    Were you psychologically damaged by this?

    :D:D:D:D

    Ive had a few ecards does that count?:)

    Last anonymous card i had in the post was just before i split up with my ex husband. To this day i dont know who sent it.

    Last year we had a card come to the house for a "J" and my surname. I got my hopes up before remembering my Son has the same initial as me.

    Well, I guess you can count on your Mother's love, even if nobody else loves you.:D

    Remembering that you got a Valentine's card from her years and years later is (imho) even more odd.

    So is the OP's habit of starting random pointless threads. Maybe he's traumatised from his childhood? ;)

    Send anonymous Valentines Day cards are a bit sick.

    But a few years ago (well maybe 50) they were always anonymous; if there'd been forums back then someone would've said 'signing Valentine's cards is a bit sick'
    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....

    It wasn’t that long ago. I must admit that I thought it was still the norm unless you were giving one to your wife or significant other.
