Its that dreaded time of the year again...jk
But really, this is going to be my first Valentines Day together with my girlfriend. I dont want to set the bar too high and i dont want to spend a fortune. Im looking for ideas to do in Vancouver and just ideas in general. Input from the ladies is much appreciated.
If it helps, she's into photography, not into working out and shes asian lol :fback
Hello Kitty fanny pack?
u cook dinner. movie and sex
Agree. Maybe but her some sexy lingerie and give it to her as a gift after dinner.Quote:

Flowers are a waste of money imo. She will be so wet that you produce a nice meal that they are not needed.Quote:

couple of key questions
1) how long have you been together???
2) what is the $$$ limit??
My co-workers and me came up with these ideas:
0-4months of dating- a nice home cooked meal with a nice card( not mushy mushy card) with or without a nice box of chocolates.
4-7months- in this case she likes photos, maybe a nice night out to a gallery, with a nice meal out, somewhat mushy card
7months-1yr- A nice new camara, really mushy card, home cooked meal with candles, flowers, maybe with a nice bubble bath waiting,
one thing that i believe any woman would love is a romantic bubble bath, with a couple roses, candles, and rose pedals on the bed(fake ones are cheaper)
nacklaces i find are over played at this time of year

Good luck to all!
Take it from a married guy, flowers are never a waste of money. You will get your money worth every time.Quote:

My wife is not into fresh flowers. I know she may be an exception. I have been thinking about taking my wife dog-sledding. We are both dog lovers and this is her first winter in Canada. I thought it would be a unique experience for her.
hmmm, all pretty good ideas thus far. We've only been in the relationship together for 4 months. the home cook dinner thing is a great idea except that she always comes over here and seeing as i watch what i eat ive cooked her dinner before , so it wouldnt be a nice suprise.
^^^Does she have a favorite restaurant? You can pickup from there.
You can also cook together.....Food can be very sensual. See if you can get through making dinner before you she drags you off to the bedroom
You can cook in a Valentines apron....and nothing else.
Use your imagination. If she is worth having around she will recognize the effort over the results.
I like the idea of picking up her favorite food. That would be a good one, and to keep things playful you could get one of those chocolate fondue sets and get some fresh fruit for desert.
Take her out for dinner.
Bring her home to flower petals on the bed/champagne/chocolate dipped strawberries.
My suggestion: being only 4 months (I say only with caution because some "fall" quicker than others)
Dress nicely, pick her up and go to a nice restaurant (there otta be plenty in Vancouver). Have a few drinks perhaps throughout the meal (please, avoid beer!) and suggest that you have dessert awaiting at home. At home, you should have a fondue prepared and ready to go; chocolate that is. Strawberries, cherries, pineapple, grapes and bananas (<-these are awesome) all work wonderfully as dippers. Have some champagne or if desired some sauternes or cremanté (sweet wines) on hand to enjoy with it. Two roses, broken up will produce a lot of peddles and generally the flower shops are willing to give you them from roses that are just starting to wither. Spread them on the end of the bed (easily wiped off eliminating chance of stain) but in the middle have 4 long stem roses, tied in ribbon of her favorite color (one for each month you've been together). Have a few candles, preferably those with small wick (thus a small flame= nice dim light). Make love, sleep. Prepare her a nice breakfast in the morning to seal the deal. Something quick and easy is Belgian waffles, strawberries, whipped cream and chocolate sauce (Sobey's for the win). With nice cup of coffee and juice and you're all set. Quite simple, very effective and price conservative. Enjoy :)[/QUOTE]

lol, we're actually 'fighting' right now so i feel like getting her nothing. the suppressants look like a good idea at the moment
Along with the diet pills, I suggest giving her:
Cellulite firming cream
Teeth whitening strips
:roflQuote:
