Is your man romantically-challenged? Leave this list on his dashboard:

1

If you’re planning to give her a ring, buy a large box of cereal with a freebie inside; unseal the bottom and the package with the prize inside. Put the ring in the surprise package, seal it, wrap the box in paper with red hearts, write a special note on the outside and present it to her.

2

Instead of asking her out the traditional way… kidnap her away for a nigh of romance! Blindfold her and take her somewhere romantic for dinner. Remove the blindfold when you arrive at the restaurant, but put it back on her when you leave. Take her to special places you’ve been before or places that hold memories (where you met, where you had your first date, etc.). At the end of the night tell her how much you loved every place you’ve ever been with her and everything you’ve done together and that you’d do it all over again.

3

Put a note in her Valentine that says, “I love you and to prove it, I promise to give you the TV remote for 30 days!”

4

If you are giving your partner a bracelet, buy her a stuffed bear, and have the bear wearing the bracelet. Wrap it and have a waitress deliver it to your table during dinner.

5

Give your sweetheart a “love” coupon that says, “I’ll do all the household chores for the next week!”

6

If you are not married… propose! Give her a heart-shaped box of chocolates, with one chocolate missing and a ring in its place.

7

Buy a tube of red lipstick (don’t use hers!); draw a large heart on the mirror she will use in the morning. Under the heart, write a note that says, “You are looking at the woman who has captured my heart!”

8

Buy 24 movie passes at a theatre and ask your sweetheart to pick one romantic movie to see together once each month for a year. Present them in a heart-shaped box with a very special love note.

9

Heart-shaped boxes can be the perfect container for your gift. Fill the prettiest box with a handful of glittery heart-shaped party confetti, glitter of red tissue paper, all hiding a little jewellery box that contains a heart-shaped necklace, bracelet, ring, etc.

10

If you plan to buy a dozen roses, put one on her pillow, one on the dresser, one on the TV; scatter them throughout the house and leave a special love note with each one.
