Appreciate the fact you lover is working hard.

Sometimes we all have to put in extra time at work. Maybe you work has a busy season or you are working on beating a dead line. When we are in a relationship we need to understand and appreciate our lover for going the extra mile. Having a job to support a relationship is a wonderful way to say I care about this love we have. Putting effort into work, as long as it isn't over the top, shows commitment that you want in your relationship also. When you know these times are coming for your lover then make it easier on them by understanding and making the best of it. If you partner has to work late, stay and and wait for them to come home and meet them at the door with a kiss. If they are working from home make sure all it quiet for them to get the most out of their time. Ask for a break for the two of you to get some time together. Set a time limit on it so as not to delay the work getting done. Lastly reward you partners hard work. If they are fighting to meet a deadline, then give them incentive. Tell them when the project is done you will make mad passionate love to them, or plan a romantic weekend away. Show your partner that they are loved and you appreciate the hard work they put into your relationship and their job as well.

Brown Bag it!

There is no doubt in this time that finances are tough. We all need to squeeze as much as we can out of our fund. One thing that can save you a lot of money is to brown bag it or take your lunch to work. You might be thinking at this point, "How is taking your lunch to work, romantic?" Well it's not but wouldn't you rather use that cash to take your partner to dinner or to buy them a great present? Let your partner know that you are trying to save up for a trip or something special for the two of you and I am sure they will help you pack your lunch a time or two. Depending on where you live not purchasing lunch out could save you as much as seven or eight dollars a day. Start adding that up and see how quickly you might get to the cruise. Another benefit is that you can eat a little more healthy and not as much. Not only are you saving for something special for you and your sweety but you are also improving your health and possibly losing some weight. Now when people make fun of you at work and ask if you mom packed your lunch, don't get mad, just think of them when you are enjoying your reward.

Award your partner. (Click Here for Awards)

Does your partner deserve an award? I think if you look at your relationship, you will find something that your partner does great. When you find it reward her is a special loving cup. In the title line of this post is a link to a trophy place that has awards for as little as $5. Once you have found just the right award then have it engraved to show your partner your appreciation. Some suggestions might be "Awarded to the person who makes me laugh", "Presented to the person who puts up with my collection of beer cans" or "1st Place winner of all my love". Make it personal and make it a big deal when you present it to her. I don't think you need to call the media, but maybe a little applauds from you would be nice.

Lather her with riches. (Click here to find luxury soaps)

During one of your shopping sprees take some time to find a really high quality soap. Not your normal soaps you pick up at the local discount store. Find the ones that might be a lot higher in price but are suppose to be excellent for you skin. I have added a link at the top of the page that might help you out. Present her with the high end soap before her next bath or shower. Tell her that you want only the best to be placed on her body. After she showers make sure to take some time to caress her skin and tell her how great it feels. Nothing makes a woman feel more special then pampering her a little bit. Experiment a little and find out what she like and dislikes for future purchases.

Some words of warning make sure not to pick up something she might be allergic to, that will really kill the thought. Don't be afraid to ask a sales person to help sometimes as a man we don't particular think the same when we pick out soaps as our partner does. A woman's input will help you out.

Just Desserts (Click her to find out how to make your sweeties favorite dessert)

Everyone loves some kind of dessert. I am sure you probably have an idea of what one is your partners. Next time you get a chance either make it or purchase it as a surprise. You can even leave it for you partner with a note, when you are going to be away. Let the note say something to the effect of "Think of me every time you take a bite". Don't overdue it however we don't want to encourage overeating in any manner. If your partner is trying to diet use their favorite sweet as a reward. You could say okay I got you this delicious treat, but we have to ride 5 miles on our bikes before we can enjoy it. This scores double points as you are worried about your partners health and you want them to have their favorite treat.
