    That shows you care but not I love you... flowers are out of the question... needs to be unique and just for her

    Are you talented? Write her a song. Make her an original music video of her favorite music/song. Does she like animals? Take her horseback riding and plan a nice picnic..?

    I would take a woman on a balloon flight but they can be costly but it is an amazing experience>>in my opinion and somewhat romantic and unique.

    Some of my most favorite Valentine gifts were homemade.
    A dinner, a card, sweet words.

    Geoff I was asking chuff , about hurricanes... just to make sure we aren't blown away on our travels...

    Well to keep on the subject of valentines day... seriosuly what a crappy day, I have always hated it.
    Seeing those men line up to get flowers once a year to "prove" their love. Why not do that every day of the year instead?
    My ex and me never celebrated this day as he told me he loved me every day of the year and did not have to prove it just on that day.

    I agree rol, but it especially hurts this year doesn't it? The fact that it is plastered all over TV, posters, in restaurants etc. I will be at college that night so that's good. There is a woman there that always bakes, she makes chocolates and cakes etc, they always cheer me up!

    That's funny now you mention it ,I have not noticed anything advertised here about it at all.
    I have not watched TV in weeks and have not been in town either, maybe that's why.

    We are big on spontaneous little goofy gifts for no reason now but...
    In the beginning I made him valentine cards and birthday bookmarks -- I can draw so it was easy and years later when I see them saved and used, it really warms my heart.

    Not to feel outdone, he cut out magazine pics and stuff and pasted talking balloons next to them after stealing good card ideas from the ones in the store--I found out later. LOL They were corny and hilarious (looked like a kindergartener did them) but OMG the courage and effort really wow'd me.

    Hello

    You need to get her something that means so much to her, something that she is interested in.

    My boyfriend always buys me something sweet but with not a lot of thought. Last year I was trying get him something that he could have forever and nothing else could replace it. He is so close to his friends and family and knew that they meant a lot to him. So I made him a huge scrap book which took me 8 weeks to complete. I filled it with loads of things that brought back memories for him e.g T in the Park tickets, football cut outs, holiday plane tickets and photo's of course.

    Hope it helps
