Valentine’s Day
Only two weeks from tomorrow and we are at Valentine’s Day. So we are at the time where we need to begin to think of our best ideas for that someone special in our lives. Once again, I ask you for help. I have already given my wife the manicures, pedicures and massages. So I want you to come up with your best Valentine’s Day ideas.
What is a special Valetine’s Day gift to give to that someone special?

a hottub certificate for two
Ohmygoodness gracious THIRD!
Bed & breakfast weekend vacation.
umm, what special someone?
Dinner for two at White Castles!
haha, if I was to give something to the “someone” I would love to call special…..I’d give him a relaxing day, no work, no schoo, no worries, just fun, hanging out w/me and his other friends, maybe dinner and a movie, then devos together to end the night.
ack! thanks for reminding me!!!
poems, stories, songs, cards…
hmmm… i dunno.. i’m all about the sentimental
ryc: yup!
any photos on my site are taken by me unless otherwise stated
I like the weekend for two idea. No kids, no worries! Just romance!
A book of coupons.
Have a “cheese and wine” candlelight picnic on the living room floor.
Sex
Hi,
I hope you dont mind me answering, but the sweetest valetines day gift a guy has ever given me, was a card with a personal poem he wrote inside, and a single rose that he picked out. Its sweet to think that he looked at all the roses and picked out the one he thought I would like most. It shows he was thinking of me.

Well, my best gift would be great sex, since it is Lovers day. A day and night of romance; sweet notes and gestures. Lots of affection. Gift wise, to me, its not that big like bday or xmas, so something small. Lingerie or small gadget. I like the flowers ordeal, even tho its a over priced. Something about being given lovey dovey stuff on Valentines’ makes you feel good. The only occasion I will not frown when given a teddy bear.
well, I like recieving thought gifts, and giving them, something that they mention that i remember to make them smile.
Herpes. It is a VD and the day is VD as well.
I think Valetine’s Day is rediculous… fostered to make a few people a wad of money, and force the rest of us into akward, insincere gift giving (at least for me). I prefer to gove when it is unexpected. That being said, check out Sundara spa in Wisconsin… a certain hit.
Man……. I bought him Valentine Boxers and me some lingerie, some heart-shaped candles.. of course I didnt tell him I bought it, I just did…. and then the next day we broke up. I will have to return it all now. Man, you men suck. Well, besides you.
Instead of stuff make it something to do together – dinner out, night in a fancy hotel or something like that. Personally, I’d rather do something than get something.
a trip to Maui!!
I dont think that the world needs a special day to honor someone you love. We should be reminded of that everytime we see them. But its there, no matter I think. A special Valentine gift doesnt have to be something expensive or fancy- just a romantic time either at home or out that says you care about them.
Special boning time in bed with no kids around, dont forget a nice dinner and flowers.
Go to the website for the International Star Registry and buy her a star of her very own that she can name.
i make stuff
picture collages, food, cakes, candies, candle arrangments. i like vday
a single pink rose, dinner, a good movie, bath drawn for two, my hair brushed and massage to see where is goes from there.
Birthday present for Jill! (My birthday is on Valentine’s Day)
Haha, I think Jenny is the only one of us with the guts to say it, LOL. Great gift idea Jenny!
I’ve been talking to folks lately who have been telling me of $350 or $450 cruises. I am thinking about taking one myself.
How about a hot-air baloon ride with champaigne, etc. I almost did one with my mother years ago. She chicked at the last moment.
RYC:
“I believe in miracles.”
So do I, but I don’t know how happy the little girl’s mom was. She has been arrested for attempted homocide. Isn’t that sad? The baby is so cute…

