Valentines Day has just gone and everything get back to normal by now.However, there must be someone who received lots of flowers from her love one and many boxes of Chocolate as well.Of course ,someone might received great gifts such as jewelry , iphone, ipad,anything with a heart or many hearts on it, air tickets, house, car and money, a ballon, a card, or nothing,etc.from a her love one. Whatever it is. It is something to express a kind of love and make other happy as well. It would be tough day for a guy if he is not that rich . But actually it shouldn't be a problem if the lady really loves you but not your money or the value of your gift.Well, it really depends on the person anyway. Share with us about your feeling towards the "just gone" Valentines Day?

I'm actually just neutral with Valentine's day... My boyfriend and I never celebrate on the exact date, we had dinner a couple of days before, and my boyfriend gave me a new pair of running shoes about two weeks before Valentines day. Hehehe.

Lately I've been feeling a bit melancholy towards Valentine's Day. I guess it's the fact that nobody. not even my "best" friends gave me candy or a card for Valentine's Day. While everybody else is holding their teddy bears and candy and being a giddy. I'm alone just wishing that boy would come here and tell me "Happy Valentine's Day." I guess the reason why I'm so bitter about V-Day is because I don't have a valentine of my own and I never have for my years of living.

Well, sometimes a valentine can make a valentine day worse.Being alone can also be another way to celebrate valentine day.See what happen in thennext valentine day, then. There will always be hope. Maybe you can start thinking of some creative idea to celebrate your nextvalentine day, and when it comes, you may enjoy it more with the new valentine. How does it sound?

I'm in a long distance relationship,so ordered flowers online for delivery to my significant other,paying a service charge that included "On the Day" delivery..I had to work on the day itself,and today got an email from the company apologising for having failed to deliver the flowers as requested..offering a partial refund and a rescheduled delivery..a bit of an FML moment..

If I can't be there,I'd like to be able to show I care on the day,even by proxy..She got the flowers since and thanked Me for them,so,not all bad...

Oh, how could they do that? Well, at least you give us another creative idea for celebrate valentine day. No Flowers = unforgetable valentine day.I wish your valentine can understand that and won't be upset about it. Valentine day is gone anyway but you can do it better in next year.

I had a pretty good Valentine's Day this year. My hubby and I mostly celebrated over the weekend but he also did not let the actual day be forgotten! Over the weekend we went away for a day. We had dinner at our favorite restaurant (where we had our first date) and did some shopping. We exchanged cards and he got me flowers and a Willow Tree Figure (which I collect.) On the actual day we had no plans to celebrate but were sure to wish each other a Happy Valentine's Day and let each other know how much we love the other. My hubby was kind enough to surprise me by taking me out for dinner! I wasn't expecting it since we had technically already celebrated over the weekend! So it was a nice day overall. :-)

Mmmm....give your valentine a tree + surprised your valentine with some food = another happy valentine day. Another creative idea for valentine day celebration.But I wonder how can I carry a tree and walk around in the city before reaching to my valentine's hands.

I stayed with my mum and worked on a harvesting with her on Valentine's Day. My love one is really far away from me on that day and he wanted to send a flower like the past few years we've been together but it is impossible this time because I live in a village far from town. But we talked on the phone and we had a very nice conversation about ourselves hehe. I was still very happy and was not upset at all. As long as he still loves me as much as always then that is enough for my Valentine's. How was yours by the way?

Hi. wildlittlefan. I did not get anything for Valentine's Day from my husband. He did gave me a back rub while I was asleep at night. My sister got a bunch of things for Valentines Day though. Valentines Day should be everyday, not just only on days that society sees it as.

Yes, sleep well during the night = a happy valentine day. Another good idea.Gift??? Never mind...

It was alright, nothing fancy, nothing special. My husband went to work during the day, I went to do grocery shopping, looked after my baby. I prepared a dinner that something I never cooked for my husband; he bought me a chocolate and card. He liked the dinner so I was happy, I didn't expect anything from him.

My valentines was good. I enjoyed my night and during the day i was at work but it was actually a good night. My boyfriend came over and he got me a card and a bag of sunflower seeds since i eat them non stop at home and in bed at night. He also got a card for my dog because he says they are best friends and it was really good. I got him a card from me and then one from his bestfriend my dog LOL. I bought him a pocket watch because he had wanted one for christmas but i didnt get him one so i decided to get it now for him. After doing all that we went out to dinner with my parents and had a good time and laughed and really enjyoed ourselves.

Personally Valentine's Day was just another day for me. But it's also my mom's birthday and surprisingly, it turned out quite well. We just ate lunch outside with her friend, then they talked about things and I only listened, of course. Haha. Afterwards we went to karaoke, and because I love karaoke the most, I enjoyed it a lot. My friend also came to see me after that and we chatted until evening here in our house. So yeah, I pretty much enjoyed the day even though I don't have a date. ;)

Yesterday morning on Valentine's Day, I wished all my Facebook lady friends a Happy Valentines Day and gave them wishes on getting the best flowers and candies. For me, I was stressed. I had to go to court to get evicted from my apartment because I can't pay the rent. But when I got to court, things changed. While I sat in the court room, I watched a couple get married. As always happened, I got smiles from a little baby. So my day was starting to get better. Then the landlord lady came in and we talked. She gave me more time to move out (the end of the month.) And I met some friends and relatives and had a good talk. Finally, I went to see my mother and gave her a Valentine's Day card. So my day ended up GREAT!

As for my Valentines Day, I did not spend it. I stayed home and worked. Although, I had a pre Valentine last Sunday with the Lord and the youth in the church. I received a Valentine's card from those youth. And I was overwhelmed and touched with their messages.

Pretty routine day for me really. Still single so no flowers or gifts to give to or receive from anyone..... Basically worked from 9am till 5.30pm, then after work just spent the whole night being online and boring myself to sleep. But before I went to bed, I actually streamed this movie called "The Lost Valentine" off Youtube to watch as I have heard good reviews about it. Apparently is was shown on US television at the end of January, and there were already many people uploading full movie videos of the movie on Youtube. It was a really touching and emotional movie, and I enjoyed it tremendously. The storyline/plot was awesome, and so were the entire cast. But Betty White is the most outstanding of them all. I would highly recommend the movie if you have not already watched it. But that is of course if you have the time and internet quota to do so......

My Valentine's Day was sadly, quite uneventful. But that's because my husband promptly forgot that it was Valentine's Day. But that's okay, he more than made up for that the day after. Giving me flowers, chocolates and stuff. Then had the gall to tell me, he didn't purposefully "forget" V-day because it was just too cheesy. Excuses, excuses.

Did well in your exam? It is for sure the best gift for valentine Day. It is much better than those hwo got a gift but failed the exam because of no time for study ton the valentine night
