i have been dating this guy for a year 1/2 and i have no idea what to get him this will be our first valentines together (the last one we were both working) i'm 18 and he is 22. (maybe helpful)
@la3horen,
as a guy i never wanted anything for valentines day, and have been lucky enough to date a couple of girls who didn't care about it either
@la3horen,
Perhaps a romantic dinner...he gets dinner and you get romance.
@la3horen,
Chocolate truffles and lots of em would be nice.
@la3horen,
i would give him a kiss but im 15 so u really dont want to listen to me.
@emshae,
plus you shouldn't kiss her boyfriend
@tsarstepan,
You want them to buy a pig, fly to France and dig for truffles ? That doesnt sound very romantic even if they allowed the pig on a plane. Remember...pigs cant fly...
@emshae,
I was probably at my most romantic at the age of 15. Of course we want to listen to you...
@la3horen,
I'm one of those women who thinks Valentine's Day is a silly marketing event, but I would suggest you cook him his favorite food for dinner and serve it while wearing a sexy dress. For most men, good food and a sexy woman is a great gift - probably in that order.
This is a holiday that means much more to women than men. So take it easy and just make a nice dinner and give him a nice card. Let him be romantic to you, if he can. If he's smart, he will make it a big deal for you.
If not, you will have to educate him, kindly, to the fact that there can be immense benefits to the man who makes Valentine's day a big event.
Pity the fool who does not realize that . . .
Small sentimental gifts are good for V-day. Give him a picture of you two in a frame. Focus the evening more on being together and not on gift giving.
Additionally, offer him a brown chicken and a brown cow. You'd be amazed at how men react to the gift of livestock.

Just stare at him. Without saying anything. For like 15 minutes straight. If he gets up from the table or begins arguing (which often happens after only three minutes) you must get up and follow him, maintaining a straight face the entire time. When the 15 minutes are up, pretend like nothing happened.
It's an exercise in trust. And trust is at the core of true love.
@Gargamel,
oooo.....I'm gonna do that right before I give him the goat!
Men probably would prefer that you forget that it's Valentine's Day. But aside from cynicism, maybe not a gift but just have a special evening; a good meal, maybe watch a movie-one that both would like, just have nice evening by being with each other and sharing affection.
My, aren't we all being well-behaved!
@George,
(yeah... I seem to remember last years... or the year before.... question re valentines gifts was a lot more...err.... less well behaved)
waves to George
Are you serious? Is it really Valentine's Day again? Didn't we just have one of them last year?
