What Guys Really Want For Valentine's Day

If you're anything like me, I typically spend weeks (even months) trying to find the perfect gift for my boyfriend. I scout gift guides online trying to find a unique and special something that shows him how much I care - but in reality, is Nordstrom really going to know what gift will make my boyfriend smile?

Rather than trusting stores to lock down the perfect gift, I searched the GirlsAskGuys.com community for a little insight into the male brain. What I found from users was quite surprising, and a little refreshing. Rather than the typical material items I expected, GAG guys preferred a more DIY approach - Check out the top three gifts guys really want for Valentines:

1. Blow Jobs

Are we really surprised by this one?

2. A Handmade Card & Framed Picture

This request deserves an “aw” - Who knew so many guys had a soft side? Rather than purchasing a gift this year, try surprising your guy with a handmade card expressing a sweet sentiment inside about how much he means to you, and pair that with a framed picture of the two of you that he can display in his room or his office.

3. Food

It’s true what they say, the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Whether you cook him a homemade meal, or surprise him with a “Hillshire Farms Sausage Basket” as one guy requested, he will definitely be satisfied this V-Day.

What Guys Really Want For Valentine's Day

If you’re feeling generous, one guy suggested a combination of all of the top three gifts: “a blow job, an eggroll, and a card”

Other gift ideas worth mentioning include watches, clothing, cologne, shoes, or video games.

Thanks to the advice of our trusted GAG community, we now know what gifts guys really want for Valentines. It goes to show guys care more about the thought and effort put into the gift, than the actual price of the gift itself.

What are YOU getting your S.O. this year?

  • I'm not a fan of gifts. If you're saving sex for special occasions, then I don't think you are having a mind blowing relationship.

    Food and cards are great but what would I give her in return? We men (inherently) lack skills to nourish/care our partner (we can 'protect' and provide resources better but not that). We're not artistic or good at cooking or equivalent. So, it leaves a burden on our shoulders.

    Giving flowers, teddies or chocolates seem so cheap and generic. And not everyone is rich enough to buy a diamond ring. And if you are, what would you give next year?

    Call me a boring person, but I'd prefer ditching every plan or schedule and go to somewhere where we never been or any special place like where we met or something like that and spend whole day there. The presence, sharing of inner thoughts, imagining the future or doing something together with proper and ecstatic chemistry may be the best v-day gift in my opinion.

    What I'm giving to my SO?
    I don't have one. We singles should give ourselves a gift by promising and literally, becoming a better ourselves so that we could deserve (or find) someone in future.

    Happy V-day everyone :)

  • Why is blowjobs such a common go-to answer?

    That seems to suggest that blowjobs are "special" enough -- i. e. UNCOMMON enough -- to qualify for gift status.

    Say it ain't so, mah lovelies?

    • Amen to that.

    • Blow jobs are pretty common, but most last for ten seconds and they're often not very good. Usually the woman doesn't want her man to blow his wad before she fucks him. Understandable, but this year, give your man what he _really_ wants and let your mouth be a cum dumpster.

  • Nothing at all. I don't want it to even be acknowledged.

  • I'll just do neither. A "Happy Valentine's Day" should suffice.

  • Blowjobs should not be saved just for special occasions.

    • thaaatss my girl, i lilke the spirit :D

    • If blowjobs are normal in your relationship, make this one special by thrusting it down your throat once you know he is about to cum.

  • Ha. I've gone with food.

    I'm making my other half Beef Wellington with homemade mash, spinach mornay, and shredded cabbage. And for dessert I'm baking him heart shaped homemade chocolate chip cookies. With some sparkly wine.

    I don't have the money for a proper present, so hopefully this will do...

    • It's WAY better than most stuff that stores are trying to push women to buy their men, and I'm sure he'll be more than happy - maybe even relieved. Most of us guys are SIMPLE, and our needs are simple (much more than most women believe) - it's just that, as simple as they are, we DO need our needs to be met, just like women do. If they are, we're happy guys.

    • Sounds awesome! I prefer a nice home cooked meal that I can see u put effort into far more than anything u can just go out and buy. For me it's the thought that counts anyways, and like this I could see a lot of thought and effort and work went into it, which would mean a lot to me. Ur man is a lucky guy!

    • It will! I would be thrilled to have a beautiful woman cook a decent meal for me. He's a lucky man!

  • Haha we don't do Valentine's Day here. After maybe the 3rd or 4th one the novelty wore off. We will be celebrating 13 years together (9 married) this year.

  • Why is a blow job special on Valentine's day? Your sex life sucks if you have to wait until Valentine's for that

  • We want sex, love/tenderness and food. Most of us would probably also like for Valentine's day to disappear as it is a commercial holiday made to guilt you into buying stuff.

  • I want to make a hot girl come about 10 times. Screaming loud, lewd, rough and get every orifice nailed. I'm sure this will go over well...(not)

  • A girlfriend.

  • If a blowjob is a gift, not a thrice daily occurrence... Just... Wow... What low standards for himself that guy has.

  • Since it will be my 30th alone Valentine's day I will go for my usual 10km or my usual deadlift session I guess. I expect nothing more nothing less.

    That being said, if I could have something it would be a cuddle and feeling that I'm special for someone else.

  • Unless the card is made of chicken wings or steak... I could do without LOL

  • Oh, OK, I don't expect anyone of these for Valentine's day.

  • I only agree with the food part and games. Cause you know, must guys dig that stuff.

  • I thought sex would've been another option on this take Lol

  • Thanks for listing "blow jobs" first. Yes. Whenever the choice is between a blow job and anything else, go with the blow job. Suck it until he cums this Valentine's Day.

    Also, why not get him all three? They're all great, and they won't set you back much. Just keep an ice pack on hand for your jaw after all of that sucking and chewing.

  • I think kiss. Kiss is enough and showing all.

  • A blow job, with a lot of ball licking, followed by a passionate swallow.
    That would be nice on Valentine's Day. :-)

  • I hate these kind of posts.

  • Food always works.
