We don't do Valentines either. I do not need a card, flowers or chocs to know that himself loves me and stlll does after nearly 40 years :-D

Like Annie birthdays come and go unmarked except for family and friends sending cards. The children send cards or telephone on Mothers' and Fathers' day.

Commercialism has ruined many a celebration (not us) by marketing the 'necessities' that we are supposed to give. Rats to that!!!

Parents-in-law married on 14th February, but their romantic tendencies didn't rub off on their son.
We've been married many years now and the day passes as any other does here, - no cards, flowers or chocolate.
I don't remember us ever exchanging Valentine cards, but may have done before we married ?

I'm with Maggie re. cards.
Most family birthdays are November to February, so one has to think well ahead to get a decent choice..... Not many cards suitable for Grand Prix-mad, Rugby-loving daughters at the best of times though...............

We have never done Valentines, anniversary or mother/father days for each other but our chilldren send us a card on mother/fathers day, they don't buy expensive cards just the cheap ones. Don't understand the 'Happy Mothers day to my wife ' type cards etc.

We dont do Valentines day Mothers day Fathers day etc as feel they are so over commercialized.

As our Birthdays too are only 9 days apart . diff birth years lol, we decided yonks ago that buying each other birthday gifts was more like buying your own , When finances were a bit stretched we talked it over and said its not needed. We go out to dinner in between the both birthdays to celebrate. Same too for our wedding anniversary in August we go out to dinner. OH does send me flowers too and thats very much appreciated but he doesn't want a reciprocation

After 55 years married I think we have it sorted
