Psst.. not to burst your bubble, but you're just as much a foreigner as
she is. So cut that out and go do something nice for your wife. :)
Of course. That does not diminish the effectiveness of the technique in
the least. The problems start of course when you share some V-Day
equivalent in your native culture (e.g. March 8 for us). At that point I
usually bring up the "When in Rome..." saying. :o)
