Boyfriend Valentine Gift Ideas
St. Valentine’s Day Presents for Guys, BFFs, Boy Friends & Husbands
Here are a bunch of loving ideas for guys for Valentine's Day Gifts.
Gifts for New Boyfriends or “Just Dating”
No girl wants to scare off a new guy by going overboard with a mushy gift, but she wants to show she cares. Some cool-but-casual gift ideas for new dates are:
- A cool mini locker filled with various candy bars
- A CD of his favorite band or something he’s never heard
- An indoor picnic just for two (put a checkered tablecloth on the floor and pack a picnic basket)
- A slightly romantic card with a dash of humor
- A jar full of conversation hearts
- A big giant Valentine mylar balloon
Valentine’s Day Presents for a Boyfriend or Husband
One can be a little more mushy with a longer term boyfriend or husband. Pick a gift to go with his personality, be it sweet and sensitive, fun and corny, or hopelessly romantic.
- The classic giant heart-shaped box of chocolates (skip the ones with lace, though)
- For a boyfriend or husband, gather up a stack of milk chocolate bars, a big bag of marshmallows, and a box of graham crackers, with a couple marshmallow roasting sticks. Make a card to add that says “Every Day I Love You S’More!”
- Cut out 100 hearts of various colors of paper. Stick them up all over his room, office, car, or garage door. Write conversation heart sayings on some of them (like “Be Mine, Luv U, My Guy, and so on.)
- For a sensitive boyfriend, a single red rose will touch his heart (chocolate roses are fun too).
- For a man with a hobby, empty a big heart-shaped chocolate box and fill it with things he’ll love, like DVDs, fishing gear, guitar strings and picks, a journal, computer supplies, art supplies, and more. Add a few chocolates too.
- Fill his wallet with confetti hearts and hide love notes in his pockets, car, books, or cabinets.
St. Valentine’s Day Date Ideas or Events as Gifts
It’s fun to plan a surprise outing or event for someone special, even if that person is just a good friend. Here are some ideas for romantic, fun, and casual dates for Saint Valentine’s Day and evening.
- An old standard; take him out to eat at a favorite restaurant. For Valentine’s, go early to beat the big crowds.
- Splurge and rent a convertible for the night and take a romantic drive. Stop somewhere for something silly, like an ice cream cone.
- Take him out for a big treat like a banana split. Tell him the treat is Sweets for the Sweet.
- Join some other couples for a fun group dinner or movie out, or have friends over to watch a “date night” movie that has humor or action for the boys.
- Plan an old-fashioned homemade candlelight dinner at home.
- If the budget is big, do something crazy like take a hot air balloon ride, helicopter tour, or flight to a city a couple hours away (just for lunch).
- Do something whimsical like going to the zoo, a theme park, or a museum. Pack a romantic sack lunch with heart-shaped sandwiches, strawberry tarts, and Valentine candies
- Go have a romantic portrait taken together.
