magazine for my valentine


Question Posted Monday February 6 2006, 1:02 pm

I (19/f) got my boyfriend a subscription for Sports Illustrated as a Valentine's day gift. I wanted to be creative and get him something that he'd actually like. He's not into the typical stuff. The problem is that he won't actually get the first magazine until the end of February or the beginning of March. I made it so that he will get an e-mail from magazines.com telling him about it on Valentine's day and he'll get a card in the mail doing the same sometime around Valentine's day. So, all he's getting on Valentine's day itself is the e-mail. I'm planning on making him a card, but should I get him something else to give to him on the day? If he got me a bunch of stuff (I have the feeling he's going to go all out) I'd feel kinda bad. Plus, he'll get the magazine in his mailbox and I wouldn't actually be able to give it to him which makes it a tad less special. Thanks in advance.

If you feel like he is going all out and your not don't feel bad. The object of Valentine's Day is to spend time with the one you love and share a special moment. Don't worry about topping each other's gifts it's not worth is. Honestly in the long run that card or what ever he has got you will end up in a storage box or get thrown away. That goes for most gifts as well. We all have to the best intentions of keeping those things forever but in the long run its not practical. I mean Do you still have the gifts that other people have given you in previous years?

The whole point I am trying to make is that it is about quality time spend together. Everything else is just icing on the cake and makes for a nice time.

I did that with my brother at Christmas one year with a car magazine!

What I did was I bought an issue of the magazine for him and wrote that I hope he liked it because he was soon to have a years subscription to it. I wrote it on a card. :)