Valentine’s Day is a stupid holiday anyway, in my opinion. My boyfriend isn’t obligated to get me anything.
He IS, however…obligated to get me a birthday present (preferably one that involves taking me out drinking, seeing as it’ll be my 21st birthday on V-Day.
)
Make them dinner. Make sure it’s not something that makes them throw up. Also make sure it’s not Hot Pockets. Wives don’t like Hot Pockets on Valentine’s Day, even if you try and squish them into heart shapes. And, they’re not even sympathetic when you burn yourself on molten ham and cheese during the squishing process. They just tell you you’re an idiot and don’t even get you any burn ointment. That reminds me, your Valentine’s plans should in no way involve ointment.
It is the thought that counts more than anything else. Kevin took me out a couple of years ago to the restaurant we went to on our first date.
Give her your love as you normally do on any day.
hopefully thats enough.
What is valentines day all about? Love for one another or a day for women to receive gifts?
Do guys expect anything on Valentines day, or do they get headaches trying to figure out like yourself, what to get for the special person in their lives. I would like to say the latter.
It is a no win for the guy day…because, no matter what you do, it will not be good enough.
hand made card and adozen roses with a heart shape box of chocolates.
Sex was an interesting comment. It makes one wonder how often that commentor thinks you guys get intimate, though. Does this person believe your wife to be sex-starved? Gotta wonder where this came from.
I figure you probably take care of that on an as-needed basis if you have been married any length of time.
Oh well, at least we know where some folks heads are at.

I think cheesehead591s idea will get you the goods!
L,r
You have kids…get a babysitter (for the whole night), take her to her favorite restaurant, go see the movie she wants to see and then start the laundry when you get home!
The day off completely….no dishes, no laundry, no kids, no husband (haha), and just her sit down and read a good book in her own motel room….ALL BY HERSELF!!! By the way, that would mean that you would need to do the dishes, laundry and keep the house somewhat in order to insure the fact that she wouldn’t have to do MORE work than usual once she got home! There’s always a catch isn’t there!!! lol
And fold it when it comes out of the dryer…don’t just dump it in an empty laundry basket.
How about a baby sitter (if you need one) and a full day with you doing things you love to do together. Out for brunch and then shopping for a special item for her. Something she would love like a new dress or pantsuit… you have to sit on a chair outside the dressing room and help her choose. Next it’s a trip to Starbucks or a matinee movie or both. Finish it off with supper or the movie could be after supper and dessert after the movie. You pick – what do you think? Oh, you need to find the perfect card and add some heartfelt words of how wonderful she is. Us womem love that more than anything!
That day is a waste of time.
I don’t know how you’ll ever top Last Year… was that V-day or some other day…. I just remember you had ALL the Ladies Wishing they had a hubby like You!!!
At any rate, I don’t know how she feels about animated type movies, but I personally have always loved them, & will be picking up Tim Burton’s ”Corpse Bride” for myself, & the DD….. If you haven’t seen it, I know Corpse Bride sounds a bit Odd for V-Day, but it’s actually a Love Story….. It hits the stores tomorrow, & the Cheapest place I’ve seen it advertised at is Circuit City for $14.99… It could be a Playful part of your V-Day romancing… along with the more mature hot sex, 
chocolates, massages, etc….. 
I take valentines day as an opportunity to give flowers, chocolates etc… to those who I think deserve them but don’t get any. anonymously.
we’ve kind of got this tradition of homemade coupon books. for christmas i got one with baby free weekends, free dishwashing, free laundry duty, and that sort of thing.
i would love a day of affection and attention. maybe a nice long massage. last year he cut out about a thousand red hearts and put them up allllllll over the room and got me a dozne red european roses and a diamond necklace. then we wtached ‘the notebook’ an dhad cheesecake and wine…….
i think he did pretty good! anything like that this year would be so wonderful. but i like the small things-the ‘sweet nothings’ so maybe more of that? oh and maybe a nice romantic bath with candles and all.
ok im done
good luck dan! lol she would love anything from the heart thats for sure.

