I think it’s a case of her settling for what she’s got so the expectations lowered re flash meals etc. Might get a takeaway though. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/KYqg3pYeaerc5lD_P7BR.gif) You’re clearly worshipped Cobs😉 I keep reminding her how lucky she is ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/KYqg3pYeaerc5lD_P7BR.gif)

You can't really anonymously text someone your undying love and affection..🤔 Not quite true Years ago we found a phone in the champagne tent at Ascot races , before the fancy screen locks etc Was obviously a ladies as had Penny or Tilly , some posh name on it on it and glittery stuff. We texted every male person in her index her undying love to them before handing it in behind the bar . Brilliant. The chaos that must have caused 😆 🤣 😂

What is the point? I’m set to spend a fortune on hotels, meals and flowers. Asked the Mrs to go halves and she wasn’t impressed. In this day and age though shouldn’t this kind of thing be a two way street? Equal opportunities perhaps? I know, I’m a right tight bastard Put it through ChatGPT to see what it came back with: ‘Badger is loved up still and wants everyone know. Of course he’s paying because he’s packed the sex helmet and sports goggles in the hope shit gets real!’

Im kinda lucky here.
My missus doesn't do valentines day and doesn't want a card.
She says i should love her everyday not just on valentines day.
In her opinion its ridiculous that flowers and a meal is price hiked for one day.
Cheapest day in the year for me for the last 9 years.
Shes a good un.
The only card i buy is for my bro as its his birthday on valentines day lol.

One year I told my wife Valentines is bollocks then took her out to a posh restaurant as a surprise on the 16th and told her “it’s just a Tuesday but I still love you immeasurably!’ She was happy as Larry and I had a 2 for 1 Spree voucher she remains unaware of so win win 👍

Yes it's another bit of fun that's turned into a commercial goldmine.
Other examples of this which have been imported are Baby Showers and Reveals. Both of these designed to con gullible fools into spending money before the event, the latter being to ensure said gullible fools buy the right stuff. Both also designed to attract people who will turn up with their nicely wrapped package because it would be rude not to.

New families need a lot and supportive friends can look at a list and decide what they want to get them. If you ask someone what they want on Valentine’s Day, Christmas or a Birthday, they’ll often give you a blank stare or start scouring the internet (i.e., they truly want nothing (and likely need less)).

It was summer so we are outside having a BBQ and what have you. It comes to the reveal bit and, rather than a pink or blue release into the air, a puff of brown powder enveloped the garden. Everyone sort of just looked at each other in a "what the fuck does that mean?" kind of way, proper confusing. Anyway, the mother walks into the middle of the back lawn, drops her knickers and births the most humongous shite you've ever laid your eyes on. Magnificent.

I’m sure mine will start with hope of a happy ending. There’ll be hints of it, the odd moment of excitement, but ultimately it’ll end in misery and a few tears as I fall asleep.
Fucking Stoke.

For those wanting a romantic poem...Try this.
" Here's to the girl that I love best, I love her best when she's undressed, I'd fuck her sitting, standing, lying, If she had wings I'd fuck her flying, And when she's dead and long forgotten, I'll dig her up and fuck her rotten."

Please pop the appropriate balloon Agreed. Get all your mates round, give em a swift lemonade in the kitchen then shout "it's a girl". Wait until they've finished then tell them to go, job's a good un.
