Hey Reddit,

I'm reaching out to this amazing community because I want to create something truly special for my girlfriend. We've been through some tough times lately, circumstances beyond our control, which have a high impact on our relationship and it may end up separating us, even though we love each other so much. I want to remind her every day of how much she means to me, whether that happens or not.

She was always fascinated by the fact that I am a programmer. And like most programmers, I have the technical skills, but when it comes to creativity, I could use some help. My idea is to create an app that's not necessarily functional, but a reminder of our love story. Picture this: messages that gently fade in and out, as an introduction to the last screen which would be a counter that marks the time since I first fell in love with her — with years, months, and days. I want her to know that our love grows stronger every second. Our relationship hasn't reached the 1 year milestone yet, so I was thinking 'till that happens, I can let her know somehow, maybe a small text somewhere, that this app also counts years, as an encouragement that everything will be ok and we'll be together. I was also thinking about including a visual touch that captures the essence of our relationship. I have bought a bundle of realistic 3D roses from Blender, and I thought about turning the background into video background of roses blooming when the countdown shows up. It's a nod to the times when I used to surprise her with roses, a symbol of our past joys together. I cannot do that anymore due to the situation that we're in.

Being a programmer is one thing, but being romantic and creative is another challenge altogether. I want this app to be a testament to our love, something that she can open and feel a warm embrace from me, no matter where life takes us next, even if we end up breaking up.

I have used Midjourney to generate few ideas and I found some some inspiration. I am attaching the image.

So, Reddit, I'm desperately asking you for any ideas or suggestions you have. Whether it's about the design, the features, or even the smallest details that could make this app unforgettable, I'd love to hear from you. Your creativity could help me create a lasting reminder of our love story.

Thank you all in advance for your help and support! I apologize if this is not a good fit for this community, but I can't think of a better one to seek help from.
