Romance

Keeping Romance in Every Day Living

Touch is a very important communicator. As you walk through a room, reach out and simply touch your partner. Simply brush your hand across a cheek, pause a moment with your hand on a shoulder, stroke their hair. Touch conveys warmth, caring and love without saying a word.

SMILE a lot...

Little hand written notes left on the pillow, in a pocket, tucked in a lunch, placed in a drawer, even stuck to the steering wheel or mirror of the car telling your partner how special they are.

Remember flirting? You flirted a little (okay so maybe you didn't) to capture their attention. Flirt with your partner on occasion. It's fun!

Hug your someone at least 6 times a day. Hugging lets them and you know someone is there, they care, life and moments are shared.

Be spontaneous! Don't wait for an anniversary or special occasion....got an idea or inspiration for romance? Go with it!Take a walk together..just enjoy each other's company.

Enjoy a slow dance in the living room or in the moonlight when all is quiet late at night.

Make use of the internet and email. You can send just quick "thinking of you" emails or messages, a greeting card just because. Some of the most romantic and cherished "love letters" are emails from the one you love.
Have an answering machine or voice mail? Leave short messages for your partner. Some voice mail boxes allow the set up of individual boxes. Set one up for each person, that way you can leave more personal messages without the kids or anyone else listening.
With text mesaging now on cell phones....make use of it. A simple I love u....you look great...anything nice to remind them you are thinking of them....:-)
