So, this year, I have consulted the stars to determine the perfect Valentine's Day candy for your SO that will create the V-Day of their dreams. Astrology is a fun way to learn more about one another and can be fairly accurate most of the time.

I'll admit I am not an expert in astrology; however, I feel confident the results will prove truthful (and sweet). Here's the Valentine's Day candy you should buy your SO to guarantee they'll be yours forever:
