My son's dad and I are still trying to work things out and we live apart but are "dating" now. He gave me this long speech about how he has not bought me a Valentine's Day gift ever and now that he is more mature and makes alot more money he will actually think about me and buy me something special. Well he brought the present over today as he works from 2-12:00 p.m. tommorrow and they were a fuzzy, pink pair of $7.99 slippers. I smiled nicely and commented on how comfortable they were, but in my mind I was like WTF! It took six years to get a present and I got slippers. I know it sounds ungrateful. So my friend and I were discussing the worst Valentine's Day gifts we ever got. Her ex-boyfriend never showed up for their dinner date and left a card in her mailbox the next day and said sorry I missed dinner, I will make up our dinner soon and I will even let you supersize it. She never answered his calls again. So, I am thinking my slippers look pretty good now. What is the worst (besides nothing at all) Valentine's day gift you ever got?

A re-gifted valentine's grab bag from a daycare where he worked. I didn't have much use for miniature plastic dinosaurs or pencils at the time.

That perches in the soul-
And sings the tune without words-
and never stops-at all...

The worst was when my ex told me the morning of Valentine's Day that he had a surprise planned.

All day at work I thought about what it might be. When I got home that evening, he didn't even say Happy Valentine's Day. Later when I gave him a card, he was like "oh s**t, I forgot" And that was that.

What a jerk.

I remember us talking about valentine's day gifts last year, as I have never had a valentine. Aside from in Elem. school when you have to buy everyone a card. Last year I got several "online" valentines, from you wonderful guys (and gals). Smiler

But this year I actually have a boyfriend, and we're going to dinner, at my favorite Italian restuarant and we'll see what if anything that I get. I have gotten him a little plastic red heart shaped thing with skittles in it (his favorite candy), I'm making him some goodies, choclate chip cookies, brownies, sugar cookies with red sprinkles, and I got him this little blue pillow thing that has a strap on it so you can hang it off of something and it says Prince on it. Oh and a v-day card that has a fortune on the front of it that says You will have great happiness and success (or something along those lines, will have to look at it again) and then on the inside it says, "In Bed". I thought it was funny but like a week ago we were talking about fortune cookies and he was telling me how you have to add In Bed to the end of the fortunes. So I think it'll be cute.
