Kiss outside your home!

Something that gets lost in the middle or relationships is the good night kiss. When you move in together or spend a lot of time at each others house, we all seem to move our kisses inside the house. My suggestion is the next time you have an enjoyable evening out you should kiss at the door as kind of an end to a great evening. Even if your are going to have more fun when you get inside, it is a nice statement and an innocent act that makes you think back to the first few times you were together. Think about how romantic it is to kiss under the stars on a warm summer evening, and I think you will definitely feel great about doing it.

Random Act of Kindness

It's time to take some action. Hopefully your relationship is strong and if not, it's time to put that aside for a bit and help someone else. If you look around, I am sure you can find someone not far from you that needs help. The older woman down the street that can't mow her yard very well, the family where both parents are unemployed, or maybe it's just your grandmother that can’t get out to the store very easy. I am sure when you start thinking about it there are several people around you that could use a boost up. Sometimes helping someone else is the best way to help ourselves.

My wife has told me several times about how lucky we are compared to some of the other couples she runs into. I agree with her. Sure there are a lot of things we would like to have, but we don't need them. Go out and do something for someone else with no expectations of a return. I think they call them random acts of kindness. Help someone load his/her groceries in to the car, stop and help someone with a flat tire, clean out your closet and donate all the clothes that you don't wear to charity. If you really think about it, we have an over abundance and it might even seem to others as if we are very rich when we see ourselves as unfortunate.

How can this help my relationship you might ask? Well if you’re asking that question, maybe you’re not ready to complete this activity. You should get a great sense of pride helping other people. That is the reward. Put that into a situation where both of you work together to help someone and you both get that feeling. Sharing that feeling with your partner is worth more money than you could ever make. I would love to hear about the two of you and how you helped someone out, so don't be shy. Share your stories with us.

Remember - sometimes the little things you do are the most appreciated thing you do!

Need input for a dating book

Currently I am working on a book that covers the ins and outs of dating. I would love to hear from my viewers as to what things or places would be great ideas to do on a first date. I am anxious to hear about all your ideas as you feed my interests. I can think of all the things I feel are great ideas but I want to branch out and make sure I hit all areas of the spectrum. On the other hand I would love to hear places that you think would be the worst places for a date. Tell me the most idiotic places that a date has taken you to or the worst restaurants. I will be listening carefully for your replies.

Journal great events in your relationship

Journaling is a great way to remember and sort things out. Why not do this in our relationship also? You can call it a diary but for the men we will call it a journal. Jot down short notes to make you remember things as the happen in your relationship. This such as the first kiss, or experiencing something for the first time are great suggestions. You partner will be amazed when down the road you can remember things about the early part of your relationship. With each entry make sure to include the date and anything that would stand out to you. You can also include things like what both of you were wearing or if your partner looked especially nice on this evening. Write down things that make you love your partner even more, like if they help an old woman cross the street, or just playing with the kids. Then when you partner asks you "Why do you love me" you have plenty of ammo to fire at them. Unfortunately some times we forget little things that mean so much, but with journaling these memories are just a page turn away.

Be Nice to everyone!

One thing I find extremely attractive in a person is the way they treat others. Are you the type of person that helps others out in time of need or offers your assistance when someone you care about is in trouble. These type of qualities are factors that could possibly attract the person of your dreams to you. Haven't you seen in the movies where someone does something nice and it seems like they are rewarded with the person of their dreams. This can happen to you. Just start being nice to everyone even if they are nasty to you. Turn the other check if you have to and just say "I'm sorry you feel that way" and explain your side of the situation. Not only will this make you attractive to others, it will make you attractive to yourself. You will feel good and not carry baggage around with you in your daily life. Think of how many times you have let someone upset you, only to carry it around with you all day. Thinking about how you should have told them off or what you should have done to them. If you can let it roll of your back think of better use of your time you would have. Start today it is not to late, be nice.

Encourage someone else!

Encouragement is one of the greatest gifts you can give to anyone. Now if you are in a relationship with that person it is even more of an offering. Get behind them no matter what they want to try and do. If they want to go back to school help them find a way to achieve that dream. Their are a lot of things people want to do and never really seem to get around to doing them. Some night when you are sitting talking to each other find out the other person's passions, what are somethings that interest them. Then you simply encourage them to go for it. Maybe it is ballroom dancing or learning sign language. One thing that I always feel is that we can never learn enough in our lifetime. We can always learn something new, and that goes for even older people. To make your life exciting pick something new to learn and enjoy whenever you can. The last thing you want for yourself or your partner is to sit around in a chair watching television. Get both of your out and enjoy your life to the fullest, encourage, encourage, encourage and then encourage them some more.

Zoo it up!

