The trick to a special Valentine's Day gift is to find something sentimental and personal. Yes, you can go with the old standbys-- flowers, chocolates, jewelry, lingerie-- and you'll probably have a happy Valentine. But if you want to get her a special Valentine she won't forget, you'll want to show you know who she is and that you've put some thought into finding something that pleases her. It's a stereotype to say that all young women are sentimental, but it's definitely true of many of them, and it's also true that women have been acculturated to have high expectations for Valentine's Day and will be disappointed if you don't put a little effort into being romantic. Is this ridiculous and nothing but money in the bank for Hallmark? Of course. But there you have it. |
