Sure it's commercialized, but so is every other holiday. The fact remains that it's a special day where we acknowledge those we love and he didn't do that. So....YES YOU SHOULD BE UPSET! Don't let him get away with that. He didn't have to spend a mint on a gift. How about a card and a nice evening at home?! If you don't address it now, he will think it's ok. Next, your birthday doesn't get acknowledged. If you get married, don't expect an anniversary card or gift, and heaven help you if you have a baby. You're not his mother, so you probably won't get any acknowlegement then either!

I would be pretty upset if that happened to me. My parents didn't give each other anything though, and they have been married for 19 years, and are very much in love, so I don't really know, but that was just a money issue. Did he take you out to dinner or anything? I hope all goes well, good luck.

V-day is such a trumped up occasion! It was invented by Florists and card companies. If you have no more to get upset by than this, your relationship seems to be in good order. Of course, you could make a stink and watch him/her walk out the door. Be careful what you wish for!
I got my lover nothing for V-Day, yet he got me a dozen red roses, a teddy bear, and a crazy thingy...very touching, but certainly I would not have been hurt had nothing arrived...I know he loves me, and that is what counts. I got him nothing, and he, as far as I know, is not bent out of shape. I will admit the love making was very special last night, but .... just another day, basically.

Tell him that your'e bummed that you two missed the opportunity to have some special time together for Valentine's day and that you would like both of you to do something special for each other this coming weekend.
(This way he won't feel like you have your hand out, selfishly expecting him to throw down cash for you to celebrate a cheesy commercialized holiday.)
You cannot hint around with guys. They have to be told very directly what you expect and the sooner we ladies learn this the better off we will be! ;-) lol (It's true, though!!!!)

i know some people aren't into valentines day and feel it is too commercialized, but please...if it's important to you, then your guy should've known it. if he's on a tight budget, he should have at least given you a card with a nice note. there are plenty of things people can do without spending lots of money.

Valentine's Day is just a day meant to honor the secret marriages in Rome. It has gotten so commercialized. If he loves you and shows you every other day of the year, be happy with that.

Please don't base the love that someone has for you off ov V-day. It's only a commercialized holiday. Not everyone gets into it.

some men have a hard time remembering to buy gifts for any special occasion and it doesn't mean they don't care. even birthdays and anniversaries are forgotten. don't worry about it.
