You've already picked out the perfect V-Day present and made reservations at your regular tapas place. You know what time you're meeting, what train you're taking, and, most importantly, the iconic outfit you're going to wear for your big night out. As you glance through your phone (read: scrolling through Insta to see everyone else's cute couple pics), you realize you still haven't wished your boo a Happy Valentine's Day yet. And as you start to type out the perfect Valentine's Day text to send your partner, you can't help but smile and think about how much you love them.
Sending your flame a sweet message on V-Day is like the grownup version of giving them a packet of Fun Dip. And while you should never do anything that makes you uncomfortable, sending a spicy text can be a great way to connect with your partner before meeting up IRL. Whether you hit them with a sultry selfie and a message about what you're going to do to them later or list all the reasons you love them, dropping some love in your boo's inbox can be a great way to start the holiday.
Here's the V-Day text your partner will love, based on their zodiac sign.
You can be the boss tonight.
Fire sign Aries likes to call the shots. On Valentine's Day, let your ram know that you're happy to let them take the reins.

Water sign Cancer wants to love and be loved. On Cupid's birthday, they'll live to hear how much they mean to you.
Hi sexy. I'm barely getting any work done because I can't stop thinking about you. I am going to devour you tonight. I'm wearing that red thing.
Fiery Leo loves getting attention. On V-Day, this lion will want nothing more than to be reminded of how much their partner loves them. (And wants to make out with them.)
I hope you've cleared your schedule for the entire night. I am taking you out and have taken care of everything.
Virgo is the person with a plan (as in, they don't leave their house without their planner). On Valentine's Day, they'll feel super cared for if their boo checks in and takes the initiative to prepare a special night.

Though Capricorn tends to be a bit more traditional, they hate feeling like a stick in the mud. Though they've had Valentine's plans for months, they'll enjoy a little levity to lighten the mood.
OK, I'm finally reading that New Yorker article you sent earlier in the week, I see what you mean about it being a bit derivative. I can't wait to hear all your thoughts in person tonight.
Aquarius loves philosophical conversations and sharing their passions with the people they care about. On V-Day, they'll love to hear that their boo read an article or listened to a podcast that they suggested and wants to unpack it further.
