8 Ways To Show Your Husband You Love Him This Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and that means it’s time to think of all the different ways you can say I love you to your husband. Maybe you’ll plan a simple but romantic night in, or you’ll step out for a fun night on the town to celebrate another Valentine’s Day together.
Either way, though, you also want to think of a more tangible way you can express just how much you love him—and while you’re not against gifts, you really don’t want to just get him another mug, beard kit, or jacket. You’d rather do something a little different this year. But what?
Here are 8 ways you can show your husband you love him this Valentine’s Day.
01 | Watch that movie he’s been mentioning for ages.
You know the one—that one old movie that’s one of his favorites, which he’s mentioned now for years, saying, “We really need to watch that on one of our next movie nights,” but keeps getting passed over for a new release. Make this Valentine’s Day the night you finally watch it together.
02 | Do a spa day with him.
Both of you could do with some pampering. If you have some money to play with, book a day at the spa with him—and go all out. Do massages, masks, soaks, and sip on champagne. Or if you want to save a little money, why not get a spa kit online and have the spa day at home?
03 | Bake his favorite dessert.
Nothing says I love you like baking his all-time favorite dessert. Whether he loves red velvet cupcakes, cinnamon rolls, chocolate-covered strawberries, or key lime pie most of all, go the extra mile and bake it from scratch. You’ll get to indulge in something delectable as a reward for your hard work.
04 | Do a photoshoot.
One of the best, most romantic ways to mark an occasion? Dressing up and doing a professional photoshoot! While Valentine’s Day is just around the corner now, you might be able to find a photographer who isn’t booked yet—and you’ll have beautiful pictures to show your grandkids one day.
05 | Offer him a back massage.
There’s no man alive who’d say no to a massage. But for Valentine’s Day, really go all out. Get a massage kit, complete with scented oil, and maybe even hot stones. Watch a few massage tutorials on YouTube, put on some soothing music, and let him enjoy.
06 | Spend the night at a hotel.
Why not change things up a bit? Book a hotel room in a neighboring town or an area you don’t normally get to go to, bring some wine, order in some takeout, and enjoy the simple pleasure of sleeping in a bed you won’t have to make.
07 | Cook a romantic dinner.
You know his favorite dinner—the one he always has a hankering for on his birthday, or asks his mom to make just like when he was a kid? Make him feel loved by surprising him with it.
08 | Write him a sweet letter.
We don’t always have the right words to express what we feel in the moment. So this Valentine’s Day, write him a long, personal, sweet letter. Tell him how you’ve seen him grow and change over the past year, remind him of why you’re proud of him, and assure him of how much he’s loved.
