So, I'm curious...
Do you CELEBRATE Valentine's day?
I know of couples who make a big deal of it, others who exchange small gifts, and others still who ignore the day all together. Jon and I are in between all of these scenarios...we've gone to a VDay dinner, exchanged small gifts, chocolates, and then done nothing at all. I suppose the more important thing is that you celebrate your love for each other every day, and not just ONE DAY OF THE YEAR! But as Feb 14th approaches, I'm curious to know how others celebrate, or if it's just mainly another commercialized holiday in hopes of selling cards, candies and trinkets....
COMMENT PLEASE!
3 2 SNAPS UP~YOU GO GIRL!:
AHHHHHH V-DAY!!!! This is a sore subject for me... So get ready for my little rant fest that is about to take place!
We never celebrate V-day. Why? I was told that it's to close to our anniversary which is the 16th. I agree to that...BUT.... we never celebrate our anniversary either. When I say we don't celebrate..I mean...NO CARD...NO NOTHING! I have to remind Jason that it's our anniversary or V-day and then he acts all pissed off about the fact that something has come up and he might have to shell out money! You know me...a card would be fine. I never ask him for much!! I have even suggested the Dollar tree! 2 cards for a $1!! LMAO Every year it's the same thing. NOTHING! We have gone out to eat once ...BUT...again it's because I tell him to take me. THAT IS NOT SPECIAL! Sometimes a person just wants to feel special! It's like this for everything that comes around. Birthday...Mother's Day...NOTHING! It would be nice for him to just say...HAPPY BIRTHDAY...but again NOTHING!
The hardest thing...was sitting at Bunco and listening to everyone complain about what there husband's did for them last Mother's Day! It was all I could do...not to scream....AT LEAST YOUR HUSBAND DID SOMETHING FOR YOU ...STOP COMPLAINING!!!!!!!
I try my best to not focus on holiday's. I try to look at them as just another day. I think for the most part ..over the last 6 years I have done a good job. Most women would have already knocked him over the head with a pan! LMAO
I know I sound mean and bitter. I can't help it...I'm just tired of everything. There is so much more...but this is not the place for that. Just please pray for us. We need it more than anyone knows!
Thanks for listening to my rant fest! I sure needed to get that off my chest as our anniversary comes around! LMAO
Our anniversary is Feb 10th, also close to Valentine's Day. We usually go out to eat for our anniversary and if we get each other anything, it counts for valentine's and anniversary. Sometimes we get each other something, sometimes not...it depends on if we have any money or not. It's usually not anything big whatever it is. Norman is BIG on cards, you know, so we usually at least get a card for each other. By the way, this coming Sunday will be our 18th anniversary!!!
Catfishjenkins, I'm sorry Jason isn't very thoughtful. You certainly deserve better! Maybe his big sister needs to jack him up a bit!!!!! Or maybe her husband needs to put a "bug" in his ear!
Thanks...
I will say...I love Jason very much. What I posted makes me sound so harsh and puts him down. He has his moments...like all men. I just wish he wasn't such a man when it came time for celebrating stuff! LMAO
