It's Valentines! Lets hear your stories...

[Shropt]

Happy Valentines everyone!

This is that one day that men and women are allowed to be mushy and talk about love. I'm not talking about love between a man and his Jabba, I mean real love.

I want to hear peoples great stories where their loved one bought them a toy, understood the purchase of a toy, or heck, even broke up over a toy.

I'll start. My wife is actually a little sad right now that she couldn't get me a toy for Valentine's day. She's been searching for weeks for a R4-K5 (Vader's astromech) from Hasbro. She even went so far as to secretly cut out the back of a Saga card from the trash so she would remember who the little droid was. Now that is love!

My wife is on the verge of killing me because I may have to go to rehearsal tonight instead of staying home, AND my throne is coming today.

My girlfriend sent me some frosted cookies for Valentine's Day I love 'em!

I sent her flowers and a box full of stuff.

Plus a Victoria's Secret Giftcard to get some lingerie!

 

[abstractharmony]

I've got my wife nothing!

Nor has she got me anything.

Why?

Because everyday's like Valentine's Day in our house...except for the days when I get a delivery of toys and then it all goes a bit frosty...

 

[Anthos]

My wife and I just had a baby in September, so a small present this year and a card from our daughter was all we did. I personally don’t care for the holiday, but most guys can really only hope to break even that day. Women really have high expectations generally for V-day

When in doubt, I whip it out, say I'm in a Rock N' Roll Band...IT'S A FREE FOR ALL!!!

I HATE Valentine's Day. If you love someone, you should show them everyday, not just Feb. 14.

The commercialism of this Hallmark holliday makes me sick. The notion that you don't love someone unless you spend a couple hundred dollars on them is disgusting. And the "To get what you want, you better give her what she wants" adds make me want to vomit.

So F Valentine's Day!

Well, I don't hate V-Day as much as you, but I do agree in that it's been blown to an ugly scale and too many people have come to make it one of a handful of days a year they give their loved one all they've got, and I totally believe that you should give 100% everyday.

Well, my V-Day plan was to be with my girlfriend today and proposing to her and being able to call up all of my friends and say hey guess what...a very nice compensation to being away from home when the might Jabba came to me...but alas, a bump in the road was hit and plans have been squashed, so now I'm spending it stuck at home alone with no girlfriend, and mighty Jabba is being dropped at work which is too far away for me to drive to amidst the nice ice storm my area is getting pounded with. Perhaps someday, I'll have a V-Day that doesn't feel dysfunctional.

Having found my Booyah! on the Sideshow Freaks Board was my best Valentine's present ever!!!!!!!!! Or even best present ever, does not even have to be Valentine's day for it. I am the luckiest girl on Earth. He even comes with an instant Star Wars collection and I with an instant Lord of the Rings and little Marvel collection.

My Valentine's gift for him was the Star Wars bookends... and I made him a special album that he still needs to receive and I sent him also another prezzie but I cannot say what it is because it is in transit lol.

But he gave me the best present ever. He gave me my own star. My name forever in the International Star Registry in the Andromeda constellation. Talk about the most romantic gift ever. Then he also sent me flowers but since we are having a serious snow, ice blizzard/Nor'Easter... I will not be at work and I doubt that they will deliver my flowers today. So I will get them tomorrow. :chew :chew

After being alone for 9 years... being in love is the best thing ever... especially when you have such a great connection with someone.

Thank you Sideshow and Freaks for bringing love into my life and not only with the wonderful statues that brought us together.

I didn't even realize it was V day today until this thread.

My girlfriend doesn't care about this ***** and if she did she wouldn't be my girlfriend.

FU*K Valentines Day

aww........how sweeet.....but I still think it's a crappy day coz my gf drove me crazy reminding me what I should get her for Valentine's Day! And I hate myself for buying her exactly what she wanted.......sigh!

 

[Shropt]

Wow, my thread has gone down the tubes.

Let's try this again. The idea of the thread was to tell stories related to toys that involve your significant other. I guess you can slam V-day all you want, but I would still like to hear some stories.

So, let's hit that reset button and try again.

PS. Here are some bunnies to brighten everyone's day.

Too bad that some people say what they want to have for anything. I like to be surprised and surprise people because then you have to put thought in it and it will come from the heart. That has a lot more meaning for me. But that is just me

You are absolutely right! Booyah is a lucky guy!

 

[Customikey]

Could we not call Valentine's Day "VD?" It makes the posts sound gross.

Trust me... I am the lucky one

When you are alone for a long time you tend to give up on love. But for me it was definitely worth the wait.
