I've always considered Valentines to be a bullshit Hallmark holiday. If you love someone, you should appreciate them every day and not just on the 14th when you're supposed to. I have girl friends who expect a list of gifts for vday and it annoys me. A lot. That's not what it's about. Expensive gifts doesn't mean you're loved.
My idea of showing your love? It's wildflowers not roses. It's something colorful and unique that you tell the florist to put together cuz it reminds you of me. It's the new Lego flowers that we build together snuggled on the couch. It's a message or sweet text telling me what I mean to you. It's cooking together in the kitchen taking breaks to kiss and dance and twirl me around in your arms. It's a walk through the park holding hands while you whisper the naughty things you want to do to me later. That's special to me.
Love isn't complicated. But people are. Say how you feel and make sure your actions reflect your words. One without the other is not meaningful.
Whether you're alone, together or apart today ~ celebrate love ❤️.
