1. Make a card with a sincere letter inside. It will be much more personal if you can express your love letter using your own words. If you're not the poetic/writer type, simply check the web links below, copy the messages or improvise it.


2. Instead of buying a dozen of roses, give her 1 rose instead. Put a ribbon and a short sweet message on a piece of hand cut card.

3. Buy her favorite bar of chocolate and wrap it with a red Japanese (tissue paper) with a sweet note inside.

4. If you know how to draw, make a portrait of her and don't forget to add a little note too like "I love your smile" etc. or if you're running out of words, just click on the link above for ideas.

5. Make a DIY coupon or voucher on a piece of cardboard paper. Let her choose 2, 3 or 5 coupons while blindfolded or let her eyes close. The coupons contains promises that range from the mundane to the downright sexy, all depending on your willingness to do things for your love.

Examples of coupon/voucher:

  • This coupon is good for 2 days of loving full body massage. Redeemable until end of the month.
  • This coupon is good for one night giving you a foot massage. To be redeemed right away.
  • This coupon is good for one night of wild romance. To be redeemed when you're in the mood.

6. Buy instant pancit canton, cook it, and let her choose the movie she'd like to watch.

7. Plan a picnic somewhere. Buy junk foods or foods she likes, spread a blanket, bring a tripod for taking photos together, a wireless speaker to play her favorite songs and just talk about anything under the sun. (The key is to spend time together)

8. Buy a dozen of balloons and blow it yourself  or let a friend help you inflate it and surprise her after her class or work. Let a friend take photos of the event.

9. If you know how to dance, surprise her with a flash dance and before the flash dance ends, let an accomplice open a DIY banner with a cute message while the party popper pops.

10. Make a Love Trail. Be gone for awhile and let her worry. Let your accomplices give her pieces of chocolates with notes like ( To find your lover, go upstairs and you'll find a guy holding the next piece of note with instructions on what to do next until she'd eventually find you holding a flower, a stuff toy, a cupcake, a chocolate, or whatever you'd like to present to her).

11. Download a karaoke app and sing some of your favorite songs together.

12. Cook simple foods and eat it together with a candle light. Don't forget to give her a card and a chocolate or anything within the budget. It's still nice to let her have something to hold on to for keeps.

13. Visit museums or historical landmarks within your local area and do the honor of taking her lots of photos.

14. Visit Valentine's Day booths organized by your local community. Try their kissing booths, wedding booths, etc. for added fun. Just don't be a Kill Joy.

15. Visit your local state fair. Try on some rides, participate in games, eat popcorn, ice cream, cotton candy and bring a tripod or monopod for photos.
