Lol. Did you happen to see Katy Perry's new song at the Grammy's last night? It's dangerous to break up with an artist.
My original threads here were all titled Valentine's Day Massacre.
My H was kinda like yours. Actually, he was pretty good about flowers and cards and presents - just not reliably on Valentine's Day. I wrote it off, I wasn't big into material things anyway, it was a commercial holiday, blah blah blah. But now that I look back, I can see his enthusiasm for Valentine's Day waxed and waned with his enthusiasm for the marriage - I just wasn't being let in on the secret.
I remember one horrible Valentine's day, when we were in marriage counseling after his affair. We happened to have a counseling apptmt that day, and I got there first. I remember the therapist asking me what H had done for me for Valentine's day - and me making some lame excuse for him. Which the male therapist clearly thought was lame. Ugh.
Now I kinda hate the holiday. This year [censored], because I am going to break up with the guy I have been dating - that is, if he ever calls me, since I haven't heard from him in a week and a half - which is the reason I'm breaking up with him! I expect he'll probably call tomorrow at the last minute - that would be typical for him -I'm not gonna pick up, because I don't want to break up with him on Valentine's day. I have the message already written and ready to send on Wednesday though.
And that's my task here to learn - why do I pick the kind of guys that don't celebrate love on Valentine's Day? Hey - maybe that should be a screening question for the guys I date - "what was the most romantic thing you ever did for Valentine's Day?"
