I went grocery shopping last night with my wife. Actually we had forgotten to get my daughter her valentine's cards for school. We walk in and there are flowers and stuffed animals all over the place. You can see all these guys walking around with flowers and cards, getting their loved ones something for the special day.
I couldn't help but laugh inwardly. Why would you wait until the night before to get that special gift? Here are some rules that will make your loved one happy on those special occasions like anniversaries, birthdays, valentine's day, and Christmas:
- Don't wait until the last minute!
- If your loved one works in an office with a lot of other people, send flowers! It tells them and the other people that he/she is loved by you. Your loved one is not looking at other people getting flowers thinking, I could do better than who I have. Yea you don't want that :)
- Listen to your loved ones. Pick up on little hints they pass along for those special occasions.
- If you don't pick up on any hints, flowers are good (unless they say no flowers), jewelry is better, and believe it or not, a poem or love letter is acceptable when finances are low. If you do a combination of the above, you are golden!
Always show your loved ones how much you love them. There is no excuse, so don't even try getting out of it. It is also good to surprise your loved ones with gifts during the year for no apparent reason.
If you follow these rules, you will be rewarded!
