| 101 Romantic idea by Michael Webb, Founder, TheRomantic.com |
Memorize one of Shakespeare's love sonnets and recite it to your partner
when you are in a romantic setting like a botanical garden. Don't just
suddenly start reciting poetry as this will just sound corny.
While you are cuddling your partner, ask in a joking manner, "So is now a
good time to recite a love poem to you?" She will probably say yes, expecting
you to come up with something of the "Roses are Red..." variety.
Instead, look into her eyes, smile and recite the sonnet while you gently stroke
her face. Try the sonnet below. If this is too long, just memorize the first four
lines and the last two.
Shakespeare Love Sonnet 18
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimmed.
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest,
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
IDEA Number 12
If your partner has to work late, take a lunch box and fill it with some of her
favorite things such as chocolates, herbal tea, cookies, a small teddy bear.
Next, get a piece of paper and write
"Michelle's Late Night Survival Pack"
Draw a big red cross below this and stick the paper to the top of the box. Tell
your partner to open the box when things get really tough.
IDEA Number 13
If you are walking by a park, visit the swings and give your partner a ride.
This will often bring back happy memories from her childhood.
IDEA Number 14
Leave a long stem rose where your partner will find it with a note on it saying:
"Thank you for coming into my life."
IDEA Number 15
If your partner is starting a new job, buy a copy of "The Sound Of Music"sound track. Taps the song,"I Have Confidence"onto a tape and add your own message at the end of the song saying.
"Good Luck Honey, I have confident in you."
Give the tape to your partner to play on the way to work in the car.
IDEA Number 16
Buy a small decorated cardboard box, a sheet of colored tissue paper, some massage oil and a blank card.
Line the box with the tissue paper. Place the massage oil in the box write the following message on the card :
I know a great Masseur.
For an appointment ring:
(Your Phone Number)
IDEA Number 17
When your spouse has had a really long hard day, run a hot bath for her.
Pour some fragrant bath oil into the tub and gently bath her from head to toe.
Carry her into the bedroom. Gently towel her dry and tuck her into a freshly made bed with a kiss on the forehead.
IDEA Number 18
For this idea you will need a portable CD player. If you and your partner have a
favorite song, get a copy of it on CD and take it with you when you go away for a
romantic weekend.
When you are in a romantic spot, ask your partner if she would like to dance.
Place one earpiece in her ear and one in your own and enjoy your private
dance floor.
This technique is particularly effective if the romantic spot you have chosen is
somewhere where people would not normally dance, for example, the top of
the Empire State building at sunset or on top of a mountain during a camping
trip.
IDEA Number 19
If your partner has a pet that she adores, at Christmas, in addition to buying a gift for your partner, buy a small present for her pet.
IDEA Number 20
Go for a walk on the beach. Trace out the shape of a large love heart in the sand. Sit inside the heart and cuddle your partner as you watch the sun go down.
