What the hell is wrong with a little more love in the world? Many people seem to react to the upcoming Valentine’s Day like vampires to the sun. Stop hissing! It doesn’t hurt that much.

Single? Why not pass out candy and cards to all your friends, just like in grade school. It’s fun and spreads a little love to those in your life.

Got a date? You should be so lucky! If you’re a real romantic, do something as a couple that will last through time. Last year, thousands in Mexico City puckered their way to a new record when nearly 40,000 people locked lips with their sweeties to beat the world record of simultaneous kisses. Now that’s Muy caliente!

* Make a plan to meet at the top of the Empire State Building: Even if you can’t make it to NYC, make a secret pact to meet somewhere equally clandestine, without making mention of it afterward until you both meet that day.

* Create a lover’s scavenger hunt: Like Easter eggs, except better…little spa gifts, mix CDs, sexy underwear, whatever!

* Treat yourselves to a couple’s massage: Like Argyle here in Hollywood, many top-tier spas offer rooms to double-book with you and a hot date, or BFF.

* Fill the room with flowers: Remember, like in that one time in that movie? You’ve seen it! Make it happen in real life. Your sweetie deserves it, and vice versa (ladies send this article to yo’ man as a hint!)

Whatever you do, put some time into it and don’t half-ass it. Love takes a little effort, y’all.
