ALT-1 Valentines Day Errors of Judgment
Valentine's Day can cause a rift in many relationships because of the poor selection of gifts or no selection at all. This holiday is crucial because it's one of the few that has a set theme of romance and sex. As a result, what you give to your Valentine's says a lot about how you feel about him or her. So here's a little help...
Below are the top 7 things you SHOULDN'T give on Valentine's Day if you want to spend the rest of the year snuggled up to your loved one.
Socks.
Although they keep your feet warm, they do nothing for the heart. If you give them out on Valentine's Day, be ready to spend it in the dog house.
Blenders.
Your wife may love to cook, but on Valentine's Day, she doesn't want to be reminded of it. Give her a gift that makes her feel like a woman and not a maid.
Ties.
Giving a man a tie for Valentine's Day is just like saying "I didn't feel like putting much effort into getting you a gift." Remember that your honey is human too. Think about buying him a gift that will make him feel sexy and desired by you. It'll be the quickest way to light a fire in your bedroom.
Money.
Even if your lover enjoys money, giving it as a gift on Valentine's Day is very unromantic. It says that you're lazy and don't even want to take the time to buy a gift. So, keep your cash and go shopping for a gift your lover will enjoy. It'll show that you think they're worth extra effort and time.
Gag gifts.
Because Valentine's Day is all about expressing love, it's not the best time to give a gag gift unless it's followed by something really wonderful. Leave the joking for more appropriate holidays like April's Fools Day.
Vacuum Cleaners.
If you buy your spouse a vacuum cleaner for Valentine's Day, it's another way of saying "the fire's gone." Not only will it hurt their feelings, it'll hurt your relationship. So opt for something more romantic.
Magazines.
Even if the magazine is Victoria's Secret, it's not as good as the real thing. So, leave the magazines on the shelves and browse the covers to find a perfect Valentine's Day gift.
In conclusion, certain gifts just aren't for Valentine's Day. Therefore, select one that fits the day. It should be romantic, sexy or loving.
