Your unwavering love is the greatest gift you can give your husband. Even so, your No. 1 guy still deserves a tangible representation of your love and support — especially on the most romantic day of the year. Not sure if there's a gift that conveys what's in your heart? Take a look at this list of the best Valentine's Day gifts for husbands. "Ask your partner how they want to feel on Valentine's Day. Too many times, people put their wishes into what they want the other person to feel without knowing what their partner wants to experience," psychotherapist and certified life coach Asha Tarry said. Let his answers lay the groundwork for his Valentine's Day gift.

If he mentions his desire for more quality time together, then grab a sushi-making kit with all the necessary ingredients for a fun at-home date night. Or if he just wants to feel appreciated for all that he does around the house, put his favorite beer in a festive carrier and tell him to take a breather. If he gives you nothing to work with — all too common — then think about whether there's anything he actually needs, like a new pair of running sneakers, perhaps.

From noncheesy couples' activities to useful Amazon finds, these Valentine's gifts are sure to make your husband swoon. Take it from me, Yahoo's resident gifting expert, and get excited: You're about to knock it out of the park.
