Hey guys, there's dis gal, and we've been on and off. We became a bit steady towards d end of last year. Now it's almost valentine, and she's stylishly hinting at all d things she wants me to get for her. . . It's mighty expensive. I know her well, and i know all she'll get for me is probably a shirt and a card, or a cheap perfume. She's not broke, so i strongly feel that if i have to go all out and buy all those expensive stuff, then she has to meet me halfway and do d same. Abi, what do u think?

I can think if I want, but am not going to think you do the thinking its your relationship

What's the big deal ,please use your discretion ! ,you Guys are fond of complaining when you have to fulfil your side of the bargain ,i don't think you have to measure what she's giving with yours ?

***Hisses and clicks on next thread***

[size=13pt]lol ehn buy her a big bottle of groundnut  [/size]

**jumps up and down**and then starts hittin head on the wall**

That's why it's called Valentine's Day, I f you can't afford them then please go and get yourself a mama-put for a girlfriend.

Take her window shopping for those things she asked for.

See another 'man' trying to chicken out of his responsibility. @ least he's not saying it's because the girl will 'probably' cheat!

You are good huh

Im doing ok, i guess im an insomniac as well

^^^ Awwww too bad. Anyway, thank God for NL!

Girls tend to get really friendly towards valentine. Why would you fall for that?

buy her what u can afford,

I've always been an "it's the thought that counts" kind of dude. Weigh your pockets before you decide to fork out huge pennies on val gifts for your woman. If she's considerate she would understand. Besides, there are far better ways to show you appreciate her on valentine's day than outrageously expensive gifts. Immerse the day in romance and plan some events to show how much you care.

its val and the gift you give has to be an expression of your love for you partner not a task you must fulfill. and this should apply for guys and gals alike

@poster
NOTHING, and i repeat, NOTHING says that people should buy whatever people ask on val day just to prove their affection to their partner.
- BUY WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD.
- BUY WHAT YOU WANT TO OFFER.
- IF YOU AINT GOT THE MONEY THEN SAY IT TO HER OPENLY (flowers/chocolate aint that expensive anyway).

its not about the amount you spend on a gift but the gesture and thought. even a 1 kobo gift will do, any person out there who is pissed because you didnt buy them what THEY wish should go and get a life and you should reconsider your position in this relationship.
