Valentine for Her
Melva and I recently met and have gotten to know a really fine young man. He and his wife are celebrating their 10 year anniversary on Valentine’s Day. Man, he’s gone all out. He’s given her a few hundred dollars for a new outfit; paid for her appointment with her hairdresser for her hair, makeup, nails—you know, the whole works. He’s reserved a special room at her favorite restaurant and invited their closest friends to join them. He’s written a special letter to her expressing his appreciation and gratitude for their 10 years together. He will read and present it to her at the dinner in front of their friends. Now if that wasn’t enough, he’s been working overtime to make enough money to surprise her with a $2000 necklace that he’ll also give her at the dinner.
Over the past several weeks, it has been heartwarming to hear him talk about this special day. You can see him just bubble up with excitement in anticipation. Clearly, all of this is being done sincerely from his heart—not because he’s messed up and trying to make amends. He’s doing it because he truly loves his wife and wants this Valentine’s Day to be one that is memorable for both of them. Guys, he has the right idea. I hope you get the message.
Times are hard for a lot of people these days and you may not be able to do all that you’d like for your special lady even though you’d like to. The idea is to do what you can and let her know that you wanted to do a lot more. She’ll appreciate knowing that and is likely to be even more appreciative of what you’ve done to acknowledge her. Let your special lady know that you appreciate her, that she’s special and romance her.
Make her feel beautiful, desirable, wanted, and ignite them flame of passion in your relationship. Some guys might say, well, what about me? Yes, it does go both ways. So, check out what Melva has to say to women in tomorrow’s Valentine’s Day article. But guys, right now, just focus on your part in giving your woman a memorable Valentine’s Day. You’ll not regret it.
