The history of romance and Valentine’s Day is steeped in centuries of tradition, myth, and evolving expressions of love. The holiday traces its origins to St. Valentine, a figure shrouded in mystery who is believed to have defied Roman laws by secretly marrying couples to preserve their love during a time of persecution. Over time, this martyr’s legacy intertwined with medieval courtly love, where poets and writers celebrated romance as an ideal to strive for. By the 18th century, Valentine’s Day transformed into a cultural celebration, marked by the exchange of heartfelt notes, tokens, and gifts. For me, embracing this day is about honoring the timeless power of love—not just in its romantic sense, but as a driving force that shapes our relationships and enriches our lives. Making Valentine’s Day special in my life is my way of appreciating the joy and connection love brings, creating memories that celebrate both tradition and my personal journey with those I care about most.
The gifts in this guide are thoughtfully curated to make your sweetheart feel truly special. Whether it’s a luxurious indulgence, a sentimental keepsake, or something fun to enjoy together, each item is chosen to celebrate love in a meaningful way. These gifts go beyond the ordinary, creating unforgettable moments and lasting memories. No matter your love language—whether it’s pampering, adventure, or a heartfelt gesture—this guide has the perfect way to show just how much they mean to you.

First, the dealer of the turn selects a setup card. Then, players, who each have five phrase cards, choose which one they think best completes the setup. Once all players have selected a matching phrase card, the dealer judges which – in their opinion – is the funniest/most outrageous. The player who put forth the winning phrase keeps the setup card. The first player to collect five setup cards wins the game. With 400 new innuendo-filled phrases and 58 setup cards, groups of four or more will spend hours laughing and blushing their way through the game while saying with a smile (or a smirk) “that’s what she said.” Ages 17+, SRP $19.99
