How to Connect with Your Partner on Valentine's Day

While Valentine’s Day is just generally a day for loving and appreciating those in your life, it’s particularly special if you have a partner to share it with. If you’re looking for ways to spice up your Valentine’s Day this year, you’ve come to the right place. We’re skipping right over the standard dinner, chocolate, and flowers and going right to the creative ideas that will help spice up your marriage or relationship. Keep reading for all the date night ideas, sexy lingerie tips or romantic inspiration you may need to make this Valentine’s Day particularly special. 

Invent a new kind of date night

Perhaps “date night” for you and your partner has always been dinner and a movie. It’s routine, simple, and straight forward. And while that’s a great way to celebrate, there are a ton of other romantic date night ideas that can help set the mood for celebrating your love. Here are a few that you may not have done before: 

1. Tour a winery or craft brewery: Drinks anyone? If you two share the passion of wine or beer (or both), then this is the perfect way to change up your regular date night routine. Having an experience at a winery or brewery is especially perfect for any weekend Valentine’s Day dates, as well.
2. Hire a chef: You may not enjoy being the chef on Valentine’s Day but that doesn’t mean you don’t want a home cooked meal. Hiring a chef allows you to stay home and relax in the comfort of your own home all while having a delicious dinner for two. (This might also make it possible to spice up your marriage if you have little ones and can’t make it out but still want to make it special!)
3. Body painting: Now, this one is a little bit out there, but if you’re looking for a more intimate type of date night that you’ve never tried before, then body painting might just be your cup of tea. It could even become your new favorite type of foreplay depending on how artistic you are. Be sure to invest in the proper body paints, and test them beforehand to be aware of any potential allergies (ending up at the ER during Valentine’s Day isn’t fun for anyone!). Paint beautiful scenery, something playful or have them guess just what you’re painting on their body. It’s inventive, new, and fun. If you want to make it even sexier, try body painting with our hemp seed oil chocolate and a paintbrush.
4. Recreate your first date: This one might be a little bit sappy for some or beautifully nostalgic for others, but if you want to really connect with your partner, then head back to where you first began. If you had a really great first date, why not recreate it? The nostalgia may be just what you need to rekindle that honeymoon-like lust you had for one another.

Get creative with lingerie

You’re probably no stranger to purchasing sexy lingerie for Valentine’s Day — it’s the most romantic day of the year, after all. You want to make sure that you’re ready to enjoy a little intimacy after a night out together. Yet, if you want to spice up your marriage, don’t buy yourself the lingerie this year. Let your partner do it for you. That way, when you come home from whatever spicy date night you’ve planned, you’re ready to go. What’s better than slipping into that one sexy item in the bedroom that he or she has always envisioned?
