I thought about just baking a heart shaped cake, with our names on it, and buying him some real roses, with a fake rose in the middle, and the card saying "i'll love you, till the last one dies."I'm just not satisfied with that, I'm scared he'll be disappointed, b/c EVERY holiday i always do something HUGE.So, i decided i was going to play a mind game on him. At the last minute, i was going to cancel my date with him, and go to his mom's house, and set up an AMAZING dinner [[spagetti! cheap and and easy!]], and totally have a romantic evening for us. and she'll trick him into going to her house for something.But she said she won't be leaving until 8pm and My boyfriend picks me up at 1 on v-day.[[we only see eachother once a week, so we try to hang out as early as possible on saturdays]]So what do i do? I can't make a dinner at 1 aclock!? [[ and it won't be romantic if shes there..]]If i wait till 8pm, we won't have enough time to hang out before my curfew. PLUS, when i cancel my date..what if he makes plans with someone else?!What do you suggest?stick with my lame idea? or just..risk the romantic evening?or do you have any better ideas?

 Why can't you make your romantic dinner a romantic lunch at 1 oclock?! I don't see anything wrong with that.
I think you're seriously overthinking this. Just explain to him that you're broke and although you wanted to do something like the last two years, really over the top, you couldn't spend a ton of money. He'll understand and he won't care. I'm sure he'll be happy as long as you two get to spend the day together.
Relax. Worrying about this so much will totally kill the pleasure and excitement for you.

 what about an indoor/outdoor lunch and dinner meal. You can put up some twinkle lights around the house, dim the lights, and cook spaghetti, light some candles, decorate the place to look like Tuscany or something. BE INVENTIVE. You could always do a picnic if its nice outside, and if not u could just have made all this food and have a picnic on the couch and watch some really old lame black and white movie that we all love and adore really.
