Q: My girlfriend and I have been together eight months. I know she's expecting something for Valentine's Day, and I feel an immense amount of pressure to deliver. What do I get her? - Charles, 27 A: Young man! Take a deep breath (or two...or three). It's simply not in your cards to strike out with the wrong gift (a.k.a. gym membership for your Yes-I-gained-weight-and-I-know-it girlfriend), as long as you change your thinking. The Coynes' make an excellent point in their book, Brainsteering. The best gifts don't appear out of thin air after racking your brain for weeks on end. Instead, the best ideas can come from playing on the uniqueness of your relationship, and by considering the special moments, great laughs, and interests that you two have shared. What's something that only you as her boyfriend would know to do for her or give to her? Keep these questions in mind this Valentine's Day and you will melt your girlfriend into a puddle of happiness and adoration.
