Is it more important to love or to be loved? I like not only to be loved, but also to be told I am loved. Valentine’s Day is the occasion when you can experience both. I hear some people say "Nigerians are not even romantic sef!!!" Well...not true! Valentine is just next week and it is not too late to come up with amazing plans that would blow your spouse's mind away. Because action speaks louder than words here are creative ways to tell your spouse, “I love you.”
1. On small pieces of paper, write down every kind of kiss that you can think of (examples: passionate, on the cheek, etc.). Then fill an inexpensive red felt bag with your “kisses” and give it to your spouse. Ask your spouse to pull several pieces of paper from the felt bag, and then give your sweetheart whatever kind of kiss is described.
2. Make a book about why you love your spouse and why you are thankful for him/her. The woman who sent this idea wrote, “He loved it! Said it was the best gift he has ever gotten. And it helped me to focus on the things I love about my husband and not his shortcomings.”
3. Take your sweetie on a scavenger hunt. Ask him/her to answer riddles to find the clues to items that you placed somewhere around town. The last item should give instructions that lead to your Valentine’s Day activities.
4. After enjoying a delicious dinner for two at home, give your spouse a massage and watch a romantic movie.
5. Surprise your spouse with a special getaway together.
6. Give your wife a dozen roses. On each stem attach a note for a future date—to do something that she would enjoy. (For example, “Go to the symphony.”)
7. If possible, go on a date with your spouse to a restaurant that you enjoyed when you first met. After you order your meal, take some time to write down favorite memories from the past year. Then share your lists.
8. Have 11 roses delivered to your wife, and then give her a 12th yourself while reading her a love poem.
9. Fill a large box with helium balloons and special gifts for Valentine’s Day.
10. Create an intimate Valentine’s Day evening at home while dining a soft, romantic music. It is a wonderful mood-setter. Dinner should follow just the two of you having the whole dance floor. I won’t say what all this will lead to, but it would be a truly romantic night that would not have happened at the local restaurant or beer parlour! I have more valentine ideas I want to share, I cant wait to try them myself too. Just stay glued and watch out for them!!!
