valentines day 2011

[thesightofoneself]

what are you going to get your SO?
and what are you receiving?


and for the single people on here, are you buying yourself anything nice?

[thesightofoneself]

i bought my gf a bear and a card. its a long distance relationship so i doubt i'll get anything in return but i love sending here stuff.

[TheresaRHPS]

I have no idea what I'll be receiving...

...but I'll probably get my boyfriend a box of candy. I'm also planning on giving him a framed photo of him, me and my son all together that was taken not long ago. He's not my son's biological father, but he's been in his life since before he was born. They're crazy about each other, lol.

Oh goodness! I haven't even thought of Valentine's Day yet. lol DH and I usually just have a nicer meal at home or do take-out Chinese food. We don't buy each other presents or cards.

I'm sure your girlfriend will love anything you send her. Packages in the mailbox are always so much fun!

probably nothing but cards this year - my b-day is 6 days before so he sometimes buys me a V-day/ B-day gift combined if there is something i have been wanting but i really cant think of anything .

i love hearing peoples stories. keep them coming

We dont do anything. Never have. Its Christmas then his bday is in January and mine is in March so we just kind of ignore Valentines Day. I do buy the kids a little trinket though. We celebrate the anniversary of our first date though in August with a nice dinner.

I really don't like valentines day, my grandfather passed away on that day when I was in highschool. But I will be getting my DD a toy and some treats, and I will get my mom something

We aren't going to get each other anything. Except I might get him a small box of candy. And make a yummy dinner.

For the kids, I'll get them each a small stuffed animal and for Wesley...a small box of candy.

Dh and I don't really "do" Valentine's day. I try to make a nice dinner that night for all of us. For the three boys I usually get some kind of small candy item.

We don't generally do anything special either -- my bday is 3 days after, and we don't usually do anything for it either. . . this year, maybe, since I'll turn 50. We'll see.

I really don't like valentines day, my grandfather passed away on that day when I was in highschool.

My mom passed away on Valentines day too so I totally understand how you feel.

Not sure whats going to happen on V day this year with me. I've been seeing a guy I work with on and off for almost a year and its mostly been off, just recently started to be on again. So I'm guessing nothing but will be pleasantly surprised if I get anything. Likewise, I haven't decided if I'm going to get him anything or not, if I do, it will just be a card.

I have no plans yet. Probably get my BF something small...IDK...I'm just not a big fan of Vday....just seems kinda silly to me!

I love to give presents even if I don’t receive anything. It can be bought or done by myself or combined. Even if we agree not to get each other anything, I know he’ll buy me something (at least a card). So I do the same))
Usually I like to buy unique presents. This year I’ve bought one of the best valentines day gifts for him online. He likes travelling so I’ve found a nice Message in a Bottle. It looks amazingly!

We don't buy each other gifts but we do have a quirky tradition I love: we go out for ice cream at the one DQ that's open year round, and we eat our soft-serve in the car like it's mid-july even though it's freezing outside! I love love love our V-day tradition!
