My husband and I place a very low emphasis on holidays. We express our love for each other on a daily basis, so there’s no need to go all out on holidays, including Valentine’s Day. When I get home from work, I have no expectations that a gift or flowers will be waiting for me. We will likely make dinner, watch sports and play video games just like we do every Friday night. But, this doesn’t mean my husband doesn’t love me or care about me.
So, if your boo doesn’t go all out for Valentine’s Day, don’t get discouraged and assume they don’t love you. Instead remember the things they do for you all year long to show their love for you. Also, remember that gifts are meant to be given with no expectations for reciprocal action. So, if you’re giving a gift today, give freely and don’t use it as a covert contract.
Feel free to share advice for other women on Valentine’s Day or use this as an opportunity to brag about the great gifts you got and/or received from your SO.
