Since the thread started with a daughter-father dance event, I thought I would include mine. I took my daughter (one of a twin) to a similar event in Laguna Hills.
I came home with a rose, and she went nuts.
She planned her outfit for over a week, and the evening was all about her.
It was truly a night she will always remember.
Always great when your daughter calls you handsome...:)

All I want for Valentine's Day is a set of PMO carbs. . . Is that really so much to ask for?

You guys that buy your wife clothes...........wow. Talk about stepping on a landmine. Let's forget for a moment that I would pick out something that she hates. If I pick something too small, it's "is this how you want me to look". If it's too big, it's "do you really think I'm this fat". Hell no.

We went out for a nice dinner last night, as I'm busy tonight. It was a good time, and there was nothing for her to yell at me for.:D

My wife wants to go skating. That's it... she even bought me skates.

My sentiment exactly... I bought her a potted orchid... works for me.

I do very well with clothes, she loves it. If the size or style is wrong she exchanges it and that's cool....but then my wifes not insane. :D

I made chocolate dipped strawberries and cherries for my girlfriend before I left for work this morning, and also left a bottle of Veuve Clicquot champagne & a rare CD she wanted on the kitchen table.

Hopefully this gives a get out of jail free card to use with this hot blond karate instructing chick I know. ;)

I have therapy. Then I'll bring on the full dance willie.

You're right, buying clothes can be a landmine. But some quick thinking on your part can really be helpful. Suggestion...

When it's too small - you say "are you sure this isn't your size? It looks like it would fit you perfectly"

When it's too big - you say "The salesperson told me this is a size for a slim woman - good Lord we could put TWO OF YOU IN THIS RAG!!!!"

Also, the Daughter-Valentine's dance was really really sweet!

I dunno Len?
Wife takes me into a store and shows me an outfit she's gonna try on. Size says 4; well I know she used to be a 4, but? I says, you're still the same size as when we met, thats great. She explains, oh no, some stores just put a smaller size on the label to make the ladies feel better, it's really a 6, holds it up against her and says see. :eek:

just gimme my XXL, thanks.

Oh Well Luis,

Happy V-Day buddy
