Ten
Starter Tips for Romance Every Day of the Year
by : Lorraine Lamont
Wondering
how to be romantic and creative with your partner or date?
Perhaps you are single and interested in dating someone and
want to show your interest. Maybe you are in a committed relationship
and feeling burdened by work and don’t have time nor the funds
to whip up a second honeymoon. Either way, you care about your
partner and would like to show it, but may not have a clue
as to what you should be doing. Good news! I am here to provide
some romantic suggestions that work for both genders. Once
you read a few, you’ll be able to come up with your own ideas – inexpensive,
more original than flowers, more memorable than a Rolex – and
suitable for every day of the year.
1. Grocery
shopping for dinner with a new date? Remember what he or she
likes, then plan to have some of the same items on hand for
your next visit. Hold hands at the checkout counter.
2. In a
traffic jam? Even if you two are simply waiting for the light
to change in the car or crossing the street, lean over and
give a kiss. You’ll get a smile a response.
3. Busy
schedule? Meet your mate at the door with his/her slippers,
bathrobe, and a soothing drink.
3a. Same
as number 3, but add wearing your own slippers, bathrobe, etc.
4. Little
spontaneous notes can be packed in with lunches, placed near
the coffee pot, left on a pillow, even taped to the bathroom
mirror.
5. Always
unlock the car door for your partner. If you are the driver,
open the passenger door first. If you are seated in the car,
reach over and unlock the other door.
6. Can’t
afford a romantic getaway? Enjoy a cozy evening at home – just
the two of you - and PLAN one. There is much fun to be had
in the planning. You’ll see.
7. Call
him/her when you witness or think of something funny during
your day. (Note: don’t have a cell phone? It is time to get
one.)
8. Share
a picnic. If the weather isn’t cooperating, spread a blanket
and big, fluffy pillow on the living room floor and have a
picnic there!
9. At least
once a day, find a reason to thank your partner. Whether it
is for taking you on a date, taking out the garbage, being
your best friend, or simply just for making you smile, say
thank you.
10. Sit
or play outside together. It doesn’t have to be a sunset cruise
to be memorable. You don’t have to climb Mt. Everest for excitement.
Let nature take its course. It is easy as gazing at the stars.
The above covers only a fraction of the possibilities. It should, however,
be enough to get you started. Try a few. You’ll find that you come up with
your own ideas easily. Best of all, your relationship will stay fresh and
be enhanced as well. So, let’s get creative, shall we? Here’s to your romance!
