One top story could be about a couple who overcame great distances to be together on Valentine's Day. Maybe one was working overseas for months, and they made this special day their reunion day.
Another aspect of Valentine's Day Celtic stories could be the celebration of love through festivals. The Celts had many festivals throughout the year. Some of these festivals might have included elements of love and courtship. For instance, during certain spring festivals, young men and women would gather. There could have been a precursor to the Valentine's Day idea of giving gifts or tokens of love during these Celtic festivals. Young people might exchange handmade items or flowers, similar to how Valentine's Day is celebrated today.
These stories can make some people more cynical about Valentine's Day. For example, if someone has a bad experience like being stood up on Valentine's Day, they might start to see the day as just another commercialized event. They may lose faith in the idea of a romantic celebration on that day.
One idea could be to have a stargazing date. Just like in some Valentine's Day stories where couples enjoy the beauty of nature together. Find a nice, quiet place away from the city lights, bring a blanket and some hot chocolate. Lie down and look at the stars, talk about your dreams and the future. It's a very romantic and inexpensive date.
There was a Valentine's Day when I went to a party. I noticed a guy across the room. His smile was so charming. I accidentally bumped into him while getting a drink. We started chatting and found out we have so many common interests. It was a great start of what could be a wonderful relationship.
On Valentine's Day, my husband and I like to have a romantic dinner at home. We cook together, light some candles, and enjoy a delicious meal. It's a simple yet very intimate time for us.
One Valentine's Day story is about a man who decided to make a huge heart - shaped pancake for his girlfriend. But when he flipped it in the pan, it broke into pieces and looked more like a lumpy cloud. His girlfriend walked in and they both just burst out laughing at his 'abstract art' pancake.
One Valentine's Day story is about a couple who were long - distance. The guy worked extra hours for months to save up money. On Valentine's Day, he showed up at her doorstep with a bouquet of her favorite flowers and a hand - written love letter. It was a simple yet very touching moment.
One short story could be about a young couple. The boy worked hard all year to save up for a special Valentine's Day. He bought a beautiful handmade necklace for his girlfriend. When he gave it to her on Valentine's Day, she was overjoyed and they had a picnic in the park, enjoying the simple yet beautiful moment together.
One fail story is that a guy planned a big outdoor picnic for his girlfriend. He didn't check the weather forecast and it rained heavily. All the food got wet and they ended up having to run to a nearby fast - food place. It was really embarrassing and not the romantic day he had envisioned.