Be creative, such as a wonderful weekend getaway or something….with other “perks”.
Anything that’s thoughtful ande special to the person receiving it. I once had a roommate whose boyfriend bought her a gray sweater for Valentine’s Day. While she liked the sweater, she was sad that it wasn’t Valentiney – it was just a gift, and it didn’t strike her as terribly thoughtful. I think there’s also an element of frivolity that should be addressed by a Valentine. It’s so easy to give birthday or Christmas presents that are things the recipient wants or needs. Nobody needs a box of chocolates or a bunch of flowers, which is part of what makes Valentine’s Day sort of fun. Do I need a bottle of Chanel No. 5? No, but I’d be tickled to get that.
I should also say that having spent much of my former life as a florist, I appreciate flowers, but would rather receive them at an unexpected time.
RYC: HEY!!! LOL I don’t think he meant anything wild about the comment. Besides, I’m married too. Just wait…now I’ll have to change my profile to something more…more.. well, you’ll just have to wait and see. I need a good toon.
chocolate i guess.
No one else has said this but it may begin to become cliche if overused
11 real White Roses…(not Red, Red has been overdone)
1 fake one
Hand written poem on beautiful stationary.
A simple note that says “I shall love you ’til I Die.” (If someone is not married to them and is worried about scaring them away write like)
If you can cook do so.
Romantic candleliy dinner,
If you can, serenade her. (even if you can’t sing the attempt will most likely be enough)
Hopefully there will be a clear sky and you can dance in the Moonlight…
Cuddle.
you’re on your own after that.
What bites is when you can’t do that for the one you love…
Candle lit dinner (at home- I hate competing with the crowd) and some new toys.
I can’t decide whether to cook dinner for him.. or to suggest we make something yummy and sexy together…. What’s something yummy and sexy to make together?
Do ALL of the chores at home for her for a day or weekend and make sure the kids dont bother her either. In fact send them to grandma’s house (if possible) and spoil her by making a nice home cooked meal for her. Throw in a massage that you GIVE her and just spend the day dwelling with her. I’m sure your TIME is of more importance than anything you could buy her!
Ps- I need some advice on a birthday present for my BF. Any suggestions?
You know her better than we do…get her something you think she will love.
A nice card, dinner and a movie is always nice for me. Valentine’s Day is not that big of a deal to me. It stopped being fun in grade school.

Definitely a weekend away somewhere, at a nice hotel maybe, with roses and champagne and all those other gooey sentiments. Chocolate, don’t forget chocolate. But the best gift is just quality romantic time together… give yourselves a chance to fall in love all over again.
A hand-made card or gift would be nice, maybe a collection of photos of you two… my bf is going to take us skating and I thought that was a great gift!
But really, the best is just spending alone time together.
I like concert tickets, personally. My husband is taking me to see one of my favorite bands on the 14th, for which I am very grateful and proud of him for being so thoughtful of my taste.
If your wife is not the concert type, I would suggest sending your son to a friend’s house for the night and taking your wife to dinner at a trendy and fun restaurant. Afterward you could go to a comedy club (I believe laughing together is a great way to be romantic). Sometimes it’s just fun to get out together and do something different. After the comedy club, surprise her by taking her to a beautiful hotel where your room has a nice view and is comfortable. Then see what happens from there
How’s that?
a nice spa or massage… or small get away
I think Time is the best gift anyone could give me at this point in my life. I am hoping to be able to go out to dinner with my husband. Without the baby! Paying your significant other attention is the best gift.
Anything simple and from the heart will be fine…
swing dancing. or wash their feet.
i don’t know. i’ve never given nor recieved one from a significant other.
Make her a field of flowers out of construction paper. Ladies love it when you spend time on them. Do it while you’re at work so that your bosses think that you’re busy and they won’t ask you to do anything.
Love and Peace,

Better yet, spend some money on flower peddles instead of roses. Make a trail from the front door, all the way to your bed. Then cover the bed with peddles as well.

