This day is friday, and my university closed on saturday...
So today I give choclates for all my best "girl-friend" (I didn't have any girlfriend yet), but I save the largest choclate for the one I have a crush......
And I still confused, what I have to say for her?!? that's why I create this thread:oops:
I hope you broke those jokesters teeth in. Boy or girl. People who do that are usually trying to deflect judgement on themselves.Quote:

To all the hopeless romantics of the Org. Good luck tomorrow and remember if you don't bed your women you get your man card revoked. ~;)but not really~!!!!!!
Look her straight in the eye and ask her to go somewhere. K.I.S.S.Quote:

A headlong charge - with a kiss, before doing something else is nearly a suicide..... a very same way when you charge a cavalry unit headlong into phalanx formations.....:laugh4:
My first girlfriend dumped me on Valentine's Day a few years ago (My main regret is that it happened after I spent a lot of money... :laugh4: ). Thankfully subsequent ones have gone better. :clown:
Mrs. Zim and I are rather lacking in funds this year but we have some plans...

Yes, Vuk
YAY! I AM STILL A MAN! (And on Valentines day, what luck!)

No offence to any women out there, but being a man is great, you gotta try it some time!
:yes:

YAY! I AM STILL A MAN!
Cool, I get my words now.... thanks....
Look Beefy, you shouldn't be sad. I meant that rose and everything on that card. :kiss:Quote:

Also, I've never gotten anything for valentines day, even when I had a girlfriend.
It's a capitalist money making sheme and if I had a girl she would be special all the time and not just one day a year...
Since I don't have a girl I can save some money either way. :2thumbsup:
Actually, it has its roots in old folk traditions, but is just exploited like everything else. People just need to use their brains and get a life. I am not saying that getting your girl flowers is a bad thing (my first girl loved them), but people get obsessed.Quote:

I have learned that the women I've been "with" (married, or girlfriend) expected something on Valentine's Day. A card, at minimum. I've forgotten a few times, and they've gotten a little pouty for a day or two - so I've learned to pay more attention.
Ms. K gets a nice card with her morning coffee, and a pajama-gram later, if the Post Office comes through.
Holy thrash Kukri! When did you resign as a mod? I had no idea. :P Did you get too busy?
though im jewish, in my school we do valentines day anyhow. the day is so removed from religion we (the kids at my school) think its ok to do.
i personally dont give out any pity chocolate. people may get the wrong idea. but i do give chocolate to the girls i liked. now that i have a gf, we just go on a date instead of chocolate.
tomorrow night were going to some fancy resturant.
Yeah. Re-starting uni next semester.Quote:

I hate this holiday. It's disgusting.

It doesn't help that I have no one, though; could be a motivating factor for my less than optimistic attitude.
Happy Valentine's day, nonetheless.
Gah...
Well... I got 2 pity lolipops today and a pity balloon today :smash:
As far for my plan:
Since everyone is "busy" with their respective gfs... I plan to play a lot of videogames tomorrow, maybe watching a movie.
It's now like a tradition! :smiley:
This should be the depressing thread.
Well I never had a girlfriend full stop :laugh4:Quote:

I'd send you a box of chocolates, but by the time it arrives in Nippon they'd probably be melted anyway V_V
Three cheers to the coolest Japanese guy of the internets!
Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!
Its ok. Its 21 degrees here. Chocolate doesn't melt below 26.Quote:

In my high school one can buy roses with some sort of note/message attached; these are sent to the appropriate official class mailboxes, and our OC teachers hand them out on the Homeroom day closest to Valentines (this year, it was today).
Let me tell ya, it's really amusing watching girls attempt to stuff their massive haul of flowers into their lockers. :laugh4:
Many even buy small bags from the school for the sole purpose of carrying the roses. :sweatdrop:
It should be noted that something like a quarter of the roses are from one guy to another guy, and half from one girl to another.
Valentine's Day is the senseless exploitation of a legitimate Saint's Feast Day. The only people who profit are card manufacturers, candy makers, and vain women.
I once had a friend who was so depressed and lonely on Valentine's Day he decided it would be possible to cheer himself up by taking the train to Darlington for the day.
Which, hopefully, is a note of encouragement for those Orgahs not expecting Valentines tomorrow. Just keep reminding yourself, "it could be worse. I could be in Darlington."
For the record, tomorrow I will be one half of one of those irritatingly smug happy couples. The plan is to go see a soppy rom com in the afternoon, followed by a fancy dinner. My smugness is somewhat tempered, however, by the facts that:
1) It will cost me an arm and a leg.
2) It will mean missing the rugby.~:mecry:
I'd like to officially ask ... Devastatin' Dave to be my Valentine. Please say you will, DD!
Was there ever any doubt Lover?Quote:

well, I have decided on what I am going to spend febuary 14th doing.(warning: wierd and unusual behavior included):
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Well... I have to run some errands, do some homework, study math and physics, watch 1 or2 episodes of band of brothers, play a campaign mission of band of brothers and o to the cinema with some friends to watch operation walkure.
The bad thing is... that I need to study, and I'm nto sure if its such a good idea to go to the cinema, oh well...
Who needs a gf when you have physics, chemistry and such.

