What's your Valentine's Day personality?
(BPT) - Whether you’re a hopeless romantic or you don’t believe in Cupid at all, everyone celebrates Valentine’s Day in their own special way. From a fancy date or a girls’ night in, to a festive class party with the kids, there are activities, and treats, to suit every type of Valentine’s personality out there. Which one are you?
The hopeless romantic
Do you wear your heart on your sleeve? Do you look forward to Valentine’s Day every year as a time to celebrate the people you love? Then you are a hopeless romantic and you embrace everything that Valentine’s Day stands for. For you, the day should be filled with thoughtful gestures that come from the heart.
Start by sending messages to the special people in your life. For a significant other, you might text famous romantic quotes throughout the day to show your love. Then, skip the expensive flowers and get crafty by making Sweetheart Roses with HERSHEY’S KISSES chocolates, which come in special pink and red foils for the holiday. Simply wrap two KISSES chocolates in cellophane or plastic wrap to create a rosebud shape and then attach your creation to florist wire and wrap it in green florist tape. Add a little note saying how much you care for a finishing touch. This gift is a sweet treat and you won’t have to worry about it wilting.
Does your sweetheart have a sweet tooth? New HERSHEY’S KISSES Chocolate Truffle treats are the perfect gift for chocolate lovers.
The last-minute cupid
If you are the person who waits until the commute home to swing by the store for your sweetie’s gift, you are a last-minute cupid. You like Valentine’s Day, but you are not known to plan ahead. Fortunately, there’s no need to worry with a few quick and impressive ideas for special gifts.
To start, a handwritten card is always appreciated. Simply say what’s in your heart – you don’t have to be Shakespeare. When the words are your own, your loved one will know you genuinely care. Next, attach a gift that signifies all the sweet things in life – like the HERSHEY’S KISSES Heart Shaped Tin, packed with KISSES Milk Chocolates, which is guaranteed to make her swoon.

The class parent
In classrooms across the country, Valentine’s Day is a special time to celebrate friendship at school. If you’re the class mom or dad, you know the class will be counting on you to help the kids get ready for this special day and prepare all the cards and goodies.
Help students celebrate their friends by having them make their own cards. Use construction paper, ribbon, glitter and stickers to help your kids make customized cards for classmates. Then, add a sweet treat like JOLLY RANCHER Dippers that are sure to be a classroom favorite.
Parents can also start a new family tradition at home and show their kids how much they care by giving them Valentine’s Day baskets. Fill the basket with impressive treats such as a REESE’S Peanut Butter 5 oz. Heart and a HERSHEY’S KISSES Milk Chocolate Rose Cane.
The playful platonic
If you think that Valentine’s Day is more fun spent with friends, then you have a playful platonic personality. You don’t need all the mushy over-the-top romanticism – you know the true loves of your life are your friends and you want to use this day to celebrate everything they mean to you.
For example, you might meet with your favorite buds for happy hour or spend the evening at home swapping manis and pedis with your best girlfriends. This is the perfect time to flip through some pictures and take a trip down memory lane. Make your home a festive oasis by filling a candy dish throughout the night with HERSHEY’S HUGS Candies in red, pink and silver foils.
No matter your Valentine’s Day personality, there are simple ways to make the day extra special. From yummy treats to sweet gestures, to the Culture Greetings Valentine's Day cards selection, you’ll show the loved ones in your life you care – today and every day of the year.
