40 First Valentine's Day Gifts Every Type of Partner Will Love

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

Here's the bad news: The first Valentine's Day spent together can make or break a couple. One day, your new relationship is hitting a comfortable stride. One holiday and an unfortunate present choice later, you're suffering from an acute case of eye strain because you're glued to your phone in hopes of seeing three little dots appear. Don't be that person! Get the gift that says: "I like you a perfectly appropriate amount."

That might mean you're in the market for a funny Valentine's Day gift, but depending on the vibe between you and your new partner, you may want to invest in something a little more serious than a "Ring for Sex" bell. (Or not, I don't know you guys.)

Now, the good news: We got you, boo. We've rounded up the best Valentine's Day gifts for him, the best Valentine's Day gifts for her, and just the straight-up best gifts in general. We're pretty much pros at all things romantic, including all the chocolate you need. And we've narrowed down every gift on the internet to find the ones that are the most suitable for a first Valentine's Day together. No pressure or anything.

If you've established that you both like to travel — potentially together — perhaps an adventurous scrapbook would be a nice gesture. (Don't do this if you've only been dating for a week; it's too much.)

Night at The Movies Puzzle

Positive Potato

If you've only been on a few dates but you still want to get something for them, go small. This Positive Potato will remind them that you're rooting for them, but in a not-weird way. (Because nothing says, "I'm not weird" like a knitted potato with a sign.)

Stealth 600 Gaming Headset

Turtle Beach's highly rated Stealth 600 Gaming Headset is a fantastic gift for a gamer... or the person you're hoping will become a gamer with you. Hint, hint. It comes in black, teal, and this pale pink.

"It's a great headset," says one of our senior editors, Cat Bowen, who has this very style. "I'm screaming sweet insults at my husband while beating him in COD, the romance is undeniable."

You know what everyone always needs? Another water bottle. But this one is the water bottle they'll love. It's pretty, it comes with an insulated sleeve to keep things cool (or hot), and they get a set of "Microdrink" hydration cubes in fruity flavors like blackcurrant elderberry.

AIRKNITˣ Boxer Brief

People love the undies from Mack Wheldon. These boxer briefs are made with the brand's patented AIRKNIT* fabric, which will keep their junk cool and dry. There are 25 colors to choose from, but definitely go with whichever one says, "I might love you but idk yet."

The Duo: Extra Virgin Olive Oils

If they do happen to be doing a spot of cooking, they'll need some olive oil, right? This bestselling duo from Brightland includes the brand's signature cold-pressed oils: Awake and Alive. (For us philistines, that means one is better for salads and drizzling and the other is meant for cooking.)

Big Flirt Candle

We're not shy about our love for Snif's latest scented candle, Big Flirt. We live for the mingling scents of champagne, patchouli, chocolate, and strawberry nestled into a heavy, scarlet-hued jar (worthy of hoarding long after the candle has burned out).

Eva
