Romance is integral to human relations because it allows us to enjoy love and connection and share appreciation. However, with people’s busy lives, romance usually takes a back seat, leading to relationships that lack spark. This is where Creative Romance Month comes in. It’s celebrated in February and allows people to be affectionate to their loved ones. Here is what Creative Romance Month is all about.
Origins of Creative Romance Month
Creative Romance Month was designed to allow couples to express love. This expression doesn’t have to come through grand gestures, as is often with Valentine’s Day. Instead, it’s supposed to be a heartfelt expression of thoughtfulness and intentionality.

Reflect on Your Relationship
Take time to see what is working and not working in your relationship. Talk about them and how you can improve on them. This is also the time to evaluate their behaviours with your partner, what they can stop doing, and what they can do better.
Explore New Hobbies
It’s the best time to be vulnerable and go for something both of you are novices at or haven’t done before. For example, dancing classes, language lessons, or photography.
