Surely many people are preparing for Valentine’s day and do not know that they could give to friends and partner at this date so special.

However, according to the opinion of some people, there are gifts that are not recommended to give February 14 as they are sweeter, ostentatious or impractical. is a fact that the intention is what counts when it comes to giving gifts of Valentine’s day, but it is also a fact that it is important to be original and is considered the person which is thought to give a gift Valentine instead of nothing but buy something ‘ to follow current ’.

Here is a list of 10 of the worst gifts you can give on 14 February (day of love and friendship).

  • Plush Dolls. Hearts and stuffed animals are not the most romantic option for gifts on Valentine, since that most people consider they are children and impractical (especially in adult couples).
  • Appliances. Another of the options less romantic gift; one of things seeking Valentine is promote romanticism and is why I give cooking articles or cleaning the riskiest options; these things can be purchased in any normal day.
  • Heart-shaped cushions. In addition to not be practical nor that fit with the majority of the decorations, is a highly viewed and therefore gift, little special and original.
  • Unexpected marriage proposals. This applies mainly with couples who have little time in their relationship; propose marriage to a person is a serious matter that should have been discussed with time and not something to be taken lightly (much less if that person has not shown interest in a commitment well).
  • Greeting cards. They can be a nice supplementary detail for one greater gift, especially if they have a message written by the fist letter and of the person, but if this is the only gift that will be, is quite weak.
  • Cheap jewelry. Jewelry is one of the most popular on Valentine’s options, but if you plan to give them, consider it a piece of quality; St. Valentine allegorical accessories usually tend to be cheap manufacturing and it is difficult to use them in another time of the year.
  • Regular plans. No need to spend lot of money to make romantic plans beyond routine in a relationship, but what if it is in bad taste is making plans that can be made for any occasion (especially if it is considered that there will be anything special in them).
  • Gifts homemade. Considering that most people are not experts in crafts, it is not recommended to make gifts that probably nothing more be accepted by courtesy and do not have a useful use; However, make collages or give videos/albums of photos about the history of the relationship is a good complement to remember the time we have together.
  • Gift cards. Unless they are exchangeable or unexpected things, discount cards also show a lack of originality and disinterest in celebrating Valentine’s day with something special and that is unique to the person in question.
  • Anything with Cupid or hearts. Tasteless, it is only funny during this season and predictable; I believe that this has already been quite clear.

However, despite this list of possible bad gifts collected by the Economist, remember that there is not a specific date where it can be shown the love and affection to someone special with carefully planned and unexpected details.
