5 Gifts To Help Say Sorry

It’s in times like these when you need to show affection towards your loved one and reassure them your intent is not to hurt them. What better way to show affection than through physical touch. A massage candle is great for helping relax your loved one while at the same time showing affection and the best part…who knows where a good massage can lead 😉

5. Something to Share
Tapping into one of the love languages that Dr. Gary Chapman, well known author for writing many relationship self help books, points to in his famous title The 5 Love Languages, quality time is something that we often crave and when you’re in the position where you’ve screwed up and your spouse/significant other speaks this language, the last thing you’ll want to do is give too much space. Take a look at the items below that you can use with your S.O to enjoy time together this summer.
- Made in the U.S out of honeycomb wood, these beach tennis paddles make a great gift and will without a doubt lead to an enjoyable day at the beach
- No beach nearby, don’t worry, why not head out on a hike with your S.O. Lightweight and with a 48L volume capacity, this pack is great for a day hike or longer excursions away.
- Prefer a night in over an excursion, why not buy your loved one a fine bottle of wine to drink out of these high quality Riedel glasses. Good wine and conversation can be a great cure sometimes.
