What should I get my GF for Valentines Day?

Yeah she's only 18 so I want to make a good impression on like a really traditional level of hitting all the basics. Who knows if she got flowers and chocolates before so I want to make it a special Valentines Day she can remember.

I love her.

Only 18?? Give her parents a present and leave her alone for another couple of years.

Anyone know some good affordable bonus trinkets from Amazon?

So far my plan is to buy like 8 different stuffed animals, some chocolate, flowers, and balloons.

KEY ELEMENT: its gotta look cluttered almost over the top. My goal is to spend less than 80$ but to make it visually feel like I spent hundreds and I want to come to her door just overloaded with gifts to an almost comical degree.

I think one annoyingly jumbo sized big bear, 2 medium stuffed bears or animals, this random stuffed frog I have with a bored grin on its face, a horse with sunglasses, heart shaped box of chocolates, at least 3 floating heart balloons, a cliche dozen roses, maybe some sort of basket too.

Again, the point is for it too look suuuuper cluttered when she first sees me.

Then we will have dinner at some unique fancy greek restaurant with live music and belly dancing and all that.

Anyone have any more good ideas for something V-Day related that takes up a lot of space but is affordable?

Brah, just give her a black and white photo of you doing a statue of David pose.

Good job dating a woman who's in her prime. Most women go downhill fast after they turn 21. Between the mixed drinks and spending 4 years at college riding the c**k carousel, most 21 year old look like they are pushing 41.

Allegorically the humor is similar to that one time when I went on a double date to the movies with a girl and after we parked I was like "ill catch up with you guys in a sec" and I put on like 15 sprays of cologne and then we went to the movies and supposedly I was like the affable dopey overly trying to impress her but failing in a cute way kind of guy for a moment.

Its kind of the same with this where I supposedly fail, but in a cute way with all those excess cliche gifts. But in the end its just supposed to come off as flattering.

I totally get the idea!! If she has any sense of humour which she must if you love her, she'll think its funny - I think its adorable. Its the perfect over the top geek way. Love it!! Who cares if she throws the bears out its only 80 dollars to make a fun gesture. But I would make her sleep with them at least once lined up on her bed haha- pretend you're hurt if she doesn't- Have fun - LOL

Exactly, its like you spent 80 dollars on that joke. Its kind of like how girls always say they want thoughtful gifts.

Its ironic because its a dual layer joke. One one hand its cliche, on the other it was clearly a sign of caring and a well thought out thing exclusively for the love of one person. Its quite romantic don't you think?

You should get her a gift she would actually enjoy instead of wasting $80 on stupid stuffed animals. Getting her one stuffed animal and some balloons chocolates flowers etc is a good thing but get her something she would enjoy or has been wanting, you don't have to spend a fortune but at least get her something she would want like a movie or an iTunes gift card or a necklace/errings from forever 21 or if you have an H&M or even a Ross or Marshalls or TJ Max you could find her some cute accessories!

Thats the other thing about it is she is kinda shy about it being fancy. She initially just wanted to get some vegetarian food from whole foods lol.

(think; typical person who starts detox threads; omg lol)

so its like the very idea of it being formal is a "thing" so this makes it even more funny to make a big show about it despite how she keeps wanting to make it some nonchalant thing.

she's just shy lol

i never understood why guys give stuffed animals for V-day unless they're dating a 14 year old.

i agree with leading muscle, buying candy and flowers is pretty uninspired. for the same amount of money, why not take her to a comedy show, or take a dancing class and later go dancing, or a cooking class and cook a fab dinner for her?
