Get your relationship back into shape.

We all have problems keeping the extra weight off during the holidays. All the extra food and drink can really make it hard for you but as soon as the holidays are over most people begin some type of regimen to lose the extra pounds tacked on at this type of year. What about your relationship? Does it take a back seat during the holidays, because you have so much to do. I mean it is hard to call shopping and rushing around from family to family any type of date. Now is the time to put your relationship back on the front of your to do list. Take a weekend and reconnect with your partner, get a hotel room, find some exciting things to do and spend the evenings making love. Put all your effort into impressing the person you love, because even though you most likely bought them several wonderful presents how much time did you really take away from them during the Christmas experience. I know I spend time wrapping presents, shopping, and visiting family that I would have spend being with the person that makes my heart sing. So now it is the time to revisit and fall in love again.

Tokens of your love for Christmas.

Merry Christmas Romantic People!!!! Today is your day to shine, giving the person you love tokens of your love and passion. Take your time and truly enjoy the watching of your partner unwrapping the gifts you have picked out for them. Take inventory of all the wonderful gifts that you get and make sure to thank you partner for each and every one of them. I have always heard it is better to give than to receive but I never truly understood it until I had someone to love. Giving gifts to the person that makes you heart sing is far better then getting things yourself. As a child I was always excited about what I was going to get but now I am more excited about seeing the reactions that the presents I picked out get. Enjoy your Christmas and try to keep the feelings and gratitude going for the rest of the year.

Romantic Christmas Eve

Tonight is the night it is one of the best night for romance of the year. It is the time for you to show your partner or friend how much you care about them. Make sure during the family gatherings, parties, and tucking the children in that you make time for the two of you to have some quiet time together. Block out all of the other distractions of the upcoming day and focus on each other. Set a time, say two hours, for uninterrupted time that you can snuggle and calm each other for the upcoming arrival of Santa. Make love, drink cocoa, wrap the remaining presents but do it together and as a team. It is easy to go to bed early to get to the next day but don’t forget about on of the most important parts of the season, that being the person you love.

Wrap up a memory

The economy is hoping that you are going out and spending a bunch of money this Christmas, and yes that is the way to break out of a recession. However, a romantic thing to do for your partner is to give them something for Christmas that reminds them of a special time the two of you had together. Maybe it is a picture from you last vacation, or the baby booties of your first born child. Think back through out the year and try to remember anything monumental that happened to the two of you during that last year together. Firsts are always something to remember such as the first marathon you ran, your first house or even the first time you kissed. Now the job is to find something that you can wrap up that will take them back to that time. A picture of the event is a great way, go out a purchase a nice frame and place the picture inside it, the will immediately remember that event. Items from that event are another suggestion, say you had a child together during this year then the little beanie that they but on the baby in the hospital in a frame would be an extra special thing you could hang on your wall. You can pick up brochures from your last vacation destination, or programs from events you attended. If a special song was playing during your memory you could pick up that song for them. The important thing about wrapping up a memory is that it will get your partner thinking about the wonderful times the two of you have together.

Create an Electronic Card for you Love.

So many less people are sending out Christmas Cards these years, but with a little imagination you can get in on the cutting edge of digital Christmas Cards. I am sure at some point and time you have send someone an email card or even just an email expressing your feelings. Now a days however it is so easy to send a video or picture with the mail. Now this is where you need to be creative. Pick out a song or a act you want to perform for you love and set it in motion. Check out the video at the bottom of this post for a an idea someone else had. You want to pick out something that will make the person or persons you are sending it to smile and remember why this season is so special. Once you have performed your act or song then simply put it in a form you can send and email it to that special person

Fill your lovers stocking.

I know most of you think that stockings are for children from Santa, but it can also be a great way to show someone how much you care about them. For adults stockings can be very different from the ones children receive. Think about the things you will put in them for starters give them things that they will use on a daily basis. Items such as shave cream or hair care products. Lotions, oil, deodorant as well as sexual aids such as condoms, lubricants, or underpants will make awesome additions to the stocking set. Gift cards are another great idea since they fit very nicely into the stocking. You can also make up coupons, you have made, to fill up their stocking. You can make one that is for a night at the movies, or breakfast in bed just make sure you follow through later when they try to use their coupon. If you partner likes a certain kind of candy you can include it also or if they are more healthy then you could add some nuts or fruit to the package. If you have the time you could even make a them stocking. If you partner loves golf then you could put all the things needed to play their favorite sport such as tees, golf balls, passes to the local course, or even golf gloves. The only thing I would like to pass along is that you make the things in the stocking useful don't purchase things that will never get used, fill the stocking with things that will make them think about you for the rest of the year.

Replace Sugary treats with kisses and love.

During the holidays it is so easy to find comfort it food. There are so many wonderful items to partake of during this season. Cookies, snacks, and rich foods make up the items that people make during the holidays that we don't usually find during the other times of the year. If you want a way to avoid falling into the Christmas treat trap, you need to look no father then your partner. They can be the support you need to fend off these sugary treats. Make a pact with your partner that every time you feel like picking up a cookie, rice crispy treat or any other sugary item that instead you will stroll over and give them a kiss instead. This will soon become a conditioned response and you will find yourself doing it without even thinking. You might just walk by some cookies and feel a desire to kiss your partner. The nice part about kisses is they don't have any calories and they can lead to lots more fun things to do around the holidays. Plus kisses taste a whole lot better!
