Valentine's Day is next week, as we all know. Everyone knows women love flowers, jewelry, etc.
Guys don't. Guys don't even always like to make a big deal about the day.
My question is what they really like to get or do for valentines day?
Any ideas?

valentine's . . .
Thanks for your help, I appreciate it!!
Did you get a Valentine?
DH was extremely good to me this year, like no other.
First, I got my tires. Not romantic but at the top of my list!
Then, on top of that he got me a Brita water pitcher and a Coldplay CD, "Viva LA Vida". I'd been wanting both for months but didn't buy them while we still had the house in WI for sale. 
Actually my Valentine's Day is most every day
Hubs did the weekend before buy me a new TV for my workroom and it is so great, Panasonic, 32 inch and looks like HD with just cable. I am surprised because the picture is so clear. This was an early birthday present for March but he is just a real, loving person and he makes me laugh every day of the year. Treats me with much respect and I just could not see me without him. Except for Christmas and birthdays we mostly do not celebrate but every day is a blessing with him.
Valentine deserts
Hi!
I too love to cook and bake!
I know this sounds plain and simple, but with 100 people, you can save some headaches, and emphasize on decorating cupcakes. Cupcakes are so in right now. Maybe you can make some chocolate, some white, or other flavor, and decorate with a nice icing, and some decorations.
Another easy way to go for a large crowd is fill chocolate cups with a strawberry mousse and a strawberry on top, fresh blueberries, etc. You can get these things at Smart N Final. Valentine cookies are always popular too. Make sugar cookies in the shape of various size hearts, and then have some friends over to decorate them, and put each in a clear plastic bag with a pretty ribbon.
Valentine's plans?
Well, I just got my son a few things off e bay for webkinz (secret codes intact), got my husband a coupon book to put in a card (the ones that say the "special" things to do that he can redeem, you know those). So, I'm done for valentine day. Otherwise, can't stand the idea of the day. Here I am crabbing again, like around Christmas. Valentine's day and New Year's Eve, waste of time to me. The only thing I like about Valentine's day are the sales on candy the day after to stock up for Easter LOL (not the obvious hearts, but you know). Anybody doing anything good or have plans for that day, or do you all feel like me "greeting card holiday."
Happy Valentine's Day! sm

TIA
Valentine's bingo.....you could make your own
Good luck!

Valentine's Day always makes me sooooo glad
Here we are, just recovering from Christmas/Hannukah/Kwanzaa, etc., and here comes another holiday that pressures us to go out and buy, buy, buy. I like holidays that don't require you do do anything.
Valentine Party games for sixth graders . . .
Does anyone have appropriate valentine games for sixth graders?? This is a tough age to impress; any help would be greately appreciated!!!
If yhour past bf's didn't like Valentine or birthday cards SM
seems they had a real problem.
I don't like wording of "serving", but if you like cooking, there is nothing wrong with that. Chores should be shared and there is no such thing as "man chores or woman chores". It is whatever you enjoy doing. Men do like to cook (mine does) and I do clean, but if you enjoyed mowing the lawn, there is nothing wrong with that. If you start to get taken advantage of, you will know it fast. Then you can discuss it.
I would most certainly give husband Valentine and birthday cards. Most men love that sort of thing. Nothing wrong with showing your love.
Need meaningful ideas for Valentine Present for husband, everything is geared up for the ladies!! nm
