"On Valentine’s Day, I expect a gift. So if I do not get one, I seriously suspect there is something very wrong somewhere in my relationship. I will have to take on serious measures to find out the truth.”

Alex Muyoboke, Businessman.

"I will feel so offended for whatever excuse my lover has for not giving me a gift. However, I will not just let it go. I would make an effort to hear from her.”

Prince Kid, Local Artist.

"Relationships are not seasonal. Therefore, I cannot feel bad if I do not get a gift on Valentine’s Day. I will not do anything because I missed one on that particular day.”

Stephen G. Mugisha, Lecturer at Kigali Institute of Education (KIE).

"Of course I will not feel good when my lover fails to give me a gift, but this does not mean I have to do something to affect my relationship. I will just find out what went wrong and if she gives me a genuine reason, I have to understand.”

Esimael Niyomo Rinzi, Foods and Beverage Manager, Stipp Hotels.

"Not receiving any gift from my loved one on such a special day would be a disappointment.  And since I feel communication is important in any relationship, I will take the responsibility to ask why such a thing happened.”

Nadege Uwamahoro, Managing Director of Nana Events.
