Most guys aim Valentine's Day to score on beds, survey shows

Two-thirds of men would rather have sex than receive a gift on Valentine’s Day, while only 30 percent of women fall into that category, reports said Tuesday.

The two-thirds of men wanting sex for Valentine’s Day are more than double the 30 percent of women craving the same thing. But perhaps this idea of wanting more sex is actually a plan to spend less money.

The survey also showed that couples expect their partners to spend way more than what they’re actually willing to shell out on gifts, according to TIME.

The Chase Blueprint Valentine’s Survey reveals that guys think their significant others will spend $230 on them while women expect theirs to spend $198. In reality, guys plan on spending $98 on their partners, while women plan on spending $71 on average.

The same survey shows that 43 percent of men and half as many women don’t even want a Valentine’s Day gift, and 20 percent don’t plan on spending anything on their significant others.

Seventy percent of the 1,200 people who took the Chase survey said they’d rather be surprised than pick out their own gift.

The average person wants chocolate, tech toys and dinner out over flowers, jewelry and a home-cooked meal. The number of people that would rather stay in for the evening has gone up 10 percent from last year, according to the RetailMeNot survey.
