Valentine’s Day Gifts For People Who Aren’t Into Valentine’s Day No flowers and heart-shaped chocolate boxes here. Natalya Lobanova, Buzzfeed Reporter

1. Treat your S.O. to a membership to an independent cinema and make movie date nights a regular thing.

2. Instead of flowers, why not buy your love a subscription to a monthly plant box?

3. Instead of getting chocolates, buy some cute cooking classes you can go to together.

4. You can get some fancy cookware that your foodie S.O./best friend/ whoever you’re buying for would probably never treat themselves to.

5. If you feel like splashing out, get this Instant camera to make ~instant memories~:

6. Instead of being like Romeo and Juliet, which we all know doesn’t end too well, why not just pay homage to them instead?


7. Some soft and cosy pyjamas

8. Treat them to this cocktail making set, which is a little more hands-on than just a bottle of wine. (21 & up)

9. this cute tapestry.

10. Or like this cosy blanket you can cuddle up in.

11. If your S.O. is really not into the romance of it all, get something completely unromantic but very practical: a portable phone

12. And if your relationship is solid enough, take it one step further and get an external hardrive.

13. If your partner really doesn’t want anything, but you still want to give them a gift, why not set up a charitable donation in their name instead?

14. And if you still insist on getting classic Valentine’s daythemed gifts, may I suggest this teddy bear?
