Valentine’s Day falls on a Sunday in 2010, so you can really go to town on the experience. Here’s some great ideas for a romantic Valentine’s Day with your girlfriend, wife, boyfriend or husband.

1) Surprise them with breakfast in bed. Anyone can pop out to the local bakery for croissants. Set your alarm for early and be sneaky!

2) Surprise them with dinner and dancing. That’s right, plan a great meal and book a taxi. After he/she has consumed your splendid meal, you’re going to hit the clubs!

3) Off a no-strings massage. No strings means you are not expecting anything in return. Be sure to set the mood right first with candlelight and mood music.

4) Surprise her with a gift — of the remote control! If you’re a TV hog, give over for a change and let them watch what they want — no matter how much you hate it!

5) Give a series of lots of little surprises. Leave them to be discovered everywhere — in pockets, under pillows, in the car, at their work…

6) Surprise them often with compliments. Like saying how good he/she looks, how smart they are, etc. You could also surprise them by saying “I love you”, if you don’t say that often.

7) Surprise them with a date that is so obviously just for them. Do whatever you know they would love. Get tickets for the football or her favourite boy band. You’re going to have to grin and bear it, but it will be worth it for them.

Make one of their dreams/ fantasies come true. Does he/ she ever say I wish I’d done this/ that, or I would love to do this/ that. Then make it happen for them!
