Perfect! That should keep you plugged up, which could solve many of your problems (and hers)!

what about something like this? This might help.

^^That's what confuses me. I'm always in big hurry to "win", but then I'm always told to slow down and let the other person finish first. How can that be termed "winning?"

 
Things are still good deadbeat! But I am kind of at a loss for fun things to do at this point. We've done most of the standard date stuff around here and I am afraid things will get stale if I don't come up with some new ideas.
Also what am I supposed to do for Valentines day? Do I do something that night, its a Thursday so I don't think we can see much of each other that night or do I wait until the weekend and do a bigger deal. The other thing is what do you get for your first Valentines day together? I don't just want to get chocolate or flowers. I want it to be personal but she is pretty tight lipped about it.
Keep it simple.

Revisit one of your early dates. Home cooked meal, a rented movie, etc. Of course, you may be doing that all the time these days - you don't tell us anything anymore.

IMHO, any gal who is going to throw a fit because she didn't get a $$$ meal, a dozen roses, and all the other cliche crap is not a gal you want. She's dating you, so she likes you already- be creative.

Hows about a mini road trip? somewhere within 3 hours. A walk through a zoo in the wintertime can be romantic. It worked for Rocky B.

I would say bed and breakfast but I don't particularly like them.

My point is flowers on a random tuesday in May are much more meaningful than valentines day. If you're going to spend some cash, make it fun for both of you.

Husbands of the ladies my wife works with hate me. A few years ago, I didn't order flowers in time for Valentine's day, but, go figure, I could order them for the day before, so I did. came up with a funny note justifying it. She loved it, and I did it a few times.

One day, the husband of one of her co-workers says, "You know, every time you send those flowers, my wife comes home hinitng how much she's gonna love hers tomorrow and it is too late to order. I'm always in the dog house because of you." :true:

I don't know if I'll do it just year because dang deliveries have gotten waaaaay too expensive for what you get. Probably just pick some flowers up and make an arrangement for her myself.

 
^ I thought of that Klingon when I was in the shower this morning and it was creepy!

As for the gift I got her a card and a small bottle of perfume for the actual holiday, but took deadbeat's advice and asked her if she wanted to take a three day weekend together. We have been together a couple months now so it seems like the next step, I can't believe I didn't think about it.

We are going to head up to the Wisconsin Dells for a few days at the end of the month. I've always liked it there. Not sure what we'll do yet, but we'll figure it out. I think she was pleasantly surprised with the idea.

Of course, you may be doing that all the time these days - you don't tell us anything anymore.
I'll try to be better about that! Although I do have a few stories that might not be too good to repeat on a public forum.

Good work, Fudgey - we're all pulling for you.

 
Well, I just got caught up- I've missed so much! Especially some fantastic art work- nearly had coffee all over my desk- damn would that hurt! Congrats and good to hear all is still going well.

Now anyone got any ideas on what to get a boy for Valentine's Day?

Beer/liquor and a quickie is always well received.

When I get my diamond, he can have all the beer and quickies he wants. <_< Until then, he's getting something pink and fuzzy and stuffed unless you all can think of something better. :D

Squishels: it is been done already.

Relax, it is safe for general audiences.
