What Women Really Want - A Guide for Valentine's Day Gift Giving

Author : Elizabeth Smith

Many men struggle every year with the tormenting question of
what to buy their sweetheart for Valentine's Day. In an effort
to simplify this daunting task, and being in the gift giving
industry myself, I thought I'd share some of my expertise and
knowledge with the layman. Although I cannot speak for all
women, I can certainly give some absolutely wonderful advice and
great gift ideas.

First and foremost, I must confess that I am not a relationship
expert. This article is being written from my own profound wants
and desires for the perfect Valentine's Day. Unfortunately for
men, not all women are alike, and therefore, all do not want and
desire the same things. This article will focus on a few great
Valentine's Day ideas that I believe would satisfy the majority
of normal women.

My initial thought regarding Valentine's Day is that it is an
event to be remembered. For this reason, I love the idea of
creating a special day for your loved one. As the mother of two
young children, I would love nothing more than a nice relaxing
day at a luxurious spa. Can't afford to send your loved one on a
spa holiday? Find yourself a gift basket filled with sensational
bath products, enabling you to bring the spa home, at a much
more affordable price. Most women will greatly appreciate the
much needed relaxing time alone.

Another way to make the event memorable is to have a Valentine's
Day picnic. Weather permitting, a picnic can be a tremendously
romantic afternoon. A picnic basket with service for two would
be the place to start. Then add some gourmet treats, specialty
foods, and a chilled bottle of wine. If the weather is
inclement, as it still is in many parts of the country, take the
picnic inside. Spread out a nice picnic blanket, put on some
soft music, light some candles and picnic inside for a charming
dinner meal. Quiet time together is the key for this gift idea.

Not interested in sitting on the floor? Create a gourmet meal
for two and serve it up at the dinner table. I know very few
women who really want to cook a three course meal on Valentine's
Day. Find a great recipe book or try a gourmet gift basket
filled with all the dinner necessities, including the
mood-setting candles. Can't cook? Order out and set it all up
for your loved one as a surprise. Don't forget cleanup duty. Do
it after dinner or even the next day, but don't let her lift a
finger. Believe me, she will love a break from kitchen duties
for a night.

Of course, there's always the classic gift of flowers, candy and
even jewelry. But I've always felt that these are just "things"
and are soon forgotten after the special day. Flowers die, candy
gets eaten, and jewelry gets dusty in a jewelry box. Make
Valentine's Day what it really is...a day to celebrate love with
the love of your life. Make it an event to be remembered by
pampering your loved one. You only get an excuse to do it once
per year.
