VALENTINES DATE IDEAS INSPIRED BY MTV's EX ON THE BEACH
If there is one thing I learnt from dating, it is that most
guys get distant during the period of valentine because of the pressure to go
all out and out do themselves every year when it comes to dates and gifts, some
even go as far as ending their relationship because they can’t handle the
pressure and come back begging.
But guys we the ladies really want valentines and we want it
with you!!!!! So the solution? Cheap and spontaneous dates.
Anyone who knows me will tell you I have an obsession with reality
TV and one of my favourite happens to be EX ON THE BEACH on MTV. Where technically
they put a bunch of singles in search of love together in a beautiful beach house
set them up on dates and brings in their exes to pretty much ruin everything
for them. Asides from all the drama I actually
enjoy watching the “tablet of terror” arrange these out of the box dates for
the singles in the house which I realised are pretty minimalist friendly and I will
be sharing some my favourite with you to help you take things up the notch the valentines
without breaking the bank.
- BODY PAINTING

This was one the most my favourite dates watching the show,
because all it costs is a pack of body paint which costs about #3000 naira for six colours.
So turn on some good music to set the mood, drinks flowing coupled with positive
attitudes, sounds romantic right? Plus you get to take funny, cute and memorable
pictures.

- COFFEE TASTING

can't remeber who went on that date so here's a picture of cups of coffee from thetourspecialists.com |
When I saw this at first I was like; “wine tasting I know
but coffee tasting really? But then watching and seeing how the date was more
or less about talking and actually connecting more, seems like a hit to me. The
best part about this is you can go to any café or restaurant that serves
breakfast meals anytime or simply get a couple satchels of different coffee,
desserts and set it up at home.
- YOGA DATE

This of course is my favourite because well YOGA! A lot of
people are still unaware of how intimate couple’s yoga can get, you don’t even
have to be a yoga guru to be able to have a yoga date absolutely anyone can do
it. If you can’t afford to go a yoga
studio, you can always head to Pinterest and search for simple couple yoga
poses for beginners.
- TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE

Remember Marty and Chloe from GEORDIE SHORE (also a reality
show on MTV)? They both landed in Ex on the beach and their memory lane date
was one of the most romantic I ever saw, although they weren’t together. So basically
the date has different aspects that involved moving to a new spot after a meal
or after an activity and at every new spot a pictures of the most memorable
times of their relationship was there. Cute right?
- MUSIC AND SOUNDS RELAXATION
That’s my top list dating ideas as inspired by ex on the beach,
the best part of this list like I said
earlier is all the date ideas are minimalist friendly and can easily be set up
at home for cheap.

This doesn't seem tailored to a Nigerian audience. The body painting maybe I can see, but the rest? Iono.
ReplyDeleteLol, I think Nigerians are beginning to be more receptive when it comes to trying new things.
