As if Valentine's Day isn't enough pressure on the guy or the relationship as a whole, now you only have a few days to figure everything out. No matter at what stage you may find yourself "relationship wise", there is always an option for a thoughtful gift. Here's a helpful guide to make that day as special as she is to you!
You two just met.
You met a couple of weeks ago and find yourself thinking about her on a daily basis. While you still may or may not know how she feels, a thoughtful gesture should be enough.
1. Call her the day of Valentine's Day and tell her how you feel.
2. This is your chance to ask her out on that date you've wanted for a while.
3. Do not freak her out with a gift.
0-3 months of dating.
The both of you find each other intrigued in one another. You have now been going on a few dates every month.
1. Her favorite flowers. Why not get roses you ask? Roses say I love you.
2. A Valentine's Day card. Stick to the humorous cards.
3. Dinner.
4. Have a low budget.
In a relationship.
It doesn't matter how long ago you declared her as your girlfriend; you are in a relationship because you both care. They support and trust you, you agree that you don't want anyone else and you might be in love with them. Hopefully you have been listening to her wants and needs for months now.
1. For the Sport Nut.
I'm sure she's been eyeing a new pair of running shoes, the newest water bottle or the new line of sport wear at Victoria secret!
2. For the Fashionista.
Who wouldn't want a shopping spree!? Give her a budget at her favorite store and let her run wild.
3. For the Lady Book Worm.
The sequel of her preferred book has finally arrived, or better, her favorite book is now a movie and she's been waiting anxiously to see it.
4. For Miss Adventure.
Take her away from all the studying and hormonal girlfriends for a weekend at the slopes.
6. For the Romantic.
Can anyone say Victoria Secret?? Sweets, Roses, a love letter that will make her knees weak and jewelry. How about a bouquet of Lacey underwear? All you need is tissue paper, fake flower steams and it's super easy to roll the underwear into roses (items found in Michaels Craft store and Victoria Secret).
Top everything off with a home-made dinner or a reservation.
It's important to stay creative. This holiday can become corny and cliche really quick. Don't just hand her a gift and call it a day.
Ladies, let's not forget that men need appreciation as well. Guys are more simple and they don't want much but some alone time with you.
Just like Christmas, there is a meaning behind this holiday. Don't forget that you are celebrating each other!
Stay safe, smart, and wrap that gift up.... XOXO.
