Here&#39;s my question to you guys: Would you refuse to celebrate Valentine&#39;s Day even if you had a lovely significant other who was into the whole gift giving thing? <img src="http://www.allegro.cc/forums/smileys/cry.gif" alt=":&#39;(" />
</p></div></div><p>

I think that Valentine&#39;s day is pretty much something special for the ladies, rather than the men. To answer your question: no. </p><p>My plans for Valentine&#39;s day: I&#39;ve spent today preparing (read: trying to cook) a nice desert and soup starter from scratch. Tomorrow shall be spent preparing the main course for a nice quiet dinner. Roses, gifts. The usual.

</p></div></div><p>

I&#39;m not personally into the whole Valentine&#39;s Day thing, but I&#39;ve never refused to celebrate it with a girl. It&#39;s really not worth getting into a fight over.</p><p>I&#39;m not looking forward to work tonight. We&#39;re fully booked all night, and we&#39;re trying to cut down on wage costs at the moment, so we&#39;ll be understaffed. Happy Valentine&#39;s Day indeed.

Also, more in general, what do you do when you see a group of girls standing around and talking to each other, and you want to &quot;get into the group&quot;: Do you walk near them, listen what they are talking about and then suddenly contributing something to the topic? I&#39;m really clueless about this one ...
</p></div></div><p>

You have to think like a predator. Girls travel in packs. You want to strike when one gets separated from the pack. If you go after the pack itself, your hunt will not go well unless you are an experienced predator.

That could work. But if you want to speak with a specific girl, it&#39;s a bad idea. Trust me, I know it.

It either became just Death (the wish came true), or project Amber took all the available time.

		<description><![CDATA[<div class="mockup v2"><p>It&#39;s funny, a week or so ago, I was playing with my Wii (;D) whilst me loving wife checked her myspace.  A few moments later I turned around to see her typing a post here on a.cc.  So, I got a little closer and read what she was planning to post.  Something about &quot;ever wonder what your geek is doing?&quot; kind of thread, aimed at the significant others in our lives.  Apparently, she&#39;s been reading some of my previous posts since I often leave a.cc up when I leave.  </p><p>I told her it wouldn&#39;t make much sense, considering she was posting under my name and that I doubt many other&#39;s partners check a.cc.  However, perhaps this a thread she&#39;d actually want to give some input on...

</p></div></div><p>
If you want to &quot;get into the group&quot;? Like you would do with any group you want to get into: stand with them and join the conversation (note: you need to check wether the group is &quot;open&quot; or &quot;closed&quot; to other people joining it; this is usually fairly obvious from the body language). Don&#39;t go walking around them obviously minding your own business or listening waiting for an opening to jump in, because both will be obvious and appear forced. If you have to, find a reason to be near and then <i>openly</i> pick up on their conversation. Make eye contact and get permission to &quot;join the conversation&quot;.<br />If your intend is to get to talk to a specific girl from that group, don&#39;t try to enter the group as a whole. She isn&#39;t available to talk to if she&#39;s talking to the group.</p><div class="quote_container"><div class="title">Quote:</div><div class="quote"><p>

Indeed. Actually, I&#39;m worse than that. The more peer pressure there is to do something, the more likely I am to not do it. However, I suspect that if I <i>did</i> have a relationship I would do <i>something</i>. Just something slightly more original than a teddy bear with a heart and a bouqet of roses that has &quot;Valentine&#39;s Day&quot; written on it in big capital letters.</p><div class="quote_container"><div class="title">Quote:</div><div class="quote"><p>

It does <i>not</i> work that way! Even with such prior agreement, you will get in big trouble.</p><p>I used to work with this man (he has kids my age) ... he came into the office on VD all happy that he and his wife had agreed to just go out to eat with some friends at a nice restaurant and that buying $50 worth of flowers that were just going to die was a waste of money. But of course, he gets a call at work in the morning from his wife who is all upset that &quot;all the other women in the office&quot; are getting flowers. <img src="http://www.allegro.cc/forums/smileys/tongue.gif" alt=":P" /></p><p>Him&gt; &quot;Are they all getting to go out to the best restaurant in town?&quot;<br />Her&gt; &quot;No, but I don&#39;t care. I want flowers. <img src="http://www.allegro.cc/forums/smileys/cry.gif" alt=":&#39;(" />&quot;</p><p>It&#39;s stupid because you can give gifts 364 days out of the year on every day, but if you don&#39;t give one on VD, you &quot;don&#39;t love her.&quot; On the flip side, you can be a jerk 364 days out of the year but give her some flowers that will die and be thrown away, and you are somehow romantic. </p><p>If you want a (happy) relationship with a girl, you better be ready to succumb to every commercial holiday that ever has been and will be invented.</p><div class="quote_container"><div class="title">Quote:</div><div class="quote"><p>

</p></div></div><p>
Only in the Santa version of Christmas, which brings up other points that would completely derail this thread.  </p><p>A. Is celebrating christmas around a jolly fat man who gives people presents idol worship and thus a sin. Is it even worse that it&#39;s on a holiday which basically celebrates the Christian religion?</p><p>B. What does it say about our society which loses it&#39;s perspective on a religious holiday because of a person who gives everybody gifts?</p><p>Perhaps I just don&#39;t know the history.  Feel free to correct me.

