Yes, and luckily, I don't have time to watch TV. I hate it when I saw couples in love holding hands, etc etc etc. Although I have a husband, we're not really love birds that couples should be.
I even saw those Valentine's Day gifts on the sidewalks. And I just shut my brain from that sight. I'm envy those woman who got husband that remembers to give them something on Valentine's Day. I saw the "scenes" on my husband's relatives. They are Chinese here in the Philippines. They have sons and daughters of 20+ years old. And yet, they are sweet with each other.
I just tell myself "It's Valentine's Day. I have to treat myself." Before the day comes, I got to go to the mall and buy myself a skirt, or a blouse. I dine out too by myself. All of this started when I got married with my husband.
I don't know. Later all of us MIGHT dine out... my husband, Baby Ivan, my parents-in-law, and I.
The media even drives more of that Valentine's noise that makes me want to close my ears: "Stop that!"

Ack! Thanks!
I'm very happy for the people who's spending the day with someone they love.
Maybe your husband's cooking a surprise, or what!
I just wish I could go to the mall to buy myself a treat... but when you run out of cash, I had to find other ways to spend the day without getting lonely.
Happy Valentine's!
This day is just a normal day for me, I am not really into the hoopla of Valentine's day; it is just for commercial purposes anyway. Every day should be love day, not just Valentine's day.
As to dining out on valentine's day, its not that important, it just look good on TV but in real life it is better to dine at home with your family.
Your husband may not be that demonstrative, but I guess he loves you. Most men are like that, they do not really show those things but deep in their hearts they are in love with their wives :)
The most difficult thing to do is to keep a relationship fresh and exciting. I always know the people that are just starting out of the wonderful journey because they always do things like sit on the same side of the table when going out to dinner or are always overly amorous.
As a relationship goes on though, those things fade out and sometimes it can be mistaken for one person or the other not caring as much. In my experience, it is just not true. The love is still there, but it is not the "hands all over each other" and "tongues down throats" kind of stuff. Still, you should give your husband a smack across the head for not taking you out or getting you something.
I've been saying for the past couple days though that one day out of the year is not representative of true love. It is just a way for card companies, flower shops and candy makers to make lots of money. True love is felt all year round.
I really hope you went out and bought yourself something nice, but you should still have been taken out. Sometimes us guys take something that is wonderful for granted because it is just always there. We need a swift kick in the pants every once in a while to remind us.
hey I love the way these guys respond to your post mare c:
am sad on the way your hubby treats you :c sana nga he has something cooking for you c: not only this day but every once in a while naman sna.
@gem sama mo na lang anak mo sa mall... post valentine treat to you and your "dalagita". watch a movie =)
@pastilan medyo kainggit lang talaga. kc may nakikita akong family (tatay, nanay, their children) dine out as a family, then minsan may rose yung nanay.
@deron swift kick??? ok i'll try something next year hahaha
@iceah well sana man lang hindi nya ako tawaging "baboy" (in chinese) for that day hehehe
@all ako and husband ko and baby ivan, we went to my husband's relatives place. they are having a party because it's valentine's day. ganun sila kayaman, kahit konting utot lang, may celebration
@all
ps. i hope we went outside, dine in in a resto, even in jollibee, instead of going to a relative or a friend's place.

Happy Valentine's Day :)
People have been asking us how we planned to celebrate v-day and I kept saying that we probably won't. In fact, ma su surprise talaga ako if hubby planned something.
I woke up to a nice card with a wonderful letter from hubby. :) Kilig.
As for the rest of the day, we didn't have any romantic outings at all. But then again, feeling ko sweet kami every day of the year, so what does it matter ? :)
@popcorn every day is love day pala sa inyo. actually, that's better than celebrating v-day. kami kc totally wala... siguro kc may anak na kami... hindi ko alam... baka talagang ganun lang sya
