Don't pass up other peoples parties.

A good way to see how well you and your partner will interact with others is to venture out to a party you have been invited to. It is easy to skip these parties and I will be the first one to tell you being trapped at a boring party is not very much fun. First thing to do is give your and your partner a way out, tell the host or hostess you can only stay for an hour, then if the party is lame you are only there for an hour, on the other hand you can stay longer if you both are having a good time. Always respect your partner if they want to leave. Never ignore a request that your partner is not having a good time. Drinking is fine at these parties as long as one of you is sober enough to drive. As I mentioned earlier this will help tell you how well the two of you are as a couple it tests all the things you might have trouble with later on in your relationship. If you can make it through a friends party and still find the enjoy each others company more then the other people at the party you are well on your way to building a solid relationship. However if you find that you can't find happy ground at the party or your partner is snubbing you for the cute little lady in the corner you have now seen the red flag. Sure these parties might not be the most fun you have ever had but they will show you a thing or two about your partner.

Tought times make romance even more important.

Right now most people are in the same boat. We are all having to really nit pick what we spend our money on. With this most of the romantic things we use to spend money on are falling to the way side until better times return. For the romantic at heart this is a real bummer, however if you are creative you can still bring the romance home in other forms. Maybe you can't afford a big fancy dinner out, but maybe you can make a nice meal at home for your partner and you to enjoy. A huge bunch of flowers might be just a little too much, but a nice single rose still says "I Love You" For every romantic thing you use to do you can find a less expensive version. Going out for drinks can be replaced with buying some booze for home and inviting friends over to play board games. Spending the night snuggling on the couch watching movies under a blanket with microwave popcorn can replace going to the megaplex and paying $10 a piece to see the same movie. I hope you see where I am headed with all this. You don't have to stop being romantic you just have to find less expensive ways to do the same things. However some to the best things are and will always be free. Long talks, hand in hand walks, and making love all night are still high on the romantic list and to my knowledge have never cost anything.

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.

Debate.

Some of the greatest and most passionate conversations I have ever had during my relationships is when the two of us have debated an issue. I love trying to get my point acrossed to the my partner and I enjoy listening to their side. Debates are fun because they are a controlled argument. You may not agree with the other persons view but you don't get upset with them. Some great topics to discuss are the economy, health, spirituality, and sex. They allow you to express yourself and talk in a manner of calmness. Here is what I like to do crack open a bottle of wine and just sit on the deck or porch and talk til the wee hours of the morning. I love it because I get to experience someone else's point of view and sometime that special lady in my life has swayed me to her side. It is a form of education if you will and all you have to do is look on the Internet for something to debate about. Give it a try tonight I believe it can bring you closer together as a couple and gives your partner a little more insight into you.

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.
