Over the years, I’ve come to prefer (and have worked tirelessly to perfect), a laid-back but romantic dinner at home for Valentine’s Day. The process is simple, and it starts by setting the mood. You know the drill: dim the lights, put a favorite record on, and prep a mouthwatering meal to roast in the oven. After that? Prepare for presence. To make any night with your partner more meaningful, I highly recommend asking these 24 questions for intimacy.
While ambiance is key to an intimate evening at home, without enticing conversation, even the most beautiful setting can fall flat. So let go of the stress of the day or the week, and come to the table with intentional questions that’ll help you grow deeper in your relationship. Because here’s an important PSA to keep in mind: Valentine’s Day can be more than an overpriced dinner or bouquet of flowers. With the right mindset, intention and questions, it can deepen your love and bring a fresh and exciting air to your relationship.
Take a look at these questions and jot down your faves. May the conversations they inspire bring you to exciting places with your loved one. Because however you decide to spend the evening, that’s really the goal, isn’t it?
