Threesome. There's nothing more romantic than wanting to share the love you have for your girlfriend with a third party.

I had my first genuine sappy stupid romantic idea ever-
The girl I'm seeing goes to college about 2 hours from where I live, so I visit on the weekends usually.
She's a hard working student, studies too much

I'm writing her a book, illustrating it, making the binding, the works- and I'm having her friends set it up so that book ends up in her bag when she goes to the pub to meet her study group, which will be me.

If all goes according, I'm hoping she will be shocked, but happily so.

A question for the ladies: is it true that the key to winning a woman's heart is to be spontaneous and surprise them?

My bf and I took all the 'romance' outta valentine's day this time.
He got me some monitors (very nice ones), and I am taking him Karting.

You guys are really helpful helpful. Any womens want to chime in, what kind of V day stuff does it for you?
Well which one are you planning to spend V-Day with? If it's the anorexic...don't waste your money on a nice dinner...

If it's the psycho...get her some help...

HAHA...just kidding...

It depends on what the persons into...what kinda stuff does she like to do?

Personally I hate the pressure that media makes everyone feel, so simple does it for me. A nice dinner, flowers, bike parts, singing Zappa songs outside my balcony, etc.. I think the fact that you thought about is and planned SOMETHING speaks volumes. If she's unimpressed and complains, make her walk back home.

there you go! I once worked with this girl that was bragging about how her boyfriend handed her the sale ad for one of these low budget crappy jewelry stores and told her to pick anything for valentines day...then she was all so...what BIKE PARTS will YOU be getting...and I'll tell ya what...those XTR V brakes (this was YEARS ago when that was the hot stuff) were WAY better than some low grade crappy diamond necklace she picked...hahaha!

Put them in dresser drawers along with those awful candy hearts, too.

A warm bubble bath and a glass of wine waiting for my girl when she gets home from work usually sets the tone for the evening very nicely...
Last year I cooked, this year we're going out to eat. I think as long as you at least try and your efforts are genuine, you should be good to go. Dudes can't be expected to one up themselves every year. Oh, and girls love facials, manicures, etc., at least most girls. Check out your local day spa for more gifts idea.

Edit: not that kind of facial, you sick ba$tards.

This is a good one. I think I'm going to borrow this idea... Thanks, Morry. And yes, I intend to take all the credit for it.

(read: I'm too cheap to take my wife who has bore 3 of my demon spawn to a nice dinner) :D Just kidding...I don't think your children are demon spawn.
I neglected to mention that we're getting rid of the kids tomorrow night and cooking a nice steak dinner *together* and opening a bottle of '95 Bordeaux. :thumb: :sneaky:

But we're NOT celebrating Valentine's Day. :p

I dunno what, if anything, he will do for me, but I intend to suprise him a couple days earlier :D He's gone way out of his way to come down and help my folks out moving this weekend, and he knows they're using him for physical strength (neither of my folks are strong enough to move the big stuff around).
However, most of the details for the evenings I'm keeping to myself. :D

And in answer to an earlier question - yes, girls like creativity, spontaniety, and thoughtfulness. The cost is a non-issue...at least in the world I grew up in
However, in a previous life when I thought V-day wasn nothing more than a boorish holiday and a recipe for disaster ...anything at all was great ;). Now I view it as an excuse to spoil and have a lot of fun :devil:

I'm taking the wife out for a nice dinner Sunday, since she'll work late Monday. After dinner, I'll drop her off at home and go play hockey. :D

Definitely! I saw some of those candy hearts that were definitely not meant to be sent to grade school. The one that I remember was 'Let's f*'. Wonder if I could find those, that would really add some romantic sentiment. :evil: :monkey:

A couple of Valentine's Days ago, I gave my sweetie one of those magnet refrigerator poetry games called Dirty Talk. It's still up on the fridge and we're still using it.

Valentine's is a retarded Hallmark holiday. I say boycott.

Agreed...valentine day should be every day...not used as a day to make up for the rest of the year of lack of appreciation for a loved one...JMO....D
