Some Friendly Advice for Tomorrow

    Will be ordering Chinese take away as that has become the tradition in my house. Then a quiet evening with the family. Don't like going out on V Day. Way too busy and crowded. Besides, to day is my day to celebrate. I did get the wife an hour long massage gift cert. So shes happy.

    Reputation is what other people know about you. Honor is what you know about yourself. Guard your honor. Let your reputation fall where it will. And outlive the ***

    Valentine's Day is just another day that has been seized upon to monetise. You don't need to spend a squillion dollars to show your partner that you care. You can do that EVERY day, with small, meaningful gestures.
    Romantic dinners need not be restricted to one day of the year. You can have "Valentines" day whenever you want.

    Valentine's Day is certainly not my favourite day. My hubs spent the evening watching telly with a box of donuts ( lol ) and I spent it playing ESO with my kids. We've been married since I was 23 and I'm 40 now. We don't need fake heart day to show that we care. We already know we do.

    Totally shocked this thread didn’t get locked, though I may request mods lock it in the morning since Valentine’s Day is officially over.

    Hello, all,

    This one realizes this thread will likely be shut down by moderators for "not discussing ESO at all", but after advising Lord Arena25 on this, he said to post it and if there's a problem, he will work with moderators and website administrators to fix it.

    Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, every girl's favorite day. However, nothing ticks off a girl faster than watching as you spend Valentine's Day on the computer playing video games.

    So, some sage advice from Lord Arena25: Make dinner reservations and THEN log in to ESO. In other words, don't let video games get in the way of your real-world relationships.

    That's all. This one is going to bed. Hopefully, Lord Arena25 finds a Valentine soon enough...this week has been kicking us all in the tail.

    Huh my husband and I played ESO all day. Because some girls DO like to play video games with you.

    Stop being so "traditional" and patriarchal.

    My earliest memory of Valentines Day is from grade school, when the teacher made us draw names and get that person a Valentine card and if you weren't one of the popular kids then whoever drew your name whined and complained how they didn't want to get YOU one because to them you were garbage. Lovely times. I will be spending the day alone, by choice, enjoying the "me" time. Tea, coffee, good food, games, TV, naps.

    Yeah...? My earliest memory of Valentines Day in school years was me giving a card with some heart-shaped candies to the girl I liked, and her laughing while walking away; calling me weird. Lol. I cried when I got home that day, and spent my afternoon and evening indulging in Cartoon Network and a Pokémon game for GameBoy and Jet Moto for PS.

    The irony?

    Well... That same girl would go on to be a somewhat popular “adult actress” many years later. Claiming how she made the decision to enter the business, due to the lack of ever feeling like someone cared about her. Funny how things work...

    Sorry to hear that, friend.

    Anyway, I think we can all agree this thread pretty much has run its course (and I'm actually quite shocked, to say the least, that this thread remained up compared to last year's Valentine's Day thread), so I'm going to request mods lock this thread.
