Then spending another two weeks talking about said failure with your friends. It&#8217;s exhausting and its not what should be occupying your time.<\/p>\n<p>This year, instead of you and your partner both exerting your energy worrying about getting each other the \u201cperfect gift,\u201d why not focus on gifts you can share together? It takes the stress off of your shoulders and brings the focus back to what this holiday is really about: spending time with the one you luuuurve.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sexy Lingerie.<\/strong> While possibly a little bit clich\u00e9, this gift will <em>always<\/em> work (especially when you bust it out again in March, April&#8230;you get the point).\u00a0 <em>You<\/em> get to look really hot in some expensive Victoria\u2019s Secret get-up and <em>he<\/em> gets to get hot when he sees you. Then you both get to enjoy what happens next. And again in the morning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weekend Getaway. <\/strong>If you\u2019ve been dating for a long time and you want to do something ultra romantic, plan a weekend trip to a bed-and breakfast.\u00a0 Spend the days wandering in and out of shops in the cozy little town and the nights snuggling in your quaint little room. If that&#8217;s too much to plan, booking a nice hotel in your college town for the night is a cheaper and easier alternative. It may not seem like much, but it&#8217;s amazing what a clean room without roommates can do.<span id=\"more-52605\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Concert Tickets.<\/strong> If candy and chocolate is not your thing, check out who\u2019s playing around town and split a pair of tickets with your man.\u00a0 If that sounds too pricey, you can also always look up an open mic night or a caf\u00e9 concert for something different, intimate and special.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Date Day.<\/strong> Instead of doing gifts, plan an over-the-top date! Get breakfast together, come home and watch a movie, feed each other chocolate, cook a meal together, spend the night together\u2026anything that keeps the two of you together for the entire day.\u00a0 Valentine\u2019s Day is a great day to just be with the person you love (cheesy, but true) and just clearing your schedule for the other person can sometimes be enough.\u00a0 So enjoy!<\/p>\n<p>  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gocomments\/collegecandy.wordpress.com\/52605\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/comments\/collegecandy.wordpress.com\/52605\/\" \/><\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/godelicious\/collegecandy.wordpress.com\/52605\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/delicious\/collegecandy.wordpress.com\/52605\/\" \/><\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gostumble\/collegecandy.wordpress.com\/52605\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/stumble\/collegecandy.wordpress.com\/52605\/\" \/><\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/godigg\/collegecandy.wordpress.com\/52605\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/digg\/collegecandy.wordpress.com\/52605\/\" \/><\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/goreddit\/collegecandy.wordpress.com\/52605\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/reddit\/collegecandy.wordpress.com\/52605\/\" \/><\/a> <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/stats.wordpress.com\/b.gif?host=collegecandy.com&#038;blog=860993&#038;post=52605&#038;subd=collegecandy&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is Valentine\u2019s Day really about?
