I'm actually making my BF an old school valentine...red and pink heart with white lace, glitter, and macaroni!!! Lol freshman in college can't afford all these great things, so I'm making something from the heart
.
I don't think we're doing anything special. I'm not really into spending money just to show how much you love someone. As long as he knows how much I appreciate and love him, that's what matters
!
I have a great story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So I met DH at college. We were sophomore's at a two year college, so it was our last year. I did not have plans to continue college.
I (somehow!!) had been elected for Homecoming Queen. Let me tell you, that was so far off it wasn't even funny!
I had a date to the dance. Then he dumped me. Two nights before the dance. I said to my friend, "This is my last dance in my school history, I am not going alone!!!" So the hunt began.
I had seen DH around college. It was a no brainer. I began the hunt for DH. (Let me clarify...I was NOT hunting for a HUSBAND....just a date to the dance!!!)
So, I left a note on his car, a message on his cell phone, a note on his white board at his dorm door...and got me a date to the dance!
So we went with some friends from school. We had a good time! They went on a beer run (my date and my girl friend...didn't think anything of it...) and after the dance we went to a house that he was house-sitting...talked all night. We tried to kiss once and my girl friend shot that down...
So that week we hung out almost every night. That weekend was Valentine's Day! (There is a point to my story...just bear with me...)
He went skiing that weekend. I got all excited and went to Wal-Mart and got a poster board, conversation candy hearts, glitter pens, the whole 9 yards!
I made this HUGE old school Valentine's card. Took me 12 hours to make the damn thing. I went to his room, placed it under the door and wrote on this white board, "Watch your step!"
Girls and boys, I didn't hear from him for 2 months!!!! Nothing, didn't call, I didn't even run into him at school, ANYWHERE!!!
So two months later, I see him for a BRIEF second at the store. All those feelings came rushing back and I was hurt!
So we had a big dorm meeting one night shortly after that, and he was there. Another girlfriend of mine and I decided to go eat our sad man feelings away and went out to eat after our meeting.
As we are driving home, we noticed a car was following us...flashing it's lights at us so we pulled over. It was DH!!!
He got in my car (GF got out so we could talk...) and we've been together EVER SINCE!!!!!
We talk about that dang Valentine's day card every year! There will be a day when I make him one just like the one before...but it was such a great laugh!! Later, of course!!!