Maybe get a photo album thing and put together some pictures of you two. I don’t know what I’m gonna do for Kevin yet. I was thinking the massage thing.
it’s my bday, so i never worried about it much..
Anything from this site…
a tatoo
If you really want an answer to that question, I suggest you ask my Jonathan. That man is the most romantic person in the world. Yay for me!
a scrapbook. handmade.
My husband will give me the same thing he gives me each year – a cookie care with the brown and white icing (they will do red at Valentine’s but I don’t like it) from Great American Cookie Company. This is my favorite! I can eat the whole think, by myself, in less than a week. I usually try not to eat crap like that or spend the money on it, but he knows it’s my absolute favorite. I was at the mall yesterday and almost got a slice, but resisted knowing that I will get a full cake in about 2 weeks.
sky-diving.
don’t wait until vtines day. that’s when she’s expecting it. take her out for a special night like a week early. that way, the good restaraunts aren’t as crowded, the spas aren’t backed up… you get the idea; and don’t tell her you’re going. just kidnap her & go. she’ll love it. gauranteed.
I just give candy and cards to all my friends… I don’t have a special someone.

My husband and I have decided not to celebrate Valentine’s Day. We made up our own day where we celebrate each other when we were dating and have continued that into our marriage. It ends up being about 6 months before/after our anniversary, so it is good timing to celebrate without having a traditional anniversary.
a scrapbook or collection of photos that mean a lot to you both <33
The best gift I ever received was when my hubbie took the kids for the day and told that I could do anything that I wanted and that he would take care of the children. That was the most fabulous gift!
A Chicago Bears t-shirt is the perfect gift!
A bear from build-a-bear, because they’re personal, but you can still have a nice stuffed animal, which is generic and sweet
oh and you can add cute little messages to them, which is cute
cook their favorite meal, but make it all fancy by using nice table setting and have wine with it (if you drink — I don’t, so we do sparkling cider).
Matching piercings- charming and classy.
I joke.
I’m not so great at the gift giving thing, I’m more of a “watch the sunset on an abandoned hillside” kind of person
Good idea, Dan! Thanks for asking. I will be back later to look for more ideas. This one is always tough for me. Wife’s bday is the 4th so VDay is sort of left out!

Straight razor, to shave like a real man.
Do you just ask trivial questions to give people the impression that they are capable of original thought? Delusions are fine when they help sustain a society, I suppose you could call religion a grand delusion, that has helped people keep their ethics and morality. However, this illusion needs to be smashed, just for the Hell of it.
I used to buy my special someone a crappy school candygram, and then right when she almost got mad I surprised her with a dozen of my homegrown roses. Then I explained what I did. She loved it.
And welcome back, dude.
I also see you’ve gotten a little into the web design thing.
Being only 14, I can’t say I have a good grasp on what the female gender would like…well, who am I kidding, does anyone have a good grasp on the female gender? *buddum psh* yay dry humor.
Anyway,
Perhaps play a game with her, like leave notes around…each one leading to the next and giving a clue as to what the surprise is at the end. At the end of the trail of notes put something nice like maybe jewlery or a room filled with carnations and roses (pricey, though)…I dunno, you could toy with that idea.
Avoid the candy hearts.
Give of yourself, do little things you know she appreciates. Maybe take her to her favorite resterant and slip a little love note under her plate,do the dishes or a chore she hates, things like that. Instead of sending her out to be pampered, you do the pampering.
To tell dh that I am pregnant. At first he didn’t like the idea of a third, but now he is disappointed each month it doesn’t happen. I’d love to bless him with news that I am pregnant.
a good Valentine’s Day present is whatever will make the person you are giving it to smile
chocolates and flowers are nice, but too easy; creativity is always a winner. Cheers!

