Dear Ask Ada,

    So at my old school, we handed out valentines, right? But now we can’t because it’s covid… but I still wanna show my friends that I care. How do I  continue to do it?

Thanks. From,
Empty Valentine

 Dear Empty Valentine,

    First, it’s sweet that you like to give out valentines, and the people around you are fortunate to have a great friend like you. I know that Valentine’s Day is technically in the past by the time you read this, but we can all use some love every day of the year! I have a few tips here that might help you out;
  1. Instead of handing out valentines in class, you can send them in the postal mail! I know that sounds weird and old-fashioned, but it’s perfect for this holiday! There’s no better feeling than receiving a sparkly, decorated envelope with a kind valentine inside. 
  2. Why don’t you deliver it to the friend yourself? It’s a great way to show that you care, and hand-delivery is more personal, which would make the friend feel special, and that’s just what you want.
  3. Instead of doing either of these, maybe find a friend who feels the same way you do, and do a valentines cookie exchange with them. You can even turn it into a fun little competition by seeing who can do the best job decorating!
I hope this advice helped. You can choose to do whatever you want with these ideas. And thanks for the question - you even inspired me to send some valentine’s cards to my friends!

-Ask Ada
