Dear Hillary,
What should I get for my Thai girlfriend for Valentine’s Day? I am not sure if it is a big deal over here, but it certainly is in the UK. You send cards and flowers, and often don’t sign the card and see if she guesses just who sent it. What do you suggest? We have been an item for three months.
James
Dear James,
Considering that your email got to me AFTER February 14, my suggestion is that you buy a calendar for yourself first, and a big bunch of roses with a big excuse for her second. However, just in case you were asking about St. Valentine’s Day 2014, you won’t go wrong with dinner, champagne and roses. By that stage you will have been an “item” for 15 months, and you will know if it is worth having a big spend. But get your act into gear first, Petal.
