Do they celebrate it here? Flowers, candy, gifts etc? If you give a chick here a friendship Valentine gift would they take it the wrong way?

The girl usually gives chocolate to the guy. Anyways, you have a filipina wife. So, you two can celebrate Valentine's Day whichever way that you guys prefer.

Friends don't give friends gifts on Valentine's Day - Valentine's Day is for lovers, not friends.

No such thing as a friendship Valentine gift - Just my opinion Smile
