It's very important on Valentine's Day to acknowledge your partner and honor your relationship. For those who aren't able or fond of spending lots of money on gifts however, try one (or all!) of these Valentine's Day ideas to say I love you.
#. Purchase some clear red balloons. Before blowing them up, place either wrapped candies, small gifts, and/or love poems inside each one, and then give them to your loved one as a bouquet.
#. Make a meal only out of heart-shaped items, foods that are red, or both.
# Knit a scarf.
# Write a love letter to say I love you.
# Create handmade coupons with gifts your partner can use anytime, such as a massage or a night out on the town with friends.
# Does your partner ever ask you why you love them? Then create your own little booklet using dollar store items just for them entitled, "Why I Love You: # Reasons".
# Make a mixed CD of all of your favorite songs, or create a compilation of love songs that remind you of your mate. Better yet, learn how to play one of these love songs on the guitar and serenade him or her on Valentine's Day.
If you want a man to be interested in you, be interested in him. It works, because all human beings are egomaniacs at heart. Treating 'em mean only makes 'em go and find someone else.
You know when someone's trying to ask you out, so don't come over all coy in the misguided belief that it'll make you more alluring. If a handsome stranger asks, 'are you alright for a drink?', he is interested. Don't just nod, blush, and run away expecting him to follow you. If you find him attractive, accept his offer and strike up a conversation.
When you've been on a date, don't be scared to pick up the phone. Whoever told you to wait for three days (or whatever random number of days) before returning a phone call is an idiot. No man wants a stalker, but letting him know you're interested is the way to win his heart.

Love: Before I heard the doctors tell The dangers of a kiss; I had considered kissing you. The nearest thing to bliss. But now I know biology and sit and sigh and moan; six million mad bacteria and I thought we were alone!
