Rae Harris
Valentines Day is on its way, with its seemingly endless array of gift options. With so many choices for what to get that special someone, it's easy to get confused. But don't worry, this list has got you covered. Here is the perfect guide to help you figure out how to make your offerings say just the right thing. After all, is there any better way to express yourself then through chocolate and flowers? Of course not.

Godiva:Godiva is the luxurious chocolate. It let's your honey know that you're serious and that your relationship is definitely worth any cost.

Dove: Dove chocolate is smooth and sweet. It shows your relationship is happy and comfortable, and definitely something to hold on to.

Ghirardelli: Ghirardelli is classic and oh, so good. Give these to someone your going to cherish, one mouth-watering bite at a time.

Sees: Sees chocolates are sweet and traditional. They're perfect for that relationship that's still in the early stages. Just to say, "I like where this is going".

Russell Stover: Russell Stover has been turning friends into sweethearts since before you were born. Give these to that special someone when you're hoping to make things a little more romantic.

Hersheys: Hersheys is low-key. It's cheap, it's friendly, and it's yummy. It's the perfect chocolate just to say, "I'm thinking of you."

Red roses: Baby, I love you, that's all there is to it. Red roses are the most traditional flower for expressing love, love, love.

Pink/white/yellow roses: Any color roses are romantic. Trying a different color may show a relationship that's a little less serious, or just one that likes to be creative and do things their own way.

Orchids: Orchids are the exotic flower. They represent both love and mystery. These flowers are perfect for an advancing romance, letting your girl know that no matter how much time passes, your curiosity is still piqued.

Lilies: Lilies are the perfect "we're on our way" flower. Give these to your budding sweetie and things are sure to get going.

Tulips: Tulips are fresh and different. And red tulips are particularly romantic. They're perfect for saying, "I want to be more than just friends."

Daisies: Daisies are the friendly flower. They're perfect for a relationship you're hoping to start or just to bring some cheer to any friend's V-Day.

    Oh I love Godiva's, but I'm afraid they don't sell them in these parts. This is red-neck country!

    As for the guys who show up giftless with the excuse that it's just a holiday for the florists, don't expect to get much love. Very cute guide!