One of the most romantic places to take a date early in your relationship is the zoo. This may seem a little silly but think about it. You get to walk around all the time, with no agenda you don't have to be a the lion cage at seven o'clock for your reservation. You have lots of things that can visually stimulate a conversation, with the animals, obviously. You can also talk about the crowd and the children as well as other things around the zoo. As you walk you have many chances to get away from the crowd and get some one on one time. Just find an exhibit that not many people find interesting and you can sit there and talk about what ever you feel like. Being at the zoo also gives you and your date a feeling of freedom. You are not enclosed like the animals and you are free to roam about the entire facility. You can even find a bench just to sit and enjoy the day. The next time you are wondering where to take a date early in the relationship don't look past the zoo, it might just be the place where the two of you will hit it off.

The Feet

We all know how romantic a foot rub can be and a massage on the feet can send people into an almost orgasmic state. This makes me wonder why we don't pay more attention to our partners feet during other times. We spend most of our waking hours standing on our feet and yet we don't give them the romance they need unless we are using it a means of foreplay. First things first, since we spend so much time on our feet make sure you partner or lover has great shoes. Nothing can make your feet hurt worse then cheap shoes that don't give you the cushion you need. After making sure their shoes are proper, get them off their feet as much as possible. If your partner spends all day on their feet at work don't expect them to spend the night walking around the mall. Find an activity where you can sit down and relax their feet. Rent a movie and prop up on the couch or catch the football game in the same manner. Purchase a nice scrub brush for the shower to brush both of your feet with. Nothing feels better then giving your feet the attention they deserve. By doing all these romantic things for your partners feet, then next time you get time to be more romantic you won't have to focus so much on their feet to start with.

Does Time stop when you kiss?

One way to tell for sure that you are in love is the feeling of time when you kiss that special someone. Does it seem like time stands still? Are you so caught up in the moment that it doesn't matter how long you have been kissing. Can you feel his/her lips as it they were the only think on earth? If you answer yes to most of these question you are surely having some sort of feelings about this person. Now it might not be love but it is a beginning. If you are not getting these feelings then things might not be right. It might be the timing of the kiss, like are you busy when it takes place or are you in a crowded mall. These situations might make it tough to see how your feelings are really doing. However if you are alone and are not getting these feelings then maybe just maybe that spark might not be there. Do you look into each others eyes after a passionate kiss, that is usually a tell, tale sign of the feelings of the other person.

Don't be blinded by new relationship energy!

Sometimes we are so excited with a new relationship that we can be blinded to things that might be signs the relationship won't work out. You might think that this is a little out of context for a romance site. We are here to bring romance into relationships and part of that starts with understanding the relationship from the start. New relationship are exciting but so much so that sometimes we overlook things that will really bug us later in the relationship. You need to stop and think about things while you are away from this new person. Try to see into the future with their drinking make a difference later in your relationship. Maybe they have a drug habit or maybe they just ask for you to do things that make you feel a little uncomfortable. Yes trying new things are a great way to branch out but thing about the future. Can you put up with this things that seem okay at the start of a relationship. Another thing you need to think about is are you doing things at the start of this relationship that you might not do later down the road? Are you trying to hard to make this person feel the same energy you are feeling right now? Are you being yourself? New relationship energy is great and can make you feel better then you have in a while, just make sure it isn't blinding you to the facts that are right in front of your face. I'm not trying to scare you off of a relationship you have just entered into, but wouldn't it be better to be a little more cautious at the beginning of the relationship. If the relationship is right it will grow and build around the problems, you don't want to ignore the problems.

Be Yourself

So many times in the beginning of a relationship we try to be someone we are not. Maybe you try to act like your favorite actor or actress, which doesn't work in my case because Adam Sandler is not high on many women's list. Our you try to act like other people that you think have it down. However as much as it seem silly the best person to be is yourself. Lay all your little quirks out on the table from the beginning. If you like Star Wars let them know during your conversation. If your person you are with sees the real you from the beginning you will have a lot better chance of the relationship working for the long haul. Plus you will know that the person is about you and not about the person your acting like. You don't want to be six months into a relationship and find out your partner thinks your Star Wars fixation is childish and you should abandon it at once. Things like that are better known from the start. As you begin a new relationship take heart and be yourself, you might just thank yourself later for doing it. Plus you will find someone that likes you for you, and that is worth all the lightsabers in the world.

Staying Focused

One of the hardest things you have to do when entering a new relationship is to stay focused. It is so hard to start thinking as a couple instead of an individual. You have to start thinking about calling before you go places or seeing if your partner would like to go. Grocery shopping becomes a whole different beast when you become a couple. Two people can live cheaper then one but only if they like all the same things. If you go shopping alone you can bet you will forget something you partner wants. This is where you need to stay focused. Make lists of your partners likes and dislikes until you memorize them. This goes for everything not just shopping. Another hard area to get together on is the decorating of your house or apartment. You might have had sports memorabilia up in the living room when you were not part of a couple. However your new partner might have had lots of flowers in their living room. What do you do sports memorabilia and flowers don't go together real well. Here is where we get to that magic word, Compromise. Met somewhere in the middle and make sure the items appeal to both partners. Staying focused in a relationship is tough especially if you are new at it.

Get your partner a little hot under the collar.

