Small things we forget sometimes but means so much.

Never have I ever really looked into the history of Valentine’s day, but any day that celebrate love and kindness is a good day in my books.

Valentine’s day is one of our favourite and I know many don’t share the same enthusiasm but love it or hate it, it’s tomorrow.

 

Think of it this way…

Days are stressful and everyone deserves some time out to relax, love and enjoy.  In my opinion, a good relationship does not need Valentine’s day as an excuse to show love, but always nice to have special days, where we remember not to take each other for granted.  People like to feel needed and loved, and we know actions speak louder than words.

 

Do you remember when Valentine’s was simpler?

Those special memories of school handing out teddies, candy or thoughtful notes.  Wasn’t that the good old days…

 

Now fast forward a few years later and there’s a chance you might feel some pressure this Valentine’s day to get your significant other something special.  The thought of something special far out weighs that of something fancy or expensive.  Remember, sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in their hearts.  So here is a short list of some small things that we forget sometimes but means so much to some.

 

#1. Help… Show them you notice what they do and give them one less thing for the day or week and do it with love

 

#2. Who doesn’t love breakfast in bed?  Make his/her favourite breakfast with a little note that says ‘I love you’

 

#3. Hugs… No, not the quick ones we give in a rush, not the cold once that finish before they even started.  A Nice warm hug, because we all need one sometimes and really be there.

 

#4. Cook some dinner, light some candles, put on some music and make it a phone free night.  These days it’s tough to stay away from your phone for more than a few hours but I promise, it’ll be worth it.

 

#5. Reconnect… Everyone is so busy these days.  Some would love a date night and pamper session.  Some would love some time to just enjoy their partner without mental and physical distraction, just like in the honeymoon days.  Arrange some quality time together, something you’ve always wanted to do together – Talk and reconnect.

 

#6. Go somewhere special.  Doesn’t have to be the most expensive outing or getaway.  What matters most is that you show you listen to their desire and take them somewhere they have always wanted to visit.

 

#7. Remember what makes them tick, what they like, what they love and go all out.  Show them just how much they mean to you.

 

#8. If there’s anything that’s going to set the mood, this is it… massages are romantic and sooooo relaxing and calming.  Light a candle, put on some romantic music, grab the body oil and fall in love all over again.

 

So there you have it, a list of romantic ways to show your significant other ‘I love you’ this Valentine’s Day.

 

No one knows you better than you know yourself, so talk and share your likes, your happiness, your joys and your love.

 

Happy loving everyone.
