With the most romantic day of the year approaching, a lot of guys feel anxiety to put together a memorable Valentine's Day for their significant other. Although some of us may feel that Valentine's Day is an unfair test of sorts, keep one thing in mind; your girlfriend thinks it is very important. Gentlemen, although the pressure is on to make your lady happy this Feb. 14, if you show sincerity with your affections, the day will go much smoother.
So what to do for her you ask? Heart shaped chocolate? Flowers? Both? The best Valentine's Day gifts are the original ones-the gifts that are personalized for her, which will make her see you truly care. Instead of flowers, choose Edible Arrangements. Replace a box of chocolates with Kooki Sushi, chocolate cookies shaped as sushi for a fun alternative. Or, you can avoid the headache of gifting all together simply by devoting the whole day to spending time with her laughing, taking a walk or watching a movie.
The point is, don't overthink Valentine's Day plans or else something is bound to go wrong. Stick with what you know she likes and if you've been good enough to her the other 364 days of the year, then Valentine's Day won't be the struggle you might anticipate it to be. This holiday is all about her, so give her a day she won't forget.
