I like to be surprised, if society is telling you to buy me flowers on a certain day, you’ve already lost

Same. Random flowers, dinners out, weekend getaways, gifts, etc are way better than the same day that every one expects it.

We went to Fresh Mkt to get our prime rib dinner. They were out even though we pre-ordered. They gave us the filet dinner with roses, choc strawberries, and sides... comped. Turned bad experience to a win for all.

Mine knows I’m going to fail that motherfricker everytime. Don’t say one thing and mean another with me. You will be disappointed. I refuse to play those childish arse games. There ain’t pussy out there good enough for that.

We don't do birthday or Christmas gifts either. We buy so much stuff and take so many trips that extra gifts would really kind of be a waste. The trip we took over the weekend just happened to fall around a birthday and Vday. We spent way more than we would have had we just celebrated the way other people do

Wife said the same shite this morning, I knew better than to do absolutely nothing. Took her out for Thai for lunch and now we are having steak and craft beers.

I learned when I was 20 not to forget Valentines. When I was in college I forgot about it, but my GF got me a bunch of stuff. When I showed up without a gift, she burst into tears and slammed the door on me. I felt terrible and vowed to never forget it again.

I’m off the hook every year because my wife is a chef at a fancy restaurant, this is one of their busiest nights of the year. I just write a really nice card that will make her cry and I’m good to go.

There's nothing like being in a relationship with a woman to disabuse a naive blue pilled man of his preconceptions. Men and women are not equal and women do not really want equality.

What they want are big presents, food,, and flowers on birthdays and holidays.

I don’t do cards, frick that. But I always get my wife something. These days I usually take one of my kids to pick it out so if it’s stupid as frick it’s at least something they chose. Works. Not saying don’t put in effort, but some effort every year and good effort occasionally is the way.
