Today is Valentine’s Day, and knowing what to get your significant other can be very difficult. The pressure of getting the right thing can be hard for many different people. Valentine’s Day is known to be the best but also the worst time for people.
Whether it goes to buying or receiving gifts it can be hard to determine what is the best gift to get. During this time, it’s very popular to make a Valentine’s Day basket. This can include flowers, different types of candy, a stuffed animal, candles, and the hard-to-get Stanley Cups.
Things that also may be included are sentimental gifts like handwritten notes, necklaces, charm bracelets, or boxes full of notes and date memorabilia. A handwritten note can be anything from recalling a first time meeting or asking how things are going. Many love jewelry, and this can be a popular thing to get a significant other.
Junior Maddie Yaich said, “I prefer to give chocolates and something simple like a stuffed animal like a bear. These are easy to give because everyone likes it, and it’s not something hard to pick out. I normally like to keep my gifts simple and not get complicated with what I’m giving.”
The most common candy-related item to get is a box shaped like a heart with chocolate in it. This can have the common “Be Mine” and “Happy Valentine’s Day” sayings on the front. A common thing to do with a significant other is to take them out on a romantic date.
One thing to do is to plan a date full of adventure and romance. This can be from giving gifts to going out on a romantic dinner for two. Another good thing to do is to plan an activity to do like bowling, going to Top Golf, going to Dave & Buster’s, or going to see a movie. Planning the perfect date can be simple or adventurous, depending on the type of date.
Simple things can mean a lot to a significant other, so when putting thought into the gift, make it personal to them. This can be anything as long as there is thought to the gift.
Valentine’s Day can be a perfect day to show the love that you have for the person and also make the perfect memories with them.
