There are times when any woman might take her man for granted. Perhaps you’ve both been busy at work, or maybe the stresses of daily life are getting you down.
But what can you do if you’re worried about that perfect spark going out of your relationship?
Never fear—there are plenty of ways to prove to him (and you) that what you have together is definitely alive and well.
Following are some of the ways by which you can let your man know how much you love him and care for him.
Make a date! It’s amazing how many couples never arrange to have any time alone with each other. Plan a weekend getaway or even just a night out, and take the initiative to let him know how much you enjoy spending time with him.
Be cheerful. Smile, and take pleasure in the little things. Nothing kills the romance like moping around. This is a great way to lift everyone’s spirits and turn both your thoughts to love. If you’re in a good mood, chances are he’ll start smiling too!
Dress up a little! Wear some makeup or a great outfit, even if there’s no special occasion. Know how beautiful you are, and impress him with your confidence. Your spontaneity might just drive him wild!
Show trust. Encourage him to go out with his friends, while you spend some time with yours. Time apart doesn’t have to mean a relationship is dying—in fact, it can mean quite the opposite. In a happy couple, both guy and girl get to have their own lives.
Surprise him! You know him the best, so find a way to give him one of his favorite gifts whenever he is least expecting it. Nothing kindles the heart like knowing that someone has been thinking about your happiness.
Tech Gadgets: What? An iPod or a Blackberry as a romantic gift? That’s right—men love to fiddle with a new piece of technology. Get him a gadget that he doesn’t own yet, and you’re showing him that you care about his interests. What could be better?
Romantic Mementos: Is there a special moment the two of you have shared together? Get a token of that experience—a locket with your pictures in it, a postcard from that magical getaway you once took—and give it to him with a heartfelt message. This is sure to help him relive all of his fondest memories with you!
Intimate Gifts: If your relationship is at a mature level, getting him some more (*ahem*) intimate items could be just the thing to revitalize his passion for you. Even buying yourself some pretty new underwear might be a quick way to remind him of all the things he loves about you.
Sports Tickets: It may not seem romantic on the surface, but two tickets to see his favorite team will be a welcome gift for most any man. Also, it means that he’ll get to spend a day with not one, but two of the things he loves most: his team and you!
His Favorite Meal: Some things are classic for a reason, as everyone knows that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. If you’re a fine cook, then great! If not, take out a hot meal from his favorite restaurant. Never underestimate the power of good food and better company!
Boyfriend -- Carlie Wensley
“U gave me the strength 2 believe in myself,
u gave me the power to love nothing else,
I love u so much I wish you cud see,
I love u so much u mean the world to me,
I love you so much you don't understand,
my world falls in place when u hold my hand,
my stomach turns when u hold me tight,
I wish u cud hold me all day and night,
my eyes fill with tears when I have to go,
I love you so much and I want you to know,
my world feels so right with you by my side,
but this would all change if you ever lied,
we've bin friends 4 ages and really get on,
if we try hard enough it Will Never go wrong,
I want u forever not 4 a day,
I will love and respect you and Never go away,
I hate it when u look at me,
cos there's a scared and lonely girl hiding u see,
I can’t stand it when u look me in the eye,
I get a lump in my throat and need to cry,
I've loved u like a friend and even a big brother,
but now the time has come and I love you like a lover.”
I Carry Your Heart with Me -- E.E.Cummings
“I carry your heart with me (I carry it in
my heart) I am never without it (anywhere
I go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling)
I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart)”