romantic gestures can quickly get corney. i hate corney. make me naseaus. grand dramatic gestures. i’ve done the “broke, yet hearfelt” valentine’s before. i much prefer the expensive ones. jewelry. exclusive dinner at a restaurant that costs a mortgage payment to eat at. expensive long stemmed roses – not the sorry $20 bunch at your local florist. car service – not a cab. take me to places where i have to wear my diamonds and my jimmy choos. dont’ write me a poem. for god’s sake, don’t give me a stuffed animal. sweep me off my feet.
oh, and of course, many many orgasms.
The best idea I have ever come up with ( but have never used ). Is buying a dozen roses or at least a couple. Then hide each one in a diffent place. Places that your special someone can find all day long. Then have a great evening together.
a box of 10 gallon ziplock storage bags. Okay maybe that’s not for everyone, only the few who get the inside joke.
My favorite V-Day gift was a wedding picture of us framed with a poem that he wrote me when we first started dating. It wasn’t expensive, but it meant a lot to me.
Oh my gosh I almost forgot…something sweet. Make her dinner…something simple…just to show that you care. Maybe even a picnic…but definitely make a desert. Tell her all those wonderful things that you feel…that you know she wants to hear but are rarely said for lack of time. Just make her feel special. Now what is a good “guy” gift for “love day”?
Gift card to her favourite store and the promise to go shopping with her when she spends it.

I’m just reading for tho good ideas.. lol
Last year me and two other guys got together all dressed up and made dinner for the girls (scary – try making creme brulet (sp?) having no clue what in the world it is), then took them to a Valentine’s day Orchestra.
You.
=D
Andy and I don’t want it to turn into just another gift giving day, so we have a sort of corny, but fun tradition. We have to make a valentine for one another, not necessarily a card, just some sort of valentine greeting. The trick is we are only allowed to spend $5 max. The goal is to see who can come up with the most creative greeting without going over budget.
Hmm… First off, start with sending the kids off to grandma’s and Grandpa’s
(Whoever is avaible, rather) Make her a nice candle light dinner, something fancy, but easy so you can spend time with her. A ?Red? rose, a pleasant movie, and just talk like when you first met. Good luck =)
I guess it all depends on what her love language is…does she like it when you do things for her? Does she like gifts? Is she sentimental? Does she like it when you clean up? Will words of affirmation make her do a little happy dance?
Do not get her something because you would like it if someone did that for you..
Time is the ultimate gift in my book…but that is because that is what speaks love to me.
maybe you could put a coupon book together for her…send her on a scavenger hunt leading to somewhere you guys have spent a great deal of time together. Write her a poem…a song…
my husband did this for me one year….
buy her a dress and matching shoes, take her out to a place that serves her favorite food, rent a cool car for the night…and then take her back to the house at the end of your night only to have her find a romantic gift wrapped on your bed
Honestly, it depends on the person.
Hubby and I are considering a few things– a winery we belong to (yuppiedom has certainly gotten a hold of us) is having an event on the 11th so we might do that with a group; we were supposed to get side-by-side massages while on our anniversary trip but it didn’t work out, so I might set that up at a local salon.
We haven’t made a huge deal out of Vday before… If your wife enjoysd the massages, mnis and pedi
s and such, you could give her a day at the spa (or even better, a day at the spa with you); go out for a fancy dinner; go on a weekend trip to a bed and breakfast… etc.
A weekend for two. Judi
coupon booklet of ‘I will listen in silence to your dreams” — apres’ sleep dreams only count 1/2 value to longing/aspirations
A beautifully written love letter that I shall be sending myself because no one else would. >.> Darn.
does your wife know that you get gift ideas from xanga?
if i had a special someone (since i don’t, i will be proudly celebrating Single Awareness Day again), i would want a beautiful black and white picture of us that i didn’t know was taken or that i had forgotten about. i would want a dany of just us alone, even if it’s in bed all day. i would want him to put into words why it’s still me and will forever be me, preferrably in writing.
but that’s just me.
Everybody wants a rose and a box of chocolates. Not me. I want his arms to cuddle in, extra sleep in the morning and a bowl of oatmeal in bed for breakfast.
This is my first year without my husband. It is gonna be hard….but… his idea of a VALENTINES GIFT was to take me out fishing. (HIS hobby…LOL). My favourite Valentines gift from him in our 26yrs of marriage was the day I found him sitting on the driveway of our home and catching him crying. I asked him why he was crying …he answered with. “If only you had an idea how happy I am this moment, how very grateful I am to God that he answered my prayers and gave me you as my wife.” He went on to tell me how he used to pray for a special kind of wife…before he met me…and he said that God had answered him and even exceeded his expectations. *crying* I am going to miss my husband this valentines day something shocking!!! Sara
The absolute best sex my significant other and I shared was on vacation sans kids in Wyoming. I am buying a heavy silver paperweight with WYOMING engraved on it. He can keep it on his desk at work. He and I will know what it means; no one else will.
I like gifts with secret meaning to only the giver and receiver. Do you have any private jokes you can do something with?
just tell them you love her.
that would work for me cuz im only in middle school but for adults..you better buy them something.
The key is to remember the small, non chalant comment she made months ago about that _______ when you were in Texas. Then do whatever it takes to acquire said item. There are so many parts to this gift:
1. “You listen to me”
2. You went to such an effort FOR ME!!
3. I loved this ______, now it means something else.
She will tell the story everytime someone notices the item and insdie she will remember how she adores you for thinking of her all the way through.
Yes, I do have experience on this and yes I retell the story everytime I wear that handmade necklace we saw in some off the beaten path boutique in St. Louis. My favorite of all the gifts he has ever given me and it was Valentine’s Day too.
Don’t know if you still live in the same spot, but take her to the place you first met, if possible. Renew your vows. Definitely make it a no kid day. ryc: Thank you so much, I appreciate that you came by.

