Do you celebrate Valentine's Day?

    In our house, it is pretty much "just another day." Even when we were dating, dh didn't like someone telling him he needed to "love me". LOL So I quickly gave up the fantasy of being spoiled. However, I think the prices for dinner out and flowers is rediculous and if he ever wanted to spend $ like that on me, I could think of lots of things I'd rather have.

    Now, I do get the kids some little heart boxes with chocolate and a card because I think they deserve to enjoy the holiday! And of course, it's always nice to tell them I love them. I even got dh some candy this year and he was very happy.

    Valentines Day is way too commercial for my following. Somehow, I don't understand why you'd need one day of the year to express that undying love when 364 others are just as good, barring some minor weather fluctuations. Nowadays, its just a money spinner to make believe some sort of a "spirit of true love". Ah well...its just my opinion, and I've been wrong about things too. :)

    I used to always celebrate Valentines day. Now that I'm single I try my hardest to not have plans with a girl on that particular day, save the $150+, then go to a nice dinner with my guy friends who I've known for 10+ years and are always there.

    Just my $0.02... Until I get married of course.

    I agree, too commercial nowadays....set dinners, roses that cost a bomb...but since i'm a true blue romantic, me and my partner, we dress up, dont make any reservations for set dinners, just go and find a quiet restaurant and celebrate our love...nothing too fancy..

    I expect Valentine's Day with very much interest because of the chocolate and champagne consumed in substantial portions :D
