Nothing, if my man only bothered to show me he loved me one day a year id be booting his backside out the door!!!
Its not about money or gifts its about all the little things you do for each other over the days months and years you are together THEY show to each other how much you love each other not money or a gift.

That is so true and you put it very well. That would not be right to be shown something as a token of love only once a year. The whole year is what matters and how you are treated every other day as well. Not just one special day. It is not all about materials in life.

Again...I agree...we do show eachother we love eachother every day or my man would be next to yours on the curb...LOL! I am looking for something that will be different...not so much a gift or money...just something unique to do. it is winter here so not alot of things as options.

I dont need a gift that screams I love you..My hubby says it regularly all by himself...I know he does and do not expect anything to prove it..just be himself. We would rather celebrate valentines day by spending it together, not spending gifts on each other to say something we already know..We would rather spend the money on a nice dinner together as we already know how much we love each other...That is reassured every day of our life!

That is great! I feel the same way about my boyfriend...he shows me how much he loves me every day...flowers or candy aren't gonna scream it any louder that is for sure...LOL! See we do have an agreement not to "buy" eachother anything because we are going on a nice vacation in a month and would rather have that money to do something different then...and with money as tight as it is all over I really don't want to do both. I would still like to do something romantic for him but nothing that would cost a fortune. So I totally agree with the not needing extravigant gifts to show love. Looking more for unique ideas.

Well my Husband thinks money is so important, but i don't think it is. It is the thought that counts, but I will take the money. He has been during this for 15 yrs.

I am with you marciascott...I don't think money is what counts. I would much rather have my loved one give me something he really knows I would enjoy...whether it was something silly or not. Funny...but I told my boyfriend that you can tell alot about a person by the cards they pick out...LOL! I do believe this and I also believe it is true with what gifts they give. I remember the best gift he gave me was for my bday...actually he made his pups give it to me but I absolutely loved it...you see I LOVE my coffee and it has become kinda a joke between us so he went out and got me a gift card for coffee...I laughed so hard and enjoyed using it to by my coffee for a while...it was great! That told me he is tuned into what things bring a smile to my face. Sounds funny to be talking about that and coffee but its just me...LOL!

My husband always says I LOVE YOU to me many times in a day. But in this Valentines day, i would like to bake him a special cupcakes, i already bought him a cheap prezzie, i told him it's not that expensive and it's simple but he said, price doesn't count the important is it's from me and everything that from me is special. Actually being with him is what most important and we love each other and stay faithfull.
Happy posting.

hello debfeaster
i am planning on making my hubby a small gift basket or bowl with different kinds of food items that he enjoys eating and i also might even put him something that he enjoys drinking in it as well. then i am going to fix homemade pepper steak with rice and broccoli salad. and i think that i am going to fix homemade banana pudding for dessert on Valentine's Day. so it sounds like that i am going to be busy for awhile on Saturday preparing dinner for my hubby and myself. i am also hoping to find a babysitter for Saturday night so that my hubby and myself can have some our time for awhile. i hope that you have a great Valentine's Day on Saturday. keep those new discussions coming!
take care and have a beautiful afternoon.

That is a great idea and is very very thoughtful. To me I would much rather give and receive gifts like that...they take thought and are caring gifts. I have a bit of a dilema this Valentines day though. See my boyfriend isn't getting here until sat late afternoon or early evening and our town has what is called Snow Blast...a winter celebration with outdoor activities, fireworks and a band. I know is family is also coming up this weekend and will want to spend time with us as well. We both want to attend the fireworks and go to listen to the band for a while but unfortunately that does limit our alone time as well as ideas I previously had. Thanks for your help and good luck finding a babysitter...you enjoy that time alone!
