Depending on your point of view, Valentine’s Day is either the most romantic day of the year or yet another made-up holiday. Whether you love the lovers´ day or believe it should have never been invented, read on to learn how to avoid some of the biggest Cupid-inspired blunders.

DO buy sexy lingerie.
Whether you’re single or coupled up, some of the cutest undergarments arrive in stores just before Valentine’s Day, so treat yourself to something pretty.

DON’T expect your man to heart February 14 as much as you do.
Even the most sentimental male sweetheart isn’t going to ooh and ahh over every red-and-white stuffed animal/heart/candy in his tracks.

DO embrace the day with your best girlfriends.
A night with the girls is always guaranteed fun. Just ask the ladies of Sex and the City, and while you’re at it, go ahead and rent the movie, too.

DON’T contact your ex.
Resist the urge to call, e-mail, Facebook, instant-message or text your ex. Trust us, no good can come of this.

DO suggest an alternative to roses.
Instead of overdone and overpriced roses, tell your man how much you love Gerber daisies or how pretty you think a bouquet of baby’s breath can be.

DON’T wear hearts.
Unless it’s underwear, steer clear of Valentine’s Day-themed clothing. The holiday apparel rivals the tackiness of ugly Christmas sweaters.

DO plan a date that’s outside the box.
Remember when Dylan took Brenda to donate blood in the original 90210? Now that was a heartfelt idea.

DON’T break up with your boyfriend today.
Honestly, who wants to be that girl?
