Love LettersTake time to hand-write a special love letter for your valentine on Valentine's Day. Write about times that you've spent together and times that you have enjoyed. Express your feelings and all of the reasons that you love being with that person. Tell her things that you forget to tell her daily. Let him know how much he means to you. -
Candlelight dinnerEating out on Valentine's Day can not only be expensive but very crowded. Instead of making reservations, invite your valentine for dinner. Make her favorite meal and serve it up with candles, soft music and fresh-cut flowers. Many grocery stores sell inexpensive cut flowers for such an occasion. Place candles in the center of the table and light them to set a romantic mood for your meal. You can spend time alone together and not worry about a big bill. -
Rose petalsIf you really want to give flowers but can't afford to visit a florist, cut flowers from your yard and hand-deliver them. Pack a picnic basket and have lunch together. A Valentine's Day gift delivered by a loved one is better than a gift delivered by a stranger. You can also purchase rose petals at many gift and drug stores. Sprinkle the petals all over her house instead of buying a big bouquet. Have the flowers lead to you for a special surprise.
