1.Spending Quality Time Together
Arrange for dinner.
You can book a reservation at your favorite restaurant or you can cook. It doesn’t even have to be fine dining. Often just putting something together in advance is a good way to show your Valentine that you care and that you’re thinking of them.Add some candles, turn down the lights, and it's a perfect romantic evening.这条建议给的很棒吧？要么去餐厅吃，要么自己做。自己做也不一定要做的多好吃，最重要的是让另外一半感到你的关心和爱护。吃饭的时候，关掉灯，点上蜡烛，完美浪漫的一晚！
Plan a day out.
Spend an entire day exploring with your significant other. Go to anew museum, go paintballing together, or hike a long trail that you’ve both been interested in, but never had the time for.与Ta去周围游玩一天，可以去博物馆、公园、玩游戏、逛街等等。外出也是一个放松身心的好办法，但是外出一定要注意，选不对地方你就屎定了。
Go for a long walk together.
If you go to a nature preserve or big park, bring a field guide to birds or wild flowers and have fun working together to identify what you see.去附近的自然环境中走走，如果能够在途中有观鸟或者花的环节也是非常棒的。和Ta一起去探索自然，享受自然吧。
Surprise your significant other with a weekend away.
Book a few nights at a cozy bed and breakfast, or visit a nearby city for a few days. You might have to tell them to set aside the weekend for something special, but they don't have to know where you're going.与Ta一起外出旅行，享受旅行的乐趣。
2.Affirming Your Loved One
Write your Valentine a note.
Tell them how much you love them, and include specific things that you love about them, whether it’s how passionate they are about the things they love or their strong sense of justice or just the way they smile when they’re a little embarrassed.学会表达你的爱，可以写下一些具体的细节。
Volunteer with your partner for a cause they care about.
If they love dogs, offer to spend a day cleaning kennels and walking dogs at the local SPCA. By investing time in something near to their heart, you are affirming that what matters to them matters to you.如果Ta有养宠物，那么你可以照顾Ta的宠物，表达你对宠物的爱也是表达你对Ta的爱。当然也可以是其他的事情，但是最重要的是你愿意在Ta身上花时间，表达Ta对你的重要性。
Tell them how grateful you are.
For a day or a week, take a moment every time they do something you appreciate to tell them that you’re grateful for them and what they do.Especially try to note things you might normally take for granted.可以用一段时间想想Ta为你做过的事情，尝试写下一些需要表达感谢的细节和表达感激河感谢的话语。
Sit down together and tell your partner face-to-face what you love about them.
Notes are nice and can be saved for another day, but few things are as thoughtful and affirming as having someone look directly into your eyes to tell you how much they love you and why.这一条太深情了，自己看吧。
3. Giving Special Gifts
Order their favorite takeout just the way they like it.
When you know someone well, you learn their quirks: how well they like their burgers cooked, what they’re allergic to, that they can’t stand the texture of artichokes or hearts of palm. 如果你了解一个人，那么你也知道他们的一些“怪癖”。他们对于一切事物的感受和要求，包括非常重要的吃着一部分。所以，可以尝试点一次Ta喜欢的外卖。
Make them a music mix.
Maybe it’s old school to give CDs or mix-tapes in the age of internet streaming services, but that just makes it more fun. Make a list of songs that are special to the two of you or that make you think of them.选择Ta或者你们都喜欢的歌曲，把歌曲进行组合放在CD上当做礼物。
Pamper them.
Schedule a couples’ massage. Relax in a sauna. Spend a day at the spa with your Valentine, and they're sure to come away feeling seriously loved.可以与Ta去享受按摩、桑拿、Spa等等，放松身心好方式。如果你愿意亲身按摩更好，如果你的按摩技术跟老友记中的Monica一样就不要尝试了。
Send your partner flowers.
This gesture is classic, but that just makes it a clearer statement. If you know what their favorite flowers are, that’s great, but for many people, the gesture alone says it all.常见的送花方式，虽然这种方式非常常见，但是收到花的人还是非常开心和满意，尤其你能够选择Ta喜欢的花。
