Dear Dayre,
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Now, I believe in the spirit of Valentine’s Day. I don’t believe in overpriced dinners or ridiculously expensive flowers, nor do I have any expectations for 👳🏻♂️ to spend lavishly on me for this “occasion”.
That being said though, every girl likes a surprise and I like surprises too 😂 The last surprise 👳🏻♂️ gave me was a bouquet of roses when I returned home from my first overseas trip (after we got together) and he picked me up at the airport 😊
It was very sweet of him but I also told him off for buying such expensive flowers!! I checked the website and they cost $399!!!
Want affordable flowers, please look for my dear friend at @/fangtastic.co on Instagram because she does the loveliest floral bouquets (fresh, dried or even novelty blooms) at very affordable prices!
👳🏻♂️ isn’t really the very romantic sort. He’s a very practical man and his way of showing love is in providing for me, feeding me well and acts of service (like sending me around, running errands for me, helping with carrying heavy stocks for TVD etc)
I wouldn’t think he’s great at surprises as well because he’s just too practical like that 😂
I didn’t expect any Valentine’s Day surprise from him but he did prepare a gift for me and passed it to me in the most unceremonious way yesterday!
Ehhhhh…. Make the effort to buy present liao could have hid it in the car or maybe under my pillow so that I’d discover it today right but nope.
Unromantic 👳🏻♂️ shopped for my present yesterday before picking me up from my fitting appointment in town with @evonnz and handed it to me the moment he saw me with a “Nah, your Valentine’s Day present.”
I guessed what it was from the paper shopping bag already because it was something I wanted to get some time ago. We went shopping for it together previously, but didn’t find one in a nice color/design that I liked.
😊😊😊
It’s a card holder for me to carry a card and some cash whenever I’m using a small bag that can’t fit my long wallet!
Me like!
Simple design, classic color. Compact enough to fit in all my small bags and hold a little cash and my card ❤️
👳🏻♂️: “Sorry the receipt all that is inside so if you don’t like the color and you want to change then you better do it now”
👩🏻: “Oh okay so I open this now? 👀✨”
*unwraps ribbon and opens box in middle of Orchard Road*
👩🏻: “Ooooooo okay I like the color no need change 🤗”
Not much of a “surprise” to be sure, but I feel the love 💑
And there I was wondering why 👳🏻♂️ got so grumpy over whatsapp when I asked him to make a trip back to the car to pick up something for @evonnz – He apparently was worried he didn’t have enough time to shop for my present and got annoyed with me for making him waste precious time to run my errand 😂
Happy Valentine’s Day to you 👳🏻♂️! I didn’t prepare anything for you but your best present is me 🙆🏻♀️
