I thought this website was really great for pretty crazy gift ideas. It's based on giving experiences rather than stuff. So cool!!
You've got some great ideas, you shouldn't have trouble figuring something out!

I've always treated Valentine's Day as a special day for both the guy and the girl. Guys like special treatment too! If we don't go out, I fix his favorite things, a little soft music, candlelight, maybe some balloons, and a small gift. Oh..and guys DO like chocolate! At least mine does. Just be creative..obviously the poor guy feels slighted. Some men really don't care, but I think they might like being surprised. My guy ALWAYS gets something more than a card. And in return, I am always treated very well.

It's not a one sided thing! It's for couples! Couples who love eachother and want to express their love on this special day.
Four years, and this never came up before? Just look at the Valentines Cards in stores....."To my wonderful husband"..."To the man I love"..."To the one who changed my life"....you get the picture now, don't you?
Gifts don't have to be extravagant...just meaningful and from the heart!
Men love to be made to feel special just as much as we do!

Heck yes it's a day for couples to be romantic for each other, both ways. The boyfriend usually picks his girl up, pays for fancy dinner, brings flowers or chocolate, etc. But the girlfriend is expected to be romantic too and not just by dressing up and kissig a lot. My ex used to spend as much as I did. I still have several of her VDay gifts.
interesting fact: in Japan, Valentines is exclusively a day for girls to give gifts to guys. There's an entiirely separate day when the guys return the favor.

I am an advocate of the, Valentines day is treating your girl, school of thought. But, guys need treats too. It is much too hard to relax and enjoy your treat if you are worried about treating him. So, some have proposed that we have a day in march (usually the 14th)for treating the guy in your life. We guys are pretty simple in our needs. So in order to keep it simple for you ladies they decided to call the day, "Steak and a Blow Job Day". Simple, definitive, and pretty much guaranteed to make you man happy.
Just tell your boyfriend that you were unaware of this and you are planning to make it up to him this year. Depending, of course, on his performance on V Day. Honestly my wife and I started separating the holidays just a few years ago and it is easier for everyone. We are a little nontraditional on our romantic desires. A big steak puts me to sleep. But I treat her with what she likes on her day and she treats me on mine. It is nice for him to know in advance that you have something planned for him.

yeah men love it as valentines day is a day for you both to feel special and enjoy a lovely day together. I think most men would just be happy with a card for the day as they dont want all the stuff that we want really. But then again it depends on the man.. i have never met him so e may like nothing better then a box of choclates :)
Seriously though if you feel that bad why dont you do something to make up for it and come up with ideas i read today in a magazine that men like sharing valentines day together as a coupleso make sure that everything that you do on that day is together and that he is included to feel special and make sure that he knows that you love him. :)
hope this helps x
