I think its a compliment that he wants to get you this gift.It means hes so into you and wants you to show him how you use it!

It seems far more likely that he wanted to get you something that's a bit different and fun. It's definitely not a not big enough issue to get hurt, angry and upset over. Especially as you've already talked about it with each other and you've mentioned you want one!
So, no if I was in your position I wouldn't be at all offended and depending on the people, yes it can be a very good gift for Valentines Day!

So you want the dildo, and have talked about getting one, but just don't want it for Valentine's? But Valentine's is the day for romance (ad sex), so many couples give and get sexy gifts like lingerie or flavored lotions or take bubble baths together. In his case, he's getting you something to use during sex, instead of something to wear before sex. It may make you uncomfortable, and if so you should tell him, but it's not technically inappropriate to get you a gift to enhance your sex life that you've mentioned wanting on the holiday for celebrating relationships. And as Blonde68 mentioned, it's moe thoughtful than a cliche dozen roses and some chocolate (and a lot more fun).

Me? As a woman? I don't actually give a damn about Valentine's Day, so it wouldn't make any difference to me. If you're very serious about it and want him to make a romantic effort, maybe he could tie a ribbon around it?

I just smile and say you get me the best gifts (as I watch a big smile spread across his face). I can see the love behind each gift ,like the red bobble that is suppose to be a heart, the pea green teddy, the pots that have glass lids that I said looked neat one day, ext. These are the things that we look back on later in life with a smile.

You're asking our advice on whether you should be mad or hurt for him wanting to buy you a dildo, but more importantly, how are YOU feeling about this? At the end of the day, its what you feel that is important... if you don't want one, then you must tell him... if you do want one, then enjoy it!
I had one bought me for a birthday present one year, I was quite excited however, as I knew we would both get some enjoyment out of it.
But seriously, if it is something that you are really not in to, then I think it is best that you tell him. He isn't the first guy to buy his girlfriend a gift like this, and most certainly won't be the last.

Wow, that's, like, so romantic. Whatever happened to dinner and flowers, eh? "Happy Valentine's Day, my love, I offer you Fake Penis."
Anyway, though, why does he want to buy you a dildo? Have you two talked about this together, or did he just think it was a good idea on his own? I wouldn't be insulted by it, but use it as an opportunity to open discourse on your sex life.

It's a sex toy designed to impart pleasure, and that is what he wants for you. If you want something else, you need to clear the air with him.
