Ladies, can you imagine that Valentine’s Day is approaching
soon? Sure, you may already know who will be your Valentine this year, but you
may also be anxious about what he will come up with this time. You also know
what he wants for his Valentine because you just know, right? So, let’s
overlook this part.
Some women don’t like surprises, but most of us do. He might
take you to a fine restaurant first or skip that and cook dinner for you; after
which you will unwrap the gift he gave you, but don’t have too much of a high
expectation. 25% of
men would rather have a root canal than come up with new ideas because
their creative juice is not like yours, admit it! So you may have to give him
some hints to make this Valentine’s Day more memorable than the last.
The Same Gift
You may still have boxes of uneaten chocolate at home from
the years before. By now, you probably have seen him bring you flowers and
lingerie, which most women don’t mind. However, let’s face it: it is not easy
to come up with something new every time. In addition to the pressure of
finding the right gift, there is added stress in buying something meaningful. The
National Confectioners Association indicated that in 2009, there were
approximately 8 billion candy
hearts made. However, those days of candy hearts are on their way out,
believe it or not.
Valentine Day has been modernized and men know that they
have to ‘up the anty,’ and put some more thought into it. This doesn't make it
any easier for them. Don’t be alarmed. You know what you want and will be able
to give him the shove he needs to go in the right direction.
Interesting Ideas
If you are like most women, you love romance, which means
that your man will have to begin to bring out his romantic side. Here are some
ideas:
Re-enacting your
first date: Most women remember every detail of their very first date and
most men have some recollection, but not much. So before February 14th,
when you both are sitting at home or around a restaurant dining table, remind
him of how special you felt about that date. Give him details of what made it
so special for you. Let him know how important it would be if you could turn
the clock back to spark the romance flare by revisiting that same place in
time.
Bring out his
physical side: Most men love the outdoors and anything physical. If he
loves skiing, suggest going on a ski trip; whether locally or out of state, if
you can afford it. Gliding on the ice rink together is another option. It can
be fun and the closeness will allow you to listen to his heart beating for you
and create a loving mood for more romantic and physical stuff later.
Take a couple’s
massage: Massage is something that a lot of couples might be neglecting,
but it is one of the most relaxing, pampering and sensual
activities that you could suggest for Valentine’s Day. By the time you are
both done with all the oils and lotions permeating your sensitive side, you
will be ready for the bedroom.
Change the bedroom
scene: Rent a hotel room or check into a bed and breakfast nearby. The
change of scene will instantly enhance your love life. Just the idea of being
alone without all the distractions of home is recipe for a wild night. You can
even add role playing to the mix.
Skip the movie or
watch the right romantic movie: Many film makers create movies every year
to meet the romantic crowd, but be careful what movie you watch on that
specific night. Some movies can spark strong opinions and you don’t want to
spoil your night with an argument. In 2010, the
romantic comedy, “Valentine’s Day,” raked in a whopping $52.4 million, but
critics felt that the film, racked with romance, infidelity and divorce caused
40% of the couples that watched it to see a divorce lawyer by mid-February.
Get dolled up:
Most women love the chance to dress up and feel special. Even if he has not
reserved seating in a posh restaurant, put on one of your finest pieces and make
sure he dresses in a suit. Step out into the night with a bit of mystery. You
will be surprised where you end up.
Be forthright and take charge of the planning to arrange for
a pleasant and romantic Valentine’s Day. Don’t feel bad about doing so. Nine
times out of ten, you will do a better job at it than your man. If you don’t,
you may end up regretting it and being mad at him for not trying hard enough.
