Since Valentines Day is fast approaching, I decided to post this. I wanted to prepare something unique for my husband coz this is the first time that we are together for Valentines Day especially as husband and wife. I cannot give something with a value coz I don't have work for now coz I just moved here nor ask money to give him a present. That's why I wanted to ask some of your ideas on what to do on Valentines Day. Something simple yet memorable for the both of us.

My husband and I have never really celebrated V-Day..other than getting each other a card and we've not done that in a couple yrs now...My bf has informed me that I'm NOT allowed to get him anything other than a card because I spoiled him (according to him) during Xmas and now its his turn to spoil me apparently....

About us? From the time we got married we spend only once being together in that occasion. What we did was had dinner outside and watch movie. In times that he was not here, so simple we just send each other an electronic V-Card and talk over the phone. In your case since you have no work yet, so why not cook for him and buy fresh flowers? Having dinner inside the house with lighted candles and play some music would be cheaper.

this year on valentine's day I am going to be 31 weeks pregnant so we are not going to do anything special apart from some gifts but the usual romantic night and dinner I dont know if we are going to do that.

I don't have any tips on what you can do. I will share my plans though. I am going to buy one of those kinky sexy dress up out fits. Not telling which one. I have never did that for my fiance and plan to do it this time. Have a great valentines day.

well i don't have an excellent idea . One cool way to make this V-day special is making one of his wildest fantasies come true. If u know him well enuf, u will certailnly know his fantasy. why not try this.. but this is only my thought !! happy mylotting !!

One of the Heart Associations sent a nice card, and I felt led to just use it and send it to my boyfriend. That's what I plan to do and make something nice up for a gift. That is my plan. I already addressed it, so we'll see.

Hello janyen! I don't really have a good idea about it. But maybe you could cook something for him, have candle light dinner with a romantic background music, a valentines card and a slow dance after having your dinner. I think it's memorable and romantic. Don't let him take you our for a date on that day.

I think I will have a great valentine this year.. lol. Because I will visit my girlfriend.. Now we have a long distance relationship because we are in different country.. So, I plan to go to her country and we can celebrate our valentine together..lol.. So nice! I want to suggest you, valentine doesnt mean giving something (goods) expensive but by everything u have, whatever is that, u can show your love to him.. That's simple, isn't it?

when valentine's day comes just prepare simple date inside your house prepare him food that he really likes, have your room romantically prepared,make your room dim have a candle lighting, have a talk with your life and how to work up your relation to make it more stronger, after sweet talk the last and final thing is making love with your husband that is where you will express your love for him make it more memorable do things that you don't usually do when you're making love with your husband. give him a nice and unforgettable night or day for him!

oh! i was surprised with your reply. it doesn't sound as a teenager but i bet your a guy? we obviously do this one before saying goodnight to each other but kinda making it in a different way as u say would be a challenge for me. thank you for this excellent idea my friend.
