what gifts do men want for valentine's day?

[quote name='Javery']Nothing for me. I'll usually buy my wife a card and have the kids sign it. I can't remember the last time I actually got anything though.[/QUOTE]

Forge a kid's signature. "I love you, Mommy. Daddy loves you, too. He would also love [insert wish]."


[quote name='perdition(troy']jeez, what kind of guy makes his girlfriend grill for him on valentines day.[/QUOTE]

One who loves his girlfriend's cooking? :lol:

Believe me, he doesn't "make" me do it. I like cooking for him. Besides, he tends to go all out with Valentine's gifts more than I do. I should be grilling steak more often to even things out.
 
[quote name='Clak']Very smart woman, got a gift for herself and somehow convinced you it was for you. ;)[/QUOTE]Someone get Mrs 83 a sammich!

[quote name='detectiveconan16']I think the better question is what do men want the day or week after Valentine's Day. Cheap and delicious chocolate!!![/QUOTE]
Ha, you know my honey too well. Though he still thinks it's 1988 when the day after everything is 25¢.

Metaphysics, I like the idea of only doing hand-made cards. That's such a brilliant way of truly expressing yourself but also not allowing it to be a wholly commercial event.

Thanks guys, for your honesty. it's more important that I don't get an idea of what to get for Cyric, but what will mean a lot to him at any time of year. Keep all the posts coming. They're all helpful and fun to read.
 
Personally, I dont like Valentines Day much at all because it feels like such a commercial holiday. My girlfriend and I (about 2 years) are more the type to pick up occasional gifts for each other at random points during the year, after one of us has had a long day at work, etc. Last week my girlfriend bought me a Reese's when I saw her after work just because she knew it had been a long week and I love Reese's. Its such a simple and inexpensive gift (under $1) but because she knows me so well its a very loving gesture. Simple things like that are far better for me than some extravagant gift.

That said, some ideas:

-One of his favorite shows on Blu-Ray (that hes been holding off on buying himself)
-Quirky collectible for one of favorite shows, movies, comics, etc
-Homecooked dinner (or you treat him to takeout. But dont go out to dinner because restaurants get so crowded and neither of you will really enjoy yourselves)

Not sure why everyone goes crazy over presents for VD...[/QUOTE]

Are we doing presents for giving diseases now? Is that how things work? I can never tell any more.
 
agh...I don't want anything for VD. It's a time where restaurants charge more for shit than usual. Stay away from places like the melting pot.

It's more of an apology than a gift. The VD was the "gift."
 
[quote name='DarkSageRK']Based on my experience with anime, you should dress up like a Japanese schoolgirl and give him shitty homemade chocolates made with like fish paste or something.[/QUOTE]

Nonono, it is BEAN paste shaped like a fish.
 
Forget him, the only stud you need in your life is me! =P

How serious are you guys? Maybe you can turn the table and propose to him, I know it's a cliche on Valentine but for you to do it, I guarantee he will never forget Valentines day again.

Most men love peace and quiet, buy a movie, get a bottle of wine, and enjoy the night, if you really need to buy him something buy a watch to go along with this.

If you really want to mess with him tell him your pregnant.
 
[quote name='guinaevere']you last few are fired. get back to answering the OP's question.[/QUOTE]Fine, geez. You women are so naggy. :p

Get him a season of a TV show he likes, cook a meal he loves but doesn't get to eat too often, maybe get him a new thingamajig that is broken or breaking down (razor, power tool, etc.).

Oh yea, and whatever outfit he finds you sexiest in.
 
[quote name='ajh2298']Stick it in HIS pooper for a change up, maybe?[/QUOTE]
11 posts. Sounds about right.

Seriously though, how about you let him put it in your pooper? Make this Valentine's one you'll both remember.
 
From what you guys have been saying I don't see how that movie is pro-torture. Granted I haven't seen it, so I can't say from my own first hand knowledge.
