A lot of us have a love-hate relationship with Valentine’s day. We all grow out of the generic flowers, chocolates and wine pairings because we grow jaded from the commercialisation of this Hallmark holiday, and do not wish to take advice from corporations on what we should do in our relationships to be a good partner. However, Valentine’s day can be whatever you want it to be. You need not spend money on generic trinkets if that is not what you or your partner like, but it can be a nice excuse to do something special for your partner.
It can take a bit more time and effort to think about a gift that is tailored to their tastes, but if they’re the geeky types, then a gift that fits their tastes will be priceless to them.
Almost all of us have a geek inside us. According to Dan Harmon, creator of Rick and Morty, all of us have a secret craving to be obsessed with something and not feel stupid about it. There is nothing more wonderful than knowing that your partner knows and cares about this aspect of your personality, and wants to celebrate it. So let us look into some geeky gift ideas you can give to your partner. These are simply ideas, so feel free to make your pick from them,
Geek Themed Jewellery
This is the perfect gift for a girl. A piece of jewelry may seem generic, but add a geeky element to it, and you have a personalized little trinket your partner can wear on herself! There is a lot of variety for you to choose from.

Whether your honey enjoys tea or coffee, there are customizable mugs available in the online stores for you to buy. You can pick the fandom of their choice, and engrave a special quote from their favorite character, a crest or picture that would mean a lot to them, or any special message you wish to write, and pick the shape and color of the mug you want, and let them do the rest. You can also simply go online and look for a good teapot or mug that is already available, and make your choice from the most popular options
