I wasn’t very old. I may have been 21 or 22 when I made my first Valentine’s Day rookie error. How was I to know?
I almost won her heart. I turned up at her door, looking as good as I could and holding a large bunch of roses. I knew roses were the right choice for Valentine’s Day.
The most beautiful smile I’d ever seen crossed her face as she looked down at the flowers I was holding out to her. But then her face changed. I knew something was very wrong….
It all came down to the colour of the flowers I chose. Pink. Passionless pink. There was no Valentine for me that year.
I don’t want you to make the same mistake. Since then I’ve learnt a lot about flowers and even more about how to choose the right Valentine’s Day gift.
These are the top 5 gifts guaranteed to get your Valentine’s heart beating faster.
Flowers are always a winner but make sure they are roses and choose red. Red is the colour of love and passion, and isn’t that what you are trying to show?
Perfume (or cologne for men) is always welcome especially if you can find your Valentine’s favourite scent. Perfume is a very personal choice so if you don’t know what he or she likes, find a different gift!
A romantic night out will be something to remember always. Look for something special like a ride in a horse-drawn carriage to dinner or, if you have the budget, a night away out of town.
Bling! A piece of jewellery is a lovely gift. Pay close attention to your Valentine’s preference – gold of silver? Also, pay attention to their style choices – large and bold pieces or restrained and delicate?
Chocolates are always a winner. Don’t worry about the “diet” because almost everyone allows themselves a day off on Valentine’s Day. But don’t choose anything ordinary. If you can buy the chocolates at a supermarket they aren’t good enough. Choose high quality, handmade and delicious chocolate to give to your Valentine, and show how special he or she is to you.
If you really want to make this Valentine’s Day unforgettable, get your sweet tongue talking with these romantic and delicious chocolate gifts.