I read all the comments, it was fun! But, what are good gifts to give the men on v-day?
Send a valentine card (in a SASE) in a larger envelope to
Postmaster
ATTN: Valentines
Loving, NM 88256
They will stamp a little poem on your envelope and it will have an extra special postmark on it.
Other cities that do this are
Romance, AR 72136 and
Kissimmee, FA 32741.
Bath and Bodyworks is always a winner. My favorite though, is undivided attention!
Welcome Back Mr Theoligian. I am so glad to see you back. Everyday when i am on xanga i come and check out the feautured to see your journal to see whats new. Your questions always get my brain going in the morning. I was wondering where you have been and what new and exciting things you must have been up 2?.
For valentines day i want a Crescent moon shaped Tambourine… Or a Italian charm bracelet I want the charm bracelet cuz theres 19 links and that means when u hit 12 you have been with that person for a year. You should get ure wife one (for women if she has small wrists it can be like 17 links or less.). And u can start building her 1 with things that are Important to the both of yous kinda like a Time capsule, Have a great day. Let me know what you think of those ideas though.
Oh please…DON’T do the “Your very own star” crap…that’s just stupid. I like the idea of a hottub for two. That’s always nice. You could maybe rent a nice hotel room for the night that has a Jacuzzi in the room and take plenty of candles, wine, etc.
You should write a poem or a letter saying how special she is to you.
Sounds like in the past you have sent your wife to have experiences out on her own, for some peace and quiet and relaxation. How about this year you do something WITH her, like go to a nice bed and breakfast or spend a day with her doing something you both enjoy (and I don’t mean 15 minutes of sex)? It seems to me that I would like to have time with my husband that I don’t normally get to have, rather than something to do or have later on when he is not there.
I would also recommend to do something WITH her. A weekend away, a night at the theater, etc
I know it’s cheesy and not even “real”, but my favorite idea is naming a star after your someone. You can get one on line. And it may not technically be the real name of the star, but the thought is that the name of your honey lives on for all eternity in the sky.
I live in Illinois and my boyfriend goes to college in Wisconsin…because we don’t get to see each other as much as we would like to, I decided to get professional pictures taken of me. I will frame the best one and fill a box with his favorite candies and a pair of golfing gloves. I will probably throw in some homemade cookies because he LOVES when I cook for him!
The point is…get your wife something that she couldn’t get whenever she wanted. Like if you guys don’t get to eat out alone a lot because of the children, etc., then take her out for a night on the town!
I think it depends on the person. It has to be special, and you can’t generalize special.
-Adam
for a couple that both work or spend large amounts of time NOT alone, the gift of time is the best…. for me, it is time at the shore… make arrangements to post your xanga early, so no xanga for the day… no phone, no email, no IM… massage her yourself… candles, oil (a little goes a long way), soothing music…. you could even paint her toenails for her (think Bull Durham)… who knows, you could get a return present?
I had a recent boyfriend and I asked ” honey, with your ex-girlfriends, when you really, really upset them, what would you do?” He said ” Buy them a dozen red roses of course” … I said ” honey, with ME, when you really, really upset me, would you buy me a dozen red roses?” He said “Oh my god. Of course not.. you’re much too smart for that. That would just make the situation worse”
