QUOTE ____________________________________________________________ And let's not forget that she's his *girlfriend* not his wife. We who have been married a while will simply not view Vday the same as a girl who's expecting all the stops to be pulled out, in her honor. ____________________________________________________________
Well, we have actually been together for over 3.5 years and this will our 4th Valentine's Day together. I don't really think she expects me to go all out like perhaps our first and second VDays together. Not that I am not doing something special this year for her (a small gift and a weekend trip to the shore).
Actually, Valentine's Day two years ago is when I first started noticing REAL problems in the bedroom... that was about two months after I moved in with her. We were in a hotel room and she fell asleep on me - I woke her up and was like "helloooooo"! We then proceeded to make love. Now LAST year was a real downer. Again, she fell asleep on me and at that point we had been having SSM related problems. However, I was thinking JEEZ - it is Valentine's Day. I felt down, and didn't even bother waking her up. The next day I expressed disappointment that we did not make love, and she said that "it (sex) is not necessary for romance on Valentine's Day." So I am not sure what to expect for this year - I guess I should have no expectations so that I don't set myself up for disappointment?
