Valentine’s Day.

Valentine’s day can be the perfect excuse to spoil your loved one and really show how much you care.

But what if things aren’t so rosy in the relationship garden?  The heart shaped hype can pile on the pressure and the cracks can begin to show.

All types of feelings can come rushing to the surface and not necessarily the ones you’re sold by the endless adverts of couples cooing at each other lovingly or leaping on each other passionately.

This can be a lonely time of year with or without a partner. You may feel sad, angry or have feelings of loss, pining after a time when you were more connected with a loved one.

Expectations can be dashed and disappointment ensue if you don’t have a floral display, to have other’s swoon with envy, delivered to your place of work. Whilst if the efforts you have made go unnoticed it can leave you feeling flat, invisible, unappreciated.

There can be a lot of pressure to perform sexually at this time of year but what if those scattered rose petals resemble thorns to you? Poor communication can create a distance between you make it difficult to connect emotionally and physically.
