| WHAT TO WATCH | | | Sex Education — Banging With Heart. This second season is not only better than the first, it’s a perfect V-Day binge watch. Though set in Britain, this high school rom-com with a progressive and original edge owes a lot of its visual aesthetic to American high school films. | SUGGESTED BY: /OZY Fan |
| Creep 2 — The Horror of Love. Not everyone’s into standard boy-meets-girl rom-coms. If that describes you, try this found-footage scary movie that actually borrows a lot from romantic movies and builds a credible romance between its leads. You can also watch the first Creep movie, but it’s not so relationshippy. | SUGGESTED BY: /Unconventional Romantic |
| Imagine You and Me — Romantic Vacation. This Filipino film pairs actors Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza, referred to collectively as AIDub, who play star-crossed lovers cavorting around Italy. The real-life supercouple doesn’t stop with acting, though: Mendoza also wrote the film’s earworm theme song. | SUGGESTED BY: /Mad for Love |

| WHAT TO LISTEN TO | | | Jules and James — No, YOU Hang Up. This fiction podcast will snag the attention of anyone who loves the Before Sunrise movies (so … everyone?). It follows a British filmmaker and the American living in Paris she accidentally calls — and then can’t stop talking to. The story is told through their long, lingering phone calls, and slow burns through the awkwardness to an absolutely killer romance. | SUGGESTED BY: /In Her Feelings |
| Where Should We Begin — Sound Advice. Couples therapist Esther Perel gets down and dirty with a supercharged version of a relationship advice column. She gets couples to bare their souls about their issues … which could just end up helping listeners who have similar stumbling blocks, or just entertain the heck out of everybody. | SUGGESTED BY: /Always Listening |

| WHERE TO GO | | | Lil’ Deb’s Oasis — Food for the Heart. Whether you’re in a couple or not, please find the time to get to Lil’ Deb’s in upstate New York. It’s a quirky, tropical, female-chef-run paradise — exactly the kind of place you want to go on a first date, because even if the conversation stops and starts, the restaurant itself gives you a lot to talk about. Not on a date? No problem: The menu even lists “love advice” as something you can order for $1 (or free if you just ask!). And in our experience, the advice is even good, which is truly all one can ask from a meal out. | SUGGESTED BY: /Ordering In |

| | | | | | Give up on love. A seven-year-old boy diving at Idaho’s Trinity Hot Springs found a silver ring at the bottom of a pool — and when the resort checked its records for wedding rings recently reported lost, nothing came up. After they posted about the find on Facebook, though, a woman came forward with photos of the wedding ring she lost at the hot springs in the late 1970s, which was confirmed to be the same ring. | SOURCE:
