Valentine’s day is coming up. If you haven’t already, it is time to start thinking about ideas for dates. Sure, you could go to dinner and see a movie, but that’s overrated; you can do that any time. Why not try something different for a holiday that only comes once a year? You can spice up your love life and try something new and exciting.
Below are some ideas for a unique Valentine’s date.
Drunk in Love
Most areas are crowded on Valentine’s day and some places are even booked months in advance. If crowds turn you off, think about having a night in with your significant other. It’s your date and you want to have fun and relax. What is more relaxing than kicking back with your boo and having an alcoholic beverage? It would be even more fun to create one. If you’ve never made one before and need tips, Tipsy Bartender is a great resource. The company uploads videos that show you how to create drinks step-by-step. He has a variety of recipes to cater to your needs. Are you into fruity drinks? They’ve got you covered. If you’re not over the age of 21, you can replace the alcohol and have a mocktail, a nonalcoholic version.
First Date
Another fun, cute idea is to recreate your first date. It is romantic and allows for you both to remember why you started dating. Go to the same location as your first date, style your hair and clothing the same way, play the same song. Whatever you decide to do, have fun with it. This date will be sure to instill some giggles and reminiscing on old times.
Touch My Body
Looking to get a bit more intimate? Try a couple’s massage. School can be stressful and life can get hectic, so this a great time for the both of you to relax together. By being stripped down and in a state of zen, you’ll be able to connect on a deeper level.
Bucket List
Valentine’s Day is a great time to try something that you’ve always wanted to do. Sharing that experience with your partner makes it that much more special. Sky diving, bungee jumping, scuba diving, the list is endless. Engaging in these activities will have your adrenaline running and your senses heightened; it’ll be the date of your life.
A Leap of Faith
A great way to bond is to conquer your fears together. For example, if you’re scared to speak in front of a crowd, perform a comedy skit together at a comedy club. Maybe you’re terrified of having anyone see you dance, because you’re worried of embarrassment. You can face this fear by taking a dance class together. By doing this, you’re encouraging one another and it allows your partner to see that you’re not afraid of facing your fears.
Let sparks fly and have fun this Valentine’s Day loves!
