3. Go Shopping
Let's be honest, by the first Valentines Day he probably hasn't mastered shopping for you yet. Plus, he's still really eager to please you and take you places that make you happy! So if you love shopping and gifts, it's a win-win for both of you!
4. Emphasis on the Day
If you haven't been dating for very long and don't feel ready to spend Valentine's Day night together, do something during the day! Grab lunch and a movie or, if you're lucky enough to enjoy good weather on V Day, go to the beach!
5. Go on an Adventure
There's no better way to get to know someone than getting lost with them!

Choosing to embark on an adventure with your special someone can be both thrilling and enlightening. Maybe it’s a surprise day trip to a nearby town, a scenic hike, or even an urban exploration. The spontaneity of not knowing what comes next adds excitement to your bond, as you both navigate the unknown. Laugh at the unexpected turns, assist each other through challenges, and create memories that only the two of you share. By day’s end, you’ll find that you've not only discovered new places but also uncovered new depths in your relationship.
6. Watch Each Other's Favorite Movie
Share something you both love and appreciate! And get some quality cuddling time in!
7. Try Something New
Take a class together, like couples yoga, pottery, or even dance. Learning a new skill, whether you fail or succeed, will be fun for the both of you. Make sure it's something new to both of you though, so neither one of you feels inferior.
8. Concert
If you have similar tastes in music, why not find tickets for a concert you'll both enjoy?
9. Play House
Maybe this Valentine's Day is the first of many! Give yourselves a preview of the future by having a dinner party for two and a quiet night in.
10. Staycation
Maybe you just want to forget about the world and spend the day with your Valentine! Start off with breakfast in bed and then enjoy each other's presence all day.
11. Weekend Getaway
Depending on how close you feel to your Valentine, this may be the perfect opportunity to test the waters. Can you handle 48 hours of each other straight? Even if the answer ends up being no, you still had a fun weekend getaway!
12. Keep It Classy
Do something classy and cultured, like visiting an art gallery or going to the symphony!
13. Escape Room
Try something new and test how well you work together at an escape room! After you complete it, you'll both feel as stealthy as James Bond. If you've never heard of a breakout room, check out this video:
14. Bake Together
He could buy you Valentine's Day treats, but why buy what you can make? Get in the kitchen and make something sweet together!
15. Snow Day
If you find yourself in a winter wonderland on Valentine's Day, don't stay cooped up inside! Go out and ice skate, ski, or, if you're unlucky enough to be as uncoordinated as I am, make snowmen and snow angels!
16. Dinner under the Stars
Nothing beats the classics! Whether it's a rooftop in the city or a hilltop on the outskirts of town, being in each other's company and watching the beautiful view will make it a Valentine's Day you won't soon forget!
17. Watch Sunrise and Sunset
The order doesn't matter, just make sure you're together for both sunrise and sunset! You can plan a picnic and watch them together.
No matter what you do, your Valentine's Day will be amazing, just because you're together! But you want to make sure it's memorable. What other dates would you add to this list?
