Interacting with Your MLCer Re: Valentines Day
#80: February 13, 2011, 05:55:39 AM
I am getting my H the same as I got him last yr only in blue... Sweet FA  ;)

Until i feel my h fully respects me i could not bring myself to write lies on a card that means nothing. I read what he wrote on last yrs card to me Barf....shortly before he once again made contact with OW so....does it really matter ????

I don't get Valentine's day... it's a purely commercial day, and only a day. It's nothing compared with the bumpy ride we're going through.

I feel so detached that Valenitines day has no sifnificance for me. It is likely that H wil take OW somewhere lovely but I am not going to let it have head room.

There is no point. What will be will be lol.

I was in a supermarket the other day. As you walk out all the clothes are there. Ever since he has been gone I looked at them and things I would have bought. That day I walked past and didn't notice. Yes detachment  ;)

I agree very commercial ............ but instead of our MLC getting a card from us or we receiving one I send one to you all ,

Happy Valentines Day !!!!

People come and people go,
In and out of your life and so
When one shines bright among the rest,
And is there when needed, you're truly blessed.
That is how I see you all, cyber friends of mine,
And why I'm sending this Valentine.


WITH LOTS OF LOVE and thanks

??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

I dont know if I totally messed things up today....I gave my H a V card.

it was a lil pushy...saying our love can pull us through anything Happy V day

I put my own sentimentals in there as well...

" I will be the lighthouse in your fog, the beacon in your storm, your strength when you are weak, and your rock
when you need someone to stand and fight..Because, YOU are worth it!"

I said, I know you cannot take this with you, and I dont want to upset you..but happy V day.

He cried. Said thank you. I gave him a hug...He dried his tears and said...please do not throw this away.
I said: of course not. and then he just said..I have good moments...Good moments.
( whatever that meant)

Oh well, I had to do it. I have never missed a single day that deserves a card. I dont think I can start now.

synicca,
I don't see anything wrong with the card you gave him. It says things that you are feeling. But I am a newbie so might not be the right thing to say to you. The others will chime in.  I gave my h a card kind of like that for our Anniversary. He said he would take it to work. I said to him "If you are just saying that, and are going to throw it away as soon as you leave, then I would rather keep it, and save it for you." He smiled and told me he was really gong to keep it at work. I was upset because I knew why he had to take it to work and not to the apartment. But I was also happy that he even wanted to keep it.. But like I said  I am such a newbie, I am not detaching very well. I have so much to learn from you all.

bewildered,
Thanks for the Happy Valentines! Really nice words.

Thanks Ibelieve....This whole thing is insane isn't it? Questioning something as simple as a card...when it never
was an issue in our minds before, we just did it.

Ugh! Our Anniversary is on the 28th of this month, another very difficult and painful day ahead..but I'll be damned
if I dont get him another card...:)
