Five Tips to Keep Your Valentine's Day Romantic Feelings Going Strong Year-Round

By Felicia Slattery

Ah, Valentine's Day. The flowers. The candy. The cards. The fancy schmancy dinner in a "nice" restaurant. Sharing one decadent dessert with two forks. The romance. The soft music. The candlelight that makes everyone look amazing. How wonderful.

Then comes the rest of the year. After the flush of romance on Valentine's Day, most couples soon forget the sweet sentiments on the cards they exchanged and fall quickly back into their routines, which while somewhat necessary, can lead to boredom and stagnation in the relationship in a hurry.

To avoid falling into that boredom and stagnation in your relationship, try taking an approach written about by Bill O'Hanlon, author of Do One Thing Different. Change one aspect of your relationship and notice how powerful even a small, seemingly inconsequential change can be. According to O'Hanlon, "Although not everything is in your control, you do have the power to make your life better. The smallest changes in your life can move you in the right direction."

Here are some some small things you can change about your relationship that will keep those Valentine's Day romantic feelings going all year long. By the way, many of these tips are inexpensive or even free, so they work for even the tightest budgets!


Send each other free e-cards or virtual flowers on a regular basis. Websites like www.Hallmark.com and www.VirtualFlorist.com have developed a great way to have potential on-line customers experience their business: by offering free products delivered via email. Another plus is these services offer a wide variety of options to choose from, so you can send a funny or sentimental card or a photo of a beautiful bouquet or a fat-free box of virtual chocolates!

Start and end each day with the words, "I love you." By making this simple but profound expression of your feelings on a regular basis, your partner will continue to be reminded just how important s/he is to you.

Create a standing date that you never miss, regardless of life's circumstances. Decide what is important for you. You can read the Sunday paper in bed together while you enjoy coffee or tea together. You can go to church and breakfast together every Sunday morning. You can open a bottle of wine each Friday night after work and share your favorite moments from the week. Think of something you can do even if you are on vacation or other life events come up. You'll soon find yourselves looking forward to these special intimate moments.

Begin a "love journal." Write notes for each other in a book that you leave for the other to find: on his pillow, at her place at the dinner table, on the driver's seat of his car, in her bedroom closet. What would you write? Anything at all! Share your thoughts about an upcoming holiday, describe in vivid detail how you felt when you first met, re-live a moment from your honeymoon, explain your position about a recent disagreement, write a list of the top 10 things you love about each other. Whatever you can dream up, you can write in your love journal. Remember that the purpose is to draw you closer together.

Thank your spouse regularly. By offering a simple verbal thank you reminds your spouse that you do not take everything s/he does for granted. When he prepares a delicious meal, thank him for it. When she works long hours at the office to land a big client, thank her for working so hard. When he takes out the garbage, when she pays the bills - make sure your spouse knows how grateful you are by saying so.
What ideas can you think of that would work for injecting more romance into your everyday life? Remember, all you need to do is change one small thing to soon notice some big rewards. So instead of only having to look forward to the flush of romance Valentine's Day offers, you can have the entire year look forward to!

Guys-Valentine's Day Will Be Heaven Or Hell For You

By Andrew Jamaz

Guys, I know it's not fashionable to get ahead of yourself for holidays. I don't buy Christmas gifts until the last minute and I find that actually makes it more fun... weaving in and out of frantic people weighed down by kids and hundreds of shopping bags. I just make a bee-line for what I need to buy, grab it, and head for the "ten items or less" checkouts. Easy peasy. Christmas shopping done in 10 minutes... guy style. :-)

But, here's a big tip guys... don't leave shopping for a Valentine's gift until the last minute. It's a mistake of galactic proportions. If the shop happens to be sold out of the specific fragrance your significant other desires, you may as well move into the dog-house and board it up from the inside. :-)

There's not much you can do to buy flowers in advance... perhaps that's why flowers seem to double in price the week before Valentine's Day... so make sure you put a "post it" note reminder on your monitor, keyboard, bathroom mirror, fridge door and each bottle of beer in the fridge so that you remember to have flowers delivered on Valentine's Day. Even better, try going online weeks beforehand and book the flowers to be delivered on Valentine's Day. You could even book the flowers in January and then you won't have to remember to write yourself post-it notes. :-)



So, book the flowers early, be sure to get the exact fragrance she wants before the shops run out, get a nice card and READ it! You'd be amazed at how many guys pay no attention to what's written inside the card... it's about the same percentage as women who DO read the inside of the card carefully... they like scrutinizing every line for hidden messages! At the very least, make sure the message is suitable for your relationship. :-)

If you want to add icing to the cake, buy some nice chocolates. You can get them months in advance if you like. Women love chocolates, but usually try not to buy chocolates for themselves because they're worried about putting on weight. Luckily, chocolates they receive can be eaten guilt-free, which is why they make excellent gifts!

OK, so now you've got every base covered. You're all set for Valentine's Day, and it's still January! Time to put your feet up, relax and look forward to having a happy girlfriend or wife on February 14th. :-)

Valentines Day Crafts

By Eric Morris

Valentine’s Day is adorned with numerous craft specialties. Handmade crafts infuse Valentine’s Day with a special color. Numerous easy-to-make craft ideas swarm the mind long before the advent of the day.

