V-Card
Which brings me to my point 😄 : I bought him a kaleidoscope last week, and it's in my closet. When it arrived in the mail, I got the inspiration to write a poem to accompany it. I see things that I think he'd love and purchase them and keep them for when I feel the moment is right to give it to him. Late last week, I gave him a Buddha cat dashboard bobble because it was the perfect moment for a Buddha cat bobble to be given. So, I'm thinking that the kaleidoscope can be for Valentine's, but I also feel like getting us couples necklaces.
I found three that I liked on Etsy: one is yin-yang and they fit together, one is a key and a lock (this connects to a conversation we once had and a comment he made), and another is initial necklaces that fit to form a heart. It's important that the strap of the necklace is not a thin chain - he's not the type to wear chains. So, I'm happy that I can customize it so it can have a "leather" strap.
The heart is awesome because the colors are earthy and the shapes separately form very organic forms (it does not have the obvious appearance of half a heart.) Also, when fitted, the heart isn't the typically shaped heart, it's almost misshapen but it's close enough that a person can derive that it's heart-shaped. I love that. Thing is: do I wear his initial and him, mine? It wouldn't make sense for me to wear my own initial, would it? Would it be odd to give him a necklace with my initial on it?
The lock and key are perfect because they fit a memory we shared. The key is vintage-looking and it has character (leather strap and substantial size of the key.) The end of the key has an interesting shape. The locker isn't overly polished, which I like. I'm not sure if the key fits the lock, and I wrote seller to ask. I haven't decided if that's a deal breaker for me yet.
The puzzle pieces are unique and interesting - "we fit together" et al. I'm not sure if i like the appearance of the puzzle pieces separately.
As I write this, I can feel myself changing my mind about the yin-yang necklace, which was beautiful. The concept alone is great. But I don't think it connects to anything related to Us.
I know it seems early to be planning Valentine's Day gifts, but since I am
In the mindset and have these ideas, I would rather do it now instead of putting it off. Semester starts next week, and God only knows what life might throw at me, so I would feel assured knowing his present is safely tucked away in my closet.
Thoughts? :3

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww your monthaversary, too cute! This doesn't sound "cheesy" to me. For others (Cyber TROLLS!); it will. You and your SO are romantics! Enjoy the non traditional/traditional first Valentine's day on the 14th. This year, I myself, will celebrate it with my SO. I have posted under the Saggy message board and you are welcome to read it.
I started with Dating a Saggy and in between posts, I added "Dear Diary". A lot of trolls out there do not realize what love and peace is. So, every now and then I post to Dear Diary when I get a chance while at work. My SO and I are so happy with one another. That is what makes the world go round, not money!
Happy Valentine's day!
Love,
Eva

Posted by VivaciousScorpioLOL. Lily of a month ago would have totally agreed with you. Lily of today also agrees with you. But it's Our Corny, and I'm so okay with that! We have these moments when we'll say things to each other, then our eyes meet and we say "cooorny!" So, we are very self-aware. 😆
monthaversary is sooooo lame.
eurgh
you make my sag venus sick.

Posted by HeartThis thread isn't about virginity; it was a play on the term. It's about Valentine's. But thank you! *^___^*
It is sweet. But virginity doesn't exist by the way. Sexuality starts on your terms. Mine began with my first trip to the sex shop in December 2014.
Congrats anyhow!

trigger happy fingers :) Anywho she's a Leo and I agree with her. Please watch before commenting she brings up good points. I read somethings not to long ago where women have significantly lower self esteem than men (no surprise there) and it's even
This guy had a thing for me. I tried to apologize but he blew me off because he's so angry. I might see him in a few months . would he give me a chance or should I be scared that he'll take advantage of me out of spite. He can be spiteful and petty.
One of my friends told me there are some man who dont like strong and clever woman. What do you think, it can be true? And if yes, WHY?
Can you honestly deal with people of this nature in a relationship. I find it hard to deal with them when they're too insecure and it's hard to want to be with them when they're insufferable, whiny, or need to be coddled and reassured all the time. It get
The title says it all... Been with her for 5 years we had a split but was still seeing each other during that time. We decided to get back together and move together... Only for her to confess on Newbyears day she slept with a man... Im in shock bc i feel

This question is for the men. What do y'all consider all of the above? I fear that I may be these things, and I really want to change!
Just want to tell you. I had introduces 2 people and on the first and only date all seemed fine. He is 57 and she is 53. He took her to Dunkin Donuts...(no comments). After date he kissed her on the cheek and disappeared. After about 2 month
Hey, just wondering, is it normal for y'all to not reply back to Thanksgiving or Christmas texts? Note they are coming from someone you supposedly love.
I've been doing a lot of thinking lately about my lost love. We met in college, a Sag man. I was madly, deeply in love with him. I swear if he didn't pass away in a motorcycle accident we would be married and have a family right now. It took me years to
Heh.
My BF and I celebrated out monthaversary this past Tuesday. Cheesy, I know! 🙈 It consisted of us being around each other as we usually are except he arrived at my door with a bouquet of flowers. What I love most about the bouquet is that it looked wild. Each flower he chose was symbolic or had meaning. He sat down with me and thoughtfully walked me through my bouquet, pointing out how the single red rose with a single thorn coupled with the thistle is connected to a song we listen to together. He's an artist and a musician, and so he sees beauty and poetry in the oddest places and most especially in places most people only see flaws. "See that single black line across that folded petal?...How amazing is that?...And look at this -" I hung on every word. It was unlike any bouquet I'd ever seen: small, simple, unique, quirky, and oh-so-tender. "I didn't want to get you just any flowers. They had to mean something."
We went to a Vietnamese restaurant, and I gave him my gift: a metal spin top.
The best part of our first monthaversary was that it was accompanied by the first snowfall. The way it occurred was magical. I went outside when he came to pick me up, and that's when he surprised me with the flowers. So, we went back inside to sit in the living room and discuss the flowers.
When we opened the door to leave for the evening, it was snowing heavily. The entire street was completely bright white, the sky was twinkling with snowfall - it was so sudden, so unexpected, so joyous- symbolic of his and my friendship and love. My laughter was punctuated with his exclamations as we both stood there looking incredulously at the blanketed world.
Valentine's is coming up. I have never celebrated it before, and I didn't intend to celebrate it. During one of our conversations during one of our drives, the topic of marketing and false gestures came up and Valentine's was the perfect example to use. At the end, "Yes, we're not celebrating Valentine's!" He was quiet. I looked at him. "What is it? Did you want to celebrate Valentine's?" "Well, I'm going to get you something. But I won't be getting you something with Valentine's written all over it. Gifts have to mean something." I was quiet.
I have thought about it, and when Valentine's rolls around next month, it'll be a fun opportunity to have my first V experience with him. After all, I never thought I would ever use the world monthaversary in a serious context, yet here I am. I'm learning that love and relationships are so cheesy, and I'm actually okay with that. I look forward to it because, in my mind, it is yet another moment for the two of us to share together, and an opportunity to grow, bond, connect, and discover one another.
