Con l'uomo giusto, ogni giorno è San Valentino

I was told once that Valentine’s Day was created for men who hadn’t made any effort throughout the whole year, to make amends for behaving lousy, and that those who do make the effort celebrate love every day.

I learned in life that this is the absolute truth…

I think I was more wrapped up in the whole idea of Valentine’s Day when I was single. I thought that I was missing out on something.

I used to torture myself by looking at Instagram photos of all those happy couples and thought I was never going to be one of the lucky ones and that I’d spend my life ‘forever alone’.

It’s funny how now that I am in a relationship, Valentine’s Day is not in any way important to me.

It’s just a day, much like any other day and there’s no need to make a big fuss about it.

Dopo tutte le relazioni schifose ed emotivamente estenuanti e dopo ampi intervalli di tempo in cui sono stata single, ho imparato ad apprezzare un uomo che è sempre buono con me.

The truth is once you find yourself wrapped up safely in the arms of the right man, each and every day with him is Valentine’s Day.

You don’t wait for special occasions to tell one another how much you care because every day is special. You just need to put in the effort to make it that way.

Ogni giorno è buono per cucinare a vicenda o per andare a mangiare fuori.

Ogni notte è perfetta per coccole sul divano a guardare la TV. Ogni sogno è più dolce quando ci si bacia prima di addormentarsi.

There’s no need to wait for Valentine’s Day to show affection and to give each other attention.

Succede in modo naturale quando si sta con qualcuno che ti vuole e si preoccupa per te tanto quanto tu ti preoccupi per lui.

It’s all about the little big things and your ability to notice and enjoy them. When you are in a happy relationship, Valentine’s Day isn’t any different from any other day in the year.

Even the days when you can’t see eye to eye are not so excruciating because the problems you bump into are a part of life and you always find a solution and a way to forgive and make up.

It’s not about everything being perfect all the time, it’s about making everything great most of the time and dealing with imperfections when they cross your path.

Vedete, la vita non è un film romantico e tutto ciò che vedete su Instagram e Facebook come #relationshipgoals non è amore.

Si sa cos'è l'amore solo quando si sta con il proprio persona per sempre and then every day is Valentine’s Day.

So if you are single, don’t allow Valentine’s Day to bring you down as it did me once; it’s just another day in February and you never know what all the other days and months in the year might bring.

Maybe by the next Valentine’s Day, you will find a person who will make you see that you weren’t missing out on anything, you were just on your way to meet them.
