Valentines Day

[xleggroll]

Hello my fellow Escapist friends, How was your Valentines Day for 2010? Did you take your girl out to dinner? Surprise her with a hundred roses? Shower her with presents as far as the eye could see? Or did you spend it by yourselves (to those that did, I'm sure you'll find someone next year!)?

Feel free to share stories past and present! I took the significant other out to a beautiful restaurant on the lake and ended the night with a couple hours of the ultra-romantic House of the Dead on my wii. What'd you guys do?

I spent Valentine Day alone. I had to work from 8:00 AM till 3:00 PM. After work though I curled up on my couch and played Mass Effect 2. Best Valentines Day I ever had.

Lucky, My 360 RRoD so I have yet to play it. First one was the best game I've ever played

I didn't actually know it was Valentine's day until my parents told me. That should tell you how my day was.

 

[NeutralDrow]

Valentine's Day? When was that?

*checks calendar*

Huh. Last week. It was all right, I guess.

I didn't know until my flatmate came back from dinner with his girlfriend and announced what a lovely valentines day it had been =/

I however spent that day conqering Rome

I sat around eating Ramen and watching The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.

I had the time of my life.

It was my grandmother's 80-something-th birthday. So I spent it with relatives. Not great but better than being alone, I suppose.

 

[Stormz]

Spent it alone. Just did what I do everyday. I don't care for Valentines day though I suppose that might change if I had a girlfriend.

 

[Skuffyshootster]

I spent it looking at porn.

In all seriousness, though, I don't plan on celebrating it even if I do get a girlfriend. It's a pointless holiday, and I have trouble understanding why everyone gets all frenzied about it.

I went to my friends valentines day singletons party and got really really drunk.
What I can remember of it was good though,
minus getting hit by a door (long story).

though i find Valentines Day to be immensely pointless.
Guys feel they need to treat their girl like a princess just 'cause it's Valentines day but see in all honesty?
if a guy is with a girl, he should make her feel special every single day of the year, not just because the calender tells him to.

Ditto. Didn't even realize it.

If it was anyone but you i'd probably be offended.

BUT Mcmuffin, you seem to be forgetting: I didnt spend the day getting injured by doors.[/I]

Sounds like an awesome day 364 days of the year. (The only bad day for that is national hooker/blow day February 31st). I suppose it is also pleasant on the other day as well.

Sexual intercourse or the genuine desire to show your affection...for sexual intercourse.

What about the people who spent a fuckton of money on Valentines day for their special someone. Should they dump that money every day? "Hello honey, happy You havent left me yet day!" Its a day for love and I support it...perhaps not the commercialization but for what it seems to be about, increasing chance of sexual intercourse and helping the species survive!

So true...so very very true.

If the girl was at all worth their time, she wouldn't need a "fuckton of money" spent on her.
simple as that. Getting over-priced teddy bears and cards and other shite doesn't endear a guy to me half as much as him doing things like coming over to my house to sit and watch movies when I'm not feeling too good, phoning me just to say goodnight, buying presents to do with little inside jokes or whatever. You obviously seem to think that all girls are won over by tacky "romantic" presents. Please credit it us with a little more class than that.

Believe me, if you need to spend a shitload of money on a girl to get her to like you, she isn't worth it.
