Valentines Day

Ok so im planning on getting this girl i like, a Teddy bare...and three red roses..for each year i have known her, is there anything else i should get her, or do you have any suggestions...please help

I think that's enough... but just buying stuff is usually emotionless, I suggest you write her a short poem or something in a card to show her your true feelings towards her.

^^as do I :)

The bear and the roses are a nice gesture; but it is materialistic. Eventually the roses will die, but she could hold on to your words forever.

I definitely encourage others to make their Valentine's gifts or do something for Valentine's Day.

I've written letters, made love coupons, fixed dinner, etc. My partner has written me a poem, took me out to dinner, taken me to the movies, etc. Last year I was in a theatrical production in which we volunteered to perform for The Prairie Women on Snowmobiles; a group snowmobiling across the country to raise money for breast cancer research and more. With all the tickets we sold for the event, including the one I bought for my partner, we donated them to the cause as charity.

^ What if they planted and grew the roses themselves? My grandma always planted and grew roses for Valentine's for all her grandchildren. Each grandchild had one Rose bush; I had a pink Queen Elizabeth rose bush and it grew every year for 11 years until we forgot to cover it one year and it froze. Even though my rose bush died, that doesn't mean that I don't remember the small gesture that had come with it.

Over three years ago my school was selling Carnations for Valentine's Day. However, during lunch, my partner went home and took a single white rose from his mother's rose bush for me. He brought it back to the school, kissed me and said he hoped I had a happy Valentine's for the rest of the day. Nobody could contain their awe. And last year my partner bought me four roses, one for every year we've been together, in four different colors, for different reasons. I took all four roses and hung them in my closet to dry out well over two weeks. During the past year they've lost a few leaves and petals here and there, but today, those roses are still as beautiful and vibrant as ever if not more. They even still have a scent just as intoxicating. I will never be able to forget the gestures behind the roses, even if they are no longer in my possession.

Wow thank you very much for this, those ideas have crossed my mind, but its too late to grow them, even with the invisible force of love behind me, i am not with this girl in a relationship, but i have loved her all three years the same, i have told her my feelings three weeks ago, and told her valentines day will be our day, i will write her a poem, well all of my peoms are about her (to an extent) and in the end, i just wanna show her how much she means to me, i am 17 and have had girlfriends, ive lived with one girl, etc etc, but something about this girl i wont let go of, she means more to me than that of any girl ive ever met, except my mother (i do love my mother) and ive never done anything for a girl on Christmas or valentines day, but this past Christmas i bought her 60$ worth of stuff and made her something too, so this holiday i want to be special.....so thank you and if there is any more suggestions i am open

ps i didnt get her Chocolates becuase every girl is getting that, i want hers to be different, if i could play the guitar well enough i would sing her a song, i can sing very good and have even written her a song (im too shy to tell her this) but i just want her to know how important she is to me

"...have even written her a song (im too shy to tell her this)"

^ Now there's an idea! Why not make telling her, showing her and even singing (if you don't mind singing without the aid of instruments) to her part of her Valentine's? Do you have friends who play the guitar or could you even find acoustics online that go well with your lyrics to play in the background?

Haha theres something upseting about that...you underestimate how shy i really am!!! i am my worste critic, and if i sang bad i couldnt live with myself lol.....shes never had a boyfriend not even a fist kiss (shes 16 shocking huh) and i dont wanna scare her away by pressuring her....i just wanna show her i care about her alot ^^

Thanks everyone who helped

Like Elizabeth said, you don't have to sing it if you feel like you can't. Just show it to her, let her read the lyrics. I'd melt if my partner wrote me a song, even if he just showed it to me.
