    I'm single, so I'm going to wait until the day after to buy myself some discounted wine and chocolate. Maybe I'll take myself out to dinner.

    Basically: Hot bath + discount wine + discount chocolate + me = I don't need anybody to feel really nice. :love:

    In a relationship, but not doing anything special cause we both think V-day is stupid.

    If every day was special no days would be special. Once a month on a random day I think is good. It is just enough to make the wife feel good but not too much so that she expects it.

    Agreed! It doesn't even half to be every month! Once every 2-3 months would be great for me! :( My hubby is soooo not a romantic kind of guy! He doesn't know what romance is. He gets me the typical card or stuffed animal or flowers, which is nice, but I would love to go out! I'm stuck at home with my kids most of the time. I work part time, (sort of) but I want to go out and dress up, and have some quality time!!! Hopefully we'll get to find a babysitter. I won't get to do much for V day, but the weekend after would be fine for me! :D

    We have done separate things not on the day, like the chocolate tour or event tickets. If he planned something that would be fine

    I feel it is a man responsiability to plan out things and a lot ask your girl friend or wife her ideas, I have seen a lot of men not make decision on a date. Men need to stand up and be accountable to there girlfriend or wife.

    Well, I'm kind of the natural event planner in our relationship. He probably plans more day to day things, but I plan the big stuff, like the vacation we took together and his upcoming trip to see me while I volunteer abroad for 6 weeks. I enjoy that kind of planning immensely, and I love surprising him too

    Single. I plan on being annoying the entire day and giving evil looks to any happy couples that I see. :sad:

    I've been married for 15 years but my husband is in the Navy so he is off the hook this year. I made him a deployment kit. It has photos of my in a sailor dress and hat and a photo holder of various photos he has never seen with silly saying and quotes. Plus I made a memory book and calendar. All things he can take on the submarine with him when he is alone. I have spent countless hours scrapbooking. I am an event planner and cook so its never been a fair race for him lol. If I were to get one thing it would be a day off! So I dont have to run errands, cook dinner, do the laundry, etc. etc. and just relax. Anything he does that shows he is thinking of me for more then 5 seconds at FTD and Im good. :)

    Nothing, as usual; I think that date is overestimated... although it's gonna be the first valentine's as a single person I've had in a while :( At work (an English-teaching center) there's gonna be candygram, gift exchanges and I don't know what else :p

    I'm going to browse various stores to make a note of which chocolate and red-themed items I'll buy on sale on the 15th. By the time I get them, it'll be only 364 days until Valentines Day- it's never too early to start shopping!

    Married. He will probably not acknowledge it is a special day. Not a bad husband just doesn't really care about stuff. Oh well. I will get him a sweet gift and card, hide it away and give it to him if he remembers. If not, I don't want to make an *kitten* out of myself.

    Nothing because i already thanked hubby for recent revamp of my car and told him forget about vday.
    Also already bought myself jewelry trinket as reward for sticking to weight loss efforts.
    Also already bought myself chocolate covered strawberries just for fun.
    What could possibly be left?

    We have three small kids and so we will be doing a indoor pinic. I am planning it, me and my hubby switch it every year. He had last year, I have this year. We work our annivsary the same way. :) We will be celebrating 10 years of marrage in may and we have been togather for 14years. It's special to us to celebrate love in general, the kids make valentines for family, and we talk about how important family is. We do try to do something speical every month since it is hard to get alone time or even talk with the kids around. They are 5,3,2 and ask lots of why questions. :P

    I have a great group of friends and we would get togather when we were single on v-day. We'd each bring something great to eat. We'd drink wine, eat chocolate and enjoy each other's company. Good times.
