Due to my lack of diligence to work today (lol), boredom strikes and a thought of searching the web for my skin problem will makes my time worth it. Until a certain article that connects Valentines caught my attention. Out of curiosity, I read the article and according to it, tho we use to celebrate it as a love day, Valentines had a dark origins. The article says that tho no one can really tell the exact origin, a good place to start is Ancient Rome, where men hit women. Hitting literally as they believed it will make them fertile. Interesting isn't it? Oh well this might be a good reason for those whose love status is Zero not to be happy on February 14, it’s a torture day (mmm should we spread this? lol). Raise your hands single ladies and men. 😁😁😁

Kidding aside and going back to present when February 14 is a day for love, there are hundreds even thousands or millions of suggestions Google has on how to make it special be you are on a relationship, relationshit, single or will celebrate with family and friends. Flowers, chocolates, bears and romantic dates are common gimmick but how to present it is the challenge. Personally I suggest that if you are planning to surprise your love ones this Valentines to:
1. Consider Comfort
Whatever you think is comfortable to do for your partner, friends, family and of course for yourself should always be consider first. This will be the first step on successful surprise gimmick. Yes, it’s always nice to try something new, but make sure it is something achievable. You might not think considering to buy bouquets when your date has an allergy of flowers. This will surely brings no good.

2. Aim for Success, Not Perfections
Who wouldn’t want a perfect day? Perfect foods, activities, a perfection for the preparations? Well in reality, instances happen. We should always consider that there might things that will ruin the day itself. In planning ahead, we should focus on ways on how the day will be of success. If you are of surprises and you need some help, never hesitate to ask someone who can lend a hand.
3. Make them feel they are well loved
Define love as yourself. Never forget that the goal is to make them feel extra special and well loved. Whatever ways you have, no matter how romantic or jologs it is, always remember that the important thing is to be happy; both of you to be happy. Love should be showed and told. Actions and words are better together. Remember that the reason of the day is to love and be loved.
