Valentine's day is horrible corporate bullshit

I have a date tonight, with a girl I'm not really into.

Cute, but She's kinda simple and really boring. And 3 kids...

But I can't ditch her for valentines day though.

*Sigh.*

 

i'm happy that it was of use to someone. but this fucking day ends up such a bone of contention that my friends and the women in my family end up calling me up, COMPLAINING that they didn't get their flowers, card, foot rub, blah blah blah. jeez, man. i never hear the guys complaining, except that they're nagged and dragged into blowing their money on a totally arbitrary day "or else." oh, i BUGS ME SO BAD.

i mean, if your man is good to you every other day, he's suddenly going to be a thoughtless and selfish jerk because he didn't buy you some freaking chocolates and a CARD? pfft. fuckit.

bullshit like this is why there's so many miserable women out there. unrealistic and unfair expectations.

 

So you've got your own private Valentine's Day to look forward to when he gets back. Lucky you.

 

i agree-it is corporate bullshit, and i don't like the expectations that come along with it.
but i can also see how its nice to just do something for your SO... yet that should be something not dictated by a day...
sponteneity is fun

although i wasnt complaining last night when my man took me out to get beers, then sushi and sake, then *ice cream* and THEN we went to the finnish saunas!



it was really sweet and thoughtful of him..

 

Hahaha...Good for you !

 

Hahaha...Have fun !!!!


Wait...she has three kids ? :huh:
I hope she doesnt bring them with her.

 

Lode, so what are you going to do for your date?

and why did you made a vday date with someone you're not into?

 

I don't think romance should be forced either. I just like to throw around some occasions for romance.

Last year I got my then girlfriend out to dinner and bought her flowers and fireworks. We sat around drinking all night and set off a lot of fireworks. Beautiful night.

 

well, it's along the lines of "happy valentine's day."

what's going to suck major ass is all the phone calls from the pissed off women in the family who didn't get shit (and who didn't really give their men anythin they wanted, either. how many men want a stupid little teddy bear with a fucking balloon, REALLY?) it's unfair and ugly. simgle people feeling painfully alone, over-expectant women competing in offices to see who gets the biggest flowers, stressed out men buying gifts they don't really feel like buying, but have to buy anyway, blah blah blah. it's nice if someone feels like doing something sweet, but the obligations and disappointments make a mockery of the sentiment.

 

Dinner. Doing it early, and then ice skating.

And I've just been hanging out with this girl at work and gone out with her a few times. She's nice and all.

And not to be a jerk, but like I said, she's really dull.

 

is her name shana?

 

I'd love a girl wearing one with a packet of extresensitive balloons.

 

well, that'd be alright, then.

 

Awww, ica skating. cute. ice skating exists in Texas??

 

You make my heart swoon...

 

will you be my valentine? we'll go blow up flower shops and hallmark stores everywhere. the men shall call us "THE VALENTINE AVENGERS!!"

 

we can wear this costume: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/li...ews.html?in_article_id=514424&in_page_id=1773

And uh, it is like 65, so we might be swimming.
