I have to find many many ways to make sure my girlfriend knows i love her. I am completely stumped.

Dinner, Hallmark card, overly expensive bracelet, flowers.

Pretty standard stuff here.

DJP952 for the win. Yeah, a card, some flowers, the usual here too.

Hmm, let me see, never had a girlfriend or anything, and currently in the process of doing Leaving Cert Mock Examinations for the whole week unfortunately. So for Valentine's Day, I'll probably be studying.

LOL. Let me know how uninspired that seems after 8 years of marriage You'll be surprised how quickly the inspiration becomes "shoot, got her that. Got her that too. Yep, she has 10 of those" ...

On our FIRST Valentine's day, as mere boyfriend and girlfriend, here's what I did. Perhaps it's more up your alley:

- Bought her a collection of Charles Dickens novels (in one volume)
- Bought her a small print of a Mary Cassat painting at the National Art Museum in Washington, D.C.
- Went to see Gisele (a ballet) in Richmond, Virginia
- Treated her to a 5 course meal at some fancy pants restaurant in Richmond afterwards.

Better?

edit: After confirming this with my lovely wife, I seem to have forgotten that I also gave her a copy of "Return of the Jedi" on VHS. ROFL. In my defense, it's because she told me she'd never seen it Oh, and some Godiva chocolates too. Man they remember everything, don't they? I don't even remember what I had for dinner last night.

And once kids enter the picture, you just want to be able to spend time alone.

I wrote a love poem/letter for my wife once for Valentine's Day. Only took about 7-8 days, but it was something she really loved.

This year she is getting a card and maybe dinner on the weekend if we can get someone to watch the boys.