Woke up. Worked 9 hours. Ate dinner. Showered. Watched TV. Posted on Org.
You know how my Valentines day started? I woke up in my shitty little apartment on the edge of town in Szeged, went to take a shower and found out that the water did not work, so I went to the kitchen sink, washed my face and hands, dressed, went to the supermarket to do some shopping. Went home and found out that the woman had taken advantage of my foriegner status and wrang my fish fingers up three times (They cost 900 Forints each), then settled down on my computer to Skype call my gf and tell her something romantic. She was not signed into Skype, so I logged onto my email to see what was up. She got her eye scratched by her stupid cat this morning when she was playing with it. She is gonna be ok, but right now she has to put crap into it and she says it hurts a tonne. Now I am gonna go do some romantic laundry, clean my bathroom in a romantic fashion, take a much needed romantic nap (I have been getting VERY little sleep lately), then finish the day off by doing my Magyarora homework.
(And if you think that is too much bad luck for a holiday, then you should have seen last Valentines day. We decided that we were gonna go to Romy's (It is a Nightengale that is locally very popular here and serves VERY good food). I go to her house to pick her up and she jumps into my arms and wedges her darned knee right into my darned testicles. I spent the rest of that night barely being able to move on her parents couch wishing that I could die, then she drove me home and wouldn't stop crying and apologizing. That was when I decided that Valentines day stinks.
I didn't make any of that up either. Valentines day really stinks.
Update: We went to Mucenae and Nemea (where Hercules killed the lion). There was no lion but we took the local wine road and went wine tasting in a recommended winemaker. We left with 9 bottles of wine :)
We have some cool pics. I ll make an album later...
I'm gonna kill you. :PQuote:

Today, I send a SMS to my girl, I ask her to go together for some windowshooping and eat together, we goes well, and I give a great treat for her... While her ask "Koq tumben lu ngajak gw jalan?" (Its so rarely you ask me for a date), I look directly into her eyes and said "Gw masih cowo! jadi gw pengen melewatin hari istimewa ini ama lu!!!" (I'M STILL A MAN (*.thx Vux!!!) So I just want to get this special day with you!!!) and I give her a flower.......
:laugh4:
Happy Valentine for me.......
And hope it was good day for everyone too......:2thumbsup:
My day - alternate between modding and debating the doctrine of predestination in the Backroom.
I'm a true romantic. :laugh4:
Wow, John Calvin will be proud of you...
So far...
1- Woke up witha headache at 10:00 am
2- Had some eggs for breakfast (I hate eggs)
3- Went to get a haircut
4- Went all the way downtown to buy a book I was assigned to read. They didn't have it, so I had to go to another library.
5- Go to the fruit store. To buy... fruit.
6- Came back to my home, watched some "band of brothers", and then played a mission of COH.
7- Got bored, so I'll go to get something to eat... alone.
Keep tuned :smiley:
Its called Singles Awareness Day for a reason...
My day was good, i just found out there was an artist called the teddybears and i like almost every song ive heard so far :grin:
I woke up went to football practice, but couldn't play because I'm injured. I then proceeded to go play FIFA '09 with a friend and get my butt kicked multiple times. I went home for lunch to find my mother was upset with me after she prepared a great lunch that I didn't get to eat right away (because I went to play FIFA with a friend).
I sit at home reading "The Logic of Life: The Rational Economics of an Irrational World", which is pretty good, but I'm a bit tired so I accidentally fall asleep for about an hour. This is absolutely horrible because I hate naps and haven't taken one in at least a year; I feel horribly disoriented and drowsy when I take them.
So then I'm home all alone because my dad's old friend is in town and my mother and sisters are seeing my grandparents and I was supposed to have dinner with a lady friend (it really is just a friend), but received no word from her (it was a tentative plan).
So here I am posting on WAF about my wonderful....and I mean wonderful Valentines day. :wall:
I decided to spend my Valentines Day spending time with all the other singles on the off topic section of an online forum dedicated to a brand of video games.
Your sad stories are nourishment to my black heart...oh do go on please!
Seriously now guys, less videogames and more girls...
Girls are a waste of time.

Went out with some family friends and hit on there duaghter/sister. She has a boyfriend but she wants me I can tell ~;)
You are one lucky dog you! A historically inclined woman in the heart of the origins of European culture and history. And from what I've read in other threads, fairly well off too ~;)Quote:

