he fell asleep on me again. we were watching a movie and he was falling asleep and i knew he'd just get sleepier and sleepier so i suggested we just turn the movie off and talk for a bit instead. id rather talk than be silent and watch a movie. he insisted he wasnt going to fall asleep anymore. well he did and even after the movie was over for a little while. this whole valentines day is really getting to me too. i know he isnt going to get me anything. not that i need some expensive object just something thoughtful even romantic. flowers and a sweet card would be wonderful. i read all the posts about how excited some are for v-day and how their SO's WANT to get them things/make it special. im just extra emotional tonight. its sucks. :/

I am sorry it sux.
Today is one of those days I guess. I got a present from my SO, he got mine, we talked on skype and everything was extremely nice.
Then later when he called to say good night and i told him i was reading my text book something unexpected happened: he sent me a Vday card with $200 inside and I got it yesterday. He sent me the $ so I could buy books. I did not ask him for $ but apparently he just wanted to help and he thought I haven't received ANY BOOKS AT ALL, NONE. But he misunderstood, I haven't received TWO of them that are very important and i need them NOW and it was taking a while for the web site to figure out what happened and send me new ones. Well he sent me the $ but today after he heard me saying that he misunderstood and some books i did have, he just got quiet and did not want to talk on the phone. Then messaged me on IM and said that i was lying to him etc.etc I was hurt. I was not lying to him. And it is not about hte $. I was happy to get the $ just because I felt like for the first time in my life someone did something big for me just out of love and kindness, but it was not that. HE wanted me to buy all the books and since it was not the case he was disappointed and thought i lied to him! Why did he do that in a first place then I do not know - I did not ask him for $.
Now I feel like crap coz I did nothing wrong, and the lovliest day was completely ruined because i was accused of lying AGAIN and i did not lie to him!

I am sorry for bragging in your post Machstx. I just wanted to say taht it must be one of those days today...you are not alone feeling bad tonight. It is 2 am and i cant fall asleep.

[machstx]

oh yuck. i can understand how disapointed you are this silly holiday.

i hope he will listen to you after he has calmed down and came to his senses that you were not lieing. good luck love hope you get to sleep

My SO used to fall asleep on me ALL THE TIME. But after some serious talks she somehow managed to stay awake - without getting too sleepy. It also helps that we mostly talk in her mornings now (we have a 12 hour time difference).

I already know that she will be quite tired once she goes back to uni in like 2 weeks, but we'll see how our talking routine works out then.

For Valentine's Day we're only sending our monthly love letter package. So like a love letter and a usb stick filled with pictures and videos. Oh and she also sent me that LFAD candy gram which was very sweet.

I'm sorry you're feeling so down about Valentine's Day. I hope you'll feel better about it and his sleeping - that it'll get resolved, I hope. He sounds like he's just stubbornly determined to spend time with you, sweetie.

He so is silviar. He feels terrible. My frusteration with him falling asleep comes from the fact that i work 5 more hours than him and have alot of travel time. Anyway thanks for the support guys
