That makes me feel better. My last girlfriend dumped me and got married within a year. It took me longer to get over her.

So how is your Valentine's celebrated?

with razor blades and a fifth of whatever clear liquor is on sale.

Like my rum plan! :)

Meh. I've kind of gotten over V-Day. I have been single for almost every one and the one time that I wasn't my BF was too poor to do anything nice. We ended up going somewhere with his mom on the weekend of. At least he bought me a cheap teddy bear on the day.

Last year I wrote my wife a poem (posted around here somewhere).

I was going to write another one, but I haven't come up with anything yet.

My husband and I almost always write each other poems, too.

Perhaps you can post them in the Creative Expression forum.

By the way, when is Valentine's Day?

Are cards dread? then.

I would rather not recieve a card but I do love poems or songs. I dread stuffed animals but oddly enough have recieved enough teddy bears ( not on valentines day) that I now have a very nice collection which is stuffed in my closet. oh I gotta admit the harley teddy is very cool.

(CNN) -- Saudi Arabia has asked florists and gift shops to remove all red items until after Valentine's Day, calling the celebration of such a holiday a sin, local media reported Monday.

"As Muslims we shouldn't celebrate a non-Muslim celebration, especially this one that encourages immoral relations between unmarried men and women, " Sheikh Khaled Al-Dossari, a scholar in Islamic studies, told the Saudi Gazette, an English-language newspaper.

Every year, officials with the conservative Muslim kingdom's Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice clamp down on shops a few days before February 14, instructing them to remove red roses, red wrapping paper, gift boxes and teddy bears. On the eve of the holiday, they raid stores and seize symbols of love.

The virtue and vice squad is a police force of several thousand charged with, among other things, enforcing dress codes and segregating the sexes. Saudi Arabia, which follows a strict interpretation of Islam called Wahhabism, punishes unrelated women and men who mingle in public.

Ahmed Al-Omran, a university student in Riyadh, told CNN that the government decision will give the international media another reason to make fun of the Saudis "but I think that we got used to that by now."

Yes.
