I can’t be the only one who just doesn’t get all excited for Valentines Day. I don’t know why but I’ve always been this way. Don’t get me wrong my husband does random acts of kindness, randomly has flowers sent to me and brings me some kind of sweets home on Friday (whether I eat it or not). I appreciate everything he does and I LOVE to just see what other ladies get on Valentines Day, but me personally I just don’t get all excited.🤷🏻♀️

I don't get excited for Valentine's day either. My husband isn't very romantic and I don't care enough hahahha
Savanna Moore··
Mine tries to be romantic but I’d still love him either way. We show affection everyday so this one day is just another day.😂 I’d be okay with a movie night in with the kids. 🤷🏻♀️

We’ve never done Valentine’s Day. We just skipped it our 1st year and haven’t done it since. However this weekend we are going to a hockey game alone together. So that counts I guess 😂
Savanna Moore··
Awe that sounds sweet though! I sincerely hope y’all have a blast!
Yo mama··
thanks. It’s not actually for Valentine’s Day. It just happened to fall on vday weekend. But we can pretend 😂 I honestly don’t care about the day. Just waiting for the 15th for discounted candy.
Savanna Moore··
yesss!! I love anything that’s discounted!♥️♥️ Hey date nights are needed too.

Growing up, it was a HUGE celebration in my household. My parents always made it really special. Fondue and decorations and special plates and gifts and poems about love. My dad always got me flowers. My mom even continued it when I was in college by filling up my car with balloons and flowers and candy and stuffed animals. It’s some of my only good memories of my family together before a divorce tore everything apart. So for me, it’s still one of my favorite holidays. A lot of holidays make no sense to me but this one makes complete sense. A celebration of love. ❤️❤️❤️ We even picked our wedding date based on the holiday (February 13th) so we can celebrate both at the same time (and save money doing so).
I think it’s super annoying when people bash any holiday though. Let people enjoy things.
Savanna Moore··
My family celebrated it also but it just wasn’t something they went all out on. I just don’t get the point of only one day a year is a celebration of love. I agree that some holidays doesn’t make any sense though. But now my sister LOVES Valentines Day. She goes and decorated and spend $$$, i guess she celebrates enough for the both of us.😂😂

My grandma passed away on Valentine's Day so I kinda just have my own kinda day my husband does my daughter stuff this year I ordered him a mug with our daughter on it I don't care for it and just wish it was over already. =(
Savanna Moore··
Oh, I’m sorry for your loss. I don’t blame you. The mug idea is cute though!
Dusty ··
thanks it was easy and not stinking red or pink lol

I’ve never been a huge valentines persons to me it’s just another day. we should be treating eachother like that every day not just one day out of the year 🤷♀️
Savanna Moore··
Your exactly right!🙌🏼

My husband and I both agree it's nothing special. Never has been. If I did celebrate it I would want a nice medium rare steak and some curly fried lol I like food.

That's what I'm talkin about 💁🏻♀️
Savanna Moore··
See now your talking, forget the chocolate and flowers bring me a steak!😂♥️🤤

Nah I personally find it annoying to see my friends on Facebook flaunting what they got. I mean on here is different cause I don't really know anyone lol. Idk it just seems like"ok" why broadcast it to the FB friends world as if the definition of your SO's love was defined by how much you get or how expensive...
Savanna Moore··
Yeah I agree. I think what I enjoy is the creativity some SO’s go to to make the day special. My first year with Justin he had rose petals everywhere and honestly my first thought was yes it’s cute but i hope you don’t expect me to clean it up. Girl it’s been years later and I’m still finding petals!😂😂🤦🏻♀️
LEO Wifey·
Same. Neither of us are sentimental. But it's a good excuse for me to bring home sushi for dinner. Lol we show our love every day.
Savanna Moore··
I wish my husband and I shared the same mindset on Valentines Day. I’ve never had sushi, I’m more of a Mexican style.😂🤷🏻♀️ Exactly what I mean, we show love every day so why make it any different.

I've never been a Valentine's day person either.
Savanna Moore··
I’ve been this way for as long as I can remember. Even in school I just didn’t care for it, especially having to make a valentines box and cards just so I can throw them away. That’s waisted money, paper and my time.🤦🏻♀️
lexi·
I've never given a single shit about it lol I'm just not a very feelsy type 😅
Savanna Moore··
Girl same!🙌🏼

Same here. To me just another day.
Savanna Moore··
Exactly! I just don’t feel the need to have one specific day where we buy items “out of love” when we do it anyways throughout the year. Which my husband does not share the same mindset as me on this subject.😂 I tell him all the time not to go and spend $100+ for Valentines Day save that money for a vacation or random date nights or for himself something. 💁🏻♀️ If he just has to buy flowers then by me perennial seeds so I can plant them and them re-bloom year round instead of dying within a week.
Saleena Jones··
Мама дочки-младенца
omg were the same!!!! Lol just let me plant some seeds and grow them myself!!!! 😂😂 I told him the exact same. He looked at me like I was crazy!
Savanna Moore··
@saleena, I know that feeling, he asked me if I was going crazy🤪. A year later he just bought me a greenhouse because he realized I wasn’t crazy and I was being serious. I’d rather put in the work to have beautiful flowers that come back every year than some that cost way more and die shortly after they bloom. I actually remember telling him that I’d rather him save that money and just go in the yard and pick the buttercups that has bloomed. 💁🏻♀️
