And all these rituals - tender, strange, touching - say one thing: I love you.

Let's take a walk around the world together and see how different cultures express love.

💕 Japan: feelings in half tones
In a country where emotions are often hidden, love is a delicate matter.
It is not customary to express feelings violently here, but there are special rituals:

Exchanging bento - homemade lunch boxes. If a girl cooks a guy lunch and decorates it with cute details - it's like a whole novel in a box.

"Giri Choko" and "Honmei Choko" - on Valentine's Day, women give men chocolate. Regular chocolate - to friends and colleagues, and "real" chocolate - only to their beloved.

And a month later, on March 14, men reciprocate on "White Day".

💍 India: bracelets, hennas and promises
Love in India is not only feelings, but also symbols:

Mehndi - henna painting on the bride's body. The darker the pattern, the stronger the husband's love (so they say).

Wedding "mangalsutra" - a necklace that the husband puts on his wife. This is not just jewelry - it's like a ring, only for the neck.

And, of course, dancing. Here, love is danced. Literally. In films, at weddings, on the streets - brightly, emotionally, passionately.

🍚 South Korea: Romance on a Schedule
Koreans are masters of romantic rituals:

Couple Day — the 14th of each month is dedicated to love. February 14 is Men's Day, March 14 is Women's Day, May 14 is Roses, June 14 is Kisses, and so on.

Paired items — from T-shirts to underwear. If a couple wears the same items, it's a sign: we're together.

And, of course, selfies with food and kisses are a must. Even love here comes "in a package" with Instagram 💋

🇮🇹 Italy: Passion and Symbolism
Italians are experts in "amorah" with lots of gestures and big words.

Love locks — lovers hang them on bridges and throw the key into the water. One lock — one story.

Letters to Juliet — in Verona, you can leave a letter about your love at Juliet's house. Even volunteers from the Juliet Secretariat will answer it.

And, of course, candlelit dinners, hugs, dancing in the streets — when it comes to love, Italians have no stop words.

💃 Latin America: dancing is a confession
In Brazil, Argentina, Colombia — feelings are not hidden. They are lived. With body and soul:

Tango and samba — here love is danced. Eye contact, rhythm, passion. No words are needed.

Valentine's Day — June 12 — on this day people give letters, gifts and promises.

And here it is easy to say: "Te amo" — and you will hear it before "hello".

🌍 And in each culture — love is its own, but real
Somewhere love is shy, somewhere it laughs, somewhere it is silent, and somewhere it screams.
But everywhere — it is about care. About attention. About saying: "You are important to me."

Because anywhere in the world, when the heart chooses another, it always learns to say:
I love you, even if in another language.
