[chessie]

We dont do V-Day either, just was never our thing though. Maybe I will ask for sex and surprise DH.

[Deleted]

He usually sends me flowers at work, which I have mixed feelings about because they are soooo expensive but it is a nice sweet gesture.

I really don't want anything else anyway. Unless maybe more money in savings or a paid off CC. lol. We're on a major cutback right now so blowing money on "stuff" is basically the last thing that will help my sanity.

[greencrayon]

Now you all are making me feel greedy. I didn't realize that people didn't really celebrate!

[fortmyersbride]

Milsaroo- that's awesome!

[moolarkey]

I didn't know one asked for things for Valentine's Day. I always thought the giver gave gifts of their choice.

[RandZB]

I get flowers.

[Brie]

I'm a greedy bitch, then. He asked and I told him I wanted a silver pendant or bracelet or a massage.

[callie]

H gives me chocolate covered strawberries and a stuffed animal every year.

[mskitkat]

I ask for flowers. I adore getting fresh flowers, but H won't get them for me any day other than Valentine's.

[cricketwife]

I'm always in for any excuse for chocolate and flowers. But I'm super MM and ask for the $7 flowers from Trader Joe's. I think buying overpriced roses just because it's Vday is ridiculous. He's also taking me out to a "surprise" restaurant, but that's really a gift for him because his favorite thing is eating out.

We tell each other what we want for each holiday. No surprises.

February is a month of awesome, v-day, anniversary, birthday. I love pink and red and hearts and flowers. Squeeee!!!

[greekypie]

We don't do gifts.

[Deleted]

Oh lord, I just had a MM moment.

My co-op sent me an e-mail with Valentine specials and one of the suggested gifts was a diva cup. Fucking hippies.

[Deleted]

I really want some Godiva chocolate covered oreos.

We usually just go to a hockey game and dinner. This year I'm trying to be MM and fix dinner.

[my4girls]

I love presents and any reason to get and give them I'm getting DH some pj/ lounge pants and a new wallet he's been wanting. I keep a running amazon list of things I think of that I want and he usually just picks me something from that

[Deleted]

We usually just have pizza.

Last year, my puppy got me a freaking heart shaped box of chocolates. I cannot express how happy it made me. I have always wanted one of those.
