Be A Good Valentine
Flowers, candy and presents are nice on Valentine’s Day … but that alone does not make a good Valentine.
Here are some of our suggestions for how to be a good Valentine every day.
- Show your spouse that you love him or her every day. Obvious, right? Most forget to do this and it can be so simple. Little acts of love in secret places … for only her to find, frequently will help keep the romance and “special-ness” alive.
- Flirt, flirt, flirt. “Heart” him in short text messages. Give lots of good eye contact and laugh at her jokes.
- Keep the romance alive all year long. Develop rituals (the 14th of every month is V-Day or all Tuesday nights involve soft music and a candle for 20 minutes after the children are in bed). Be creative. Simple is fine.
