    I don't celebrate Valentine's day because I find nothing romantic about my SO having to be or do something romantic because it is mandated by a holiday and greeting card companies...


    That's what I like to say anyway, The real reason is because my birthday is two days later so I would rather focus on that. I'm narcissistic that way.

    Alos, dislike chocolate and always get left over gross valentine's day chocolate for my birthday. :grumble:

    I am german and maybe I am not good to tell what I think. I didnt mean expecting him change completely because I love him. I am sure there is something you do not like on your gf or bf so talking always can solve some problems

    Not on Valentine's Day. :laugh:

    I expect sex. All kinds and lots of it.

    My BF took the day off work and we're going to spend it in bed. Yup. We actually planned a day in bed together.

    Oh, and dinner. We're going to dinner but then it'll be back home and to bed again.

    He wants to see if we can make it fall off :laugh:

    FYI... Dinner can mean a man delivering pizza to you... in bed. Trust me on this.

    I've never had a girlfriend / date on Valentines day so I've gotten pretty lucky not putting up with all this crap so far!

    I would wait for another day to spring that on him or just talk to him about it now but tell him the things you love about him too. Relationships require give and take. Pretty sure no guy wants to be punched in the junk of Valentine's Day.

    Then don't give him a list. And don't wait until valentine's day to do it. Talk about your relationship every day. It's a work in progress, not a static thing. Any couple with longevity will tell you, it's more about the little things you learn to accept about each other than the things you think are awesome about each other. I love my husband with all my heart and have for 26 years, but there are things he does that drive me crazy. I don't ask him to change them; they are a part of who he is. I'd rather have him around, doing those things and driving me crazy, than doing them somewhere else with someone else.

    It is EXTREMELY important to me. I don't require expensive gifts or anything like that, but I do expect to be acknowledged and made to feel special in some shape, form or fashion.

    Talking about problems and issues in your relationship is a good idea.


    Giving him a list of HIS problems on a day where you are supposed to celebrate love, is NOT a good idea.

    Hello Dear All, for some people, valentine day is important but others it is not. I will just want from my boyfriend to do the list I will give him on Feb 14th. In this list, just there are some behaviors of him to change. what are your expectations from that day?

    What's on your list?

    Are these the same Chocolate Donuts that came up during confession today?

    If I got this list on any day, I would take extra joy in watching her eat her "chocolates."

    I'm boycotting Valentine's day this year, so I'll be spending it pretending it doesn't exist.
    Once I find that special someone maybe it'll be different next year:smooched:

    As for the list of things you want your BF to change, why on valentines day? :frown:

    Well it is my daughter's birthday so me and my little girl will be going to dinner and then the ballet. I never really celebrated the day before and now I do but not because its Valentines day but my daughter's birthday.

    It's my baby's bday too :heart:

    Your daughters have been put into the "Birthday on Christmas pool." Their future partners from here on out will combine their birthday/Valentine's Day festivities.

    A lifetime of pink and/or red gifts...