The old lady and I had planned to drop the kids off at my 3 year old daughter gym (she's our little gymnist) because they're having a parent's night out so you can drop off the kids before you run off and drop off some tadpoles (of course that wasn't gonna happen cuz Aunt Flow was still chillin in the swimming hole). So for the night I cleaned our pet rabbit's cage (no sexual innuendo), picked up my daughter's new dresser and carried the mutha up the stairs by me self, and took the old dresser to some friends of ours that are making the same life mistakes we did when we were younger. So next year, I'm cancelling this Halmark holiday BS and gettin torqued!!!:2thumbsup:
Just make it up with twice the normal amount of booty time tomorrow with your lady.
Stopped by Aunt Flow? I underestimated you Dave
Well... I went with some friends to watch operation Valkyrie ... it was ok. :smiley:
Me and my true love (ms. marijuana) spent a lovely afternoon, evening and night together... basically my usual valetines night...
After-Action Report: We don't usually 'do' Valentine's Day stuff other than a card. But this year, I'd won a few bucks on the Superbowl, so had some discretionary funds. Had the usual greeting card sitting by her coffee cup (also a 'funny' one from the cat, to her). "Oh, but I didn't get one for you. I was gonna...". "Don't give it another thought, Sweetie", sez I, "I knows ya luffs me. 'Sides, it's kinda a girlie sorta holiday, right?". "Okay".Quote:

So, even though she said "Okay.", I could see the fair-play wheel starting to spin in her adorable li'l head.
I went to work. She had the day off. About 1400 a txt msg arrives: "Home @ 4?". "No, 3 rtes 2day. Hm @ 6", I txt back. Twenty minutes later, another txt msg: "Guess wut UPS dropped off? Jammy-gram!!!". I respond: "LOL.LUV U" .
Cut to 1730. I finished up more quickly than I'd thought at work, and pulled into the driveway at home, only to see my Darlin' rushing toward her little car. "Six O'Clock, you said!" as she backs out and takes off, "Go clean up. I'll be right back." I shower, wondering 'what the...?'. She returns promptly at 1755, bag and bottle in hand.
"Sit", she orders, while laying out

Seafood Portofino & stuffed mushrooms, while uncorking a nice little Chianti. <---Kukri's fav meal.
She'd planned out and timed with precision this whole dinner affair (only to have my work schedule mess it up). She later explained that she'd hoped to meet me at the door with a cold can of beer, wearing the (flimsey) robe I'd got her from PajamaGram, and usher me into dinner.
Heck, she could'a handed me a can of corned beef hash, and I'd have appreciated it just as much.
I sure love that girl. Have no idea what she sees in me; but I'm grateful she hasn't kicked me out yet.
And that was my Valentine's Day, 2009.
What a lovely story Kukri. Apart from the texting part.
Is it that hard to key out proper words? :tongue:
LOL. I have fat thumbs and tiny keys on my ancient cellphone. So I used a pen to type 'em out, and resort to cell-speek.Quote:

wow... nice Valentines day account Kukrikhan
I'm in trouble this year - apparently an email-card and a phone call explaining that Valentines Day is actually just a commercialised holiday promoted by enviromentally destructive card making company's (hence the e-card) didn't pass muster
:thumbsdown:
"I thought I might go to Mukenai."
By the gods - I wish I were in Hellas, regardless of female attention!
Am I the only member of the forum who actually forgot there was a Valentine's Day, and it's date, until coming to this thread? My nephew's birthday is the 14th - I forgot Valentine and I forgot him too!
There are some miserable souls lurking this forum.. my my.. I remember the shallow days of Valentine in the High School yard, when I believed it to be a silly game that children grew above eventually.. ha!
If there is a virtuous soul who belittles the consumerism that surrounds these exploited shopping spree holidays, and who will easily present to me a gift in each day, and not on occasion - without falsehood - when this lovely creature of innocence and pretended blindness to the modern craze would exist - she's the wife for me!
good luck.Quote:

Recently I thought I had discovered such richness of soul in a girl my age.
However, when I was staying at the house of her family for a week, one day she returned from work with a jewelry box which she said a friend had found in an evicted residence.
She and her friend had divided the box up like loot.
I watched her fight playfully and girlishly with her sisters over gold and silver, and they became bitter, like dogs.
A brooch, of carefully carved wood in parts - possibly a valuable heirloom to someone, was cast out in the garbage because it was not fashionable enough.
At that moment I became once more disillusioned and disappointed with my age-group and with yet another girl whom I had focused myself upon. I am confident that I shall not find what I ask of a lady until I am much older.
I hope that I am incorrect.
Surely, a beautiful girl who is sought after by every boy in her school, and charming no doubt in her playfulness.
But she is disloyal, greedy and weak - and I want nothing more than to remain her friend and do what I can to make her a wiser being.
I do not want to give to her flowers on Valentines Day and hope she will do something physical with me.
Invited my cuttie at my place for diner (lasagna and delicious eggs with mayonnaise, everything home made), then we went to a gay bar in downtown.
Don't even ask.
Looks half of u are deppresed from Valentine, and half of u are happy with the Valentine....
I didn't have a gf, but yes a girl I like. We went to dance with our friends, but saw her once in the disco. Left the disco, and went to bed. It sucked. Big time. Huge time. She won't even notice that I'm interested in her, yet I stand looking at her like I was under trance for some secs. SHE DOESN'T EVER NOTICE!!!! !!!!
Gah?
Now, I don't know much about girls, but I'm pretty sure doing that is a bad idea...Quote:
I stand looking at her like I was under trance for some secs.
Took my gf to a murder scene from the Zodiac in San Fransisco. She loves the movie and I thought it'd be a great morbid date... and it was... :2thumbsup:
