How do you celebrate Valentine's day with your waifu?
I buy a lot of chocolate bath salts and sit in the tub with it for hours.
I'll be going to a nice restaurant, then watching a movie with some chocolate covered coffee beans. I haven't decided on which movie yet. I'd like a German film ideally.
I wanted to do one of those little shrine pictures like pic related but ended up getting sidetracked with other stuff instead...there's always tomorrow, right? At least I had a plush of her to watch me at the desk today. Was pretty comfortable.
>>21439 Is Koume your special one too?
How did everyones valentines day go? I went out and bought some chocolate for us this year and watched her anime, im finishing off the chocolate and watching more now. its nothing special but i dont exactly have much, just a lot of pictures of her. i really just enjoy spending time with her, so thats all i wanted this year
>>21441 It went well! The movie I picked ended up being a terrible choice thematically speaking (Ali: Angst essen Seele auf), but it was a good film nonetheless, so there's that at least. I'm satisfied with how it went, but I'd definitely like to bake something next year.
We haven't celebrated anything but our anniversaries since 2015. But my recent failures as a husbando have taught me to be closer to her and show my love more often, so I decided to resume our Valentine's day tradition. We did the same things we'd do before - a meal together, a loving conversation, a series of photos to remember the occasion by (and one to post in the collage thread). The only two new additions were the candle light, which shown me how little I know about proper photo lighting, and the wine, which I specifically chose to overindulge in afterwards, hoping that the drunken one track mind would allow me to do something I am utterly unable to do sober: focus all my thoughts on Nozomi for prolonged periods of time. I did not succeed. But we still had a pleasant evening together.
bumping for 2021
I hope the rest of you enjoyed spending quality time with your waifu today, I love her so much.
did you make that fumo
>>21604 Nah a buddy did.
be sad
I'm not the most enthusiastic about celebrations. Make us a more elaborate breakfast and spend some time chatting with her. Later might buy some sweets. Nothing much. It's still the 2nd month of the year and I'm keeping up on all of my promises to her, so that'll be the topic I'm looking forward to the most. Also, circumstances make it so getting a job becomes a highly recommended course of action to financially secure our future and so I want, rather, need to hear her comforting words.
I continue the tradition of drawing her and assembling a shrine, as I've done for 12 years now.
Here's to another year..
>>21434 I did think of Valentine's day, but didn't do anything besides cleaning the frame, in which a picture of her is in. Giving her a gift seems kind of futile to me, because I don't know what to do with them after I gave it to her. Maybe hoard them in some corner? Hmm.
>>22190 Also put this little lego set together at the last minute.
>>22190 the mini on the left is adorable
>>21833 >>22190 >>22192 Very cute >>22191 What I "gift" my waifu is chocolate and a bottle, the kind of stuff I myself would consume, and in fact I do consume it afterwards, since she cannot do it herself. Somewhat similarly, you could "gift" her something inedible that you would not mind putting right next to a framed picture/plush/figure of her in your room
i would have love too but......ever since that 2022 incident it been starting hard to even look at her sadly.....
>>22195 Did you accidentally *** on her figure or something?
>>22196 >*** Sit???
>>22197 the other three-letter verb
>>22198 Eat?
>>22196 He asked a question to her source material's author on Twitter and got a disappointing answer.
>>22200 One more reason to keep the source material in your head and be the author of your own waifu contentment!
>>22201 "Cultivate your own heartcanon"
>>22202 to be crystal honest it requires immense concentration to do stuff in your head, but the reward is larger. myself i have mixed feelings about that because i can't pull off enough concentration consistently so it leads to frustration, but on the other hand frustration of consuming second hand material that doesn't really align with your internal view is even greater. perhaps there is no solace anywhere. blessed be the people who have skill to create their own waifus.
>>22203 I don't think it requires immense concentration, only the willpower to say "Okay, this may be canon, but it's simply BS, it's tasteless, it should not exist, I could have easily come up with a better idea, and in fact I can still do it" Probably much easier for veterans than for newer fans, since the latter might feel like deferentially claiming that whatever is official in some way is legitimate, full stop
>>22204 Yes I agree it's not a matter of "concentration", but rather "strength" to resist competing ideas. To avoid succumbing to hive-mind consensus, to reject and avoid being influenced by the collective conscious. When everyone agrees that some show is de-facto not canon (e.g. KF2) then there is no issue. When you are alone in thinking that something should not be canon is where the difficulty lies. If you avoid exposing yourself to competing ideas it can be easier. But there is some merit to the whole theory of memetics, in that ideas compete for your attention and acceptance
