svjiminfxv Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Is anyone celebrating Valentines Day this year? What are you doing for Valentines Day? I don't celebrate Valentines Day as I have never really liked the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I've never been a fan of Valentine's Day, as so many women expect (or even demand) gifts as if it's their fucking birthday or xmas. But these days, I do pick up a box of chocolates and maybe a teddy bear or something for @Rain Dew on Valentine's Day, plus a card. But all in all, I just see it as a holiday that's pushed by greeting card companies to sell more product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I don't know if it's an age thing but I don't even care that much about my own birthday anymore. Valentine's day doesn't hold that much significance to me or my partner because we always show love and affection for each other.

It may be an age thing, because I don't give half a husky shit about my birthday either. All it is, is the day that enables me to say one number higher when someone asks me how old I am. I'm 42 now. Before you know it I'll be 50. Assuming I live that long. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the past two or three years, my friends had to call to remind me about mine. Otherwise, I wouldn't have even remembered. I came to the realization years ago that the only reason I even looked forward to birthdays when I was younger, was because of the gifts I'd receive.

Exactly. These days, if I can just get a day without being fatigued all damn day, THAT is my birthday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shagger Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I ended up sending Valentine's Day in hospital. Was admitted late Sunday night/ early Monday morning with some frightening pains in my chest and left shoulder. After the tests, it turned out to be a chest infection causing pneumonia. It was the inflamed tissues of my lung rubbing against my scest cavity that was causing the pain. A blessing in desguise really as it help the doctors catch the pneumonia very early. So yes, I've had better weeks, but I'm being discharged today. A few more days of medication and things should be back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear than man and I had knew Pneumonia as a child and had to be admitted because I could hardly breath either. When I had it, my doctor at the time recommended I had ginger root tea with honey and that really helped me recover a lot quicker. Red Reishi is another one that's really good at helping your body to completely recover from terminal illness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
