We all know what’s happening in February, and as this time of year comes back around the same question still stands. Should your boyfriend ask you to be their Valentine even though y’all are dating? Many guys think that just because he and a girl are dating that he still doesn’t have to ask his girlfriend. It’s just the simple fact that guys don’t really care about the little things that matter in a relationship to keep it alive.
Who doesn’t like to feel special and like they matter, simple acts like this can make your partner feel so special. These days it seems like partners aren’t really doing anything to show appreciation for their partner. In this generation, it seems like there are no romantic people anymore, you don’t see guys randomly buying their girlfriend flowers or even taking them on dates anymore. The only thing you see are guys who have to be told by others how to treat their girlfriend which makes you wonder if he even cares about her.
If you ask a guy why they don’t feel the need to ask his girlfriend to be his valentine it’s always one of two answers, I don’t have to ask because she’s already my girlfriend or I don’t celebrate Valentine’s days. Which could mean only one thing when he says that, he doesn’t want to take the time to plan out how to ask you and he just doesn’t want to spend the money. Which if you think about it doesn’t make sense because there are so many other things you can do that don’t require money.
Many guys think just because I have a girlfriend they can just do the bare minimum and that would make her happy. Well, they are wrong, you should want to make your girlfriend feel like she’s the luckiest girl in the world, it’s so easy to do because of the internet. You can find cute and adorable gifts with just a click of a button. The gifts don’t even have to be expensive, a homemade gift would mean so much to her than something you order online.
I asked a close friend of mine why she thinks her boyfriend should ask her to be his valentine and she said because it’s a cute gesture and would put a spark in their relationship, says Tami Brown, a freshman.
I had to ask a male friend the same question to get his thoughts on the matter and this is what he had to say to me. It doesn’t really matter if I ask my girlfriend or not but I still ask her to make her happy and feel special, says Samuel Hill, a sophomore.
