What does Valentine's Day mean to you?

This is my first rodeo, The first time I have been in love on Feb 14th. I am a picky eater and the best meal for me is pizza. So I wouldn't even want to go to a posh place! G-d help the guy who wanted to impress me! I hate flowers, Don't want jewelry, and won't eat at a fancy restaurant!

Thank you.

Nothing wrong with that. I like nice things, but I have actually been insulted before when someone has tried to give me too much. I suppose it made me feel as though they thought I was for sale or something. Big turn off to go to far to soon..know what I mean? Congrats on your first Valentines Day with your love.

I won't go as far to say I thought all of this was set up by Hallmark, but I Never thought this holiday wasn't for me. This year I have a steady but I still don't feel like celebrating it. I hate flowers. I only like plain milk chocolate.I don't want any posh jewelry. What is the point?

I told mt guy point blank , no flowers. What I didn't tell him is that I see flowers as a cop out apology, a Fake apology. Ironically he Loves flowers. I just told him , I feel the complete opposite.This is th first time I will be in love when Feb 14th rolls along and All I eant to do is see about the St Valentine's Day Massacre !

I think it is a nice holiday. Good grief, we celebrate peoples deaths with a holiday, why not love? I don't have a problem with it...and it is nice to get things like that. I guess I have just always been with the wrong person! I don't like flowers either...well I like them but to buy them...and they are so expensive and they die in a few days....I keep hinting to my husband...buy me a plant that I can keep...but he don't get the message. If he is with someone that is doing something for his wife or girl....mine will do 2 dozen carnations. Big deal. They mean nothing, cause they are the cheapest flower he can find and he only did it to impress who he was with.

Thanks for your response.I have never saw it from thr guy's point of view. Oops. Sorry And I call myself for men's rights.My G-d everything Could go wrong! You could pick a flower she hates. You could go for what you can afford in a gift and she may not like it, Her favoeite restaurant is booked until April! And there goes your evening! And knowing women , you will Never live it down! Am I glad I told my guy , No Flowers. He is lucky , my favoerite restaurant is for my birthday not Feb 14th I Don't want a gift. So the night won't be ruined.

I'm like you I suppose. my guy did say I was romantic but I don't get why Valentine's Day is so special.

Ok. Thanks I think I understand better why guys are buying the jewelry and the flowers. They Have to re- woo they loves.

I totally agree. Not one day has gone by where I didn't express how I feel about my guy. Trying to bottle all of it into one day doesn't make sense!

When I was single , I thought the romantic part wasn't meant for me.So I never got into the lovey dovey part. I never liked receiving flowers. To me they are a cop out apology I will not accept. As for candies, unless they are all plain milk chocolate, i may not like All of them. This year I have a guy and Told him , he is Already my Valentine so no flowers! I hope you can enjoy this Feb 14th. Take Care.

Wow! I guess I am not romantic. To me St Valentine's day will Always mean " Up against the wall!"Rat-a-tat-tat!!

Thank you . I thought so. I am not alone.

" as long as my man is with me on that day , that itself, makes my day." This is how I feel Everyday! Feb 14th is just another one.

What about now?
