Ah, Valentine’s Day! Due to its manufactured "specialness" we try hard to be on our best behavior (never mind that once the obligatory gifts have been exchanged we’re back to our old February 15 habits). But this holiday shines a light on what we think great relationships are about—and how far off the mark we really are.

There are so many misconceptions around romance, and they’re on full display on Valentine’s Day. Flowers and gifts and fancy meals are nice, but they can’t make up for a lack of deep connection and thoughtful focus on your spouse.
