It's okay to be selfish every once in a while.

Being selfish is not the quality that everyone wants to have associated with their name. However, every once in a while it is okay be be the selfish one. Now we are not talking about all give and no take but we are saying that it is okay to speak your desires. Tell you partner what you want be it a certain supper or an activity in bed that you want to perform with them. Be confident and express you desires. By doing this you will seem a little selfish but you will also get your point across and maybe you might get what you want. Be careful with you selfishness it can be a very bad thing if used way to often so use this power very sparingly.

Random acts of Couples Kindness

Most of you have probably heard of Random Acts of Kindness (RAK). Why not put some RAK into our relationships. You can do the normal simple things like bringing home flowers or kissing at special times. However, I want you to think a little outside the box and see what happens. Here is one I like to do. You know how good it makes you feel when you find money in your pockets you didn't know was there. Well use that for you RAK find our what your partner is going to wear that day and while they are in the shower or eating breakfast slip a five or ten in the pocket of those clothes. Watch their reaction as they find it, you have just started their day in a good way. Another great thing to do is take their car and get it washed or fill it up with gas, without them knowing. Whatever you do don't let them know and plead the 5th when they question you about it.

Coin Collection

Want to do something that doesn't seem romantic but when you partner finds out about it will make them swell up? Start a romantic coin collection. Save coins from the change of special events you go to. Things like movies you attend or romantic dinners you have together. After you pay for what ever it is save the smallest coin from that change and hold on to it. When you get home tape it to a index card and write down on the card what event it was from. Start this as soon as possible in your relationship but don't let you partner see until well into the relationship. After you have been together for a while pulling out a card with the change on it from your first date would be pretty impressive. You can also write your feelings on the card about the event or even put down little trivia things like what she was wearing, what songs you heard, or milestones in your relationship, such as first touch, first kiss, etc. Not only will this seem romantic but it will make it easy to remember all those wonderful times you had together. Just keep it going all through your relationship and you will have the best coin collection ever.

Ladies give in a do some guy things!

Ladies want to do something romantic for you partner? Try doing some quote guy things with him. I know in this day and age that sounds a little out of place. There are however things that men seem to prefer on average than women. On of the biggest ones is sports. Try to enjoy a game with him be it at home or if you can secure tickets to a game even better. Make it a date but use it more as a friendship building activity. Cheer, laugh and have a good time weather you are at home or at the game try to get into it. Ask him questions to try to understand the game if you don't but not to many questions as you don't want to turn in into a class. What if you guy doesn't like sports? Well then watch and see what activities he enjoys with his friends and ask him sometime to let you enjoy it with him. Maybe he like photography, if so go with him and let him show you how to take wonderful pictures. No matter what things he likes to do try it out it doesn't mean you have to do it all the time with him but make the effort to understand it. When we think about romance we most often think of kissing and dating. Finding common interests is a very romantic and can build a relationship or make it stronger in a hurray.

Have a drink ready!

Have you ever had a time where you partner is having a bad day at work? Maybe they called you at lunch or texted you during the day to tell you how terrible of day they are having. We all have these days where nothing seems to go right and every time you turn around it seems to get worse. This is where being a kind and loving partner comes in. You can turn their day around as soon as the walk through the door. Have their favorite drink ready for them and give them a big kiss as the walk through the door. Encourage them to sit down and talk to you about their day, let them get it off their chest so that they can put it behind them. Maybe, just maybe you will make their night a little better and they can forget about the terrible day they have had. Within each and everyone of us there is the power to lift our lovers up. Be it with compassion and praise, or listening and understanding, we can turn the tides for them. Make them feel special the rest of the night, make sure to touch them often as touch is a soothing reminder of the love you have for them. If the time is right have induce a little sexual release from them and let them enjoy your wonderful love for them. We cannot change the past but we can make the present a different place.

Dress it up a little!

Romance can take all shapes and forms but usually we want it to be as comfortable as it can be. However the more comfortable we get the less likely we are to get out of that comfort. One of the things that takes a big hit is dressing up to go out to dinner or on a date with each other. We get in a habit in a relationship of feeling so comfortable that it takes over the way we dress. Soon we find ourselves looking for places to eat where we can wear or comfortable clothes and be ourselves. Think back to when you wanted to impress each other. Did you wear your loose fitting clothes or eat at the local fast food establishment? No you went someplace nice and you wore clothes to impress each other. Why don't we do that now? At least once a month you should shed those normal clothes and venture out together looking good together. Find a place that is on the higher end of your budget and doesn't have any cartoon characters or clowns. Then spend the night conversing and enjoy the sights of each other. Find something to do after dinner without dressing down. Go for a stroll or go out for a drink and keep the dressed up feel going all night.
