About This Quiz
Valentine's Day is usually regarded as a day for couples, and most of the surrounding marketing is all about not just romantic love, but heterosexual romantic love. However, the day is not just reserved for couples! The true spirit of Valentine's Day is about love wherever it may be. If you love your children, siblings, best friends, or even colleagues (hey, some of us are particularly fortunate at work) and they love you, then the day is also for you. Indeed, Valentine's Day can also be about loving parents, pets, or even that guy you're crushing on but haven't dared to ask out yet!
That's why we've put together this quiz to figure out which of the wonderful people in your life might find themselves sending you something sweet, just to show you that they care. Of course, due to the tradition of not signing Valentine's Day cards, you may not have known whose loving feelings prompted the gift ... until now. Just answer a few questions, and we'll help you deduce whose hand is behind the delicious chocolatey goodness heading your way. Indeed, if you have a little time to spare, you can even use this as a warning that you might want to get them something too! Let's get started!
