Valentines day is coming up and it's always a day of controversy. Some people love this day and some people think it's basically crap. Either way, if you're lucky enough to have a special someone on valentines day, receiving a present never hurts. Every year, guys go to the grocery store and pick up chocolates, flowers, and maybe a teddy bear to give to their valentines. As much as I love the human-sized teddy bears, I think its time we put these cliche gifts to rest. There are so many other ways to make your significant other happy on this day of love. Here are 8 things that girls really want for valentines day.
1. Food.
Take her out to eat or order in some pizza.
2. Compliments.
Being open and kind goes a long way. Also, some women don't like to make a big deal about Valentine's Day so this is a thoughtful way to show her you care without a huge romantic gesture.
3. Do some chores around the house.
Women should not be the only ones cooking and cleaning; helping her out will make her day.
4. A simple back massage.
Women work hard everyday so it's great when they get to relax and take a break.
5. Cook a nice meal.
Let me say this again, GIRLS LOVE FOOD! They love it when a guy can cook, it's a very appealing quality.
6.Make them laugh.
Valentine's presents don't have to be tangible and they don't have to be huge. Simply make a woman smile or laugh; laughter is something you can't buy.
7. Used Clothing
This one may seem odd, but girls love to wear their significant other's sweatshirts, or just their clothing in general. You can pass some of your old hoodies down to her with your cologne on them so she'll always think of you.
8. Just express your love.
Valentines day shouldn't be about the flowers or chocolates, it should be about you and your significant other and the bond that you share.
