With Valentine's Day coming up, many people are desperately trying to find the perfect gift for their loved one. If your significant other is the person who replies to "I love you" with "I love you more than the universe" or "I love you squared", then stay tuned, because here are the top 10 gift for your smart, nerdy, and curious significant other:
1. Dopamine Molecules Necklaces (with optional matching earrings)
1. Dopamine Molecules Necklaces (with optional matching earrings)
This beautiful piece of jewelry is pretty, practical, and scientific. Plus it is on sale now for $12.99! The earrings are $10.99, and just as cute! Dopamine is a neurotransmitter. It plays many roles, but one of the most important, it helps the brain control emotional response, so this would be the prefect gift for you to show your significant other how much you love them!

2. Punny Pie
This idea takes a little more work, but it is creative and inexpensive! First, you have to bake a pie. You can use any recipe you like, but I recommend this Pillsbury cherry-blueberry pie recipe that is easy and perfect for Valentine's Day. Once the pie has baked and cooled, you can write the pun above on it (my love for you is like pi, never ending). You can write it in whipped cream or by cutting into the crust (not easy). Or, you can write it on a red, heart-shaped note that you place on top of the pie.
3. Planetary Pops

These lollipops that resemble planets are such a cute alternative to a box of chocolates. They are sweet and the details on each are so incredible your significant other won't even want to eat them! Your significant other is bound to enjoy these lollipops. These can be pretty expensive, most are around $30.00, luckily, the site listed below has a 10 piece set for $7.17.

4. Stuffed Microbes (The Kissing Disease and the Common Cold)
These stuffed microbes are the most adorable representation of diseases, and love, your partner will ever receive. Not only are their great puns (ex. throw the common cold microbe at someone and when they catch it say "you caught a cold") but they are a warm and fuzzy friend. You can get them in all different sizes ranging from $10 to $30. The two pictured above, the cutest in my opinion, are rhinovirus or the common cold (left) and mono or the kissing disease (right). The website has any illness you can think of, from athletes foot to the black death, and even a bookworm. Additionally, the website is not limited to stuffed microbes, it has disease ridden ties, soap-dispensers, and key chains.

6. Vintage Anatomy Diagrams
This gift is one of my favorites because it is something than can be displayed in the house or office for a long time and you will be remembered each time your significant other looks at it. These vintage anatomy diagrams were collected from old textbooks and curiousprints has a large collection of them on Etsy. The one pictured above, the human heart diagram is perfect for valentine's day, but they also have brain, skeletal, and other diagrams. And the best part is that this heart one is only $12! Most of the diagrams are around this price too. With a nice frame, this could be the perfect gift to show that special someone how much you love them.
