No girl wants to receive a gift that was picked at the last minute. Whether it’s an expensive or inexpensive gift, what matters is the thought that went into it. Bad gift giving symbolizes a lack of effort and can, ultimately, lead to breaking up or divorce.
One of the most common gifts given on Valentine’s Day is flowers. Girls like flowers because they make them feel valued and loved. In Mexican culture, there are specific days to give yellow flowers on March 21st and September 21st. Receiving these yellow flowers signifies a deep desire for lifelong partnership. Flowers can mean a lot to a girl, and there are a variety of choices. You can give real flowers or eternal flowers. Eternal flowers are made from ribbon; there are many small businesses, even students at Speer, that sell them, such as @floresbyitzel on Instagram.
Jewelry is also often gifted for Valentine’s Day. This is a more expensive gift that, if done right, can make a girl ecstatic. In The Summer I Turned Pretty, Belly, Isabel Conklin, is mostly seen with silver jewelry. When she is with Conrad, he buys her silver jewelry, more specifically, a silver infinity necklace. Although when she is with Jeremiah, Belly is gifted a gold necklace by Jeremiah. Belly is, ultimately, a silver girl; after she ends it with Jeremiah, she is seen with silver jewelry. Fans of TSITP believe that Belly switching back to silver means that she is returning to who she is instead of what Jeremiah wanted her to be. Buying a girl jewelry can be very thoughtful, but you need to know what kind of jewelry she likes. For example, what style of rings, whether she likes gold or silver.
A tip on Valentine’s Day is to listen to your girlfriend. If she sends you things she likes, save them; if she mentions wanting something, remember it, and if she reposts something on TikTok, save it. A gift proves your understanding of the person you are with to a deeper level. Another idea is buying experiences such as vacations, museums, and restaurant dates.
