HC’s Ultimate Guide to Valentine’s Day (no matter your relationship status!)

It’s almost February 14 — and that usually means flowers and candy (if you’re lucky, from your guy). But at Her Campus we realize there is a lot more to Valentine’s Day than flowers and candy, and there are a lot more people to gift than just your man (if you even have one!). Read on for our ultimate guide to V-Day so you can show your love for everyone in your life, whether or not you’re “In a Relationship” on Facebook, from your parents to your BFF to your roomie to, yes, your crush!
Gifts for Parents
For the oh-so-in-love parents

Put a picture of your parents from when they first met or even a picture of you with one of your parents during a happy moment in a vintage-inspired heart frame, like this one from Kohl's $8.99.
For those with a sweet tooth

Isabella’s custom cookies make for a sweet treat to thank your parents for always loving you! Plus they can be mailed directly to your parents so you can order easily from school. $18 for ½ dozen, $32 for a dozen.
For the flowers fan

If dad’s not going to do it, then step up and send Mama some flowers direct to her door or office on V-Day from Teleflora. You’ll score major points for this thoughtfulness! $29.99
For your fab cook of a mom

Your mom will totally “heart” these handmade heart bowls. Each piece is hand-carved in Kenya from previously fallen trees, which means that no two pieces are the same. Your mom will love how unique they are. Plus, like all products from Acacia Creations, these bowls are made under strict fair trade conditions using eco-friendly methods. $16.
For the parents who miss your beautiful face

Personalize your parents a gift from Pinhole express. The company makes everything from custom cards to calendars to photobooks. You can celebrate the love your family feels for one another by making a calendar so you can spread the love all year long. $29.99.

my classmate's step-sister makes $71 every hour on the internet. She has been out of a job for 7 months but last month her paycheck was $8184 just working on the internet for a few hours. Read more on this site ... http://lazycash9.com
1) your guy does not want errands, don't give him a gift that is just you paying for a date for once
2) he does not want an interrogation for valentine's day, so leave "never have I ever' out of it
3) If you get him a tie, you had best be damn sure it's one he would willingly choose to wear. NOTE: not one you think he would look cute in. Your opinion of the tie should have as little to do with it as possible. Professional men's dress does not leave a lot of room for individuality, don't fuck up his one outlet to be a person by guilting him into wearing your shitty tie.
4) candles are actually something a guy might enjoy every now and then but wouldn't buy himself, that being said, don't be pissed if he doesn't light it all the time
5) photo album is very similar to candles, it is sweet, but don't be offended if he only flips through it once every two years or so while it's situated in plain sight, and then only when he is cleaning out the attic after it has been moved.
