A lil' Valentine's Day Love Prompt

Here is a little Valentine’s Day project you can do with your fiancé.

Love is not only the big moments. It is the tiny ones that stack up quietly, until one day you look at your life and realize you built it together. If you want a sweet way to slow down and feel that gratitude, try this little game. It takes 10 minutes, it costs 0 dollars, and it usually ends with a couple people smiling at each other.

HOW TO PLAY TOGETHER:

This Valentine’s Day, use these prompts and notice even more clearly how wonderful love is.

Choose a number that matters to you both. It can be 6, 10, 12, or 33. Then write that many favorite memories with your person. Keep it simple and authentic. When you are done, swap lists and read them out loud, or text yours to them.

Prompts to get you started:

1. The first time you knew you were safe with them

2. A random Tuesday that turned into a favorite day

3. A trip where nothing went as planned but you laughed anyway

4. Something they did when you were stressed that made you exhale

5. A moment you felt proud to be with them

6. A tradition you accidentally started

7. A meal you still talk about

8. A song that is basically yours now

9. A hard moment you got through together

10. A tiny habit of theirs you secretly love

11. A “we” decision that changed everything

12. The most ridiculous thing you have ever laughed about together

    Optional bonus. End your list with a PS that makes them smile. Something like, “PS. Same time next life?” or “PS. Let's order takeout and sit close tonight.”

"Love is the only thing where giving more makes you richer."

Whether you are in the thick of wedding planning or celebrating years of partnership, taking fifteen minutes to write can be the greatest gift you give your relationship this Valentine’s Day.
