Your Best Valentine's Day and Gift by uchetobi(f): 2:38pm On Sep 23, 2005
Whats up people? I just remembered my Valentine's day of 2004 and thought to share it with you guys.

I woke up that morning and the day was so dry as in boring. My boyfriend wasn't around - he had travelled.

Then [at around] 4pm things began to happen. Someone came to tell me I had a DHL delivery. It was my Val gift - a teddy bear, perfume, Chocolate Royale cake and these very cute set of Victoria secret undewear in my favorite color (pink). That has been my best Valentine's day gift till today.

As if that wasn't good enough, I got chocolates from a secret admirer I don't know till date. And to crown the day I got to go out to dinner with my girl friends who weren't dating anyone. More like a girl night out. It's been my best Valentine's day ever.

Please y'all share yours with me.

Yours in Forum

Hum. . . .

My best Valentine's Day gift was in 1998.  I was dating a guy that was my "first love."  I had his locker combination so I decided to put his birthday gift (which fell on Feb 12) and his Valentine's Day gift in his locker as a surprise.

Once I opened his locker, I found a card and a picture of/from another girl

The card read:

Happy birthday and Happy Valentines Day!

Love you, sweetie

xoxoxo


I then saw them walking down the hall hand in hand.  A friend of mine walked up to me and said, "Vexxy, isn't that your boyfriend?  Should I go kick his ___?"  I said, "no, we broke up."

At this point you're probably wondering how it was the best.  Well, that day I learned a lot. 

Actions speak louder than words (watch the other's actions)
Love can be bitter sweet
How to control my emotions (when I wanted to give him the whipping of a lifetime)
How to be the bigger person in a situation like that
Over time, learn forgiveness

Wow, Vexxy, that must be the worst Valentine's day gift possible!

I'm not sure if I've gotten one in the past - if I have, then it must have been a cheap card with a hand-written note. My ideal Valentine's day gift? A debit card with thousands of dollars loaded! grin

If you've been recieved a really nice Valentine's day gift in the past, why don't you tell us about it? wink

I'd say it was great because it really opened my eyes to a lot of tricks guys play. I was ready for my next beau.

I really can't remember any other gift because they were like yours; cards with hand written notes. My brother did get me a beautiful sumari sword from Japan. I still have it. That was a great gift!

My best valentine's day. It's like right here in my diary.

Febuary 14 2003: Friday, The weather was soo goood. Not too hot, not too cold.

i woke up... Jumped in my School uniform (i had pressed it, and sprayed my sister's cologne on it.. wink). Took the 30 Naira Card and 300 naira Cufflinks i bought for my boyfriend [i had packed them together and i kept a little hand made note which i sealed with Lip stick... I had thick full lipstick on my lips, and i kind of... pasted my lips on the note... it was cute), and left for school.
Got to school, saw my beau, he gave me my val's gift, i gave him mine.. and i totaly enjoyed the day.

My best valentine gift was last year's valentine's gift.. I actually got to recive grown-up gifts. My dad also gave me a val's gift and i went on a real val's day dinner with my then now ex..boyfriend.

My best val gift was in 2000. I was so so in love with this guy. I got flowers at my door step at about 6am with a lil cute teddy and a card that says how much he was inlove with me. Later that night he took me out to this very very romantic resturant for dinner.the resturant is on a mountain it took us like 2 hrs to drive to the place,it was very far,i kept asking where we were going and what he was up to.he just kept laughing i got pissed didnt talk to him until we got there.because it was meant to be a surprise.

I was like wow where is this? He bought a ticket for his car park and we went in. I was like wow wow why this place, it's so expensive and too classy. I was just amazed. While we were having dinner I could see the moon light, stars and the sky was very close to my face cheesy. The city lights were sparkling it was just the best. After dinner we went into the so called secret garden of the resturant, ran around, played some pranks and just hummmmmm ok i will stop here.

That is just the coolest val so far.

I had bought a lot of [gifts] for my babe at the time (did the shopping on Saturday, February 12, forgotten what I bought though).

