Guys, I need help! Valentine's Day is coming up and I'm terrible at remembering dates. Last year I completely forgot until the day before and the panic was real. How do you all keep track?

Haha, been there! Forgetting Valentine's Day is a relationship hazard. What saved me this year was setting up a reminder system early. I use a countdown tool that shows Days until Valentine's Day so I can see exactly how much time I have left to plan. The trick is to check it regularly starting from early January - that gives you plenty of time to make reservations, order gifts, or plan something special without the last-minute stress. I actually set a reminder on my phone to check the countdown every Monday morning. When it gets down to about 3 weeks, that's my signal to start seriously planning. When it hits 1 week, everything should be booked and purchased. This system has saved me from so many panic purchases of overpriced roses at the gas station! My partner really appreciates the thoughtfulness when I'm not scrambling at the last second. Pro tip: use the countdown to plan something creative instead of the usual dinner-and-flowers routine. Having that visual reminder of time ticking away really motivates you to put in the effort.
