It’s almost Valentine’s Day!  Do you plan to sit around waiting for your “secret Valentine” again this year?  It’s time to grow some courage.  No more girls talking about waiting for the boys; it’s time to step up!

Asking someone to spend Valentine’s Day with you all depends on your approach.  Not many people want a regular “Will you be my Valentine?”

You could buy a selection of chocolates for your would-be Valentine.  I know this seems like it’s been done before but just wait.  Before you walk up to them, say,   “I decided that you’re definitely far too attractive to be my Valentine. Because of this, I demand you eat all these chocolates to fatten up and make me seem better when you’re standing next to me.”

All jokes aside, you could always do something more professional.  You could simply buy flowers or something really meaningful to them.  I’m sure as long as you’re thoughtful and hard work was put into it, your gift will be completely undeniable.

If you don’t want to make anything, but you still want to be creative, maybe you could set up your Valentine to a secret date, and show up to surprise them.  I’m sure that would get a jaw-drop and it will definitely be memorable to them and yourself.

If you want to avoid spending money as much as you can, another mysterious romance you could do is find their locker during school and slip a note into it. It could say, “Be at the Fowler vending machines at 1:15, and you’ll meet your Valentine.”

When they open it, they will follow the directions and see you standing there.  You could also make them a card so you are not showing up empty-handed.

Or all tricks aside, you could simply just ask them to be yours.  The worst that could happen is that they would say no, right?