Sunday, February 13, 2000. Nigeria-Cameroon, National Stadium, Surulere, Lagos...

Monday, February 24, 2000. Frances calls me (I am depressed mind you), and says: "Remember today is val's day, forget about yesterday, it is only a game!" That was the end of the relationship...

I have since moved on from the rabid football fan that I once was, but...

Re: Your Best Valentine's Day and Gift by Trooper(m): 12:34am On Oct 30, 2005
Folks, first of all what is Valentine's Day about ? It's about nothing. Don't tell me now that's the day for all the people who are in love with somebody. It's BS. It's the perfect rip off day for men, not more, not less. When I bought 20 roses for my baby 2 years ago my total came up to $ 180.00. Yeah, happy Valentine's Day. At least we had good sex this day....

VALENTINES DAY CAN BE VARY DEPRESSING, IT CAN ALSO BE THE MOST AMAZING SENSATION!!!!

I was awaken by the sound of my phone ringing. It was my boyfriend, Daniel. I was exited in the anticipation that he was going to say something sweet and romantic. Instead, he told me he had to work all day, and wouldnt be able to see me today, he was very sorry. He also said he had the choice, but he needed the money. Infact he didnt have any money to get me anything, that i shouldnt even bother buying him anything (id already bought him something.) he said nothing better than something cheap! (he was soooo wrong!!) i had just woken, i wasnt thinkin straight, i couldnt even say anything. so he just said he’ll talk to me later.

It wasn’t until id showered and gotten changed for school that I got my head round things. I began to cry. I don’t know why, I guess I just had such high hopes, and I really loved Daniel. And since weeks back id been imagining a romantic vals day!!!

Nonetheless, I went to school, definatley heartbroken! The day went by so slowly. I kept seeing people kissing, exchanging gifts, etc!! It was really depressing!

On my way home I began crying again, then I pulled myself together and told myself that I was juast being silly!! It didn’t work!!
I was almost home. I knew that my parents would be out all day for vals. My brothers had an after school club they went to. So I knew id be at home alone. I thought it was for the best, because id just be morose and ruined the day for everyone.

When I got home I walked in, seeing that the place had been decorated with hearts, signs saying happy vals and roses on the window ledge. I assumed it was just my parents doing something extra special this year!
I walked ni the living room and saw candles lit on the centre table, in the dining room a candle lit dinner. I called out my parents, but I couldn’t find them. Then I went upstairs to UnCloth (*out of my uniform). I walked in and saw Daniel siting on my bed!!!!!!!

It was the shock of a lifetime!! I asked him what he was doing. He said he was waiting for me. I was soooo surprised, speechless. I said he had to go cuz my parents were planning something at home. He said they had gone to an hotel and we had the house to ourselves. He also said he had done all id saw in the house!!!! He gave me chocs, a huge teddy and the roses which I saw on the window ledge. Then we went into the dining and ate the dinner he prepared. It was real nice!!
We dance in the living room, he had brought some really romantic music. I almost cried!! I fel soo loved and appreciated!! Then after talking a while, he headed off to work…really, really late!! He sacrifised his job for me!!!

That was definatley the most romantic and amazing experience of my life, and it was soo unexpected!!!

(of course I had to set the house straight before my parents returned home that evening. My bros helped me when they got home…….their still blackmailing me up till now!!!!

My best Val gift is the one i got from my Hussy Today (14 feb 2006), its not a gift as such its a text message and it reads ,

" I give u my love cos of who u are and what u represent in my life. I love u. Happi Val, "

Its just a txt but he hardly says he loves me ( I wander why men do that) and that means so much to me,
Re: Your Best Valentine's Day and Gift by Seun(m): 9:23am On Feb 14, 2006
Princess-J: Women. You enjoy going through emotional roller-coasters. Crying throughout the day and then being surprised in the afternoon and it suddenly becomes the best gift ever. How sweet. :rolls eyes: do something bad to the woman to make hercry, and then surprise her afterwards and suddenly you become the sugar in her tea.

Madam: Wow, I think it's lovely that you appreciate a romantic SMS so much. Congrats!
