Women would rather get a hug than diamonds

DON'T say it with diamonds! Women would rather get a poem or hug than expensive jewels this Valentine's Day | Mail Online

Choosing a Valentine's Day gift is always a fraught affair - but it looks like it might just be about to get easier.

While most men could be forgiven for assuming that their other halves want to be spoilt with jewellery come Thursday, a new survey has revealed that all women really want for Valentine's Day is a hug.

Given the choice, nine in ten women would choose a thoughtful, romantic gesture over a luxury gift of diamonds.

Well you can't "super size" chinese food.....I'd go with McDonald's. Hmmm then again, you could order something hot and spicy from the chinese place and tell her that's how you're love is, plus you get fortune cookies

I'd rather just have the cash that the sucker was going to spend on the diamonds.

My Valentine is my 7 year old daughter. A hug from her is better than diamonds anyday.
