I go to the bars. Especially this year since its on a saturday. Find all the depressed, lonely chicks who are there getting wasted and looking for some companionship....

Giggity-giggity!

Hello, Frontpage!

I agree about picking up chicks around V-day, there is sooo much desperation in the air.

As faras dining, you have you be marsupialed to do it that day.

On one Vday during the day, I was practicing bike tricks in an empty school parking lot. In this particular year Feb 14 was on that day, a Saturday. This chick strolled into the parking lot and sat on the curb, sobbing. I shoulda banged her

My friend works as a host at a popular restaurant and says it's one of their busiest days of the year. it's invariably going to be kind of hectic and all that so if that's not what you're shooting for I'd avoid it.

Unless I go to a reservation only place, we always plan to go a day before or after.

This year I will be recognizing it the day before, just to avoid the extra obnoxious crowds associated with the day.

Usually they cry only after sex with you, not before.

Bad experience. Fixe prix ripoff. The waitstaff played it up by giving my date a rose, but all in all, waste of $250 bucks for a mediocre meal that on the 13th or 15th would have set me back $100.

I'm treating my classy lady to a candlelit dinner at Chateau Blanc.

in lieu of a dinner on v.d. we're just going out of town, but the kids come along too.

I know the notion that picking up girls is easier on Feb 14th, but I don't think I've ever bothered trying (unless I've forgotten). Have people who have actually done it noticed that it makes some kind of appreciable difference?

Go to your local meatmarket, find a lonely pretty girl and charm her (or buy her drinks) and buy her a rose when one of those flower sellers strolls by. Congratulations, you may continue to the next round.
