I've got a good 20 years on you, so let me clue you in something about men: they're not that big on Valentine's Day. If we don't remind them, they'll forget. Heck, some men even forget anniversaries and birthdays and those are way more personal to a couple than Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day is just something that we women get more worked up about than men do. And if he's generally not a romantic-flowers-and-candy kind of guy, he isn't going to suddenly become Don Juan. Not unless you make it clear that you want the big gestures of love on Valentine's Day. Which, if you're a loving couple anyway, isn't necessary.

Also, men, God bless their little hearts, are simple creatures. If you say "don't get me anything" what they hear is "don't get me anything." You really can't be angry that your guy isn't a mind reader. We women do that sometimes, and its not fair. Next time just be straight out, tell him its approaching and what you want. If he screw up then, then you can be angry.

it's just a commercial day! he shouldn't get all up himself because of how the day went.

everyday in a relationship should be like valentines. you should always communicate with eachother and do nice things. material things are nothing compared to making someone laugh and caring for someone.

valentines day is so over rated. it's just another day!

-NothingLasts4ever- agony auntOkay I can understand why you're annoyed... you don't get to see your boyfriend on valentines day. But you have to take part of the blame as well. You did refuse to see him tonight. He didn't make you say that.

Men are never organised. So he got you a valentines present today, so what? At least he got you someting. I agree with satindesire, you need to tell him what you want.

Why not ring him? say your sorry and enjoy the rest of the day? Go to his show thing later when it's almost finished and spend the rest of the night with him. Ignore everything that's happened so far and just pretend it never happened. Surely that would be better than waiting at a comp for people you don't know to tell you what to do.

Well there is only a few hours left of valentines day.

Tomorrow is St Siegfrieds day. (No idea what he did, except a circus act in Vegas) and it is a new day with a new dawn. I don't think he will improve. Be glad to be alive and find someone better.

Well you said a lot of things along the lines of "don't worry about it, don't get my anything" so he may not have been psychic enough to realise that you actually meant "PUT SOME DAMN EFFORT IN!!"

He was rubbish but give him a chance to make it up to you.

If he doesn't do something pretty romantic next time then you have to accept that he's either rubbish at remembering things like this and will mess up a lot, or you can split up with him and find someone a bit less useless.

Good Luck!! xx

think it was rubbish - think he just wants you for sex. dump him and find someone better for you. who will spend good quality time with you. Live.

if its any consolation I once made heart shaped toast and brought it to my GF in bed. she ate the toast and went to work. Sigh why did I bother.

Hugs OS.X.
