What did your Valentine send you?

[ugaimes]

Amid a bunch of random yet much-needed gifts, as well as a great home-cooked meal, Bradley gave me a card "from the cat." He signed it "Love, Eponine" and everything. This coming from someone who doesn't fully understand how much I love my cat was a very sweet gesture. Sounds like you all had some great V-days too!

Just wanted to add that my man came home from work last night with a small balloon (the kind that has a stick on the end) and a heart shaped stress ball and a little fake rose. It was sweet since I barely saw him all day and he had already gotten me something.

I chose to name a star "Skytsengel" (means Guardian Angel) in the constellation Hercules - because he is my guardian angel AND my hero. It was kinda pointless but very soppy. But no flowers, no chocolate... in fact, I was mopping up his and the cat's puke, cooking for the family, cleaning the apartment... while he lay in bed for the weekend. He stopped throwing up long enough to take me back to the airport on the Monday and took me to Burger King. Uber romantic. Man, I feel like such a grouch, but he could at least have thought..... even a little card would have shown *something*.

I almost feel cheated

It just seems men sometimes just don't think how much a smallest gesture can mean to us

That's too bad.

I assure you it was thoroughly enjoyed though.

Don't you think though that when men are sick, it def. rattles their brains a bit?

I hope once he's recovered, he surprises you

I was depressed because I found out my brother had to put his cat, Oscar to sleep.

I feel bad because I was planning on stopping by the store to get something special for our kitties, but I got the sympathy card for Oscar and forgot.

I'll make it up to them.

My BF did his best to comfort me. When I got home from work my BF was dressed in his tux shirt and vest - looked and smelled awesome. He was in the middle of lighting lots of candles. We drank a little wine. He got me a juniper bonzai plant (that will live outdoors because its poisionous.) It's a lovely little tree. We exchanged cards and although they were different, the covers both said "You are my Everything." We drank some wine. I made dinner, but I overcooked the fish. We listened to music. Did I mention we had a few sips of wine?

I fell asleep while he did the dishes.
