But there’s no two ways about it: February 14th will be very different this year than it has been in the past. (Thanks a lot, Miss Rona…) What happens when you can’t see the people you want to be with right now? Depending on the lockdown situation you’re living in, you may not be able to see your loved ones as often as you’d like (or at all). And that’s too bad.

But this global pandemic doesn’t have to ruin your Valentine’s Day. There are still plenty of ways to connect with your sweethearts and friends, even if you can’t be together right now. And we’ve got a bunch of ideas that are sure to spice up your love during lockdown this year.

1. Watch a movie

You don’t need a fancy setting to have a good time. Just grab some snacks, choose your movie, sync your screens or count down to press play at the same time, and enjoy a fun night of cinematic adventure.

2. Enjoy a home-cooked meal together

Whether it’s an old recipe or a new one you’ve never tried before, pick a dish and bring your Zoom machine into the kitchen to hang out while you prepare an epic meal in tandem.

If you’re the competitive type, you could even make it a challenge: who presented it best?

3. 20 questions, but make it sexy

What’s something you’ve never tried but would really like to do?

What kind of porn do you like right now?

Have you ever read erotica?

Who gave you “the lecture”?

Where is your favorite place to be touched?

Where’s the craziest place you’ve had sex?

Whether you’re just getting to know each other or you’ve been together for years, there’s always something new to discover about your partner—and yourself!—especially when it comes to sexy things.

4. Attend a virtual show

Since we had to suspend public gatherings, many artists who are passionate about live performances have turned to the virtual stage.

Finding an online concert or show to attend is a great way to support your favorite artist and rock out with someone who loves them as much as you do.

5. Try a long distance toy

Great strides have been made in sex tech in recent years, notably with the development of teledildonics — sex toys that can communicate with each other via the internet.

Toys like the We-Vibe Chorus and this Kiiroo set are designed to pair with a mobile app so you or your partner can control them from anywhere, no matter where you are in the world.

6. Let your eroticism run free

Just because you’re grown up doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a few bedtime stories. a whole library of high quality erotica You can choose from several texts, or you can try writing something yourself. Reading it out loud to your significant other is a great way to get in the mood.

Too nervous to read it yourself? You can always leave it to professionals. Attend an erotic reading as the slam smutathon where top erotica authors (including some from Bellesa!) come together to share their best works with a virtual audience is a great way to kick off your Valentine’s Day weekend.

7. Treat yourself to a new sex toy

I may be biased, but I firmly believe that you can never have too many sex toys. And a couples toy like the Luvli Ditto Or a new strap-on dildo is sure to enhance your IRL reunion.

Of course, you don’t have to be in a relationship to feel love. Up your self-love game with a new vibrator — AirVibe is bae — and give yourself the gift of orgasms any day of the year. Because you deserve it.

8. Sit back and relax

In this hectic time where time seems to have lost all meaning, it’s easy to get lost in the chaos. And honestly, planning something elaborate can be more stressful than exciting for many people right now.

Your Valentine’s Day celebration can be as simple as taking the time to spend time together. Pour yourself a glass of wine or brew a cup of your favorite tea and toast to your good health (very important during a pandemic, especially) and celebrate the fact that even though you can’t be in the same room right now, you have this amazing connection with a cool person who appreciates you too.

9. Watch ethical porn

Again, I may be biased, but watching porn is really great for so many reasons. Not only does it help get the blood flowing in the right direction, but watching with a partner or making a recommendation based on what you like can start conversations about things you might want to try with them.

And when you enjoy your adult movie nights on platforms like Beauty Plusyou can walk away knowing that you contributed to the production and distribution of 100% ethical porn.

10. Send nudes

Just make sure to ask for consent before sending them back!
