It's all about reciprocity;

Its about couples. Men and women couples.
Men are included and women are included.
I never HAVE to spend much, I can if I want.
To be invited over for dinner, drinks &? was not uncommon when I was a bachelor.
Unless if they have a Masamune and a Desert Eagle :D
Turn OFF the TV, end of the society.
This feminism of the men began long ago. Its what undermined Carthage, leading to it's fall to Rome.
In the past only women wore underwear. Then society encouraged Carthage men to start wearing underwear, like the women, and they lost their wars.
Later the civilized Romans adopted underwear also--you know the result.
because it has no real meaning to me. I do like to watch some
of my buddies do the last minute mad dash to get something
for their ladies for Valentine's. Every year it's funny to watch.
Now whenever I think of Valentine's Day there is always the
word Massacre at the end.
Trust me kid, you're not old enough/experienced enough in life to know what I'm talking about. But in the future when your husband is busting his ass at work for a 14 hour day, and your at the mall getting a $70 message, a $40 pedi, and another $200 pair of cute boots for no damn reason, and then saying "I'm not in the mood" when he gets home, he'll feel the same way. Divorce is up to two-thirds of all marriages. Almost all divorces are because of money, sex, or both. Guess which gender pisses away hard-earned money like water, and only uses sex as a weapon to get what they want? And then they want to be fawned over and get gifts on their special little day?
Like I said. I'm talking about the attitude of EVERY guy I know, and the reality of their situations. Maybe the wives on here need to read this and realize more of their marriages than they could ever know are headed to divorce. Maybe they'll realize that all those pretty nails, cute leather boots, bitchy attitudes, and the fake headaches weren't worth what's going to be coming to them.
A lot of the other men I know that are still married plan to leave their wife once their kids are grown and out. I remember listening to Dr. Laura one time, and she was talking about middle-aged women who's husbands leave them as soon as the kids are grown, and the women always blame the husband. He's a pig that just wants to find some one younger, or it was his mid life crisis, and so on. Then she said the majority of the time it's the woman that caused the split, because those men just spent the last 20-30 years of their life being miserable with an selfish, frigid, bitchy, nag that treated them like a paycheck and a piec...

And the husbands only stuck around to be a dad to the kids and were counting the days until they could divorce and get away from this miserable woman that was sucking the life out of them.
Maybe my post needs to be a wake up call to many woman that read it. As they bounce around wanting their little v-day gifts and always want to feel "loved" and "appreciated", have they EVER made their husband feel that way. I know some have (usually raised in good Christian families), but for the vast majority of marriages the answer is, no.
I'll put my V-day love into my kids. They desrve more than I could ever give them.
