Brace yourselves, romantically inept masses! its February and that means Valentine’s Day will soon be upon us. Whether it’s ‘true love” or “complicated”, you will be expected to jump through hoops with chocolate and flowers in hand come February 14th. Never fear though, the team at TalkLocal have compiled a list of tips to keep you in the good graces of your significant other this Valentine’s Day.
1) Roses are a must
It’s a cliché for a reason, gentlemen, but it doesn’t have to be an expensive one. Don’t splurge on a bouquet, simply buy a couple flowers and give them to your loved one at different times of the day. Remember, if it sounds corny, you’re probably doing it right.
2) Spend the day together
Valentine’s Day lands on a Saturday this year so there are no excuses; spend the day with your significant other. Think of things you both enjoy doing and plan a day where you do as much as you can. Be thoughtful with planning your day and your loved one will take notice!
3) Write them a note/letter
Skip the mass produced card this year and write your loved one a note or letter telling them how you really feel. Write about your favorite memory together, what you love about them, whatever you can think of. Give your hand written note to your loved one over dinner or at a romantic point during the day. Trust us; you’ll be glad you skipped out on the card.
4) Romantic evening on the town
What better way to end Valentine’s Day than with a romantic evening out? Start with dinner and then go see a movie or go to a fancy bar or club. It doesn’t matter what you do, just experience the evening together. When planning your night out on the town, be sure to use TalkLocal to book your limo or even call a cab if the night gets crazy.
5) Most importantly, have fun!
