Then its off to get another peace offering and the list gets put in storage again. Smart guys only screw up Valentine's Day once. Fortunately for me, mine occurred over 17 years ago.
I don't "keep score" on "occasions" like birthdays or holidays. It's too easy to be disappointed and feel crushed. No expectations means fewer problems.
I hope your gift was color appropriate.
