First, I have to say this "Holiday" is potentially very dangerous. What do you get for your significant other and is it enough to make/keep them happy? Candy, flowers, jewelry, etc. I am taking a risk this year by NOT getting any of these, but in an attempt to keep my ass off of the couch I will be getting my wife a day at the spa (without the kids

) So my question is what are you getting and do you think this holiday is an excuse for our significant others to expect expensive stuff. (my answer is yes)

i like to do different things....not cliche stuff...the spa idea you have is a cool idea...

for me, ive given my girl a riddle to solve. she has 24 hours to crack it. once she does, she gets her gift

me and my girl are in a relatively new relationship so i wanna do something not too far out there but yet "cute". Im planning on getting up pretty early before work tomorrow and driving to her house (30 min away and out of my way to work lol) and just leaving her a white rose and a note on her car... cause she loves white roses and i'll write some cute stuff in the note... she'll get it when she goes to her car to go to class in the morning not expecting it... she likes it when i do "cute" stuff like that...

valentines day is gay. its so annoying going to school that day with everyone all over eachother. makes me wanna kill someone. (never had a girlfriend around this time of year, idk if that makes me lucky or not, lol)

The holiday is bs.

Ross86 · 02-13-2008, 06:52 PM

If you didn't have a girlfriend on Valentine's Day, then I suppose you didn't get lucky.

I agree with you Kane. What do we have? The Super Bowl? Come on...most guys I know get bitched at by their girlfriends at some point on Bowl weekend. Because we don't have a holiday, I say get rid of Valentine's Day.

	TALO's Sig:"But when do you actually grow? Well, we don't grow in the gym. In the gym, we destroy. We tear down the body. We only grow when we are recovering. That's right, I said recovery. I see it all the time--people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"
