7+7=14

First let me start off by saying you shouldn't wait for February 14th to come around to perform a romantic gesture. If you really love someone, you show it all year long. Valentine's Day is cute for children who can exchange V-Day cards with their classmates. Once you become a legal adult, it's a day for suckers. I feel sorry for people who give in to all the corny commercial products like balloons, cards, candy, and the awful teddy bears. Overpriced dinners with prefixed menus and tacky red roses are the worst! So, with all that being said, here are 14 tips to help save you from becoming a certified "V-Day Cornball".

FELLAS:
1. Plan ahead, don't wait until the last minute.
2. Dress up! Throw on a jacket and tie, or suit.
3. Look your BEST (Fresh haircut/shave)
4. Smell your BEST (Shower/Cologne)
5. Be Unique - Instead of buying a card, write a note or letter.
6. When in doubt, always buy jewelry! Something stylish, not tacky!
7. Send flowers a week after V-Day, just because you really are sweet ;)

LADIES:
1. Don't make such a BIG deal out of this day!
2. Dress up! Wear heels and a dress that makes you feel confident and sexy!
3. Look your BEST
4. Smell you BEST
5. Cook up a romantic dinner at home
6. Buy something you would like to see him wear as a gift
7. Step out of your comfort zone for the night ;)

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
