How to Plan a Romantic Valentine’s Day With Only 4 Days To Go and Zero Energy!! 

There is a way to pull this off. You can still succeed on Valentine’s Day and avoid the cliché box of chocolates or cut flowers.  In some instances, however, classic Valentine’s may be the way to go!  It all boils down to communication.  You will have to ask!

 The Question???

 Although Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus, don’t despair. Sometimes you really just have to try straight-forward questions.  “I’d like to do something romantic for Valentines. What would you most like to do?”

  Answer 1

ValBannerFinal -2

 If you get nothing but sarcasm, you may have bigger things to work on than Valentine’s Day plans. But, it doesn’t mean you should give up!  Classic may be the way to go here.  A reservation somewhere you can’t quite afford, combined with chocolates in a heart box is probably the best immediate step.  And you can still be lazy. Try an online reservation service to make a quick reservation without lots of dialing. Something like www.opentable.com.

 Answer 2

Really listen to the answer! If it isn’t sarcastic, then you are truly being told what she would like to do. And it pays to pay attention.  You might have multiple options, and none should be forgotten. 

Answer 3

If you get no answer, it can also be a good sign.  While straightforward communication is healthy, she may just feel like that answer is too much pressure. Whether it is a cop-out or not, saying “just surprise me” means she has trust in you.

It also means you can take a chance, or go traditional, and as long as you look her straight in the eyes when you “present” your present, she will think you rock.  But, if you have no ideas, see the last 4 sentences from Answer 1~!!MPj04409610000[1]
