9 Sweet Sentiments She Really Wants For Valentine’s Day

February 4, 2015 / 16 Comments

Valentine’s Day is just another day, right? A day to celebrate with the one you love but that doesn’t mean it has to cost you an arm and a leg just to make that special someone happy!

Do I love flowers? Am I a sucker for chocolate? Is a weekend away something I desire? Yes, of course and absolutely but that doesn’t mean I have to have any of those things to make me happy.


I am a fan of the sweet sentiments! Buy me a big extravagant gift, I’ll take it but what I will always and forever appreciate more are the little gestures and acts of love that are given to me. So without further ado ladies and gentlemen here are a few things that your significant other truly wants and none of them will cost you a cent.

9 Sweet Sentiments She Really Wants For Valentine's Day

  1. Breakfast in bed. Let her sleep in for an extra half hour and bring breakfast to her. Heck, I’m sure she’d even be fine with cereal just as long as she doesn’t have to make her way out of the warm bed to get it.
  2. Prepare a meal for 2. Once the kids are all tucked into their beds, light some candles, put on some soft music and just enjoy each others company at the table with no food being flung at you or complaints about having to eat what’s on their plate.
  3. Give her the last bite. I once read somewhere that “if a person truly loves you they will give you their last bite” I think it’s supposed to represent - being more important to them than they are to themselves… or something like that, I honestly can’t remember I just know that I thought it was sweet.
  4. Shutdown. Not yourself… Just technology. It’s not going to hurt you to tape the game or read your tweets later. Give it up for just a day or even an hour and spend sometime focusing on her.
  5. Do something she loves. Grey’s Anatomy not your thing? Would you prefer to drive through the park instead of take a walk through? Well, suck it up! It’s just a half hour or so of your time and trust me she will appreciate it more than anything if she knows it’s something you hate.
  6. Hold hands just because. Take her hand in yours for no other reason than you want to. Holding hands signifies a sense of security, love and comfort. Touching will enhance your feelings and intensify the spark you have for one another.
  7. Let her know you appreciate her. Although she may know it… it still feels great to hear it from time to time.
  8. Peace and quiet. Run a hot bubble bath, have her favorite glass of wine sitting beside the tub, grab her favorite magazine or book that she is currently reading, light some candles put on some soft music but most importantly keep the kids away from the bathroom and just let her relax.
  9. Tell her the reasons why you love her. Is it her smile, her caring nature… whichever it is tell her but not just in any ordinary way. Let her know through a song or a poem. Not much of a poet? Can’t sing to save your life? No problem, she will admire you even more for stepping out of your comfort zone.

As a matter of fact why stop at Valentine’s Day? These sweet sentiments are ways that you can celebrate your love for one another every day. Bonus points if you do all 9 in a single day.
