5 Solid Tips To Spice Up Your Valentine’s Date For Older Couples; Money & Sex Alone Will Not Do The Trick

First things first when thinking of what to do, avoid the obvious. Avoid dinner dates, avoid club nights or parties, avoid staying indoors (unless it’s a last option), and be more creative. Your date doesn’t have to even be in an indoor event, nor does it have to be in the evening with both of your glamourously dressed.

Try enjoying a night at the beach, or going hiking! Even visit the zoo if there are any good ones around you. Boat rides, Go-karts, are just a handful of fun things you probably never tried with your lover that would be 10 times more fun than usual. And God forbids you to do a dinner date, but even if you do, do not eat anything you have eaten before.

Yes we know, despite all the feminism in today’s society, there is no denying, women want money and men want sex. Please try and offer a bit more than this as the icing on your date! Don’t strain your brain on what would be a good gift for your lover, in fact, the more out of the blue the gift is, the more memorable your valentine’s date will be. Buy him/her a fish in a gold tank. A unique clock that symbolizes love. An awkward teddy bear. The trick is the more unusual the gift, the more memorable to experience. Memories that would never be erased after you.

It’s okay to pick her up, have a chat in the car, and walk into the cinema with some small talk. Sit for 2 hours watching an exciting movie and then going to drop her off where you found her with gifts and more. Alternatively, or in addition, why not have a sit at a park, or at the beach, and get some quiet time to let him/her dump all that has been troubling them for the past week or months? Sometimes we can be in relationships but really feel isolated. Not because our partners don’t care but because we know there’s nothing they can do about it. So we hold it in. Whichever way get it out of them. It’s almost like detoxing before the big moment. And don’t just say it will be well, open dialogue, and even try to find resolutions of how you can even participate in making these issues better.

This is a really cool tip, considering you are not in a one-sided relationship where your partner is not proud of you. Be braggadocious about your lover. Let everyone around you know the status of your love for him or her. This can be done in many ways. Holding hands, a kiss in public, through words when around other colleagues, or random fun misbehaviors in public. It’s always flattering to have someone proud to have you.

As blunt of a tip, as this is, it might just be the most important. Don’t be the happy guy or girl when your partner is behaving like ‘Why Am I Here’. It’s easy to drop everything off when you are working to impress someone and they are non challenged about your efforts. But bare in mind we never know what people are going through. If you are over-excited about the day with plans on the line, observe your partner’s energy and make the plans flexible. If they want a quiet moment be quiet with them. If they want an intimate moment be intimate with them. Doing this easily helps arouse the fun in them. If your partner is bored whilst you are acting like Tom & Jerry all over town it would only make things worse. Let them see your downside when they show theirs, and remind them that your upside is effort. And then pick them up from there slowly until they feel joyful.
