As Valentine's Day approaches, many begin to think about romance and how to celebrate it, often in ways that feel traditional or narrowly defined. The author questions the typical representations of romance in media, which often focus on heterosexual couples and idealized happiness. This limited portrayal can leave others feeling excluded or indifferent about the occasion.

The article suggests that there is a broader understanding of romance that includes people in different relationship statuses, whether they are single, newly in love, or feeling frustrated with their partner. The author proposes that the celebration of love and relationships should be more inclusive and diverse, encouraging everyone to find their own way to enjoy the occasion.

To assist with this, the article includes wine recommendations by Ingvild Tennfjord, promising to provide options that can enhance any romantic experience, regardless of one's personal feelings toward Valentine's Day. This approach aims to foster a more open and generous view of love and celebration, allowing for a wider variety of experiences and sentiments during this romantic holiday.
