Q: "I've been dating this woman for
a while now and I think we've got a good relationship thing
going on. Problem is that recently the whole idea of romance
has been popping up. I blame those notions on her trashy novels.
Anyway she wants me to be more romantic but she won't give
me any clues. I'm a guy I don't know what romantic is except
for maybe dinner and flowers? Could you give me some ideas
or advice on romantic things I could do for her?"
A: "There are many little things that
you can do for your girlfriend that may seem normal to us
but romantic to her. Women do seem to have a lot of romantic
notions and you should actually take advantage of them to
score points for yourself! A little effort could earn you
a great night in bed. Some of my favorite romantic things
to do are listed below. Feel free to customize some of my
relationship advice and romantic tips because your girlfriend
may have different tastes than mine."
Out of the blue, call to say that you
were just thinking of her. If you can't get through,
send her a text message or a voice mail with a sweet or
seductive note.
Pick up one of her favorite snacks or
sweets on your way home from work. She'll be pleasantly
surprised that you remembered! To you something like this
is pretty small and simple, but it's pretty romantic to
her.
Leave her a sweet, romantic note
attached to chocolate or candy. Leave it somewhere
that isn't too obvious but you know she'll bump into it
fairly soon.
Head to the shop to buy her a romantic
card and pop it in the mail! A lot of women I know enjoy
getting snail mail.
Just voicing out your thoughts can seem
terribly romantic to her. You know those times where you're
suddenly thinking sweet things about her? Instead of just
thinking them, say them out loud and she'll love you for
it. Girls love to discover how the man's mind works so just
a glimpse pleases them tremendously.
Whether she likes dancing or not, learn
to dance and then play romantic music and dance together.
Slowly dancing around the room to a favorite song is a very
romantic thing to do, especially is she knows how much effort
you took into learning how to dance just for her.
Helping her out with her chores may not
seem terribly romantic but it will pay off later in the
day because it frees up more time for you to spend with
one another . She'll also get romantic notions of
you because you're willing to help her out with trivial
things like doing the dishes.
A single flower is cheap to buy but can
be very romantic to a girl with the right card and the right
note. Women enjoy random gifts like this because it means
that you are thinking of her. Just be warned that
you shouldn't do this too often or she will come to expect
it.
Not just a romantic thing to do but
a great piece of relationship advice, do something you may
not want to, simply because it is important to her. This
can be anything from attending a show or an event to doing
a chore, giving up a bad habit or just trying something
new. Find out what is important to her and make it happen.
Give your girlfriend a massage. It's
a very romantic thing to do and can lead to so much more
later.
