Valentine's is coming, where is your boyfriend or girlfriend?
Will you be sitting at home lonely?
As Valentine's Day approaches, many might not be ready for the love, romance and admiration that spices up February 14.
Here are some of the ways to get ready for the 'love holiday.'
Early planning.
Valentine's requires early planning and preparation and it's best to start as soon as possible.
For those intending to dine out, be aware that good restaurants are usually booked way ahead of the actual date.
One should therefore give oneself enough space to think through the activities you’ll want to do together on that special day.
Learn a new dance.
On this day, couples can take their time to learn a new dance.
Being in the digital age, you can do this by watching tutorials on either YouTube or TikTok for the latest dance moves to sweep your girl off her feet.
Craft gifts early enough.
One should try and avoid clichés and instead focus on something your significant other cares about.
You can use standard Valentine’s Day gifts like heart-shaped items, teddy bears, flowers and chocolate as part of a gift basket.
You can as well draft a letter to your partner which can only take up to 30 minutes.
Candle-lit meal.
If you want to express yourself creatively through food, go for it.
As the season of love approaches, many restaurants and hotels are already having meal packages for couples at discounted prices.
One should, however, not feel pressured since you can prepare the meal at home together with a beautiful set up.
One of the oldest signs of romance is a meal, most preferably a candle-lit dinner.
The table should be set for two, with red flowers littering the table, and the candles covered by a round lantern glass.
Plan that proposal.
Being a day of love, one can decide to go down on one knee.
Valentine's Day makes proposing easier since there is a romantic tone in the offset of the day.
There are many ways of proposing on Valentine's, either in front of friends, on a drive or even at a restaurant.
Pick your poison.
