Of course there's always the risk of being slapped. In the past 5 years it's never happened

Last year I made up a game called "The Twelve Days Of Valentine" where I gave my wife a cliche Valentine's day gift everyday (day at the spa, Box Of Chocolates. Dozen Red Roses) starting on the 2nd until the 13th. On the fourteenth I filled the living room with tealight candles layed out a blanket and prepared a picnic full of gourmet delectables. She loved it, and I won huge brownie points.
Fast forward a year, and I realize the error in my ways. She's already talking about how amazing last year was, and can't wait to see what I have in store this year. I currently have no idea what I'm going to do this year, but know that I'm going to have to at least match what I did last year so shes not let down.
Moral of Story?
Don't Overdo Valentines Day.

I'm glad my wife doesn't know your wife.

I think that is very sweet.
My husband did something similar for my birthday this past summer. He sent a present to my office every day of the week and even brought me a new car on 'the day' of my birthday. Then he arranged for a surprise party for all of my friends on the Friday night. It was amazing. His friends were all really irritated with him though.
The problem is, every time I ask him what he's getting me for Christmas or Valentine's Day or Anniversary, he says 'Well you had a great birthday week, I can't top that.'

What are you expecting, a new car every year?
That's the problem with going with big gifts. No matter how extravagant or expensive it gets, women quickly expect it to become the norm, and are disappointed when it's not matched or exceeded.
Keep expectations low and you're bound to please. I'm pretty sure I disappoint my girlfriend all the time, so during the times I do come through, I look like a champ!

And holding a door open and letting a strange girl go through first is an insidious yet brilliant way to check out her a$$.
(ok it is, but whatever)
