情人节上,这样的甜言蜜语,有人跟你说过吗?

今天是元宵节,古时也是恋人们相会的节日。而一年一度的情人节(Valentine's Day)就要来临,这个起源于西方的充满宗教革命色彩的纪念日,如今已经发展成为全世界范围内的爱情大节(打劫)!

  • 对于已经爱人相伴的幸福一族来说,这是个再次见证和加深彼此真爱的绝佳时刻;

  • 对于仍是孤身一人的单身一族来说,这是个再次寻找和俘获此生真爱的绝好机会。

也许你什么都准备好了,但只差最后的那口气——向心爱的人,倾诉最动听、最醉心的爱的甜言蜜语!

趁着还有几天时间,赶紧从下面的珠玑妙语中选几个中意的,该背的背,该写的写,务必确保到时没有刻意准备的痕迹,而要让对方在头晕目眩中深切地体会到:这就是你的真情流露!哈哈!

这些甜言蜜语不太好汉译,也不建议汉译,所以我就加了点“感悟”——不是译文,取名“原来”,惟愿能够化作各位爱情旅程中的一滴甘泉!
