Remember Tommorow is Prove How Much You Love Me Day

The better half already revealed she's got me a long weekend in Germany so I've got a few bits for her today. Plus it's our first one, so why not go a little overboard?

You're very peculiar.

What I meant was, as she asked on the day before Valentine’s Day, “Why, what’s happening tomorrow?”
Might you not be a bit miffed if on the day before your birthday, she said, “What’s special about tomorrow?”
 
I have trouble remembering her birthday and wedding anniversaries never mind VD -waste of money - there again I am past the humping stage :D
 
The thing about Women is that they'll go to work and talk to their friends about what they all got for Valentines day, and you don't want your girlfriend being one of you only one's sat there saying her boyfriend didn't get her anything because he doesn't believe in Valentines day or whatever. In her mates eyes that translates to "he doesn't give a **** about you enough to get you a card". You might get away with that if you spoil her the rest of the year, but for the sake of a tenner it's just better that you at least tick the box of getting her a card even if nothing else.
 
Going for a meal tonight. With card.
Is a nice thing to look forward to in the horrible weather

Those are the ones to avoid. Because they will never be happy and are too materialistic

In terms of this, we don't give a toss what other people think of what we do in regards to birthdays/christmas/valentines day etc.

We have 2-3 holidays a year abroad instead.

Yeah, I don't get the above either, a card isn't going to suffice when Janice at works husband went overboard and you got her a £2 special from ASDA.

It's not a materialistic thing, it just reflects bad on her if she has a boyfriend who seemingly doesn't put effort in, and Women care what their friends/family think of them. You are part of her overall social status. Just as a rich, tall, good looking boyfriend increases her value, a boyfriend who doesn't care detracts from her value. This is important to Women.
 
Even if you don't do anything I struggle to believe that your other half won't be at least a little bit embarrassed when they get asked "what did x get you today?" and they have to reply "nothing".

I got my wife a trip that we can go on together. Something we potentially would have done anyway but no harm in giving it today.

For me, I'd hope my gf was of strong enough character not be swayed by this. And would more value love/care/sharing experiences.
But I'm strong willed and independent and I suppose I go for similar type.

No no, you do that. She's sat inside thinking 'where are my blinking flowers, you'd have thought he'd have learned by now' :p

Honestly she isn’t lol:p. She’s told me that she wants no flowers, cards or chocs.
So what the lady asks she gets :p

Hah, aye,my wife will gladly say we BOTH don't give a toss about it, not just me

Yep that’s pretty much it but if she’s pushed by her friends and family the she says he’s given me his love and that’s all I need.

Quite cringeworthy but it shuts them up lol.
