Valentines is a man's opportunity

Is Valentines just a female holiday? Lets think about this. What do men get out of this holiday? A lot. This is the opportunity for a man to take a relationship to a more deep level or even create a relationship.

Yes, women expect the romantic date, the chocolates (I REALLY expect this, no chocolate equals no loving), the kisses, the affection, the thoughtfulness. We expect objects and we expect your heart. But men can and do benefit from this holiday. Here's how:

Looking for a date:

This is the opportunity to score a date. Tell that girl you've been eye balling in the elevator that you don't want to spend Valentines alone and you'd rather spend it with her.

Looking for a relationship:

The man can take a date and turn it into a relationship. You've been on a few dates and tonight can be the night to turn it into something real. Take her to dinner, give her flowers and get a girlfriend.

Looking for forgiveness:

On rocky terms with the woman? Valentines offers you the opportunity to fix that problem. Show her how sorry you are and how much you love her by taking her to the spot you first met, the spot you first kissed, the spot you proposed at.

Looking for a good time:

She's feeling romantic. Wine and dine her, show her a good night and she'll probably show you a good time.

Looking to look good:

Remember Valentines ahead of time by making a reservation or planning an event this gets you points with your lady. Valentines is an opportunity to show just how thoughtful you are.

So, as you can see, men benefit from this holiday a lot more than women. The men get the opportunities. What do we get? Whatever you give us; It usually isn't much or what we want but we pretend that your good intentions mean a lot anyway.