Want to turn you partner on a little and do something good for your health at the same time? Well next time you are just sitting around doing nothing, get up and work out a little in front of your partner. Grab some weights or slip in an aerobic tape and start working out. You can bet your partner will take notice. It doesn't matter how out of shape you are at least you will be showing them that you are going to start getting into better shape. Now that you have started this you have to keep doing it, make it a routine at certain times of the week. Say Sunday while you are watching football, or right before you go to bed during your cool down time. Nothing is more exciting then watching your partner flex their muscles or bounce around the house sticking your butt in the air. Even if your partner is doing something else I am sure they will glance over the top of their book from time to time to take a peak at you getting even more sexy. Try it today and let us know how it works out!!!

Labor Day Weekend

Make a special weekend for your sweety. Most people have a little extra time off during this holiday so make some plans to get out and enjoy something you haven't done as of yet. Something like a get away would be very romantic. Hope in the care and go visit some friends or get a hotel with a pool and spend the day swimming and enjoying time together. You could also just go spend the day at one of your local state parks. The only thing is you should make a a little distance from your home. Don't go somewhere you can go any weekend. Pick a place that is a little farther drive that you wouldn't thing about during a normal weekend. Enjoy the drive get you some good music the two of you can sing to and if you have a convertible drop the top and roll out. Just be free spirits for the weekend. If you don't have much money find things to do that involve sightseeing, they are usually free or cost very little. Make it memorable and take lots of pictures. Enjoy your weekend.

Another Great way to save some money to do something fun.

Are you still looking for ways to stash a little cash away? Well here is a suggestion on eating that could save you some cash. Split your meals. With the economy in the shape it is in. I am seeing several restaurants offering meals at greatly reduced prices to get people in the door. This is a great way for you to save some money. First of all find a larger meal and split it between the two of you. Most meals at restaurants are large enough that you can split and still feel pretty full. Make sure not to all into things like drinks and appetizers at these restaurants. Yes they are good but they will make the bill go up quickly. Get water to drink at places it is free then if you want a soda later get one out of the vending machine or at home, they are much cheaper.

Another idea is to find a buffet that offers carry out. They will usually charge you for one person then give you a box to fill up. If you know things your partner likes you can easily get two meals in the box for the price of one. I have a friend that will fill his box at the Chinese restaurant and then make three meals out of it for $5.75. Now that is a bargain. If you just use your brain a little you can save quite a bit of money. Many years ago McDonald's offered $25 cent hamburgers and then the cheeseburgers were .69 cents. Well we found out that adding cheese to a sandwich only cost .20 cents at that time. So we would order hamburgers and add cheese to make the cheeseburger .45 cents! Make sure to check out other great ways to save money in this manner. Keep track of what you save and put it away for a trip or something special for the two of you.

Go For it.

Do you sit around and have great romantic ideas pop into your head, only to talk yourself out of doing them. Thinking your partner might think they are silly or think you are nuts. Well stop right now many a great romantic ideas are never put into place because of this type of thinking. I am here to tell you that if a idea pops into your head then act on it. No big deal if it doesn't go over as well as you planned, but what if it goes over even better then you planned. Use the slogan from Nike and "Just do it" I can't even imagine how many ideas didn't happen because of people wondering how they would be perceived. Remember, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Now get out their and show your partner how romantic you are.

Don't date above your means

Just some basic words of advice. Don't date above your means. We all want to impress our dates especially on the first few dates. We want them to think we are comfortable with our lifestyle. Sometimes it is easy to overdue it and go out to a super fancy restaurant or take a trip somewhere. These things are fun but if they don't fit in your budget, you will be paying for them for a long time. Be honest with your date and pick restaurants that are in your price range or find fun things to do that don't cost a lot. Believe me your date needs to know your status from the beginning. Don't make him/her believe that you have money to burn if you don't. That will only lead to tension later down the line. If you date really likes you and enjoys being with you then the amount of money you make won't make a difference. Never ever spend more on a date then you can afford, it only leads to troubles. Be creative and find things to do that are fun and cheap if you need to, I am sure your date will appreciate the effort that you put into your evening together.

Make your meal a Happy Meal.

Remember way back when and the excitement you had as a kid when you would get a happy meal. You didn't even touch your food until you got the prize out of the box. Why not do that every once in a while for your partner? Next time you go to a fast food place to pick up the food slip a little something in the bottom of the bag for your sweety. It doesn't have to be something large or expensive. Maybe a Magazine they like or their favorite candy bar. Something to show them you are thinking about them. If you do have the means maybe some tickets to a show or sporting event would be nice. You could even do a coupon for a evening out instead of fast food the next time. Be creative you can even get little stuffed animals to place in the bottom of the back just to make someone feel warm and fuzzy. A word of caution however, realize that the food from these places sometimes is greasy. Don't put tickets in the bottom of the bag without protection on them so the grease doesn't ruin them. A little zip lock bag will do nicely and keep your prize safe and sound.
