Valentines 2 thread
 

We know we're not done with this yet. We've got 2 more weeks worth of material and valentines goodness to go through.

So, lets start this off with, What have you guys done in previous Valentine's days thats worked for you?

Slept in, if at all possible.

The one romantic Valentines day I had was before I we were married, when I was dating my wife.

We were living together at the time in her dinky apartment. She woke up before I did, ran a bath, and put flowerpetals in it, candles lit, the whole 9 yards. Came in wearing something very *ahem* nice, and we had a great morning. I spent a good portion of the day playing Final Fantasy 9 with my PS1 and screen, and she played Hello Kitty's Cube Frenzy on the regular playstation. Overall, a wonderful day.

Woke up the next day to find out she didn't take the flower petals out of the tub before draining the water. Had to call the landlord to get a plumber. Wow, it sucked.

We got the oddest looks from the plumber.

Wonder how long it'll take fifth to close this one down too. Spoilsport.:ninja:

Well, probably shortly after the turmoil caused by some of the stories told here.

Like mine!

Or maybe I'm not the only guy here who's dating a girl who's already with someone else and they know it, but I'm actually second fiddle which upsets me greatly because how much I love her, so on Valentine's Day I'll be sleeping alone again, just like 99% of the rest of the year and, oh yeah, we're all roomates.

Maybe.

The Wandering God

Leave it to Fifth to close a thread about an event still two weeks away.

TWG, I feel your pain man... While I'm not second fiddle, i've got the roommate problem going on. Hopefully it'll all work out soon, like before the 14th.

Considering the girl I really like just quit her job for another that's closer to where I live and that she seems to have more time for a personal life now, I think I may just ask her out on a valentines date.

EDIT: Or an even better idea would be to see if she wants to go to a concert of a band we both like two days later. Damn, I love my friends who keep me informed on this kind of stuff.

As I posted in the previous thread, I've had the best luck giving my valentine something that required thought and had a special meaning to it, such as that Montreal Expos cap.

Also:

You're not bitter at all, are you? :p

Unless my employment status changes for the better soon, V-Day is going to blow goats for me. I hate being limited in doing something special for the people I love based on finances.

I don't really have any ideas for this year. Almost 2 years of marriage and I guess we're both a little clueless on the romance side this far in. Woe.

Mmm...have to say, I've never had such a bad holiday that I've been reduced to blowing goats for fun. ~Zing!

Been there, done that. And I can tell you from experience to look at your schedule and do something fun. Not necessarily romantic, but fun.

What I mean by the schedule thing is to not do something exactly on Valentines Day. It's on a Wednesday, middle of the week. Wait until the weekend, and schedule something ahead. Less traffic, less people, more fun.

And what I mean by doing something fun, vs. doing something romantic is to go play pool or bowling, or just insert a favorite activity here. We did lasertag one year, that was great.

For our anniversary (which happens in July, therefore much warmer weather), we went canoing down one of the local rivers. It was a blast, and pretty too.

Dinner and a movie is nice, when it's spontaneous. When it's expected, it can suck.

You will notice that I said that "V-Day will blow goats FOR me." I will not be blowing the afforementioned goats.

Come to think of it, though, I can't imagine a male who wouldn't appreciate an act of oral appreciation for V-Day.

LC if only the admins would let me put one more line in my sig...
Yeah, that would be right in there in BOLD.

As for the dreaded V-Day, I think its so damn hyped up you can destroy yourself with expectations, so woe not and expect nothing but time spent with a loved one.

Aww...c'mon. I'm married, don't tease me like that :shifty:

heh that reminds me of something I did two years ago.

So its February 14, 2005. Valentines Day! And wouldn't you know it, I'm single, and I'm a geek. Now, I've never had a girlfriend at this point in my life. And Well, I felt like making the most of my day so I pull out a piece of paper and a marker and I write on it. Then comes the issue of taping it to myself. I go to my morning Government teacher and he kindly gives me the tape after laughing in amusement at my sign. Now, I go through a bit of the day and one of my friends, a she mind you, is awefully perturbed by this sign all day. She keeps trying to rip it off me. She keeps failing as I just put it back. At lunchtime I'm walking through the cafeteria and a girl walks up to me. Pretty cute too. She asks me "Is that sign for real?" I nod my head, and she kisses me on the cheek. Thats right. THE CHEEK. The "Kiss Me" sign was a success.

