I don't expect much on V-Day....I do think it's pretty commercialized, but I also think it's a day to take time to make sure your SO knows you love them. Sure, we say, "I love you" every day, but we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of every day life. This is a good opportunity to spend time with/on eachother and make it special.
I told BF I don't want roses...no need to waste that money. I'm happy with some conversation hearts (I love them). I would like a *little* something, but I told him he didn't even have to spend any money. He can make a nice dinner, or we can go to dinner and just spend some good one on one time. :shrug:
Last year I made him a coupon book. There were things in it like "one free back rub," "one free night off from the kids," "one free :blahblah." He liked it, but he hasn't even used them all.
This year I'm getting him a small gift cert. for his tool company.

Well my sweetie got me something that I really appreciate - although I didn't realize it at first. Mainly because I can't see all that well.
She dyed her hair red. Not deep red, just a light auburn.
I have been turned on by red hair since I was like, 5. Always. If I'm anywhere and there's a redhead nearby, I know it instantly. I pick it up on my radar.
And my wife knows this. She also knows that she wants to look the way she wants, and that I shouldn't expect her to change anything. And I've always respected that. If she's more comfortable with short hair, and I like it long - she gets to have it short. She doesn't have to change anything.
But she did, and she did it just for me and no other reason. That was better than anything else.

LOL...the guys at work are saying your recommendations are gay, other than the sex and food
I'm not even going to read this whole thread, I'm just going to stop you right here and highlight the important words. Skip the other BS, you already know how to make the man happy.

Yeah...you really can't go wrong with that
And sex is free...for most of us...
I'd rather have a nice homecooked meal and good one on one time than any fancy/expensive gifts :shrug:
Save that stuff for christmas or a birthday if you HAVE to get it...Vday is just a good day to spend special time together

That's what I believe. It's not another Christmas. I don't want anything. Just spend a little time with me and tell me that you love me.
