She will appreciate the fact that you remember conversations that the two of you have had.Keep in mind that the way you present flowers can be a unique romantic gesture as well.Flowers that are sent to her work, waiting for her when she comes home or strewn about throughout the house can add mystery, intrigue and a spark of romance.Candy -Shockingly, some women do not like chocolate (few and far between).However, if your girl happens to be one of the few presenting her with a box of chocolate that you end up eating is hardly a Valentine's gift.Whether she likes sweet & sours, licorice or bubble gum, think of a great way to present her with something she might not consider as a unique gift.For example, count out gummy bears for every day you have been together (if you remember) and present them in a decorative container.Or add a note to the wrappers of her favorite candies and hide them for her to find throughout the day.As simple and juvenile as these small thoughts may seem it is important to recognize that not all women are after gifts that are going to leave you with an empty wallet.Valentine's Day is intended for romance and love, neither of which should cost money.As long as your gift is unique, thoughtful and genuinely something she can appreciate your Valentine's Day will go better than you could imagine!