The next year, I had a girlfriend, Not the same girl or said perturbed friend, so I couldn't do it. But this year, I'm back out there.

And Ladies, I'm SINGLE!

Nothing has ever worked for me, nor will it in the near future. I'm not "gangsta enouhg fo da hos" in my area, so I genereally avoid everyone and everything on Vday.

In Manitoba?! You come to Chicago, then we'll talk.

I went to a shooting range and used .22 caliber bullets to shoot out the outline of a heart. Then claimed it was "modern cupid" when I gave it to my girlfriend of the time.

Yeah so I just got burned on my Valentines plans...so I'll be joining all the rest of th single NPFers pretending its just another Wednesday and crying on the inside...*sniffle*

Awww...cheer up Demetrius. You can use my "kiss me" sign idea. It works wonders I tell ya. Wonders.

Maybe I'll try that tonight, go downtown get stupid then do stupid things...an excellent plan, yes! MWAHAHAHAHAHA...*sniffle*

Thanks for the cheer up though.

ON Valentine's day? Well, duh. Of course.

FOR Valentine's day? Well, considering I get that pretty often, I wouldn't really consider it a valid gift for any holiday. I mean. It's like "I'm going to do the same thing I do every day for Valentine's day!"

I totally wouldn't get away with giving an orgasm for V-day either. Same reason.

'course, I wouldn't care if I didn't get anything at all... so it wouldn't really bug me. Just pointing out that a guy who gets it all the time, isn't going to consider it all that great of a present for a special occassion, unless it's spiced up in some special way.

It's ok. I'll get twice as much oral sex, so you can live vicariously through me.

You get it every day? Your SO must really care about giving you what you enjoy. (I can hear the single male NPFers muttering "Lucky bastard" from here).

As for the oral, I'm sure that it would mean more to a male if his SO was giving him oral and enjoying it, rather than just doing it out of a sense of duty. *shrugs* I always thought a guy would take great pleasure in having his SO appreciate the unique characteristics of his penis with her mouth.

Oh, and Demetrius, I once saw a t-shirt that said, "Nothing says 'love' like oral."

Not everyday, but often enough. It's a general part of foreplay... so I probably would if I saw her every day.

Oh no, you're totally right on that.

Just that if it's commonplace, it doesn't get to be a present.

Like... to move away from the blatant sex talk, because as a moderator I'm gonna have to say we might be going a bit far for the general forums, there are kids around these parts (but feel free to take it off the forums. Wink wink. Nudge nudge.)... anyway, lots of guys will do a breakfast in bed thing for their SO as a 'gift' on special occassions.

It's like, one of those cliche things.

But, let's say your particular SO brought you breakfast in bed a few times a week, or even a few times a month, for no real reason other than that you enjoy it, and we'll say he enjoys cooking and being up before you.

Suddenly, it just doesn't fly as a special occassion present, 'cause he does it all the time. It's not 'special' though it is appreciated. ...Unless he does something like making your absolute favorite meal for your breakfast in bed and even then it probably wouldn't fly unless that breakfast is something time consuming and difficult to make, that he usually wouldn't do.

Yeah, I can see how it becomes a routine act of love over time, unless there's a special new twist, such as breakfast served on a pretty set of dishes that the SO has wanted for a very long time.

If it wasn't so blasted cold around February 14, I always thought it would be fun to have my SO act out a prearranged "kidnapping" to some place with special significance to both of us.

Either way I'm DRUNK now, gonna stay drizunk as long as possible and avoid the girl of my dreams who happens to be my roommate as long as possible... Oral is waaaay outta the picture and I care about all of t so much I wish I didn't live where I do so next week I'll be at my parent's avoiding things as much as posible.

If I had the money, I'd be my own valentine and treat myself to a fancy spa day. It's kind of like getting drunk, but without the nasty hangover and the one-night stand in my bed the next morning. I'd also want to do the cooking and dessert for my friends, as I had originally planned to do when I was delusional enough to think I'd have a job secured by February 1.

If money were no object, what would you like to do, for yourself or someone else, on Valentine's Day?

Buy a bunch of hookers. For life. Marry them all.

