Will you be my Valentine card for your girlfriend, with a No that runs away

The will you be my Valentine page you have seen online, made for her in a minute: her name, two buttons, a No that dodges her finger, and your message waiting behind the Yes. No code, just a link.

Fourteenth of February

Anna

Be my Valentine?

I did not need a date on the calendar to think of you, but I am taking the excuse.

Tap to play

This one is live. Open it before you write a word.

What makes it theirs

  • Keep the question simple; the fun is in the button, the feeling is in the message after the Yes.
  • Plan the evening in the message: once she taps Yes, she should know where you are taking her.
  • You get an email with her answer, so you can send it and wait, or watch her open it.

Happy Valentine’s Day

Fourteenth of February

Anna, will you be my Valentine?

Good choice. Friday, eight o’clock, the little Italian place with the candles. I already booked the corner table.

Yours

An example. Your card is written from the details you type, and you choose from three versions before you pay.

More lines you can borrow

  • I tried to think of a clever way to ask. This button is the best I came up with.
  • You can press No as many times as you like. It will not help.
  • Every year I ask, and every year I hope you say yes. Will you?
  • Yes unlocks dinner, No unlocks nothing. Choose wisely.

Questions

Do I need to know how to code, like the GitHub versions?

No. You type her name and a few details, preview the page and send the link. The runaway No button, the Yes and the message after it are already built.

Will I see what she answered?

Yes. When she taps Yes you get an email, so you know the answer even if she does not text back straight away.
