Daynah- seems you're not having much luck in the 'ideas' department from the members here 😃
How about these?
(Of course it would certainly depend on your location and the weather, personal preferences, and where in your relationship you are, naturally 😉 )
- candlelight dinner cooked by you
- tickets to a sporting or music event he would enjoy
- dinner and tickets to a comedy club (fun, unique "date night" kind of thing)
- if you're someplace warm you could rent bikes and go for a picnic in a secluded area
- if you're far into your relationship, you could suggest dinner where you had your first date.
- if you're crafty or artistic you can make him something like a picture frame or pot for a plant or something like that.
- cookies or candy made by you
- if you want to be really romantic, you could suggest a weekend or overnight getaway to someplace within driving distance
- you could get him something less romantic, but that he would think was cool- ebay has some great unique ideas! or if he's into programming, you could try www.computergear.com, www.thinkgeek.com or our very own website <insert shameless plug here LOL> www.giftsforengineers.com (go to computer engineers) We have fun nerdy stuff on our site, like motherboard keychains and t-shirts, etc.
Also, I think if you do something special that you wouldn't normally do, then it will certainly mean a lot to him. Even if it's not romantic particularly - just something that shows you care. Example: my husband is big into his motorcycle and we used to ride together all the time. But since we had our child, I really don't like riding that thing- it makes me way nervous. But for a special occasion such as Valentine's Day, I might suggest we take a ride somewhere (weather permitting- it's still pretty darn cold here) because I know how much he enjoys it. Not too romantic, but it means a lot to him therefore it means a lot to me.
HTH! 😃
I'm sure you'll have a great day no matter what you decide to do!
