Is it normal that i'm spending valentine's day like this?

I want to spend Valentine's Day with my boyfriend in his basement eating chicken wings, playing video games, drinking a little wine and having sex. I wanted to buy some nice lingerie and maybe wear it while we're playing games to tease him a little. I just want it to be nice, intimate and fun!

I thought this would be a wonderful night, yet every girl (be it my mom or close friends) that I tell this idea looks at me like I have 3 heads. One told me that he wasn't going to enjoy it at all, which I find it odd, because it's a night that combines a lot of his favourite things. Another said that I was delusional for not wanting him to take me out and spoil me.

But why does everything have to be about the girl on Valentine's Day? Why can't I do something for my guy that he enjoys? Why do we have to go out and spend a bunch of money for one silly night? Is it normal that I want to do this with him? Or are these girls right?

    Hey, your family and friends are the ones with 3 heads.
    Nothing beats an intimate evening with one's bestest friend on Valentine's Day.
    I pity those who feel spending money is the only way to show someone how much you love them. You've got the right idea, girl. Keep on keeping on.

      You either just don't get it or you are just a cheap ass bum! It's not about how much you spend on someone you love, it's the thought that you went out of your way for someone you love and EARNED the money to either buy them something nice, be it expensive or not, or took them out to a nice restaurant (NOT Mickey-D's) or to a show or a movie or even for a weekend getaway. Sitting in a cellar playing kids games can be done on any old day, St Valentines day is a special holiday that comes only once per year and should be celebrated with someone you love the right way!

        OMG you are absolutely right. Valentine's day IS all about the money you spend, how could I have not seen that. Of course it has nothing about two people in love sharing a bit of time together ANY DAMN WAY THEY PLEASE.
        You are a total jerk who has accepted the whole financial hype the retail industry has sold to those simple minded people like you.
        As a self proclaimed 'Destroyerofbush' it's fucking obvious you haven't a clue about any other part of a woman other than her cunt, so I'd not embarrass myself so completely, by posting such inane crap.

          You misread my entire point you stupid twat, so go to school and LEARN HOW TO READ! And after reading your idiotic shit it doesn't surprise me how stupid, clueless and illiterate YOU obviously fucking are. And you CAN quit making excuses as to why your a cheap/poor bum! I said it is NOT about how much you spend or don't spend, it's the principle of it, you are obviously and inbred trailer trash retard and would get it being at the back of the food stamp line! If and when you love someone, REALLY love someone, and not just fake ass wannabe pretend bullshit kiddie puppy love or lust you WILL do ANYTHING for that person, no matter if it cost you $0, $1 or $100 or $1000 you do it for them and not for your own personal beliefs! And I will have your stupid assuming ass know for a FACT that I am the most ANTI corporate and ANTI commercialism and ANTI holiday fuck that has ever lived! I absolutely HATE holidays and hor bastardized they've all become, but that IS how it IS! Deal with it or go move to Russia ya fucking commie! And there you go showing YOUR TOTAL IGNORANCE you fucking reject! My screen name Destroyerofbush has absolutely NOTHING to do with any woman's cunt you dumb dopey dick! It's a nickname that was given to me many years ago after a 4-wheel ATV I was driving decided to no longer have any brakes til a neighbors prized $400 shrub jumped out in front of me! Who knew a lousy bush could even cost that much? Simple minded? You wish assface, I could never stoop to your level of simple or retarded so quit trying to compare ME to your family full of diseased circus elephants!

            You still sound like a frustrated 12 year old who still trying to figure out how to jack off.
            Good luck with all your brains and shit, 'cause it doesn't seem to be helping you communicate very well.
            No need to explain your screen name to me, little boy; I honestly do not give a crap.
            You are so funny when you get angry. I'm glad you've joined up little bush killer, I'll be lookin to rile you up some more. I, the great prognosticator, see further hissie fits a coming from little Destroyerofbushie.
            Bye for now, sweetie pie.

              Whats that fag? Your mom jerks off AIDS patients for a penny to support her vicious crack habit that started immediately once she got knocked up with your retarded ass by some unknown gay trucker? OK there pigmysailormoonfag, why dont you go run along back to the beauty parlor and get your nails done and stick your face back up your moms diseased puss where it belongs, cause we all know here that that IS probably the only puss you can ever get with your quarter inch killer and limited IQ! Bye fag shit licker!

      • You're absolutely right. I'm gonna dust off my body pillow, pop some TGI Friday's into the oven, and celebrate with an anime marathon after my mom goes to work. I'm taking this relationship to the next level.

    Who wants to go to a crowded restaurant with a bunch of other idiots who don't know how to show appreciation for their partner on a normal day? Sounds dreadful.

    I will have the best valentines gift ever this year. A true expression of love in the literal sense. Hopefully it doesn't arrive late!

      Thanks Howie :) Would be pretty cool if your little one came out on Valentine's Day! That would be the ultimate gift.

        His due date is Friday the 13th....which is kind of cool. And I would rather he didn't share his birthday with a silly holiday...a silly superstition is much better. :) But regardless, there will always be lots of chocolate around.

    Thats nobodies business but your own. Everyone has their own ideas of a good time and as long as you think he will enjoy it, thats all that matters.

    I don't believe in corporate holidays. If I did that seems like a practical way to spend one.

    That's great, go for it. He would definitely enjoy it. Much better than the traditional thing where you go on a walk in the park and then eat at some fancy place where the guy has to think of sappy romantic stuff to say and to dress like a funeral director XD

    Wish my girlfriend would do that. I'm sure she won't, she wants me to take her somewhere nice, maybe out of town. Good thing gas prices are low. Wish hotel prices would drop too XD

      Well hey, there's nothing wrong with a traditional Valentine's Day either! Some people like to keep it old school :)

    The only thing I'm really agreeing to is playing video games.
    But the whole idea seems great,a cozy warm basement(a gaming nest),chicken wings(I HATE IT!),video games(I LOVE IT),and the sex at the end,seems awesome.

    I would spend Valentines day differently and have a romantic dinner, and stuff like that, But if you really want to have it like that then go ahead and spend it the way you want to its up to you and you guy not you mom or friends you its your night your life take charge over it!

      Thanks :) We've been together for 4 years and as nice as it is to go out to a nice dinner with each other, we already do that without the excuse of Valentine's Day. I find being at home is a much more intimate setting, but that may just because my guy spoils me year round, not just on February 14th :p

      We don't have a house, not just yet. We both currently live at home so we migrate between houses (we practically live beside each other), plus his basement is completely renovated and it's more like an apartment, so it's actually very enjoyable to be down there! Surprisingly it's the warmest place in the house, because it's directly heated by a gas stove :)
