Let’s face it… Valentine’s Day is ALL about the women!! It‘s SO NOT a guy holiday… but it sure does put the pressure on the men to give the right gift. Many a man has doomed a relationship (or ended up in the doghouse) by giving the wrong gift on Valentine’s Day. Hmmm, are you feeling little beads of perspiration yet?
Are you wondering what on earth you can get your special someone this Valentine’s Day that is sure to be a hit? Wish you knew the ONE thing that would make her happy (and that wouldn’t break your bank account)?
Well guys, its easier than you think… seriously!
Let’s ponder for a moment: What do we all want? Unconditional love!
OK, so that’s all well and good, but you’re probably wondering how we turn this knowledge into a fabulous gift that will make her fall in love all over again?
Here’s how:
1. Write a Love Letter – Yes, as in the old-fashioned, grab a pen and paper kind of letter. Even if you say “I love you” a hundred times a day, a woman wants to know WHY you love her. So, grab a pen and tell her. Don’t get cheesy. Instead write from the heart about what she means to you, what she does for you and what you truly love about her. I promise you, it will be the best gift you ever give her!
2. Ease a burden – Figure out ONE thing that adds to her stress and eliminate it for one day. For example, cook dinner (or take her out), clean the house (or hire someone clean it), or detail her car (women go nuts for this thoughtful gesture).
3. Make her feel special – Consider your woman and what she would make her feel special. Stumped? Out of the Blue Delivered asked women what their ideal Valentine’s Day gift would be and the top three answers were peace and quiet, relaxing bath products and chocolate goodies ( jewelry was fourth). If your budget allows, send her off for a luxurious spa day. If not, create one for her. Put a “Spa” sign on the bathroom door, run a hot bath with bath salts or oil, turn on some relaxing music, light a candle or two, add a glass of wine and her favorite treat and leave her to soak in the peace and quiet. For extra points, warm her towels and robe in the dryer, give her a yummy body cream, give her a full body massage, paint her toes, and bring her dinner in bed. She will appreciate the thoughtfulness and the work you put into making her feel loved and special!
Hint: If you have kids, be sure to keep them out of the “spa” AND to clean up any mess they make. Nothing spoils a relaxation session like kids walking in every 5 minutes OR coming out to a huge mess (aka instant stress!)
Good luck men! I have a feeling this is going to be the year that you ROCK Valentine’s Day!
