Magnify The Romance

Sometimes we really miss a romantic gesture by our partner.  We can overlook it and not give it the attention it needs.  Simple things like saying thank you or please are great ways to showing your partner how much you really appreciate them.  These romantic gestures are sometimes as simple as your partner making sure you get up on time, or letting you take your shower first.  We can easily get int he habit of overlooking these expressions of love and romance.  With that said get our your magnifying glass and start looking for what you are missing.

Good Night Call

Unfortunately in our society sometimes we don't get to go to bed at the same time.  I feel that one of the most important things to ending our day is the good night kiss.  How can you achieve this special end of the day if your not together.  A simple quick call to say good night is a simple solution.  Take the time before you lay down to let your partner know you thinking about them.  If possible give them a quick call to say I love you and good night.  If you can't call them, then send them a quick text stating that you are going to bed and really miss them.  This simple little thing can go a long way to strengthening your relationship.

Crazy Sexual Positions

We are all told as a couple that one way to spice up our love life is to try a new position.  I agree with that statement, however some of the books I have seen that promote this philosophy are really just crazy.  For starters some of them you have to be a yoga master to achieve the desired position.  You also must be a power lifter for some of these positions.  I think the most exciting part of looking through these books is getting a laugh at them because they are physically impossible to achieve.  Really how many couples do you know that couple have sex while planking.  Change up your angle, use some pillows, experiment a little but don't try some sexual position that might end you up in the hospital.  Although playing doctor might be fun ;-)

Wine, Sunset and Romance

Okay I know it sounds a little cliche, but wine, a good sunset does sound very romantic.  When is the last time the two of you actually just sat together sipping a drink and talking like you did when you were dating.  My beautiful partner and I did this just the other day, and I realized that we don't do it enough.  In our relationship and lives we are constantly changing so we need to take this time to get to know our partner over and over again.

So get some wine, watch the sunset, and enjoy the romance.

Dressing Up or Dressing Down?

When we go out as a couple we try to match the feeling with each other.  If one of us dresses up the other usually tries to match the look by dressing up also.  The same goes for when you dress down the other partner doesn't want to look all stiff.  Here is the question I present before you, who in your relationship dictates the style of dressing?  The stereo-type is that it is the female partner in the relationship.  However in today's society that is not always the case, for starters same sex couples don't have that obvious distinction.  So, again I ask the two of you who sets the fashion when you go out.  You might just find this interesting. 

Heart Shape Your Grilling

Creating heart shaped food for your grill might take a bit more time that normal.  However the reaction your lover will give you for the extra time is well worth the effort.   This simple burger created to look like a heart will score big with your sweaty unless of coarse he/she is vegetarian.  However you can create salads with hearts or just use heart shaped plates.  The signs will be evident that your grill was filled with love.
