I havent thats why I need this

Photo frame from the warehouse, some materials from a scrap booking shop and a few printed out photos of us. Best present iv ever "Engineered" :)

I forgot it was valentines and rushed round the corner from work adn picked flowers form an old ladys garden. Caught up with the boys after work & got given a crayfish..my girls fav, went home & she was rapt as...phew....not that romantic, but I passed

A few years back I heard a radio competition where you could win 800 roses for your girlfriend. You had to write in and say why she deserved them so I took some time one morning come up with a really nice piece of writing explaining how she was the only person who could win this contest...next day I received a phone call to organise the event, I had won. Early on the morning of the 14th the event organisers and I met down from her house a bit and piled the 800 long stem roses into the front of a front end loader. As she opened the door she saw the cameras and radio crew and tried to run away, the bucket of the loader was lifted up and all the roses tipped out at her feet. The house ended up having roses everywhere but it did score a lot of brownie points.

I'm not normally a letter writing guy, or one to express my emotions but last year i took the time to sit, have a long think about what my partner means to me and how shes changed my life, what i'd like for our future and then wrote it all down for her. I left the sealed envelope on the pillow for her when i left for work.

We had previously been apart for almost two weeks and as it was also our aniversary I had to do something special. So for everyday that we were apart I wrote in a diary a different thing I missed the most about us being together and left in on our bed...with our favourite lubricant and of course chocolate...body paint that it. It was very romantic and very sexy.

Collected alot of photos of us on our travels and put them in a digital photo frame, then took her out for a picnic and watch the sunset.

My girl is a rose fanatic, so three years back I took her for an impromptu (Read "a week worth of organising in secret") picnic dinner at the Parnell rose gardens - her favorite place in the city. This year my kids are coming for the weekend, so thats the romantic picnic dinner or anything similar out.

Bubbles at the beach at sunset. Then night flight by helicopter over Auckland. Came home to find the red roses and romantic card I had prepared and hidden. I am good with card selections!

My girlfriend had never gone overseas - she was from a family of dairy farmers, who worked 7 days a week. So we'd been going out for a couple of years, and I surprised her with an envelope containing air tickets to Sydney, for a week. She still says hands down, it's the best present she's ever gotten, and she still vividly remembers how excited she felt when she opened the envelope. She's bloody nosey too, and for once I managed to organise it without her even suspecting it. We've been married 9 years now, and have 2 small 'uns, so I must have done something right.
