Showing your special guy that you care doesn't have to involve fancy dinners or pricey gifts. Everybody's a little budget-conscious these days and there's no reason why a romantic Valentine's Day together should break the bank. Here are some simple, romantic, sexy and effective ways to show your man you love him.

1. Give him a full-body massage.

2. Create a bubble bath, light candles...and hop in with him!

3. Make him his very favorite dish (or, when all else fails, go for some steak!)

4. Give him a list of "10 Reasons Why I Love You."

5. Surprise him with some lingerie...or better yet, nothing at all.

7. Send him sexy, sweet texts throughout the day.

8. Bake him a cake (even from a box) and write a romantic message in frosting. Try Devil's Food chocolate cake, chocolate frosting with red letters!

9. Print a bunch of pics of the two of you together and put them in a small album as a gift, or get in touch with your creative side and make a scrapbook.

10. Go to a park and watch the sunset together.

14. Make him breakfast in bed.

15. Do the chores he hates doing that day (ie. washing dishes, taking the trash out).
