A loving woman would understand that you are doing everything you can to provide for the family and wouldn't truly expect anything. The majority of guys don't understand women. They are really quite easy creatures. Show her some attention, tell her you love her and that will suffice. That's really what 99% of women want. The other 1% are gold diggers and don't truly love their man. They just want gifts lavished on them no matter what day of the year it is.
A true happy couple looks at Valentines Day and says that's for suckers and another marketing attempt to make money off of the men in the world.
A happy couple celebrates Valentines Day every day of the year with love and caring.
I can't make it any easier guys. Seriously these kind of holidays are nothing but marketing means to take your hard earned cash. Unless you bought flowers or candy last year, ask your wife/girlfriend or significant other what you bought them for Valentines Day last year, the year before that? They aren't going to remember unless you did something super big. Don't believe, go ask now.
Good stuff HP.
My girl told me, "You BETTER not get me anything. I HATE that fake holiday!" Of course I got her something, but not flowers or candy or jewelry (all the cliche gifts).