It&#39;s stupid because you can give gifts 364 days out of the year on every day, but if you don&#39;t give one on VD, you &quot;don&#39;t love her.&quot;

That then only enforces the notion that a lot of &#39;love&#39; is a superficial sheen on an unsteady relationship? Love cannot be bought.

It&#39;s stupid because you can give gifts 364 days out of the year on every day, but if you don&#39;t give one on VD, you &quot;don&#39;t love her.&quot; On the flip side, you can be a jerk 364 days out of the year but give her some flowers that will die and be thrown away, and you are somehow romantic.
</p></div></div><p>

Most women work that way. It makes it easy for us men to keep them happy: you just have to be nice for one day instead of the 365 days of the year.</p><div class="quote_container"><div class="title">Quote:</div><div class="quote"><p>

What&#39;s not sad about being compelled to buy some pathetic gift on certain days in order to make whichever girl you happen to be with at the time happy?

VD is about mandatory gift giving. It&#39;s not about being &quot;fad.&quot; Oh, you say, &quot;I&#39;m giving because I love her.

I didn&#39;t know that Fashion Day existed where you have to buy your GF a new outfit. Or does Baby Shower Day exist when you have to buy your GF some baby clothes? Or Chic Flick day where everyone goes and watches a Chic Flick or else fear the wrath?</p><p>The other things you have mentioned are just normal parts of your GF&#39;s life that you better appreciate because its stuff that revolves around her personally. She&#39;s doing the same thing for you. It has nothing to do with a commercial holiday that somehow becomes the one thing that proves your love.

I really don&#39;t think that&#39;s a good idea. It will probably turn into an awkward situation. Maybe you can &quot;accidentally&quot; meet her on her way to school one day and take it from there.

</p><div class="quote_container"><div class="title">Quote:</div><div class="quote"><p>
Here&#39;s my question to you guys: Would you refuse to celebrate Valentine&#39;s Day even if you had a lovely significant other who was into the whole gift giving thing? <img src="http://www.allegro.cc/forums/smileys/cry.gif" alt=":&#39;(" />
</p></div></div><p>
If she was into it I would, in the same way I would go shopping or watch a dumb chick flick. Personally, I can&#39;t be arsed to bother with Valentine&#39;s Day for the same reason I don&#39;t give a rip about Christmas; it seems to me to be awfully stupid to devote a day to behaviors and attitudes we should be displaying all year anyway. If you want to be romantic, don&#39;t do stuff on Valentine&#39;s Day, surprise her in July or something.

</p></div></div><p>

The problem isn&#39;t it being commercialized. Everything is commerialized in our world these days. These holidays are blatantly over-commercialized. I&#39;ll profit from it though, as guys taking dates out on Valentine&#39;s Day often like to show off by leaving large tips, so I don&#39;t really care.

Ok, now I&#39;m going to be a bit harsh. Valentine&#39;s day is not a customary holiday here. It&#39;s been brought here by Americans few years ago (let&#39;s say fifteen) and it looks really ugly and it&#39;s only commercial holiday here. So I don&#39;t see point in celebrating something you (americans) have brought here to make a profit. <img src="http://www.allegro.cc/forums/smileys/tongue.gif" alt=":P" />

It seems like Coca Cola invented Santa Claus, I wonder how Christmas were celebrated before Santa.

Here&#39;s my question to you guys: Would you refuse to celebrate Valentine&#39;s Day even if you had a lovely significant other who was into the whole gift giving thing? <img src="http://www.allegro.cc/forums/smileys/cry.gif" alt=":&#39;(" />
</p></div></div><p>

I had jumped over that ...</p><p>I am answering this now : If the other wanna make the Valentine&#39;s Day a special one, I do not see why I will not satisfy her.</p><p>It&#39;s not because I am not a Valentine&#39;s supporter that I am allowed to break my lovely darling&#39;s ideal.</p><p>So here we are, my dear:</p><p>1) If both are OK to have / not to have a special day/night at Valentine&#39;s Day, there is no problem<br />2) If one want and the other do not, (or the contrary), then I think the men must satisfy his lovely girl. ( We are all gentlemans you know :-) )

How do you think males of the same sex who are in lust do it?<br />All a girl needs to achieve the same effect is to buy a silicone/latex extension.

I&#39;m aware of that. But since that isn&#39;t part of her anatomy, the question still stands. I was wondering if RP knew something about Diana that the rest of us didn&#39;t.</p><p>edit: There&#39;s always fisting I suppose. And I once saw this video where this girl lubes up her head and then, oh never mind.
