These are some of my most romantic things.


In response to our question of the most romantic things to do, we got just votes on three of our suggestions all getting the same amount of votes were Bubble Bath, Walk on the Beach and Weekend Getaways. All threes are very romantic and should make anyone happy to do. We all know that anything can be romantic if you are with the right person, so don’t hold yourself to what you read here. Find your own romantic thing and let us know all about it. You can email your ideas to romanticantics@gmail.com

Results of our Poll



The results of our pole on what you find sexy is in.


60% of our viewers responded that undergarments such as boxers, lingerie, and bra and panties were the sexiest things people could wear.

20% thought that just your normal day clothing was the sexiest

5% thought that role play clothing was hot.

5% thought that just being naked was the hottest!

This goes to show us that people that view Romantic Antics for Men (and Women, too), like a little mystery in their sex life. They don't want sexy outfits thrust into their faces. These stats also show that they like to have their partner dressed up in a little package for them like a present. Unwrapping those presents are oh so nice.

Get off the path!




If you like to take walks, you sometimes find yourself going over the same ways every time. The next time you take a walk get off the path. Don't follow your same routine get out and explore your neighborhood if it is safe. Walk through the grass, go places that you haven't been to before and enjoy the fresh air and scenery. We all get stuck in our normal routines and this is a great way for the two of you to break out and experience something new together. Drive to a different city and get out and walk their downtown area. Window shop or just find a little place and see what it has to offer. The point is you are doing this together and that is the romantic part.

Figure out Likes and Dislikes


One thing that is very important to a relationship, is getting to know each other. Start today, if you haven't already, a mental list of your partners likes and dislikes. When you got to a restaurant pay attention to what type of entree they order. Is it chicken, beef, pork, or vegetarian. Knowing their preference scores big points in the romance department. This doesn't just apply to food. Get to know their likes and dislikes in everything. Which team is their favorite, what type of alcohol do they like, what brand of clothes do they prefer, the list goes on and on. Now the only thing you need to understand is these preferences can change over time. For example, you partner might enjoy beef at one point in their life, then switch to being a vegetarian during another point. If you serve them beef after they become a vegetarian you might get a raised eyebrow.


One word of caution, if you have something you really enjoy don't assume that they will enjoy it as much as you.  You cannot make someone have the same passion for what you enjoy.  For example I enjoy going to baseball games and while my wife enjoys it also she doesn't have the same passion for it I do.  She will tolerate it but doesn't have to be there.  She could find many other things she would enjoy doing herself.  Once you figure out some of you partners likes and dislikes you now are faced with the challenge of making sure you both get to enjoy things you like.  As long as you share these feelings you will have no problems.  Just like anything in a relationship it is give and take.  I like to say it is sharing, that sounds a lot better.

Now let me pull a rabbit out of my hat..


Here is an idea to help the two of you decide what to do. One day get together and put all the things you like to do down on slips of paper. Make one pile for places to eat, one for things to do, and one for intimacy levels. The first pile of place to eat should be a complete list of places you have eaten in the past year. The second pile should be a complete list of thing you love to do weather together or not. The third pile is the intimacy level and it should include four different cards. The first should say low level intimacy, the second warm level intimacy, the third hot level intimacy and the fourth should say steamy intimacy.


Next find, or go purchase and item such as a hat to mix the papers up in. Now the next time either one of you says "What do you want to do" head over to your hats and draw one paper from each hat. First one will tell you where to go eat that night, the second will obviously tell you what you will be doing, and the third will tell you the intimacy level you will be having this night.


In the intimacy department I would like to clarify my feelings on the levels. You can set your own but hers is my take. Low level would be taking a walk holding hands, maybe a night out slow dancing, usually low levels of intimacy would take place in public. Warm level intimacy to me would be snuggling down on the couch, kissing, building a fire and enjoying some wine in front of it. Now with the hot level we would begin to incorporate sex into our equation. Hot level to me would include slowly making love to each other, romantic naked massages, and passionate kisses. Once we hit the steamy level their are no holds bard, to me this includes, role play, maybe a little bondage, oral sex, and of coarse trying some different positions. Again you can set your own levels. Just make sure they hit all levels of intimacy.


Now here is the kicker once you pick a paper out it cannot go back into the mix until the hat is empty. No exceptions, you have to experience all the levels to truly appreciate all of them.

Time to think?


Here is an exercise to get you thinking about your partner. Set a time at the beginning of day and when the clock reaches that time here what I want you to do. I want you to think about the most special thing your partner has done for you. Did they throw you a surprise party on your last birthday, did they buy you flowers for no reason, or cook you supper on a night you were tired. Maybe this thought is of how they helped you when you lost a loved one, or how they take care of the children so you can get some rest. I am sure if you start thinking you can come up with thousands of reasons to smile about your partner.


Now I know you and your partner at sometimes do something that might not make the other feel great. So thinking about them in a positive manner will help diminish those thoughts. We all can't be perfect and if we were the world would be a pretty boring place. So tonight honor your partner for these special things they do and let them pick the movie or you fix dinner for them. Just make sure they know you appreciate them. Appreciation goes a long way in a relationship and sometimes we overlook it.

Romance Game


Here is a simple game of romance. Take turns telling each other what you feel is romantic. Be it places to go, or just things to do together. Start out slow maybe saying "I think the most romantic place in the world is...." Then the next person says their feelings on the subject. Elaborate on each output and tell why you thing it would be romantic. This is a great way to get to know your partner better. You would think you would only have to play this game once. Well I am here to tell you, that you should make a point to play it at least a couple of times a year. People change and as we get older so do our needs and wants. So at 18 I might think making love on the beach would be the best thing ever. Now that I am old I think about the sand and where it would end up. Nothing is set in stone, make notes but use a pencil as the changes happen.