Bunch of hookers could also be easily replaced with "cute girl" and "them all" replaced with "her".

Well, I got a date with the girl I mentioned earlier. Now I just need to figure out whether to give her the stolen stop sign or the condom rose for V-day. Can someone help me with this decision?

The most romantic valentines thing i ever did was.... when i was dating a girl who lived in a rural area, her neighbors owned a ranch. before valentines I learned how to ride, Borrowed full plate mail from a friend (the whole silver shining plate mail ensemble) and bought two longstem dozen roses. On the day in question I went, borrowed the neighbors snow white horse, wearing plate mail with 2 dozen roses astride a white horse i rode up to her house. we had a romantic ride through the countryside and then moved into a romantic evening. graceful, majestic, classic romantic. didn't stop her from dumping me 3 months later, But it's probably the most romantic thing i'll ever do in my life.

Geez, it must be a success year or something, looks like I may not be alone this V Day after all. Shit, that means no chinese buffet! :(

You could be a bastard and bring the girl to the chinese buffet with all your single friends.

Hey, that could actually be fun! :D

I might as well just go all out and find another girl, so I can go to the buffet with one for each arm.

Happy Valentines/ Singles Awareness Day guys!

Yay!! I hate my life! Happy All Alone Day guys!!

Alone as well...altho' I did just get a copy of FF6 Advance.

Anyone know a state where you can marry a role-playing game? (Or two or three. I'd hate to break FFIVA's heart, and Chrono Trigger and I have been together like forever.)

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Oh, it's today? Damn.
 

I had such big plans! Like, buying Kero so my house doesn't freeze, and playing CS, now what am I going to do? Now I have too...

oh... wait... nevermind. No need to change my plans.

Thanks for the reminder. Happy WFC day, everyone.

Or perhaps it's "Happy Emo Day"? (Could that be an Oxymoron?)

Ah well, wake me up in 14 hours.

Edit: I'm afraid that my above comments no-longer apply, because it's FRICKEN SNOWING!! SOMEONE DOES LOVE ME!

I hate Vday, it just reminds me of how ugly and undesireable I am, and how I'm never going to have a girlfriend. And how I have to see all the whores at my school go to the bathroom with the gangsta guys.

This holiday really only applies to those of us who are already paired up. For the rest of us, it's just Wednesday. Tomorrow, though: Singles Awareness Day. I'll be handing out cards that say, "Happy SAD."

happy wednesday everybody!

Ok, you really need to stop being an emo bastard about this.
Etc.

We get it. You need to relax about this and move on. If you were that ugly, you wouldn't show anyone what you looked like (the video in your sig) You really need to stop worrying so much about your appearence.

Finally, someone said it. and anyway, im sure that plenty of people would go out with you, provided you ask them.

REALLY LONG POEM WRITTEN.

HOTLINKING HERE.

happy Valentines day, Singles Awareness day, and "Here's some candy, sleep with me!" Day!

It's shaping up to be a beautiful wednesday.

Ho hum. Another Wendsday.

It wouldn't irk me so bad if I wasn't simply living in the barren land of interesting women. Maybe I should pick up bar hopping.

Even if one ignores the fact that I don't have a girlfriend, V-day will turn out fairly boring anyway. I'm snowed in at my house; snowdrifts a couple feet high and whatnot.

Hmmm.... Utah?

But if you find that place, let me know 'cuz I'm movin' there too. Just as soon as I decide whether I should ask FF12 or Devil May Cry to tie the knot. We've been through so much together...

Yeah yeah, sorry, but for the record, that was done almost 2 years ago, I'ne got dramatically worse since then. I'm just pissed becasue on SAD, all the single kids have to do a presentation or some shit about why its okay to be single, and I am not looking forward to that at all.

No you don't. I'm just handing out candy to all my frineds who are also single, and snubbing the ones with girlfriends/boyfriends.

that sounds really, really stupid... Wait, do you mean thay have to have a reason, or that they actually have to do a presentation for school?

Heh, I just got done helping my friend give out Gondola Rides at my schools "reflection Pool". It was going good. We gave out like 12 rides until we capsized. Seriously, all you guys need is a little ingenuity and confidence.;)

Happy Valentine`s Day.

Today sucks! Enjoy.

