Don't do anything stupid and like take her to the movies.. do something that involves quality time.... Show her how u feel about her... maybe a nice romantic candlelit picnic or something... you know it doesn't have to cost very much.. just be a gentleman .... open doors for her..compliment her... we really like that stuff... just don't try tooo hard.

Surprise her with something she likes....it can be something sentimental by taking her to where you met and having a picnic....or doing something she enjoys....then take her out to a fancy restaraunt.....dress up...no jeans/sneakers....etc...research good restraunts in the area......and ofcourse buy her a dozen of red roses....although showing how much you like/love her is great....do tell her as well....

If she likes a certain flower other than roses...then by all means give her that.....if she likes humor then give her some witty card....(it would be nice if you wrote out the card in your own words)...If you got her a gift...maybe a nice pair of earings or a pendant/bracelet....then you can either give it to her before the meal arrives at the restaraunt or later that night when you get back to your house...

I like roses but I love it when my husband gets me flowers of any other kind. Roses are way over done and it looks like more thought has gone in to it when you get something different. Unless of course she really loves roses.

Bouquets work well also....get to pick and choose different flowers...and the florist puts it all together nicely....

if you are giving jewelery make sure it isn't in a box that looks like a ring box - if it is then she will think enagament ring & be disappointed in the gift unless it is one

menace beat me to all the advice. only thing I can really say is pay attention to what makes her tick. her interests, hobbies, etc. don't make it obvious you are paying attention to it, and then surprise her with something along those lines. you can rekindle the old times with her, or show her a fresh new side of your relationship doing an activity that has never been experienced before. don't overdo it though, because you don't want to come across as a puppy begging for attention.
good luck.
