There is a lot of hype surrounding Valentine’s Day and it really boils down to a day of celebrating the person you are in love with. I hate when I hear people saying that its just an excuse to get you to spend money on flowers or candy. To be honest I think we should celebrate being in love every day but that just doesn’t happen since we all lead very busy lives. Its hard sometimes to carve out a little special time for the one you love. Here are some romance reminders to let your Valentine know you are thinking of them not just today but everyday of the year.
Flirting–this is one of the oldest forms of romance, start with a coy little smile, a gaze that’s held longer than necessary or a gentle touch.
Compliments–take a moment to tell your partner what you like best about them every day.
No Television/iPhone/Facebook/Twitter–during meal time prep leave the t.v. off and put your smartphones away maybe put on some music instead. (My latest music addiction is Pink Martini but you know the songs you and your significant other like best!). At the very least you should be able to spend some time with each other without both of you having to update your Twitter feed.
How are you?–take a moment to ask this question every day. And really listen to the answer don’t ask and then tune out!
Lastly, TEXT!–we all have smartphones so put them to good use by sending your significant other a racy text or two during the day to let them know you are thinking about them!

All super suggestions for Valentine’s Day… I think we put to much emphasis on what we should do and not what we want to do for this day..
