Valentine's Day Tips for Men

Hey guys! Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and here are some tips to help men make this a very special night.


I know, I know… When it comes to planning romantic evenings, weekend getaways, or even vacations many men seem to be in the dark.

So what should I do? What would she like? Where do I begin? Where do I end?


For over 40 years, I’ve been in the world of personal growth as a counselor, author and master life coach, helping both men and women with their romantic lives, their intimate lives, to make sure they’re doing everything possible to keep their passion on fire!


Valentine’s Day is one of those days that is so important to many women, and that men have to be willing to pick up their game if they want to see their relationship continue to blossom year after year.


So here are some very simple tips for men to follow to let their partner know that this Valentine’s Day… will be one they’ll never forget:


Number One. Send roses to her even if she’s working out of her home! And here’s something I’m going to tell you to start to light the fire, send them before Valentine’s Day…… And why?


Because she would never expect it. It will surprise her. You could send them a week ahead with a note that says “pre-Valentine’s Day love! I love you so much honey, I wanted you to know before Valentine’s Day that you’re my Valentine’s… Every day of the year.”


Sound sappy? So what… Do it anyway LOL, many women would love the attention.


Number Two. Leave her a note, with multiple options that she can choose from when it comes to celebrating this Valentine’s Day.


So many of my female clients have told me “David I hate it when my husband, or my boyfriend, has to ask me every year what I want to do for Valentine’s Day… It makes it seem like I’m always making the decision when I really wish that he would just risk for once take it on his own and do it for the both of us.“


For men that are really in touch and aware of what turns their girl or their woman or their wife on, it’s a no-brainer of what you’re going to do.


You know her so well you know exactly the type of flowers, the type of meal, the type of dessert, and the type of lovemaking that she would really enjoy with you on this special day.


But if you’re not that tuned in don’t worry I’m here to help you.


Come up with a list of options, in writing, and leave it for her on the bed in the morning at least a few days before Valentine’s Day so she has time to think and then make her choices:


Honey here is four options I’d like you to choose from so that I can worship you as the woman I love on Valentine’s Day.


  • Would you like a full body massage with hot oil?
  • Would you like me to make dinner and to bring it into bed so that we can feed each other in a romantic way and then make love?
  • Would you like me to shop online or at one of the intimate stores in town, and pick out some new lingerie for you or maybe even a sexual toy that we’ve talked about but I’ve never used before?
  • Or, would you like me to draw you a hot bath, a hot bubble bath so you can fully relax before we have dinner and make love that night?


So this year, instead of asking her what she wants to do, you’re going to give her multiple options and if the options above don’t work for you that’s not a problem at all, sit down, take a big breath, and write out other options that you know your lover would really enjoy.


There are so many different things that you can do to turn your partner on, to show them how much you love them, and the above are just a few tips to get you started, to get you thinking, in order to make this Valentine’s Day so much richer, so much more intimate than maybe those in the past.


And don’t let the pandemic stop you in your tracks!

Even though I’ve been in this industry counseling people on sex, addiction, and porn addiction for 45 years, we have never seen the increase of these two addictions, and they can be quite different, that we’ve seen over the past five years. Porn addiction hijacks the brain, and it makes it very difficult to stay in any type of a committed relationship, because individuals become so used to the constant variety and changing of the different fetishes as well as body types and experiences that the Internet offers up even for free! SEX Addiction, when we’re talking about an individual that must have multiple partners, or someone that even forces their partner to have sex more than maybe the partner wants, it can be a completely different ball game in regard to treatment and recovery. And that’s because of the emotional involvement that many people get into when they have a sex addiction with real people, where that doesn’t happen as frequently if someone is addicted to porn, they may like certain porn actors or actresses, but they don’t create an emotional bond. But as I mentioned above, porn, addiction is nothing to take simple or easy, I have multiple clients right now in their late 20s that started their porn addiction at the age of 10 and even though they have wonderful partners they can’t have sex on a regular basis because they cannot keep an erection due to their craving for variety versus just being with one person. Every Addiction, we treat in a very similar way which might sound surprising, even our new book on permanent alcohol and life recovery, we use most of that information in that book with people who are addicted to sex or porn or food or social media or video games… I think you get the idea so many addictions when we get into treatment are treated in a very similar fashion. First we find the origin of the addiction, which means when did it start, why did it start, how did it start, and how long has it been going on? And we treat the whole person not just the Addiction part of it, because we want the whole person to gain that self-confidence back and self-love, which we lose when we’re involved with any addiction whatsoever. If you’re struggling with porn or sex addiction, go ahead and look at our permanent addiction, recovery page, study deeply study this page and that should give you some good ideas and how we approach all addictions. In 2024, the top addictions that we are working with of course are sex and porn, food, alcohol, pot and social media addiction. The addictions continue to rise in this country and until we get to the origin, which we do our practice, and then add solution steps, so people will not cross addict, or relapse, we have answers for everything. Here is a quote from a woman that I worked with several years ago who never thought she’d be able to break her sex and porn addiction as she was struggling with both. "David shared with me information that was so deep, I had no idea the difference between the porn addiction I had or the addiction I had with phone sex, or with men in general. It was a way for me to escape reality, my work demands a lot of hours, and I was using my sex and porn addiction as a way to give myself a break, sort of like a reward for all the hours I worked. However, it almost cost me my job as I started showing up late on a regular basis because I wanted to get one more orgasm at home before I left for work .” She is now free of both addictions and has been for over 15 years after going through our program. I know you’ll find the same success regardless of what type of sex or porn addiction you’re struggling with right now. Never give up! I will be by your side showing you the way, to complete freedom.
