Love comes in all shapes and sizes — and flavors.

Yet another weekend where there are more things to do than hours in the day. Not to mention the fact that Valentine's Day is Tuesday.

For those who haven't figured out a way to show their significant other they care, we've got plenty of options for you to choose from -- and remember, just because it's not V-Day themed, it doesn't mean it wouldn't make a good outing to celebrate the day.

Take them to a show, whether it be art, music or theater. And this weekend's got a lot to offer with Darius Rucker singing Sinatra, the naughty puppets of "Avenue Q" or the jazz jam band Medeski, Martin & Wood, among many others.

Rather do something a bit more fancy? There's multiple balls taking place over the weekend, so get out that dress, dust off the tux and put on your dancing shoes.

And of course there's the obvious dinner and a movie, which you can never go wrong with in my opinion.

Don't have a significant other or are among those who think Valentine's Day is a commercial holiday? Don't worry, you haven't been left out. Consider going to the "Valentine's Day Hangover" show or the "Jilted Lovers Unite" event at The Cocktail Club, or go to any event that strikes your fancy and ignore the hand-holding and roses.
