Question Posted Wednesday January 31 2018, 1:36 pm

So my girlfriend and I recently got together, and it being close to valentine’s day, I want to do something really big for her. I’m not sure if she is planning to do anything for me, and I don’t want to embarrass her. There are only a few people who know about is, and if I do something too big, people will figure it out. What should I do?

If I understand correctly, in another way of saying it, you mean you have not been dating long. I can understand not wanting others to know yet, early on in case sometimes happens and it is short lived relationship.
But as the recipient of a gift, you also don't want to have her overwhelmed with something real extravagant. She may feel the pressure or take it to mean this relationship is more serious than you may mean for her to take it. I do believe in love at first sight but also believe it to be a rare occurence. Most females, no matter what role they have or what they used to be in an LGBTQ relationship, I've known those with female tendencies to overthink and jump to conclusions easily regarding a relationship. You know her best. So either a card and dinner out may be best. If anyone sees you two eating out, that doesn't mean anything other than going out for a meal that happens to land on Valentines day. You are correct that she may not do anything for you as she may think it too early and not want to scare you away be seeming to intense early on. Most of worries are all in our minds. It might be best to have a simple chat and ask her 'Would you like to do something for Valentines day? I know its early in the relationship but you are special to me at this point and it might be nice to commemorate it. What do you think?" Get her thinking about. You could also add, 'it can be something small like surprising each other with little gifts, nothing too big to draw attention yet since we haven't been together for long.' Either she'll like the idea or not. That way she can be prepared and you both can still surprise each other with the gift.
