Valentines was takeout Chinese and scrabble. But he let me win.
See, that sounds like a perfect VD date for me, except I'd rather win against a good opponent and thus feel victorious!
I've only ever dated someone two VDays in my life--in one, we were both out of town for work, and in the other, we broke up a few weeks later and it was kind of sucky.
I've spent pretty much all of Valentine's Day working. Not much of anything going on, except endless hours of grading.
Ugh, I'm sorry Sean. I hate Valentine's Day, too.
I'd give anything for one more lousy valentines day with dh. This has been hard.
smonster, what guys do for Valentine's Day is often covered by "never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence." I spent years with a bunch of guys in karate, many of whom were in relationships with women they loved, and every year I reminded them about Valentine's Day and several ended up buying flowers at Kroger's on the way home.
Enough people I don't like get in relationships that I can't see being single as a reflection of my worth by any scale I value.
It's just a thing.

Probably the hardest thing you'll ever deal with. One hopes.
Words still fail, Maria. I can't even imagine. If there's anything I can do...
I went to Costco and spent $100. And then I indulged myself in terrible, but awesome, food.
This is probably the first Valentine's Day in many years that I haven't been sad because I'm single. I ate chocolate truffles I bought for myself and otherwise pretty much didn't even think about it.
Entirely coincidentally, I messaged a guy on Geek2Geek.
