fitzy30 Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I know this girl only a month and we only started a relationship last weekend as Valentines is coming up what would be the best thing to get her as its a new relationship? im confused as i dont want to come off a bit strong and go all out and get flowers or book a meal etc... any opinions would be appreciated. she said to me yesterday she isnt into valentines and she doesnt care about that day..but i think she would appreciate something.
soulm8 Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I've been wondering the same thing as I'm in a very similar situation. I'm pretty sure I won't even be seeing him on Vday, so I was thinking of sending an e-card along the lines of "just thinking of you"...
Rulebreaker Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Rules say, Girls don't do anything in this situation. If you simply must do something, make it very small, token gesture. Guys can do whatever they want but it probably shouldn't be extreme. Cook her dinner, take her out to dinner and a movie?
mortensorchid Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Dinner and a movie is always a good thing, but to add to the experience, give her a simple greeting card. Nothing to jokey or romantic or mushy, just a friendly type of card. It's the thought that counts.
St. Nick Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Don't give her anything. You aren't married to her, nor are you doing anything serious like considering her a soulmate, so why give her any gifts? The last time a woman asked me for a Valentine I said I don't believe in crass corporate commercialism for phony, made-up holidays and I ended up saving my cash.
Kristine Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 What's so wrong with giving her flowers, chocolates, or anything normal? The guy I'm seeing has brought me flowers and chocolates numerous times. He even brought me a stuffed bear last weekend. That's one of the things I like about him.

BG1985 Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Just buy some Godiva chocolates. Y'all can share.
lab_brat Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Stuffed bears freak me out. But if you want to get her something, why not? Nothing big or expensive, i'd go flowers (not roses) or chocolate.
USMCHokie Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Take her out for the night and get her a simple V-Day card...maybe write a little extra in it...doesn't have to be anything too fancy, especially this early in the relationship... It doesn't necessarily have to dinner and a movie either...something creative and memorable...everyone does dinner on V-Day...doing something different will certainly give a more lasting and memorable impression...
Cora Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I think just a card would be nice or going out to dinner or something. I don't think that would be coming on too strong at all and she would probably appreciate it.
Author fitzy30 Posted February 9, 2010 Author Posted February 9, 2010 she did joke the other day and said ill be expecting a big bunch of white roses and she laughed it off and said she was only messing..shold i stick with that and just a note with it and maybe take her out for lunch on that day.
counterman Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Nothing too extravagant. Keep it simple - just take her out, maybe a Valentine's Day card and maybe a small memento (if you can't think of something, then forget about the little memento).
gorgeous1 Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Id buy her a valentines card, but nothing to slushy and loved up, something funny. All women love flowers and chocolate. As its a new relationship you dont want to come on too heavy with the romantic stuff and scare her off. Hope she gets you something nice too! x
