Struggling with what to buy your man this Valentine’s Day? Have no fear! Here’s a list of some great V-Day gifts for every type of guy!

1)   The Athlete: Game day tickets or merch from his favorite team are always good go-to gifts for the sports lover in your life.

2)   The Music Lover: The classic mixtape. Make a mix of some of your favorite songs that mean a lot to you, some of his favorite songs, and some songs that you guys love to listen to together! This variety will mean a lot coming from you, and it will give you two something to jam to the next time you go on a road trip!

3)   The Scholar: Give your bookworm a book you know he’ll love. Whether it’s because you know he’s into sci-fi or you just find a book that reminds you of him, this will be a meaningful gift that he’ll really love.

4)   The Foodie: You could really do two things here. You could plan out a day where the two of you try out a new restaurant (or a day of restaurant hopping), or you could experiment in the kitchen yourself, and make him a home-cooked meal. And hey, while you’re in there, get him in on the action and cook dinner together!

5)   The Movie Buff: For your movie lover, making your own movie night kit is a great way to plan out a movie night. Fill a basket with his favorite movie, candy, and a bag or two of popcorn that you two can make. You can print out (or make) a card that looks like a movie ticket, and get ready to snuggle up for a movie night in with your favorite guy.

Whether you’re buying a gift or making it yourself, the most important thing is that it comes from the heart on this day of love. Happy Valentine’s Day collegiettes!