I am a scrooge for Valentines Day, Sweetie’s day, and any other similar Hallmark Holiday. If you cant show me you appreciate me on Feb 13, and Feb 15… then you dont deserve me on Feb 14.
(But then… perhaps this is why Im single?)
It’s the little stuff. Do something around the house that she really wants done, make a nice dinner, or find a babysitter (if you have kids) and take her out to dinner without her worrying about planning anything.
Why dont you buy her a round of dance dance revolution and play together? The mutual lack of experience will make for endearing moments and photo ops.
Lot’s of little presents, teddy’s and heart shaped things. Chocolate and wine, roses and candles. A romantic gothic style I think. Although I’m not impressed with the idea of valentines day. I prefer to make every day special.
Yourself naked with a big red bow around your neck…..Now that’s a good Valentine gift!!
Love, Candy
OOOH the star idea is a GREAT one!!!
Or if you know of a spot, you can get a babysitter and take her star-gazing in the country away from the city lights! Bring candles and a romantic snack/drinks, of course!
I like to leave little encouraging notes w/ Scripture references to love in random places where my guy will find them throughout the day…it could work the other way, too, if you did that for her. It’s a great way to let her know you’re thinking about her and cherish her love!
the person you’re giving it to can’t expect it. And you give it secretly.
Especially during pre-college years, you can slip it in their lockers or put it on the desk before anyone can notice…
That’s been my dream since I was little and it’s never been fufilled *sigh*
My idea that I tell people when they ask me for advice.. Go on a re-creation of your “first date.” It can be incredibly romantic or fun and memory-filled. Take a stroll down memory lane, for old time’s sake. =)
>Ariana
something small and thoughtful… a poem, a homemade card, roses, chocolates… give her a backrub=)
I’m a loser, I can’t get a date. -_-””
Oh my…I’m only reading comments on the first page and that answer about Herpes was hilarious! LOL
I suck at gift giving, so I’m the wrong person to ask! But something that comes from the heart. And if I’m on a diet-it better not be candy. Or at least not a lot of it.
I agree with the personal picnic….. maybe add in a little surprise like jewellery, flowers, chocolate or a massage…whatever she likes. Almost every woman loves to be feel pampered

cook her her favorite meal and have a candlelight picnic in the living room complete with blanket on the floor and the best china… champagne (or sparkling cider) , strawberries dipped in Godiva Chocolate, a personal poem that you wrote either about how much she has blessed your life or about how much you love her.. a foot rub. then.. have her go do something for.. like.. 10 min, maybe. while she’s in a different room, run her a relaxing hot bubble bath with soothing bubbles, candles, and soft music. tell her to let you know when she’s gonna be getting out and go put her bath towel in the dryer so that it will be nice and warm for her.. then let her pick her favorite movie and just chill with her.. let her know that you treasure her company and her love above anything else.. that her presense ( i don’t think i spelled that right) is all that you need to feel joy. above all else.. just let her know how much you love and appreciate her… and how happy you are to be married to her. that’s what’s so important…. good luck!
for my crush im going to buy a boquet of roses and give them to him randomly at school. lol.