A simple and unique craft item could enrich the special bonds between two lovers. Valentine’s Day candles are a popular item in the craft bag collection. All one needs to do is melt some paraffin inside a can placed in a pan of hot water. One could then paste the melted paraffin over some construction paper cut out the shape of hearts. This could be glued to a candle and as a finishing touch a ribbon could be tied around the base of candle. A collage of special memoirs could comprise the craft theme for lovers on Valentine’s Day. It could be a collection of photographs, simple treasures like gift wrappers, old cards or any other special memory.

Crafts for Valentine’s Day also include special wall hangings. The main features of these wall hangings are heart-shaped paper designs and images of cupid with a bow and arrow. These wall hangings could also incorporate some special personalized messages. Another creative craft item for the day is a Valentine’s Day address book. A simple address book can be enwrapped in a decorated piece of fabric cloth. The edges of this could be stitched, and a red ribbon with a few heart-shaped trinkets can be tied around it. This gives the address book a perfect Valentine’s Day touch to it.

For children, a great Valentine’s Day craft idea is the making of a Valentine’s Day heart crown. This can be easily prepared from a paper plate and construction paper. As accessories, strings of hearts and beads could be attached to it. The exquisite crown would surely excite the children with a princely and fairytale touch on Valentine’s Day.

Another wonderful craft idea for children would be to fill an empty baby food jar with a cinnamon-sugar mixture and candies. The lid of this jar is covered with paper cupcake holders and red hearts that are placed on it. “Happy Valentine's Day!” is written on an address label that is stuck at the outside of the jar. Besides this, a fuzzy bear craft would keep the kids busy for Valentine’s Day.

There are many more crafts for Valentine’s Day. The list is unending. In short, any simple handwork could be transformed as a craftwork for Valentine’s Day. In an age where ready-made crafts and gifts are the order of the day, and time is a constraint, simple and unique handmade crafts could add that special touch of exclusivity to Valentine’s Day.

Romantic Gifts for Valentine's Day

by Barry Ohman

Valentine's Day that special day February 14 is soon to be upon us again and have you gotten something special for that lady in your life. Romantic Gifts are a sure way of letting that special lady in your life know that you care enough for her on Valentine's Day.

There are so many different Romantic Gifts that you may purchase, but first you must know what that special lady really appreciates. I guess you should already know what she likes and dislikes, otherwise she wouldn't be that special lady in your life.

If she is one that has a sweet tooth while then maybe Gourmet Chocolates are her preference and you should be able to purchase those online or locally at your favorite chocolate shop. Remember that Valentine's Day is a special occasion, so make sure that they are quality chocolates and not just the run of the mill store bought quality.

Flowers are definitely another way to get her attention if she is one who loves to receive flowers, especially a dozen red roses which I am sure will get her attention. If that special lady and you are having a long distance relationship, sometimes the easiest is to order flowers online and have them delivered to her at her home.

Perfumes and Jewelry are other Romantic Gifts that you may give that special lady on Valentine's Day. Whether it may be perfume or jewelry that you get her, make sure that you choose either that is of quality for a perfume or say for jewelry a nice pendant with chain or bracelet.

For the perfect Romantic Gift you could get that special lady something sexy like some exotic lingerie. I am sure that that special lady would like to wear something seductive for you on Valentine's Day and what a better way than to get her something ahead of time.

You must remember that for your special lady Valentine's Day is not the only special day in her life. There are those other days of the year that are just as important to her as they should be to you if you honestly love her and they include her birthday, your anniversary, Christmas and maybe a few others.

Feng Shui Love Tips For Valentine's Day

By Michael Douglas

Throwing Oranges into the Lake (To Fetch a Husband)

On 15th Day of Chinese New Year, single ladies should obtain 3 mandarins and on each one, write the three most important traits of a man they want to marry, asking the God of Marriage (who resides on the Moon) to send a beau and then throw them into the lake.

Introducing Feminine Energy in a Male Bedroom

A man's room with objects, like guns, ships, etc. will only attract other male friends into your home, not a woman you would like to get married with! Introduce some female or Yin energy into the room with soft furnishings, and colours, posters of the dream girls you'd like to be with. If you're looking seriously for a woman to marry then be careful not to display types of women that you're likely NOT to marry.

Avoid Dark Red Roses with Thorns

Dark red roses with thorns actually have quite negative feng shui meaning, contrary to the traditional belief which finds them symbol of love! The colour red (apart from being used in marriage) symbolises bleeding and has negative connotations on occasions celebrating love, companionship and happiness. Pink, yellow, peach or cream roses (with thorns removed) have wonderful symbolic meanings associated with young love!

Red Lights in the Southwest

Energising the Southwest of your Living Room and Bedroom with Red lights is the ultimate conjugal secret for more active social life inside & outside the bedroom! To double the effect go for Rose Quartz crystal mandarin ducks and paintings of Red Peonies in the Southwest.

Facing Your Love Direction on a Date

If you're going out with someone special out for a dinner date on Valentine's day, make sure you're sitting facing your Nien Yen direction, depending on your date of birth to maximise your feng shui luck for happiness!

Remove Mirrors from Bedroom

Mirrors are often said to reflect another person always coming in between two people. This often means an 'extra marital affair' but sometimes it can be anyone such as a discouraging relative , a green-eyed friend etc... So remove or cover mirrors in bedroom.
