Hello to all!
Count me as one who is new here too. Hi, my name is Andrew.
So I'll add to the greetings and well-wishes here by wishing all (especially the ladies here) a very Happy Valentines Day!
But, tell me please, is Valentines much of big deal there in the Philippines? Is the man, whether husband or boyfriend, expected to make sure to favor her with nice things on Valentines Day? Or is it less a custom to do this than in Europe, Canada, and the USA?
Here a man is expected to do things like arranging for a big bouquet of flowers (delivered to her place of work so that all her friends can 'coo-coo' and giggle over this), a nice pink/red-colored & decorated card with well-written things from the heart, and, of course, nice sweets like delicious chocolates. All that is pretty much expected. Typically any man not doing these things is truly in the dog house.
Bonus: If the man wants to go all-out, he makes sure to do all of the above but he also arranges for a dinner for two out either on Valentines Day or a day close to it. Maybe this year the man would make a "date" with her for Sunday evening as the restaurants are booked solid on this Monday night. (Sunday night better, quieter, more romantic perhaps)
How are the Valentines customs in the Philippines? I am curious to know. Thank you. Andrew
