Are you confused on what to get your love for Valentine's Day? Or thinking what to do if you have only been in this relationship for couple of weeks? It’s like a day before Christmas, there’s lot of pressure and expectations.
If your relationship is in a baby stage, don’t expect to get swept of your feet.“You have to walk carefully in the beginning of love; the running across fields into your lover's arms can only come later when you're sure they won't laugh if you trip.” Jonathan Carroll
One of the hardest things in any romantic relationship, especially at the beginning, is to avoid expectations, rule here would be to have no expectations that Valentine Day will be anything special for the two of you. The high expectations or wrong gift can also wreck a new relationship on valentine day itself. The holiday pressure for this day is all time high than any other holiday, it is tricky even for the most love-struck couple when a gift misses the mark.
Even if it’s brand new relationships don’t forget the day and tell your love that “I was just thinking about you”. At this stage it’s good to give a card with some chocolates or a red rose. If your relationship has crossed few months, do something special, without going over the budget,. It’s time to go for a movie or play with a nice dinner, nice flower bouquet with chocolates or a trip to nice spa, but not jewelry if relationship is not serious.
