A Beer and a Movie Night
"I would like to have a beer with him watching an action movie and eat Chinese. Very little conformism for me!" – Imane, 21 years old.
A Prince Charming Moment
"In the land of Care Bears, I ask for a prince charming!"
"In the most beautiful of worlds, I would like my darling to organize a small dinner for me alone by the sea, at sunset. We would sip a cocktail, take a walk along the beach, sit on the sand, and watch the sun go down… A Valentine's Day for the islands!" – Marion, 27 years old.
Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend
"Jewelry! It doesn't need to be a surprise; I'm happy to send him the models I like. But he doesn't do this holiday and hardly the others, so I don't expect anything from him, unfortunately. However, I would very much like something new in my jewelry box…" – Estelle, 36 years old.
Quality Time Together
"Roses are the minimum, and a good restaurant but nothing too fancy. I prefer an activity rather than a jewel. The important thing is to spend time together." – Elodie, 21 years old.
A Symbolic Gift
"If I had to choose a Valentine's Day gift, it would be something token. Because jewelry and other objects can come at other times of the year, when you least expect it. For example, I prefer that he takes me to a place I love (even if it's close to home) and we spend time just the two of us – that rarely happens…" – Julie, 24 years old.
A Touch of Luxury
"I'm not against a gift like perfume, jewelry, or makeup – a little luxury item I wouldn't buy myself!" – Lucia, 30 years old.
Being Heard
"I would love to get one of the things I keep talking about, like a bag or makeup, to feel like I'm being heard. But if he gives me anything, I'll be very happy because he's used to giving presents late." – Odalys, 22 years old.
A Gift That Reflects Me
"A gift in my image, showing that after all these years he knows me. Something that reminds him of me in aesthetics, meaning, or scent. That would be romantic!" – Melissa, 33 years old.
A Meaningful Moment
"I'm not thinking of a particular gift because for us, everything is in the moment. All our Valentine's Days are beautiful. Nothing exceptional, but beautiful. Since we met – neither of us was going on vacation – I showed him around Paris. We started with the Eiffel Tower, climbing to the top. Until that day, we just flirted. In the queue, we were all squeezed together, so we kissed for a long time to pass the time! I thought we were a real 'little couple'; it was dripping with love – beautiful but unbearable for me. Our relationship changed that day, and since then, for each Valentine's, we go to either the Eiffel Tower or Trocadéro. Very touristy, a bit cliché, but full of meaning!" – Lily, 26 years old.
