5 sweet things to do this Valentine’s day

Valentine’s is fast approaching and for sure some guys (and even girls) out there are already planning on how to make the day special for their loved one or even the person they like or pursuing. I listed down some suggestions/guidelines to help you plot your Valentine’s date. Well, first off, I know we all have our idea of ‘sweet and nakakakilig’ moment, but for a girl’s point of view, I think these things should be taken in consideration.

  1. Bring her to the place you think she would appreciate. If your partner is someone who loves art, then bring her to an art exhibit. If she loves music, you can bring her to a music festival. If she just wants to eat then eat with her. Nothing is sweeter for ladies than knowing that the person who loves/likes them wants to experience or know the activities you are into. This just shows that you are putting more effort to know your partner better

    Let her face her fears and help her conquer it. Haha. I know this sounds insane but I believe this feels sweet too. Okay, sweet in the sense that you make her feel that you are there to protect her from what scares her (now that sounds knight in shining armor). To give you an idea, if your date has fear of heights, you can invite her to ride a zipline with you. Just make sure you too, can overcome her fears.

  3. Do the thing that you are both frustrated of. This could be playing a sport, attending a dance class, ice skating or cooking a certain recipe. This could be exciting, especially, when you both have each other to keep going on.

  4. Travel. Travelling with your special someone is sweet because it gives you a chance to know your partner more by discovering different things together, testing your partnership and most of all, building your trust with each other. Bring her to the places you’ve been and thought would be sweet to go with her.

  5. Take time to know/meet her family or friends. Loving someone also means that you also have to love the people they love no matter how unlovable they are. Whether you like it or not, the people whom your partner had grown up with or has joined with are part of her life so you have to accept them as well. Set a time with them. Doing this will not only let you get to know the people she cares but will also give you glimpses of who your partner is really is. As what they say, if you want to know a person deeper, as their friends or family.

Take note, these are just suggestions. The success of your date still depends on your creativity, planning skills and readiness. Whatever the outcome may be, just always remember that a day with your love is still the best day ever.
