lol.....it depends on what mood hes in to be a caveman
Don't get me wrong, he does have an occasional romantic thought, last night he went to Asda and came home bearing cream cakes he doesn't like cream cakes, and if he buys me chocolate, I know its all for me, cause he hates the stuff! Its a very rare occurance though.

....still he'll forget valentines day, not sure if its in his vocab.

Commercialised pain in the ****. That was my view when I was in a relationship... it remains my view now that I'm not.

I think I'll stay in and watch action and sci-fi films or something. The streets are no place for the bitter on valentines day.

New years and valentines day are pretty much the main 'celebrations' that I can completely avoid. Halloween is the only one I look forward to.

Telll you what I do like, when my little boy has been at school and hes made somethinghe comes out of school with whatever it is that he has made dangling from his hand, usually half squashed under his lunch bag and book bag. He says ''its valentines day on so and so, and we've been making these''......well i'm not certain what it is sometimes, and the writing is just about readable, but it brings a big hug and a smile

Sometimes we make an affort, sometimes we don't. Not fussed either way- TBH I'd rather have the odd surprise during the year than a bunch of flowers on that particular day.

it's a right royal pain in the a*se.

Evie M is away that week, so we thought we'd have a weekend on the bikes and go to our usual favourite hotel in Wales, nice long run on the bikes.
But it's flippin Valentines Day, so I'm going to struggle to get booked in, and find somewhere to eat, so we'll end up paying a fortune to eat in the hotel.
grrrrrrrr.

Blimey, me and Izi will be together on Valentines day. We're going from a knackered single bed to my new effing great kig bed, so we'll have that weekend in pure comfort
We'll have a bottle of wine, cook something nice and have a relaxing day together. But we do that when we're together anyway
