Cupid’s Advice:

It’s important to show you care when it’s time for your partner to turn a year older.  Make sure to put thought and feeling into whatever you decide to do.  Cupid has some suggestions:

1. Thoughtful gifts: Give your significant other something that no one else would have thought to gift them.  It’ll show that you listen to them and, most importantly, care.

2. Throw a party: Whether it’s a surprise party or just an informal gathering of family and friends, organizing a birthday bash is a great way to make your mate’s day unforgettable.

3. Plan a trip: If you have time and some extra funds, plan a birthday vacation for the two of you.  If your partner has always wanted to see what Vegas is all about, plan a long weekend in Sin City and enjoy what the strip has to offer.
