"Thinking of You" Notes

• Purchase "Thinking of You" notes or make your own to send to a significant other's workplace, pack in a lunch or mail. Mailings work for those in a long-distance relationship or for significant others away on business. Handmade card ideas include using images of favorite movie characters, musicians or actors, which can include thought bubbles featuring humorous phrases. Ideas for what to write in such cards include what you love about the person or something that made you think of the person, prompting the card making.
  
  

Small Treat Baskets

• A significant other who is going through a difficult time at work, is looking for a job or is dealing with other issues such as family emergencies will appreciate small treat baskets filled with favorite candies and baked goods. Look for sweets and treats the person loves but are hard to find or are expensive. Order them online or from specialty stores. Include cards with such baskets, such as those that read "Thought you might need a sweets break" or similar phrase.
  
  

Chores

• If she always cleans the apartment on Saturday morning, let her sleep in while you complete household chores. Clean the kitchen, bathroom, vacuum, do dishes and dust, though she will appreciate any other chores you choose to do. If she sets an alarm you can turn it off so she does not wake up while you work. When she does wake up, surprise her with breakfast in bed, such as waffles and berries with juice.
  
  

Favorite Meals

• Cook a favorite meal for a significant other, which is a small, sweet gesture he will love, especially if finding your way around a kitchen is a bit difficult for you. Plan multi-course meals including the person's favorite appetizer, soup and salad, entree and dessert. Those who lack baking skills can purchase the person's favorite desserts or take him out to a favorite dessert shop or ice cream parlor. Adding the person's favorite wine or beer to the menu is also a possibility.
