Thing is, valentines day is coming up, and by then we'll have been on a few more dates and may even be boyfriend/girlfriend. But because the relationship is so new, i don't know whether or not to get him anything, and if i do, what should i get him? :S Reply to this Question Share |

I would say no, dont buy him anything. Valentines day is actually supposed to be for single people anyway, so the whole culture of couples taking over Valentines day is very wrong! If he asks why you dont want to celebrate it - you could always explain that you dont believe in celebrating it as a couple because it has nothing to do with couples!
But in all seriousness, you are not even boyfriend/girlfriend yet so dont get him anything - it is too soon and Valentines Day is not special enough to warrant you spending money this early on. If you are boyfriend/girlfriend by the 14th, then you could always get him something cute or silly, or make him a little card or something like that.
I hope this helps and good luck!
