How has Valentine's Day been treating you lately? Have you loved the delightful surprises and special treats your husband gives you to show his love for you? Or have you felt let down and even a little disappointed by his seeming lack of romance? Are you secretly hoping he'll do something wonderful to surprise you this year?
It can be hard when you see the diamond heart necklace another woman's husband bought for her or the beautiful bouquet of red roses. Do you feel a little envious and wonder what's wrong with your husband or if he even cares about you? Do you wish he'd figure it out and treat you the way you know you deserve to be treated?
Valentine's Day can feel disappointing if your partner doesn't seem as into it as you are. For a woman, not receiving the special treatment you desire on V-Day can leave you feeling unloved and disappointed.
For a man, Valentine's Day can be a time of high expectations and pressure to perform without having a clear idea what he's supposed to do. Some men feel it's not worth the stress or they buy a token box of chocolates without having their heart really in it.
Not every man is born with the Romance Gene to be a George Clooney or a Hugh Jackman. In fact, sometimes men seem to be in the dark when it comes to romance.
Neither you nor your husband needs to feel stress this V-Day. It can be fun and an opportunity to do something special together and share your intimate love for one another.
Be proactive to have the Valentine's Day you most desire. Even if you're one of those fortunate women who has a man who knows how to woo you with flowers and jewels, you can still find ways to make the day sweeter.
Follow these 3 tips, and you'll cherish the enchanting results!
1. Reflect on what matters most to you this Valentine's Day. Perhaps it isn't the traditional flowers and dinner at your favorite restaurant. Maybe it's walking hand-in-hand at the beach or a romantic candlelight dinner at home.
You could enjoy a ritual in which you light a candle and then tell each other what you love and appreciate about one another.
2. Design your wonderful day together. In simple, straight-forward language, tell your honey specifically what you'd like. Don't expect him to read your mind or pick-up on your subtle hints. Ask him what he'd like, and create your plans together.
Asking him for red roses doesn't have to dampen the romance for you. Appreciate his willingness to listen to you and give you what you want.
3. Write down all the wonderful things you love and appreciate about your husband. Then no matter what happens, your heart will be open and you'll feel your love for him all day. This is what Valentine's Day is really all about!
Make this Valentine's Day your best yet. Simply communicate honestly and open your heart. The rest will take care of itself.
I wish you a joyous, magical time with your special someone!
