Valentine's Day special, part one: Once mates now...dates?
My boyfriend and I began dating just two months ago, but we were really great friends before we became romantically involved.
Since we have only been dating for a short time, this will be our first Valentine's Day together.
Both of us are full-time freshmen and have extremely busy schedules, so it is hard to plan out a date.
To us, a date is going out to get ice cream after a basketball game before he goes home.
This Valentine’s Day, I don’t know if we are going to be able to celebrate with a date or not, but I know that we will find a way to do something, even if it’s just saying “Happy Valentines Day. I love you.”
Valentine’s Day doesn’t need to be super expensive or extravagant. It is meant to be a day of love.
So yes, gifts and dinners are nice, but sometimes the best gifts are the simplest.
This is part one in a special Valentine’s Day series about different kinds of relationships. Look for part two on Wednesday, which will discuss a relationship between a couple who has been together long-term, though they never chose to get married.
