Caring, Valentine's Day and Love: It's something

It's something

Today, the attractive guy I barely speak to in my statistics class gave me a rose for Valentine's Day because he remembered they were my favorite. My husband got me a roll of quarters and told me to go buy myself "something pretty." FML

Today, I was in class when someone came in with a rose for me. My teacher made me read the card aloud: "I'm breaking up with you, happy Valentine's." It was from my boyfriend. FML

Today, I sent a guy in my English class a rose. He's kind of an outcast, so I though it would be a nice gesture. I asked him later how his day was going and he said, "Good. I got a rose this morning, but I could tell it was from a guy. The handwriting was awful." FML

Today, on the way out to buy groceries, my boyfriend asked if I'd like him to buy some of my favourite flowers. Happy with his rare show of affection, I said yes. When he returned, he gave me a bag of our usual brand of flour and laughed hysterically in my face. FML

Today, my Mom came to pay me a short visit at college. She handed me some flowers, which were a Valentine's Day gift, because she "figured I wouldn't be getting any from anyone else this year." FML

Today, it's my wedding anniversary; my husband forgot. My daughter gave me two beautiful long stem roses and said she would look after her sister while we went out to celebrate. My daughter is more romantic and thoughtful than my own husband. FML

Today, my boyfriend took me to dinner. There was a beautifully decorated table with rose petals and a huge bouquet and he told me he had ordered all this for me. I'd never felt so special. That is, until I had to get up for the couple whose table it actually was. FML

Today, after ordering a custom $200 Valentine's Day gift box for my husband, he gave it away to a female coworker upon delivery because Valentine's Day isn't for guys. I hope she like the new Xbox one controller and all the gift cards as well. FML

Yes, your husband does suck- but you shouldn't have accepted a rose from another man on Valentine's Day. You both suck. YDI

i have to say, i think if i were in this situation i would have to show my husband the roses. maybe not as in 'look what someone else got me, you unappreciative *******!' but i would certainly put them in water and make it clear how much i appreciate them. then if husband kicks off id say something along the lines of 'well i'm sorry but i'd forgotten how nice it feels to be bought flowers'. be subtle but make him feel guilty ;) unless he's so self involved he doesn't even realise. in that case i have no advice

I can't believe how many people are so against Valentine's Day. Gifts don't have to be huge. (Unless you're dating a gold digger and that's on you) Just something simple to show your appreciate to your love ones for all they do. That one simple roses from the OP's husband could have spoken volumes rather than from a stranger. And yes girls, it's nice to return gifts. If you can't afford one, a nice massage or his favorite meal etc... I bought my husband a few of his favorite candies (Mike and Ike) and he bought me a gardenia plant and planted it in our garden. The flowers smell amazing! Nothing expense but the thought was there.

A roll of quarters equals $10. You could buy several silk roses and chocolate at the 99¢ store now... Yeah he sucks.

That first sentence sounds completely retarded. So just because a guy is nice, he wants to get in your pants? Who screwed you in the wrong hole? TL_l

It's not even about the rose or money. It's about the fact that one person cared what was going on in your heart and head, and one did not. I would seek some marriage counseling. I was stuck for 14 years in a horrible marriage. If you don't have kids, I'd seriously consider leaving unless he has other outstanding traits of caring you have not shared here.
