Ever told your wife/SO that Valentine’s Day is just a made up holiday to sell cards?

And gifts and whatnot for card companies to make money?

I did it a few years ago, and I’ll never live it down. Got some flowers, some chocolates, and a nice dinner tonight baws.

Hope you baws get some tonight.

We're going to Waffle House tonight. Maybe find a S/O that isn't so needy?

I just texted my husband that I’m stopping at Walgreens on my way home from work and did he need anything.


His reply “Buy yourself a V day card”

And now he is texting me about vday being a BS holiday

The fact I’m alive and posting this says that I’ve never told my wife this.

This morning.. I told her it was a ridiculous holiday meant for children and for flower shops to charge double...

He’s just joking with me.

I told him I was worth $7.99 for a card

Then he couldn’t believe that’s how much a card costs now(he is bad at paying attention to prices of small stuff)

Yessir. But she doesn't really care all that much about Valentine's Day to begin with.

If I get married again, it’ll be to one who doesn’t observe Valentine’s Day.

I not only told her I thought it was a stupid holiday, but completely blew it off a few years ago. Still trying to get rid of the twitch I get when I hear, “Val”

Damn....7.99? frick me. Shows you how long it has been since I bought a card.

I'm good with remembering prices. I do most of the shopping. Except the cleaning supplies. Not my gig.
