Guys, Better Get Creative This Valentines’ Day

Finding the right Valentine’s Day gift for your sweetheart just became MORE challenging. A new online survey says the "stand-by" chocolates and flowers just don't cut it anymore.

A new survey of 1,200 singles by dating site Zoosk.com showed 58 percent of women consider those more traditional gifts to be “too cliché,” wanting something that takes a bit more thought, imagination.

Don't forget a Valentine's card, (evidently cards are not cliche') 65 percent of women saying they’d be thrilled to get one.

More of the survey results:

• 72 percent of men and 58 percent of women say Valentine’s Day is an ideal setting for a first date
• 62 percent of singles say any day other than Cupid’s favorite holiday is the best time for a romantic date
• 49 percent of singles say a lack of pressure is the best thing about being single on Feb. 14, adding, “I don’t have to plan anything, buy anything, or get dressed up.”
• 36 percent of singles say they like being single on Valentine’s Day because they don’t feel forced into a manufactured sense of romance
• 16 percent of singles say being uncoupled on the romantic day is great if for no other reason than it’s simply “less expensive”
