Summer Lunches

Summer lunches seem to be a little more light then the ones we eat during the winter or colder months. Sliced turkey, chips and cottage cheese are my normal summer lunch. However to create a lunch that is acceptable and light you might start keeping more fresh fruit around. There is something about having a nice juicy piece of fruit available on a hot summer day that just explodes with romantic. Grapes or Oranges are some of the juiciest fruits you can find but there are so many others. By having these around and ready whenever the mood hits you, not only will you be getting healthier but you will also look like the romantic person you are. Another great way to make summer lunches more special is to eat outside. Make it a picnic or eat on the patio furniture and if you have to go to a restaurant then pick on that has seating outside. Not only will you be able to converse more easily but you will also benefit from the wonderful sunshine. These early days of summer are the best days to be outside and enjoy the sun, your partner, and the romance that summer brings.

Comfort is a key to romance

Romance comes in all shapes and sizes. While someone might thing that snuggling down on the couch is romantic another might think that is not romantic. The one thing that seems to be reacquiring in romance is comfort. When you feel comfortable you are able to open up more and receive the romance the other person is giving. Now comfort doesn't mean that you use a lot of pillows and soft cushions. Comfort is a sense of well being or safety and when you reach that point the romance will flow like a river. Keys to getting comfortable are things like honesty and integrity. Your partner needs to know how you are going to react to things. You can't be calm and collected during a big situation then blow your top when something little happens. Your partner has to understand what pushes your buttons. Once you reach a level that is reassuring to both of you the comfort will surround you and make you feel safe. That my friends is when your romance will erupt.

Cheese a romantic snack?

We don't usually think of Cheese as a romantic snack. However when you put a little bit of crackers and wine with it you change the whole image. Now cheese becomes a treat of the wealthy and higher class. Even though all of these items might be from you local discount store. Once you take them out of the package no one knows. Next time the two of you sit down to watch a movie, instead of cooking a bag of microwave popcorn make a small cheese tray and open up a bottle of wine. It might seem upper class while watching a rented movie but heck it is romantic!!!!!

Yoga is sexy and good for you.

Yoga is fast making a return to the main stream as people are trying to find that connection with their inner self. With the economy in bad shape people are looking for anything to get them connected with a higher power. Yoga is a combination between exercise and muscle control and meditation. Exercising your mind and your body at the same time. Talk about a romantic thing to do together. Increasing your spirituality while you work your body is a win win situation. With yoga becoming more and more popular you can find videos, books and even podcast all over the place. Yoga has many different faces also so take some time that allows the two of you to find a form that fits the two of you. One of my favorite things to do is to breath together. Getting your breath in sync allows the two of you to reach a deeper connection. Plus yoga clothes are sexy, so control yourself until after you perform you meditation and exercise, then you can marvel at how wonderful your partner looks in the lotus position.

Give and Take!

Everyone knows that romance is a give and take situation. The problems come in when the balance begins to get lopsided. One partner is doing more giving and the other is doing more taking. We all want to enjoy the romantic efforts of our partner it feels great. However, there are wonderful feelings in doing things for them as well. Think about how you feel when your partner does something romantic for you? Shouldn't they get the same feeling returned to them? If this is not your train of thought then you need to start retraining yourself. Unmatched romance soon becomes a chore to the person being romantic. They will start to loose interest and start thinking things like "Why, should I do this it won't be appreciated?" Think about how your react to your partner do you expect them to be the one that buys flowers all the time, or sets up wonderful evenings for the two of you. If your not pulling your weight in your relationship then it is your partner that is suffering not you. Now if you love your partner and want them to be happy there is no time like the present to take action. Return all their romantic notions with ones of your own. Make it a challenge to yourself to return every serve they make and soon you might just find the wonderful joy you will have in yourself and how thankful you are that your partner loves you.

Love like there is no tomorrow!

The one thing I hear so often from people that have lost their spouse or partner, is this, "If I would have known I would have done this differently" Don't let this fall into chance. If you love your partner like it might be your last day together then you won't have any regrets if something happens. Sure not all the time you feel like dancing and singing but you can still treat your partner with respect, care and concern. Don't put off things, get the words "I don't feel like it" out of your vocabulary and start enjoying the love you have today. Tomorrow is never promised and it can all be taken away so quickly. Don't put yourself in a place of regret, kiss each other passionately as you leave for work, laugh at things together, worry about each other, and touch often. I don't want to be morbid on my blog but we don't get second chances very often and I would hate to think in my mind if my lover passed, why we didn't do more things together, instead I would love to remember the great memories we built together.
