16 Valentine's Day Gifts For People Who Aren't Into Valentine's Day
No flowers and heart-shaped chocolate boxes here.
We hope you love the products we recommend! Just so you know, BuzzFeed may collect a share of sales from the links on this page.
1. Treat your S.O. to a membership to an independent cinema and make movie date nights a regular thing.

There will also be plenty of other local independent cinemas near you to choose from.
2. Instead of flowers, why not buy your love a subscription to a monthly plant box?
Plants are for life not just Valentine's day... or at least for as long as you're able to keep them alive, which is hopefully longer than a single day.
3. Instead of getting chocolates, buy some cute cooking classes you can go to together.

They can even be chocolate-making classes!
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.
Like these cute measuring cups that will be used every day.
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?
Get the Romeo and Juliet t-shirt from Homage Tees for £29.95.
7. If your partner isn't into sexy lingerie, get them some soft and cosy pyjamas instead.
Like these cute and comfy peach pattern pyjamas that will be worn every night and not just on special occasions.
8. Treat them to this cocktail making set, which is a little more hands-on than just a bottle of wine.
And hopefully it won't be the only thing that will have ~hands on it~ that night!!
9. If you live together, buy something nice for your shared home so you can both enjoy it, like this cute tapestry.
10. Or like this cosy blanket you can cuddle up in.
11. If you want something much ~sexier~, get them a Lovehoney gift card so your partner can choose what they want.

You can even choose together, to make it a cute couples activity.
12. If your S.O. is really not into the romance of it all, get something completely unromantic but very practical: a portable phone charger.
They'll thank you eventually.
13. And if your relationship is solid enough, take it one step further and get an external hardrive.
Look, I know you're rolling your eyes, and the recipient of this gift probably will too, but they'll thank you when their computer dies in the middle of a very important project but they've got all their files backed up thanks to you. And that's what love is all about.
14. 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?

You can adopt an animal from WWF here.
You can also set up regular donations to any charity of your choice, like your local food bank.
15. And if you still insist on getting classic Valentine's day-themed gifts, may I suggest this teddy bear?
Like a regular teddy bear, but 1000x funnier.
Unfortunately it's currently only available in the USA, so you lucky Americans can get it from Amazon from $8.00.
16. Of course, you can always just get a big ol' bottle of lube.
The most appropriate yet practical Valentine's day gift of them all.
