For far too long, Valentine's Day was traditionally known to be a celebration of love, only in the realm of the real world. Date nights in restaurants, movie nights at home or long walks in the open expanse, each year 14th February infused such a romantic aura in the air, that you couldn't help but get weak in the knees.
But over the years, as love began to transcend distance and borders, the trend of virtual Valentine's Day celebrations emerged. A truly crucial shift, one that glorified love in the digital era and made it possible to create heart-fluttering emotions with just a screen in the middle.
Now that virtual Valentine’s Day surprises have been adopted by most couples in long-distance relationships, it's time to elevate these surprises with a touch of grandeur. The aim is simple, to plan a wholesome day or night that makes your sweetheart feel special in myriad ways. And reinforces the thought that distance can never come between love.
Here are some virtual Valentine's Day ideas that will shorten the distance between you two and make you feel closer than ever before.
Cooking is a love language that's both sensual and romantic. So when you do it as a shared activity, it becomes that much more warm. Pick a special recipe, maybe what you ate on your first date or a dish that's your ultimate favourite. And then start date night, even before it actually begins. Stay on video call and make a run to the supermarket. Choose ingredients together and experiment with your own too for that added love. At home, hit the play button on your love playlist and get started. The flirty talks, the process, the flavours, the aromas, it will all come together to create a night that's one for the ages.
Who said you need to go to the movies with bae on Valentine's Day, when you can just enjoy the movies from your couch? Use streaming platforms that have the option to synchronise your movie-watching experience. Pick out the genre that you both love or try something completely out of your comfort zone, prepare movie snacks, throw a comfortable blanket on the sofa and voila! Your movie date night is ready. Sit back and enjoy a wholesome movie experience and don't forget to gossip all about it once it's over.
Watching the sun rise or set can be a cathartic experience for most. But when you get to do it with your partner, in the real or virtual world, it ignites love, togetherness and passion like no other. Pick a spot like the park, the cliffside, or even just your balcony from where you can get the best view. If you two live in different time zones, make sure to catch both the sunrise and sunset for an enriching experience.
There's something about planning the future together. It enthrals you and pushes you to look forward to spending some of life's most spectacular moments. So this Valentine's Day, get on a virtual call to plan out a date, where you get to hold hands, hug each other and revel in one another's company. Make sure to plan it to the T. The date, the time, the location, the vibes and everything else you can think of.
When you push each other's limits to discover the joy of exploration, it makes your bond stronger. So don't hold back and discuss all that you two want to do individually and then plan to do it together.
