With Valentine’s Day quickly approaching, the rush to find the perfect date is on. Although you don’t want to get your hopes up and plan too far ahead, there is nothing wrong with strategizing a game plan. Check out our gotta-know helpful hints for your special night.


Dress practical. Not sure where you're going for your date? Of course you wanna dress to impress, but you can never go wrong with jeans, a super cute top and a comfy pair of flats. Hiking in heels or bowling in a poofy dress hardly sounds like fun.


Dig a little. There' nothing wrong with doing some Facebook stalking – just don't admit you memorized his interests and posts. Awk. Be natural and subtle. Easy example: If he's a Hungers Game fan, ask him if he's excited to see any new movies.


No conversation hogging. Nothing is worse than listening to someone drone on about themselves for hours. Yawn. Make sure that you ask about him and what he likes to do. After all, if you're into the guy, you should be stoked to hear his stories, right?


Speed dial your BFF. Before you head out the door, a quick pep talk from your BFF can help calm some of your nerves. No one knows how to make you relax better than your partner in crime. That in mind, do not call or text her during your date. You don't wanna send the wrong image to your guy.


Be yourself! The most important “do” of all: BE YOURSELF. A boy will never like you for who you are unless you let him see who that is.

MOD MOD MOD MOD !!!
Hey, So Yesterday i was talking to my boyfriend and then he started telling me that we need some change . Like he always calls me baby, sweetheart, my love and things like that and i don't ALWAYS say the same things, but maybe thats cuz i get shy, and i've never had a steady boyfriend before, and he said that a guy likes to feel loved by his girlfriend and likes to hear sweet words from her. But I Am stupid sometimes >_< and don't have the courage and he says u don't tell me any secrets or things like that, although i do ! But I really dont have much going on in my life, So What could i do to spice things up a bit , what should i tell him ? Even if its a made up secret ! And how could i become less shy and say more sweet things Plzz I really need tips ! Frown and i don't want him to get bored from me, and thxx <3

Hey girl,

Plenty of couples don't use pet names, and it's normal to feel weird about them! You can show your bf you care without calling him things that seem silly to you, so tell him you're into him by saying "I like you" more often, or congratulate him when he does well on a test or at a sports game. And if you trust him, you'll want to tell him more things as your relationship develops.

This is great, GL! 🌺 I just hope I can find a guy in time. I never really seem to have much luck with boys these days.
