Is it creepy to show someone you like them by giving them something for Valentine's Day?

Sounds like the thing to do for Valentine’s Day….. especially if you think you’ve got a chance.

I think that aslong as you keep it simple, as you have stated above, then it can’t be a bad thing. I wouldn’t call it creepy at all.

I would also be wary of just giving her the gift and wandering off though, otherwise you could just go back to the same place of quiet admiration the day after. (Dependant upon your state of self-esteem) I’d either leave a small note in the flowers basically saying “How about it?”. Or ask her when you give her the gifts if you are a braver man.

Either way, Good luck! and Please tell us how it goes!

Heh Thanks guys
I’ve only met her recently, so I don’t want to rush into anything or scare her, but it seems a good excuse to show her my interest or ask on a date. I like it @ModernEpicurian any other good short little message ideas? :)

Is she with someone? If she is I would not give a gift. If she isn’t I would probably ask her to dinner or something. Just tell her you don’t want to spend the day alone. Make it look like a friend thing.

@johnpowell
She’s single haha
But I like the idea of making it a friend thing, no on the flowers and gift then?

Thats a great idea, it’s a nice thought and show’s you really like her, just as long as she’s available because you don’t want to give the wrong impressions.
But instead of the gift and flowers asking her to dinner is a good idea as well, either one is a nice gesture, but dinner would be a great gesture to spend some of the day togather, get to know eachother. and I’m sure she would like the idea too.
good luck

@bean so one of the other? Places are going to be booked… hmm maybe I can cook with her, or something.
Thanks!

@warpling ye! cooking, or lunch or whatever, or dinner and a movie…. anything! but spending time with each other is the best thing you can do to start something.
Do you think she likes you too?

@bean Possibly, I met her recently, but am still trying to make sure I’m not just seeing that because I want to, you know?

@warpling yeah, well… what do you think you will regret more, trying or not trying to see if there’s something there? i think…. thats the most important, what ever you feel comfortable with.

What I can tell you is, I know it’s a weird feeling if she’s not that into you and you give her a gift. Check for the signs, really talk to her more.

@bean Right right, I just am debating whether waiting a while longer as friends and letting that progress slowly is safer than jumping the gun.

slow and safe is best

Valentine’s Day being jumping the gun haha

A small gesture will be the best, some thing small… unless things go well between you guys before valentines day then you can ask her out to dinner, or something more forward… but talk to her more, kind of try and suss out where things are at

@warpling… Slow & safe is one thing… but you’ve got to be careful you dont miss the boat. Too much caution is also a damgerous thing.

Depends if already is with someone,, also depends what you wanna give her ??

I think thats a great idea! :) if its someone yo don’t know very well or not romantic with a small gift like that can go a long way. It’s a very sweet gesture.

Send flowers, but not red roses. Flowers are a nice way of saying I like you and am thinking about you.

Uh… I certainly HOPE not! I intend to bring my wife a bouquet of flowers! : P

I think you should cook! Nothing impresses people more than someone making a meal for them. Make something fun, not necessarily fancy.

As long as it is something small, and not over the top, I do not think it is creepy; I think it is pretty sweet.

I don’t think it is creepy at all. It shows your interest and it’s a thoughtful and appealing gesture to give someone a gift. I hope it works out well for you and good luck in your efforts. =)

No way… I always wished this would happen to me in high school, haha. Sigh

I think thats the point of valentines day right..?

I do things like that all the time.. I think you its okay because its valentines day. Me on the other hand had done it on regular night of the week at like 4 am so she would see it on her car in the morning which might be creepy I dunno. she thanked me for it said it was cute.

i thinks its a great idea. go for it!

I think it’s sweet. Just don’t get her a creepy gift. No 8×10 nudes.

I’d keep it to just the flowers. Not a big bouquet, but maybe two or three.

I’d feel a bit overwhelmed with a a bouquet of flowers and a gift, personally, but if you don’ t think she’d mind all that, your gesture is very sweet.

I was asking myself that question…. I like a girl but she says that she doesnt like me in the same way, but I am thinking about changing her mind, so I was thinking of giving her something for valentines day. I suppose its not weird, im gonna give her something small like a rose and a card and ill see if I can charm her…Wish me luck. To sum up my answer, I dont think its weird.

You’ll never get her if you don’t do anything

no

a couple years ago i gave a boy (who id never talked to) a card for valentines day with a cutesy poem and my phone number in it. turns out we were a perfect match and february 14th will be our eleven months.
so yes, go for it!

Awwwwwwwww- cute! @generalspecific ; see- you never know…congrats!

Get the small gift and give it to her on some other holiday. Make one up if you have to. Many women would regard the V-Day thing as pressure. But a thoughtful, inexpensive gift is going to go over well – unless of course she “doesn’t think of you that way” in which case you’re already dead.

IF things go well, follow up with flowers on V-day.

Yep

Thanks all. Small homemade gift and small bouquet is sounding good
