Decadent, Frivolous, & Defiantly Feminine


Yes, dear, there is a definite relationship between feeling loved, getting roses, and eating chocolate on Valentine's Day. If you haven't figured that out and you're a guy in a relationship, you're probably not going to be in one for long. EVEN if your lady says don't get me anything for Valentine's Day, you'd better do something special to remind her she's loved - BY YOU.

Guys go on the fritz all the time for not getting their lady something special on special days, and it's simply not acceptable for you to forget. It doesn't always have to be a whole dozen roses, or even a whole box of chocolates... But seriously, if you can't remember to get her something special, you don't deserve her. Even if you're FLAT BROKE without a dime to your name, you can STILL do something special for your lady.

And, when you DO get your girl something, don't come home and brag about how impressed the SALES LADY was with your generosity. It isn't the sales lady you're buying for - or is it?

Ladies want to be treated to special gifts, not just on special days, although - special days and special gifts need to be remembered - the most effective way of remembering your lady is to send her something outrageously decadent, frivolous and wonderful - just because. Your pickle won't fall off if you do something frivolous. Get the girl what she really wants, something that will remind her of those sweet little nothing gifts you gave her when you were dating. Way back when you were trying to win her heart - those things are important! Do them again.

Try a picnic at midnight under the stars on a warm summer night.

Get the kids all tucked into bed and have the basket prepared so all you have to do is grab a blanket and carry it out to the back yard. If you have done your gardening chores, you should have a nice private cove in the corner somewhere with a vine, some nice shrugs and enough cushy grass to have a picnic. Take a candle in a glass and enjoy the moonlight. You might get lucky and find there are fire flies lighting up your bushes.

If it's chilly outside, build a fire in the fireplace, or just light some candles around the room. Make it extra special, extra decadent, frivolous & defiantly feminine. Your lady will know you're thinking of her.

Ladies, just a little tip. If you've been hearing him talk about something special he wants, but hasn't gotten for himself yet, that's the exact thing you should get him for Valentine's Day. Go all out, take that extra step and give him something he won't EVER forget this Valentine's Day! You won't regret it!

  1. Excellent post, Jan! I do agree that giving gifts "just because" is a wonderful way to stimulate affection and satisfaction in a relationship. Also, Valentines day (being the commercialization capitol of holidays) certainly does not have to cost any money. There are so many special things that can be done without spending any money.

    Happy Valentines Day to Jan's readers!
