Select*: The Ideal Valentine’s Day

It’s February once more, and Valentine’s Day has just come and gone. For some, the occasion meant a special date with a significant other; for others, it signified the perfect time to send their crushes anonymous gifts or notes. Still, for a good number of people, it was just another ordinary day on the calendar.

But what if, instead of what actually happened, you were given the opportunity to experience your ideal Valentine’s Day? What would it be like? Here are the ways in which some would want to enjoy the fourteenth of February:

Kevin Narciso

“This is about as pretentious as it gets: surprising my significant other with a box of chocolates and flowers at their place, then snuggling under some blankets with the aircon on and watching some sappy rom-com movies while sipping on hot cocoa. It sounds as superfluous as anything, but I’ve always wanted to spoil my loved one in a way like that.”

In spite of the romantic possibilities that Valentine’s brings, there are still a few who choose to kick back with friends or spend it alone instead. Those who do ascribe to the idea of dates go for the chill, simple kinds. It seems that for many, Valentine’s Day really is about spending time with the people or person you care about.

What do you think? Would you spend Valentine’s Day the same way?
