>What’s one to do for Valentines Day?

The traditional guy may reply as such:

Pick her up with flowers, possibly candy.

Go to a nice restaurant, opening the doors and being as gentlemanly as possible.

Speak of pleasant relationship conversation, forward in nature.

Dance.

Get home with the teddy bear / teddy present and… off to the “boudauh”.

Is that enough — do you have to find a card, a dozen roses?

Are there required commitments, unspoken but expected?

I don’t think I’m doing very well thus far.

I keep getting caught up in the future, my goals — and how all this is supposed to fit together. Where am I going to be in 5 years? Still around here, doing the same thing? Will I find some great job somewhere in a far-away city? I’m so unsure of my life, fearing a year in advance. I have many puzzle pieces, whole sections fit together, but there’s some missing sections that may allow me to view it as a whole.

I’m fucked and ranting right now… so probobly not worth it to continue. I feel like I mean it all, but there’s something just not working for me. So many positives, and only a few negatives. What timing.
