Ah yes - your sons will grow up to judge everything by its price...... and will never understand that value and price are totally different things....... shame for them, and shame on you.

Wether it's time or money the best investment a man can ever make is an investment in his wife..If she's miserable, everyone in the house is miserable, even the pets

Call me a commercial sell out, but I still think it's sweet.

My dad still buys my mum a valentines day card and a bunch of cheap garage forecourt flowers, it's kind of tradition now. My dad is useless at saying anything affectionate at all, in fact I don't think I've ever heard him say I love you to my mum even on their anniversary, so its a sweet gesture, says he cares even if he can't say it. So just because some of you guys say I love or show it on a daily basis not everyone does.

Yes, well, in your case, you can return the "pets" when your rental agreement is up.

It's a nice holiday Kitty...And you probably need to scream at your dad.

my dads a miserable old git to be honest- not one for sharing his emotions other than when he's angry or peed off- which is more often than not so I won't be expecting any I love you's or anything from him anytime soon.

Even when i tell him 'i love you dad', he has to change the converstation- never had an affectionate word from him, but when he first picked me up form the airport after I'd been away for 5 months he welled up when he saw me and was quite choked- first time I ever seen he cares. But thats just how he is. Old skool I guess.

Gee thanks, I'd say I like you too apart from the whole apparently looking for dogs for fighting... as a fluffy animal lover I'm afraid that means I have to despise your very being

If your wife's misery/happiness is determined by the price of the gifts she receives, dump her, or exchange her for a better version.
