I've gone for £35 set of roses from Marks & Spencer's , A £25.00 Me to you 12" Teddy and some Chocolates and a fancy £10 card for my Girlfriend

How about you ?

£70 on flowers, a teddy and a card? + chocolates? So say £80 before you even actually go for a meal or whatever. You sir are a little mad IMO but good luck to you

A card - £3
Flowers - £10
Pay for valentines meal at restaurant - set price £45 per person
................
Total £58 + drinks

She'll probably get me a card and maybe something naughty....

Buying a nice dress for the mrs. I saw a great 2 for 1 deal. A little revealing though. They're fingerless.

Zilch! We never bothered with this commercialised lovey dovey stuff.

Normal dresses have fingers?

Scania · 11 Feb 2015 at 10:55

I don't need to buy her anything, she already has me!

Her words, not mine!!!!

Regardless, I'll get her some flowers and we'll have a nice day together.

Gloves, I think he meant gloves. They're always 2 for 1

Wow, you sound like a real catch!

I am actually, and she appreciates that I have a mind of my own. I shower her with gifts throughout the year, I don't however give her a token gift on a specific day of the year because society tells me I should.

I am so making an origami rose. Mrs Cheesyboy will love that.

Was it this one you did;

Wonder how long it would take to make a dozen....

Yea thats the one i did, i toyed with the idea of making a dozen but im useless at it so would have taken far to long!

You might drop a hint to your boyfriend that you could really use a copy of "English Grammar in Use" from the Cambridge University Press

How long did it take you, and did it look pretty close to the one in the video?

Whatever you get or do for her, it will not be as good as what her friend/colleague/cousins/girl she knows at the gym/some friend of a friend's boyfriend/husband got or did for them so it's not even worth bothering about.

Women also love to complain to other women about how useless their blokes are to gain sympathy from other females, so give her what she really wants, something to complain about - Nothing.

I feel this is an unfair generalization.
I am a woman and I am not bothered about the price and how much (I would not be happy if he spent obscene amounts) or little is spent on gifts, For me it is the thought that counts and the time spent together.

Yup, you're defo a woman, a contradiction in your first sentence....

''Im not bothered how much he spends.....but I am..'' is effectively what you just said.

Probably a couple of hours. Most of that was failed attempts though! There was just one part of it i couldnt wrap my head around!

We might get to do the sex, though

Now we just go out for dinner.
