Red Roses 

Nothing says "I Love You" like a bouquet of fresh roses. Don't limit yourself to just roses though--incorporating their favorite flowers into the mix is especially thoughtful. A heart-shaped vase  will make the gift more special.

Chocolates 

Whether they enjoy sweet caramels or savory truffles, they're sure to appreciate a box of gourmet goodies. If they're really adventurous, try a bacon chocolate toffee . Or try a gift basket , including some cheese and wine for more demanding palates.

Jewelry Set 

Be sure to know what your significant other likes before buying any jewelry. If she's a ring person, don't get her a pair of chandelier earrings . And if he's never worn a pair of cuff links  before, maybe you'd be better off getting him a pocket watch .

The Cook

If your mate's idea of a great night is attempting a recipe from the new Ina Garten cookbook , why not give them a new set of saucing  pans, or a great paella  pan? Throw in a bottle of white truffle oil  or aged balsamic vinegar  and you'll be their hero. 

The Fitness Enthusiast

Some are happiest when working up a sweat. But how to give them a gift without being insulting? After all, weight loss is a touchy subject. Try a heart rate monitor  or digital pedometer . And how about some bamboo cotton towels  for that post-workout shower? 

The Traveler

People plan their vacations around their work schedule, and sometimes that means that special trip is a long way off. A stylish travel wallet  (plane ticket optional!) or a digital pocket language translator  are great gifts to tide them over until it's time for take off.

The Fixer-Upper

Thanks to cabel television, a swath of society has learned to love a bit of DIY. Nothing makes them happier than dragging out a set of tools  and fixing a leaky drain or sanding  down an old table, so help them out with a new power drill  or a digital measuring tape . 

The Gamer

Feel like you are being suffocated? Buy them an addictive video game and you will start being ignored in no time. PC games like Warcraft  and Battlefield  can engross your lover for hours. Console systems like the PlayStation 3 ,Xbox 360 , and especially the Wii , can bring you two together with fun multiplayer games. The Xbox Kinect  add-on or Wii Fit  can actually give your partner a workout if they are getting a little soft around the middle.

The Romantic

So what is a "romantic gift" exactly? They generally involve expressing your affections directly. Reasons I love you stones  are thoughtful; try making your own out of paper, with your own reasons. An engraved message band  is a gesture that lasts forever. Or your gift can require that  the two of you spend time together. The I Dare You game  is a fun way to share some intimate time. You can also spend a romantic day together on a romantic picnic.

The Outdoorsman or Woman

What's more romantic than a weekend living in a tent, making a fire, and hunting your own food in full camo gear? Lots of things, really. Maybe that isn't your cup of tea, but if your significant other loves the great outdoors, try giving them a multipurpose tool , a state of the art tent , or a survival kit . Those with a larger budget can arrange for a camping trip later in the year, when the weather is more survivable.

The Sports Fan

Whether your fan is an avid player or a couch potato coach, he/she will appreciate a gift that shows you understand and support their obsession, at least for Valentine's Day. Baseball fans would love a new team t-shirt  or baseball cap  before the pre-season starts. Football fans love authentic team jerseys  they can wear to the stadium, while basketball fans appreciate signed basketball cards . 

Gifts for Women

That special woman will want something that shows you have been listening. Find your sweetheart a gift.
