tell me your best ,worst ,funny ,strange .or romantic presents you've ever had on valentines day :love: :love:love: ::love::love:

my ex bought me a very horrible and cheap plastic rose - guess thats part of the reason he's an ex!

once stayed in a hotel for a romantic break and was presented with a chocolate rose on a plastic stem! It went straight in the bin!

My partner once carved me a perfect smooth round heart out of a piece of yew wood , so it's like "I love yew".I think thats the nicest valentine gift I've ever had,and completely unique.

Nothing.No card or pressy. :(

I don't think I've ever had anything thats been particularly nice! Or particularly bad! Just "acceptable" :roll: And I like things one way or the other! lol!

If a fella ever cooked me a meal for valentines and tried to get everything right, then I'd appreciate it so much more than just taking me to a restaurant of my choosing and picking up the bill... Thoughtless!

Not for me either, although to be honest I don't believe in Valentine's Day, IMO it was created by card shops in order to sell cards during the quiet period apart from birthdays between Christmas and Easter,

Tried?! Wheres the *trying* in going to a restaurant? The only people who have to try are the chef and the waiter! lol!

I agree with you here. I dont like Valentines Day either.Just another excuse for the card shops to rip people off.

Me and our lass are going to a restaurant for Valentines Day, and SHE'S paying! :heyhey: only kidding, it's the blokes turn as usual.

I'm trying to think of doing, or getting her something else aswell, but I'm clueless as to what women want. :confused:

Btw, ideas are welcome, but could ya PM 'em to me, as she vacants this place quite a lot. :D :D :D

PM Me and I'll tell you exactly what you can do to blow her mind.


Man, that sounded dirty... :hihi:

Well, you know, I am a woman and I come across as all high maintenance, but really its the little things that count :D

Im going to be watching this thread very closely. I need ideas, I dont have a clue what to get!
The dead sparrow I gave her last year didnt go down very well, and as for the cabbage the year before...That was a disaster.

Btw, ideas are welcome, but could ya PM 'em to me, as she vacants this place quite a lot. :D :D :D

Just give her money, thats all she wants.!!!!!

The newer the relationship, the more likely you are to fall back on Valentine's Day clichés. You tend to become more imaginative later on, if you can still be bothered :hihi: . Actually, thinking about it, the Valentine's Day clichés tend to reappear once you stop bothering too :( .

PM Me and I'll tell you exactly what you can do to blow her mind.

Too right it did! ;)

A gust of wind would blow her AWAY hopefully, then I wouldn't have to do owt! :D

Ok, plan B... :rolleyes:

I want to blow my other halfs mind too!




For under a quid

I think that a series of little things would really do it for me...
Ideally, I'd wake up with a card on my doormat... Go about the daily grind then find a note in my bag, from my special one... Then come home to find that he'd popped by to place a rose on my pillow, and him in the kitchen cooking my tea! Followed by a lovely bath with rose petals and candlelight... Thats my idea of bliss! No need for restaurants/gifts. Just do that and my heart will be yours! :D

I'll PM Scarbs :D Shhh now! :wink: :wink:

*Takes notes* :D

This is gonna be fun! :hihi:

Is it just me or is this thread concentrating on what women do or do not want on feb 14th? how about us guys?

It may be boring but me and my wife decided years ago that on 14th Feb a card will do, no need to go mad. But I still get her the odd present (odd as in an ornamental giant snail) here and there just when I spot something I think she'd like. She does the same for me, we don't need a "Hallmark" day to prove our feelings for each other.

You and the rest of the male population mate :|

A few years ago I received a (very small) half-empty bottle of whisky and a rather forlorn looking rose he'd torn out of someone's garden.

He then proceeded to drink the whisky himself whilst I cut my finger on one of the rose's thorns.

Who said romance was dead eh? :hihi:

He's now an ex :D

Last year i promised to take my wife somewhere she'd never been.............................................. ....the kitchen!!!

i got a full adidas tracksuit a couple of years ago from an ex :rolleyes:

a missy elliot one, proper flurescent, kinda camo but fluro orange, pink and white so not much chance of successfully hiding in the bushes!!

i wear it for decorating nowadays!

it was quite expensive tho, bout £100 if i remember correctly!

Classy! What are you expecting this year - a burberry cap and a sovereign ring?

A freshly caught trout from Ladybower Resevoir, I didnt know wether to laugh or cry. :gag: :suspect:

I remember getting a cake with yellow icing which was covered with Chubba Chup lollies...I was thrilled to bits!

Doesn't take much to please me.

I got a lot of great valentines presents off my other half and 1 absolutly crap one.The worst present he got me was about 4 year ago and it was a ironing bored from argos that is small and can be used on worktops.(flattered i think not).The best was well everything else he has ever got me lol charlie.

My sister got the worst V-Day gift ever: It came through the mail from her then-boyfriend who was working for the Pentagon. It was a transparent blouse from Victoria's Secret... unfortunately, there was a sales receipt inside indicating that he'd bought TWO of the same item.

To this day, she has no idea who got the second see-through blouse!:suspect:


Best present I ever got from a beau: A parafoil, one of those big, beautiful kites made of colorful ripstop nylon fabric. It was very romantic because we used to fly kites together when we first started dating. We took it on vacation and flew it over the ocean on a Florida beach.:love:
