Suggestions for wooing her on Valentine's

[BrownEyedBoy]

I need help. I can spend around $200 on a Valentine's gift for my girlfriend. Last valentine's whch was our first I gave her this ring:

She really liked it and I gave it to her with a teddy bear that held the ring tied around his neck.

I thought that was a really cool gift but I really don't know what to come up with. Anyone know what I can pull? I need any sort of suggestion possible.

Thanks, I'm sure other guys will appreciate this thread too.

I actually like homemade things. Like poems, handpicked flowers, that kinda thing.

oh and foot rubs

Depends why kinda woman she is.

make her dinner. seriously. go all out and make something really nice, it'll cost less than going out and it'll be so much more intimate.

Gracias

Well, I kind of hope of giving her something besides jewlery this time. I guess Valentine's really is a time for that, though.

I just wanted like cool things to do. I have a sort of idea. Give her a rose when I go pick her up and then have 100 more waiting at home.

See, that really is a cool idea but I couldn't cook to save my life and I would probably just mess everything up. I'm still thinking though.

Thatd be beautiful. Watch it with roses though. Theyre really expensive.

Not so much in Honduras, though. I can afford it.

 

[beli]

okay. cool. I was just dividing $200 by 100 roses.

A night time picnic is lovely. If you cant cook you could buy a gourmet hamper pack for two. Even better if its at a an orchestral concert, or something similar, soothing type music. ie not Metallica.

Again, Honduras, we don't have concerts everyday and it'd be dangerous to have picnics that late. I'm serious ....if you want to talk about that though let's start another thread. I really want to get some good suggestions for this.

 

[beli]

Sorry. I actually intended that as a good suggestion.

I dont know Honduras at all.

Wooing a girl on Valentine's Day is so ordinary. How about doing something for her on a regular day, a week day, just completely out of the blue? I think that has a lot more mileage than doing something really grand on Valentine's Day when there's so many expectations and all this pressure. If you're a long-term couple, maybe come up with a nice tradition for Valentine's Day like a place to go, movie to watch or something rather than trying to go huge.

I don't know your girl but for me, personally, the little things go a long way.

IMO, you can't go wrong with shiny objects

That doesn't mean you don't have to come up with something for Valentine's. I still do little things every day, if only you knew. I gave her the soundtrack and the DVD for Love Actually which is her favorite movie and some roses one day just because I wanted to.

I like your idea about coming up with a sort of tradition. I'll see what I can do. Thanks for the input.
