Yet one of the burning questions men who have been in a long-term relationship face is what to give a woman who says: “I don’t want anything for Valentine’s Day.” Plenty of advice gurus will tell you that this is a trap and that a woman who says this doesn’t mean it. And plenty of men have had experiences that bear this advice out. Valentine's Day for a guy is what I like to call a trap holiday. Sure, you're special someone will tell you, Don't worry about me, I don't want anything; but that's a gigantic lie. The statement Guys, when your sweetheart says she doesn’t want anything, she really does. Don’t fall for it. You may be fine for a day, or a week or a month, but sooner or later it’s going to bite you. Valentine’s Day may be a cruel reminder or an opportunity to rekindle it. When romance fades, it can be replaced with love based on deep caring and shared life experience. You might decide not to do anything special. Yet you can still acknowledge your love for each other – even if it’s not romantic love, it’s deep and abiding. I personally don't care about Valentine's Day, it feels super obligatory and I don't want a checklist romantic gesture. A surprise candy or cute stuffie just because he was thinking of me would be infinitely sweeter, same general idea but any of the remaining 364 days of the year. Female here, No I don't want anything for Valentine's day, I don't get upset at my man if he does or doesn't, I think last year he gave me a card. maybe, i don't remember-- like i said, I'm ambivalent. Before you spiral out of control, read on. Here are three ways to avoid feeling disappointed on Valentine’s Day: 1. Be honest about what you want. If it is important to you to receive a Valentine’s Day gift from your significant other, be upfront about it. Don’t play it cool if it actually matters to you. Now, some people exceed expectations on Valentine’s Day, but most receive a pass mark at best. You know – the perfunctory bunch of flowers, the heart-shaped box of Cadbury's, the Love you lots Making an effort on Valentine's Day is great if you're SO is into it, but if you don't it doesn't mean you don't care about them. The same argument could be made in the reverse. If someone demands stuff on Valentines Day then they don't care about the person who doesn't want to celebrate it. That's why that's flawed logic. "I'm anti-Valentine's Day. I don't believe - and this goes for anybody - your man shouldn't love you for one day out of 365. He should love you 365 days out of the year. I want Valentine's Day every day." - Carrie Underwood "Valentine's Day is often times a, well, it's a manufactured day that doesn't really mean anything." - Jon Stewart I had the same reaction, and I'm a woman. Any woman who says they don't want something on Valentine's Day when they actually do is an idiot. I personally don't want a lot on Valentine's Day, so if I had to tell someone the right response would be "Honestly, a pretty bouquet from the grocery store and my favorite kind of wine or chocolate is Female here, No I don't want anything for Valentine's day, I don't get upset at my man if he does or doesn't, I think last year he gave me a card. maybe, i don't remember-- like i said, I'm ambivalent. Posted by u/dummystupid - 528 votes and 29 comments I don’t plan my own birthday, and this past birthday he hasn’t planned anything for it, which is why I tried to explain/ask for a plan for Valentine’s Day. I thought if I made my wants known this time, it would happen, especially considering I said it didn’t have to be expensive or an item, just a plan to be thought of. Cool. That's probably the most common thing cuz most people break up right before good events like Christmas, New Year's Day and Valentine's Day, from personal experience. So relax, this isn't uncommon at all and don't feel bad due to the few Lucky ones that get it. Not everyone has to make use of luck. The thing is I know he’s going through a financial rough patch because he’s not working currently and studying. I’m not expecting anything tbh if he did of course I’d be soooo happy but I wanted to do something nice to him I usually gift a lot without any occasion (family,friends,boyfriends) because I truly believe you don’t need a day to show someone you love them. It’s a mf trap boy. Women say that shit all the time and at the same time hoping you didn’t listen. Also, you’ll soon realize you don’t listen to her a lot anyway so don’t listen to her about it. Also, you don’t have to give it to you. Put it in a room and go somewhere and text her you left something on that room and need her to go Happy Valentine's Day, friend! It's really unfortunate that he didn't at least say the words to you :(. There's nothing wrong with you! It's been a common thread on this sub today that some boyfriends "don't believe in Valentines Day" or "won't celebrate [it]". This could be the case! Even if you are happy being single every other day, Valentine's Day can make you question your singlehood. Here are seven suggestions on how to get past February 14.
