Well I am embarrassed to say that I do not even have one memorable Valentines Day Memory. But I am still hoping......
My best Valentines' Day was meeting my E-harmony match. I lived in Massachusetts and drove up to Burlington Vermont and Patrick lived in Chateauguay Quebec and took a bus to Burlington where we met face to face for the very first time. We spent the weekend together completely enveloped in a magical feeling. That was 8 years ago. I moved to Quebec where we were married that Autumn.
My worse valentines day ever was about twelve years ago. I had a romantic evening all planned out for myself and my than boyfriend and showed up at his house for the plans that we both agreed a few days beforehand. When I arrived, some of his friends were there and he was getting ready to leave the house. I reminded him of our Valentines day plans and he said he made plans to -get this-watch porn with his buddies! Go figure. I guess they had a "romantic" night! I broke up with him the next day in case you are wondering. There were other issues that brought me to that decision but that was the last straw!
Our best....without a doubt. After THREE years of trying to get pregnant we decided that we needed to take a break from all the tests, procedures and one sad negative result after another. We determined our lucky day must have been February 14, 2004. Our son was born 9 months almost to the day later!
