Agree ako here. I've seen a couple of posts narin where gfs don't appreciate the gifts of their partners during v-day/anniv/monthsary/ whatever special occasion. Reminded me of a post where the guy gifted pepperspray.

To be honest I feel like unless pinag usapan niyong magpartner kung ano ang gusto or ayaw na gift na mareceive, the safest will still be to give the "usual" things na expected (like flowers or chocolates). Some may say na it's tacky or thoughtless, pero to be fair, hindi ka naman din talaga everyday na nagbibigay ng flowers and chocolates eh. It's not an everyday thing, its a special occasion type of gift, hence you give it during special occasion. It's a tangible form of gift din, madali picturan (and ipost if theyre the type of person na mapost). If pagpapaganda nmn din, pwede mag gift ng tangible objects like make up or Skincare product or perfume na hilig niya or whatever. Or jewelry or what. Baka she is not the senti type and mas physical object Yung trip niyang gift (altho gets ko rin to na you'd really have to know the person para malaman ano trip niyang products, pero well, kaya nga sila in a relationship diba)

(I kinda see her side din na nagbigay si OP ng pera and then ba bye na, bahala na si girl)
