          I agree with Chef.
          If she doesn't like London, or it's dificult to get there, fly to Paris for lunch? If that's impractical or too expensive just spend the day with her doing things together - drinks, film, dinner, shopping.

            I'm utterly crap at coming up with ideas for Valentines. Help
            A present won't repair your relationship.

            My suggestion would be to set aside some time to iron out the problems. Flowers, a nice meal but FFS, talk it out.

                Why not say ‘I’m crap at thinking of presents but I want to spend some time together and enjoy each other’s company again. Where would you like to go for a weekend?’

                Just be honest about things.

                    What does she like to do? Shop, eat out, sports, theatre, concerts, hairdressybeuatythingy treatments, mudbaths with cucumber slices on her eyes?

                    Or do you not really know what she likes?
