5 Romantic Valentine's Day Date Or Gift Ideas That Costs Nothing

This is a great way to show how much you love and care about each other.

More than that, a hug allows you to say so many things without words, without having to speak.

A hug can say, "I'm here for you. You're not alone. You can talk to me anytime and I will listen.

"Hold on to me. Let me hold you tight. Don't worry, don't be scared because I'll always be here for you."

Of course, it goes without saying that a hug can definitely express the words "I love you".

Because, really, why would you want to hug a mere stranger or a casual acquaintance that you don't even know very well?

It's only those that are special to us that we would want to hug and hold and cherish. 

So embrace your sweetheart. Just hold on to him or her.

Are you thinking, "wait, you want me to watch a movie with my lover? Well, sure, but, I thought all the things listed in this article were supposed to be free. How is watching a movie free?"

Well, if you've got free tickets to go watch a movie, then, yes, it would certainly be free.

However, even if you don't have free tickets, you can still watch a movie with your soul mate for free. How, you ask?

First of all, there's really no need to think about the theater when you think of watching a movie.

There's no reason why you and your partner couldn't watch a movie in your or his/her house.

You could watch something on the television or you could pick from one of the many DVDs that you likely already have.

Just because it's the fourteenth of February doesn't mean that these are the only kinds of movies and shows that you should watch especially if both of you prefer to watch other kinds of movies like action and adventure.

You can also consider letting your special someone be the one to choose what movie you're going to watch even if you know you're not going to be pleased with his/her choice since you're not fond of those types of movies.

But you can always choose to indulge your lover anyway, just because you want to make him/her happy and just because you love him/her much more than words can say.

For example, if he/she loves anime, then you can suggest that you two watch some anime movies even if you might not be fond of anime at all.  

You can always alternate in who gets to choose the next movie.

After all, who says that you should only watch one movie?

This one is definitely free but you might be thinking, "oh yeah, great, but what am I supposed to do exactly? You want me to just walk around with my lover? What are we going to do? Walk around all day? How can this be romantic?"

First, you don't have to walk around all day. You can choose how long you want to walk and where you two want to go.

Don't just walk around. Walk while holding each other's hands and talking. Talk about anything and everything that you want to.

Aside from admiring the scenery that you pass by, take the time to look into each other's eyes as you continue to talk and walk.

If your lover is feeling cold, be sure to put your coat or jacket around her to keep her warm.

Enjoy the beauty of nature and your surroundings.

You could even bring your cameras to take pictures of these beautiful scenes.

Of course, you should also be sure to take pictures of each other in order to document this special moment.

You can take pictures of both of you together and hugging with happy smiles on your faces, framed against a stunning background.

Perhaps, you can even decide to watch the sunset together after a long and enjoyable walk.

Who says that you have to spend some money just to have a romantic candlelit dinner with your special someone?

If you eat at home and just make use of the food that you should already have, then you won't need to spend anything at all.

You can be the one to cook a romantic meal for your partner.

If you can spend the entire day with him/her, you can eat together for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Just because you're just eating at home doesn't make your meal or the food any less special and romantic.

In fact, you can even say that eating at home can be even more romantic than eating out. Why?

Have fun cooking as you two talk and just enjoy each other's company.

If you're not very good at cooking, you can always ask your partner to teach you and help you such as with cutting the meats and vegetables.

If it's the other way around, then you can be the one to teach your lover how to cook. 

When you're having your meal together, be sure to have a conversation with each other.

Talk and laugh and just enjoy each other's company as you look into each other's eyes.

Sometimes, it's these little and simple things that can really express just how much you love each other.

It goes without saying that this activity is especially for those who love astronomy and the stars and the sky.

However, even those who aren't really into this can still enjoy a night of stargazing with their soul mate.

Don't you think it's really romantic to be able to be beside your lover as you two look up at the vast night sky and just admire all of the bright, shining, twinkling stars?

If you're lucky, you might even be able to see a shooting star then either or both of you can make a wish.

These are just some of the romantic date or gift ideas, which will cost you nothing, that you can consider doing  for Valentine's Day.

Remember that you don't have to give presents to your lover on the day of hearts.

It's not the material things that matter but the time that you spend with your soul mate.

As long as you two are happy together, it should be all that matters.

So, what do you think of these possible ideas?

What kind of gift would your partner like to receive on February 14?

Would she/he prefer getting a material item or would he/she like it more if you spent some time with him/her?
