6. Quality time.

I scarcely know how to help you with this. The poll is terribly limited. As it happens, I don't like jewellery, am not much of a movie-watcher and dislike going to the movies. But I would hope that if I actually had a Valentine, we might share the odd dinner and a bit of the old slap and tickle as an ongoing part of the relationship. So that for Valentine's or any other holiday, what I would want would be a more enhanced or focussed instance of what is ongoing between us.
