The 6 Best Valentine’s Day Gifts Ever

Posted by Sheila Dollarsby on 09 December 2009

Valentine’s Day is supposed to be the most romantic day of the year. Women love it; men hate it. But why? Usually because they forget about it or because their partners place so much emphasis on the romantic gestures that are done for them on this day that men are virtually set up for failure. The truth is that it doesn’t have to be a day of failures; it can be a day of great successes if you know what you are doing. It is with success in mind that this article will prepare any man for not only making his partner happy, but make it a great Valentine’s Day for all parties involved.

1. Flowers. Flowers should always be the first step on Valentine’s Day. Before you see her for a romantic dinner that evening, make sure that you send her a beautiful bouqet of flowers to her job. She will want everyone to see them, and to see her getting them; in her eyes, this informs everyone that not only is she spoken for, but she has a good man that every other woman wishes she had.

2. Scrap Book. Scrap books are the latest and greatest things that women are into. If you don’t know how to do one, get one of her friends, your sister or her sister, or some other woman you know to put together a scrap book of your relationship. Be sure to gather all the pictures that you have of the two of you, mementoes that you’ve kept from some of your dates and outings, and special cards you’ve given her to put into the scrap book. Give it to her on Valentine’s Day with a box of Kleenex and be ready as she lets out Niagara Falls.

3. Hand Written Letter of Love. Give your significant other a piece of your soul; give her a letter hand written by you expressing all the things that she means to you. Tell her what you would never tell her in person.

4. Jewelry. Jewelry is a great way to say “I love you”, but it should be given to only a woman that you love deeply. Don’t give jewelry to a casual girlfriend that you don’t plan on committing to long-term: it could be deadly.

5. Home Cooked Dinner. This can work either two ways. Number one; you can make a home cooked meal for your woman. Make it something special and something good. Have the dinner table set beautifully, have ambient lighting, and soft romantic music playing in the background. Or number two; you can hire a private chef for the evening to whip something up for the two of you. You should still be sure to set the atmosphere right no matter which way you decide to go.

6. Do It All. If you really want to romance your significant other, do all of the 5 previous things listed previously. But if you are going to do them all, again make sure that this is a woman that you are serious about and who’s serious about you in return. A whole day full of romantic gestures can be overwhelming for a woman that is not crazy about you, but a heart winner for the woman that loves you. Happy Valentine’s Day!
