VALE-TINE GIFT

she says she doesn’t care about
Valentine’s Day? Regardless, don’t
show up empty handed.
Well, well, gentlemen, it’s that time of
year where your choice in gift means
everything. Okay, maybe not
everything. But no matter how much
she claims not to care, you should
not, under any circumstances, go
halfheartedly into Valentine’s Day.
It’s all or nothing, you guys.
First and foremost: Avoid the flowers
and chocolates. You don’t want to be
that guy. You want to display some
individuality. You want to show her
that you really know her. And if you
can do all of that and get her
something you can enjoy and indulge
in too? Well, that would be a
homerun. This day should be about
the two of you—together. So double
your pleasure with these Valentine’s
Day gifts for her…that you’ll love too.
1. Adult toy box. There are so many
perks about being an adult that to
list them all would be exhausting. But
one such extra special perk about
being a grownup is a toy box full of
goodies that provide lots of grownup
fun. From vibrators to edible
lubricants to maybe some handcuffs
and a paddle for a spank or two, an
adult toy box for her means hours
and hours of fun for both of you. Let
your imagination run wild with all the
accessories you can possibly stuff
into one box!
2. Dance class. Two left feet? Don’t
sweat it. If you can let yourself go
enough to be silly, slightly
embarrassed and carefree, both you
and she can truly enjoy a dance class
together. Try something of the Latin
persuasion—like body-grinding Salsa
—and you’ll both be burning up
inside if you’re stumbling to get the
steps right.
3. Cooking class for couples. You love
to eat. She loves to eat. It’s a shared
pleasure! And unless you’re a
professional, everyone can benefit
from some culinary education. Find a
local class that offers lessons for two,
and get your hands dirty together.
Then practice your culinary skills at
home; Preparing meals and eating
them together can be a very sensual
act. Tantalizing her tongue and lips
with deliciousness is practically
foreplay. When it comes time for
dessert, that’s when you can get
really creative—and make it a doubly
happy ending (wink, wink).
4. Fantasy dress-up kit. If you and
your gal are no strangers to lingerie,
then it might be time to take it step
further with a kit of fantasies. What’s
her fantasy? Perhaps you and she
have wanted to play doctor and
nurse, or French maid and big, bad,
demanding boss. I mean, we all have
dreamed up those scenarios at some
point, haven’t we? All this gift takes is
a trip to a costume store to pick up
the essential pieces that will make the
dress-up kit for her a winning gift of
pure er*ticism.
5. A hotel room for the night.
Nothing says romance like getting
away for the night. New surroundings
are a delight on all the senses: the
feel of the 500-thread count sheets,
the sounds of the city below (or the
absence of sound in the woods
outside), and the sight of excitement
in her eyes when she sees that
you’ve done the room up right for
the special day. Go ahead and cover
the bed in rose petals—go full-cliché!
Making love on a bed of roses is so
bucket list-worthy.
6. Sexy ‘Truth or Dare’. An evening of
dirty games, if taken nice and slow, is
a deliriously wonderful way to get you
both in the mood. Without getting
too explicit, because you want to
leave the really dirty stuff for after
the game, brainstorm a series of
truths and dares for you and your
partner to answer and act out.
Between the verbal communication
and the naughty behavior, the
intimacy will be so intense that you’ll
have to do everything in your power
not to explode.
