Romance
isn’t about spending money, it’s about
spending time together, spending energy and
creativity to attract and keep the relationship
exciting and the love alive. - Heidi Richards
Romance isn’t about how much money you lavish on
another. It’s about attracting the object of
your affection. Romance is about making dreams and
fantasies come true. Romance is defined as “an
exciting and mysterious quality; a relationship
between two lovers.” It is the “act of making
your partner feel loved.” Romance is more than
an act, it’s a state of being. It’s the heart,
the soul and the mind working together to create
an adventure, and increase enthusiasm for one
another.
“Romance means intimacy and connection, which
means paying attention to detail. It’s making
her lunch or giving him a massage. It’s making
the bed together and cuddling. It’s holding
hands and leaving little “love notes” around
the house. It’s touching and feeling and
listening and sharing. It’s excitement and
serenity, spontaneity and planning. It’s telling
the other person what you want, and doing the
things the other person likes. It’s connecting
deeply.
Romance is about timing, imagination, exploration
and creativity. Being Romantic is about…. being
creative, being willing to take a risk. Sometimes
it’s being sweet. Sometimes it’s being silly.
Romance is about … the right attitude. And
attitude can cost you a little or a lot. True
romantics have the right attitude; and use
imagination to cultivate loving, sensual
relationships.
So just how do you develop the right attitude?
Start out with little acts of affection, little
things to show you care and can be romantic. Here
are a few suggestions (excerpted from the book,
Romance on a Budget) to help you spark your
imagination.
- This Kiss (#10) – You must remember this; a
kiss is still a kiss… kiss often. Repeat several
times.
- Look into My Eyes (#11) – When you gaze into
each others eyes, everyone else seems to
disappear. And looking intensely at one another
can send a message to your lover that can lead to
other things.
- You Light up my Life (#15) - Spray the perfume
or cologne you wear on a light bulb. When the
light is turned on the scent of you will fill the
room.
- What a Feeling (#19) – Tell your love how much
you appreciate him/her. Write your message on a
post-it-note and stick it where it is sure to be
found.
- Get out of your Comfort Zone (Intro) – Do
something impulsive, even a little risky that will
excite your lover and ignite the romance.
Like the song says “Love Don’t come easy.” I
believe that “Romance Don’t Come Easy. “ But
with a little practice and planning, the results
can be thrillllllllling….
