Gifts

Best

"A guy gave me a basket of about 10 different kinds of my favourite candy. I'm not big on Valentine's Day but I thought it was sweet and showed he had been paying attention."

Worst:

"A guy I had been dating for just a few weeks gave me a red leather-bound album for 'future memories' of our relationship. We didn't even have any pictures together yet."

Dates

Worst

"One time my boyfriend made dinner for me and I drank too many cocktails. He didn't drink as much and we ended up having a fight."

"I forgot it was Valentine's Day and my boyfriend was working so I went to dinner with my best guy friend. The restaurant brought us all these dishes for two and it was really awkward."