Bullshit something? Or, just stand up and present yourself as ``The single that doesn`t give a shit about what anyone else has to say about Valentine`s Day.``

Or make them deny it`s that holiday themselves, that`s always fun.


PS I find it stupid that school`s are trying to get in on Valentine`s Day when half the time they throw a pissfit about people kissing each other in the hallways.

Well, luckily, the student council's Vday/SAD plans were shut down, and I'm glad, cause they go class to class and find the people that are obviously single, and have us state why we chos that. I didnt chose to be single, I just dont have qualities a high school girl finds desireable.

Okay...either you need to stop lusting after the "whores," or you need to stop thinking of girls in general as whores. Even those of us females with limited intelligence can pick up on that kind of self-defeating attitude.

That being said, Happy VD! :p

I bought myself a rose, went out to lunch with my mom, and was a test subject for the local medical school. I recommend everything but the test subject bit for my fellow unattached NPFers on this fine, glorious, snow-covered VD.

Did you just wish him a happy venereal disease? 'Cause, well, that's kinda hard to do when he's so ugly that even the whores turn down his bling.

I mean, even ignoring the whole happy disease thing...

Whats wrong with being a test subject? Have they given you aids or something?

Today, I got a cake during lunch, as is the custom of our school during VD, and I'm going to have steak later tonight via mom cooking.

Happy Wednesday! :p

EDIT: Up where I live it's extremely rare to see snow in any month, let alone Valentines day, so I can't have a snow-covered VD.

...Still have my DS though...

I watched a bunch of guys beat up one of the gay kids at my school. It was unpleasant. I then went home and sat on my ass all evening writing the greatest story ever. Best Vday yet, and I wasnt ridiculed for my lack of a girlfriend this year too.

My first V-Day I didn't consider myself single went so awesome. Also it was snowing early this morning and my hair actually froze.

LoJ stop being a pussy, chicks in high school suck for the most part, but if you're that concerned look around a bit and I'm sure that there are actual nice girls who aren't into the HS thing. They are the girls that are actually worth spending time with and are the girls who are most likely to actually look beyond shallow gangsta shit. Going back to my first point; stop being a pussy, if you want something you've gotta get out and risk something, show some confidence in your damn skills and lose that self defeating attitude. Chicks can smell that stench from 3,000 miles away.

I have spent my V-Day holed up in my house with my roomies, drunk as a skunk watching movies and Southpark, all in all not too bad.

But did you write the epic tale of Donald Trump going to the Shire to buy somones graphing calculator for five dollars? I THINK NOT!

My mom and dad forgot to decide who was getting me and my sister Valentine's Day presents this year, so we ended up getting one from each of them. There's a box of Russel Stovers and a box of Ferrero Rochers on my desk and I am a happy, happy girl. So aside from the weather being crappy and school being a bitch, it was a pretty good Valentine's day.

You get Vday presents from your parents? Weird. I guess that's how it works in your family. My parents just go out and leave me to babysit the bitch (sister) and make sure the blob (obese cat) doesn't pee on stuff. I ended up playing God Hand and writing all night. It was quiet and enjoyable.

Well, I just spent my Valentine's Day holed up in the basement with my parents so that my younger brother could spend four and-a-half hours upstairs with his girlfriend, I assume to 'romance the pants' off of her.

Lucky little bastard. He makes me proud, jealousy aside.

Go Jake!

Nah, it was Happy Valentine's Day. I normally say "Happy V-Day," but saying "Happy VD" reflects my warped sense of humor and the idea that not everyone enjoys Valentine's Day...just as not everyone enjoys venereal disease.

But hey, if someone's got venereal disease, that person can have the satisfaction of knowing that he got laid at least once. :p

Nope, that would have been both illegal and unethical.

No, I got to be the first pelvic exam for four very lucky first year medical students. Their professor, who is also an FP/OB/GYN doctor, did the first exam, and then they followed suit. It was actually quite funny, and we all appreciated the irony of multiple female pelvic exams on that very special day. :D

Well, at least your "special friend" got some attention.

I got UHF for Valentine's Day.

Best. Valentine's Day gift. EVER!

Happily, it was the first time I'd ever seen it, and I was pretty trashed.

The Wandering God

I'd make a gangbang joke, but we're already past post limit.

So please, insert your own multiple penetrational humor here.
