When a person asks you out on a date in February, you should obviously take it as a romantic gesture and assume they want a big commitment. After all, it is the month of the two sexiest holidays, Valentine’s Day and President’s Day.

Do not show up to your date empty-handed! Follow along with our gift guide for ideas on how to make a great impression and send the right message to your new boo.

1. An exotic vacation

An exotic vacation is a great way to show your new love interest how into them you are. It doesn’t really matter that you do not know their work schedule or if they have an outstanding warrant in that state, what matters is that you bought these tickets and hotel and honestly the rest sounds like a “them” problem. It’s called an escape because it’s hard to get out of.

2. A ring

If you really want to make a bold impression, a ring is the perfect Valentine’s Day present. Make sure you don’t hit up any of their friends or family for permission or styling ideas, you would not want to ruin the surprise! If they react negatively in any way, the old “I’m just kidding” line works great, or double down with “I have never felt this way about anyone before.” You have a 50/50 shot of making this the start of a great marriage and a 100 percent shot of making this the most memorable first date ever.

3. A vial of your blood

If you are on a budget and can’t afford the other gifts on our list, a vial of blood is the most cost-efficient gift. Add a chic chain to hold the blood on a necklace, like Angelina Jolie famously did on the red carpet. Make sure it is YOUR blood. Anyone else’s would just make you look like a weirdo.

4. “Cool Girl Gift Basket”

If any of these ideas come off as a little strong to you and you’d like to take a chance of not impressing the love of your life, you could settle for a gift basket. Load the basket with their favorite DVDs, video games, gift cards to their favorite restaurant, and all the other things you know about them from stalking their social media. Do not include anything that you like, as you are a “cool girl” and will easily adapt their personality traits to suit them.

5. A photo of you

A photo of yourself is a great gift for your first date! Be creative in how you give them this gift. Leave the framed photo on their desk at work or on their bedside table. Do not leave a note. You can tell them all about how you got in when you go to dinner that night!

Enjoy your last “single” Valentine’s Day and let us know which gift you went with on Twitter.
