Cook for Your Significant Otherspaghetti

If you already know how to cook then there really isn’t much to this, except that you’d need to cook something different. However, if you don’t know how to cook it becomes really fun for everybody involved. Get a cookery book, or use these cool Nigerian food recipes. And make sure you have some practice before V-Day. To make it all look even the classier, dress up, and decorate your dining area and table complete with wine and scented candles.

Go to Dance Class

If you and boo love to dance then this is a very great date idea for val’s day. Now I don’t mean going to the club and partying away, though that would work too. The idea here is to do some kind of dance that will bring the two of you together. So maybe taking a lesson in one of those latino dances, they can actually be very sensual. So you could consider Salsa, Tango and the more classis dances like Waltz. The fact is that learning something new together has a way of bringing two people closer.

NetFlix Dinner

Every now and then, couples like to NetFlix and chill. So if you are not up for going out, you can actually just prepare some miniseries, get some comfort food or junk or anything that you and your partner would like to eat. Pizza, Steak, Chinese food, some junk, no healthy food please. Eating junk just one night won’t make you fat. Well the idea here is to order all the food you’d need and spend the evening watching movies, eating and cuddling.

Cinema Date

It’s Feb 14, so you should choose something romantic, complete with popcorn and drinks. The mood from the movie would set the mood for the rest of the evening. However if this is your first date, this is not for you. And after the movie you could still go grab some pizza and even some wine.

Body Paint

Of course this is a date that’s going to happen at home. If you are up for something new and both fun then this is something to try. It is something that can actually help a couple get intimate as you paint on the naked body. Painting on some parts of the body can be ticklish, so there will be lots of laughs and jokes. So just go to a paint shop, get body paint and enjoy painting on each other’s bodies.

Paint Together

Here now you are not painting on your partner’s body, you’re going to get a real canvas. If you know nothing about painting, then the night will all the more be fun. Set up your canvas, and each person should try to paint the other person. It will most likely be terrible, in a very funny way though. However it will be a great date none the less, and whenever you remember the image your will definitely have a smile on your face.

Go Hot Air Ballooninghot air balloon
