Do people still send anonymous Valentines Day cards?

    Hi folks,

    I was just wondering do people still send anonymous Valentines Day cards these days?

    I always remember sending/getting them in my school days! It was fun at the time!

    I was just wondering if any people in their 20's send Valentines cards to somebody they like anonymously or are we all to grown up for that now!

    Any of you planning on doing it this year?

    Don't do it, py2006, don't do it. She'll know it's from you and it'll just creep her out...

    id love to get one, but i dont think anyone really sends them anymore. maybe u grow out of it? ive never sent one anyway. apathy and all that. but i still want one-love a bit of mystery...

    haha, never! Haven't done that since I was 15!

    I got an anonymous one when I was 18 but I was actually with somebody aswell at the time! She tore it up on me!

    I haven't done that since I was in school and although it would be anonymous, I'd heavily hint who I was - I thought there no point spending hours and hours making a card if he didn't have any idea who it was from :o

    I woulda thought that it would kinda freak a girl out if she got an anonymous card.. but I suppose its as wierd as gettin a pm from someone ya don't know?! I never sent one, never received one (anon that is).. when I was younger it would've been nice to get one as it woulda done the self confidence the world of good, but now that I am Mr Ego I have no need for it :D

    I remember my next door neighbour and myself used to write eachother Valentine cards but put "From Guess Who" and the end!!! hehe, last time I did it was when I was around 10 and he caught me putting it in his letterbox! :o Even though we always knew who the cards were from I was still mortified!! hehe :o I was only 10!!!! :o

    Making the card was half of the excitement of giving it to him! I was in school was probably only about 14 at the time.

    We did actually get together briefly after that, but I'm not sure if the card had anything to do with it.

    I've never sent one anon tbh. If you have to wait for Val's day to come around just to say you like/love someone, its not good.

    Efforts should be made throughout the year for such things imo.

    getting one can be quiet flattering and can make someones day

    God I would love if I got an anon card. But then it would probably be from some weirdo and I would have to leave the country.

    I have. but whats the bloody point in sending someone a card when you are too afraid to do anything about it afterwards :confused:

    I got one a few years ago off a guy, and it was absolutely packed with little poemy things and other .. stuff.. I knew it was him though, he couldnt come within yards of me without going near purple with embaressment.
    Sweet and all but guys who are painfully shy - not my thang tbh.
