For many couples, Valentine’s Day is an opportunity to show love and affection for one another with gifts and other romantic gestures. However, if the standard Valentine’s Day staples like chocolates and flowers are starting to feel uninspired, it may be time to get creative.
Here are a few outside-the-box ideas for showing your special someone how much you care about them this year:
Recreate your first date. No matter how long you’ve been together, you probably still remember your first date. Celebrate your initial spark by trying to replicate that special date as closely as possible.
Create a shared playlist. Music is closely tied to emotions, particularly feelings of romantic love. To tap into these emotions, sit down with your significant other and brainstorm a playlist of songs that remind you of your relationship.
Build a vision board. A vision board, on which you post images, quotes, and other symbols of things you’d like to have or accomplish, can be a great way to help you feel inspired and keep you motivated to achieve your goals. Taking the time to build one as a couple can enable you to gain insight into each other’s dreams, while creating a visual reminder of what you both want from your life together.
Challenge yourselves with a new experience. Whether you decide to learn a new language, tackle a challenging hike, or take a cooking class together, navigating a new experience as a couple can be a fun and rewarding way to bond.
Create a date jar. Regardless of what you have planned for Valentine’s Day, brainstorming future dates can help keep the romance going. Jot down some fun ideas for dates you’d like to experience with your partner and deposit them in a jar that you can tap into the next time date night rolls around.
