Almost 9 yrs ago my hubby and i shared our 1st valentine's day together, he lived with roommates who didn't pay their part of the electricity bill, so we spent a romantic evening by candlelight listening to an enya cd via a battery operated boombox, sharing a small tub of my fav gourmet ice cream. A mortgage and a baby later, we still celebrate valentine's day with ice cream.

Love it or hate it, Valentine’s Day is around the corner and we’ve all had our share of memorable moments – some that touched our hearts or had us bolting for the door – on that annual occasion dedicated to all things love and like.

Now we want to hear about your MOST memorable Valentine’s Day!

It’s simple: log on as a mycineplex member and tell us, in 500 words or less, about a V-day story for the ages. The winning entry, to be chosen by the Cineplex.com editorial team, comes with a $100 shopping spree at the Cineplex store – and of course, bragging rights.

    • On Valentines I used the washrooms at a restaurant and got lost coming back up the stairwell. I reached a door that opened but it set off the ALARM!! I panicked and ran back to the bathrooms. I waited in the bathrooms hoping to feign surprise when I was rescued by hunky firemen attending the scene but the alarm was contained to the hallway and no evacuation ensued.

    • Valentine's Day changed forever in 2008 when my Mum passed away on Feb 15. I spent Feb 14th with family at the hospital holding her hand. I believe she waited until the 15th to leave us so that we could still enjoy the holiday in the coming years, and for that I thank her. This year I plan to mark this bittersweet holiday with family by having dinner and remembering the good times together.

    • My favorite Valentine's story - just because of its "sweetness" aspect - does not involve a boyfriend, husband or lover. It's from 12 years ago when the young man who was then the driver for the company I work for suddenly, out of the blue brought me 6 long stemmed red roses on Valentine's Day. The memory STILL to this day puts a smile on my face.
