On a special occasion, buy your partner eleven real red roses and
one artificial red rose. Place the artificial rose in the center of the
bouquet.
Attach a card that says:
"I will love you until the last
rose fades.”
Drive into the country, find a grassy hill and lie with your
partner and look up at the clouds.
Play
the kid’s game of looking for shapes in the cloud formations.
Write a note saying
"I thought of you today,
and it made me smile."
Leave
the note somewhere where your partner is sure to find it.
If your partner has voice mail at work or on her mobile, leave a
message saying
"Just wanted to let you
know that I'm thinking of you."
She
will appreciate this anytime but especially when she is going through a rough
period.
When your partner is sitting at a table or desk, come
up behind him or her and give her a back, shoulder and head massage. Finish
with a gentle kiss on the cheek.
When your partner is sick at home, take a day off to look after
her.
Rent
some videos, make her some soup, wrap her up in a blanket and just be with her.
On a hot summer day, buy two large water pistols and take them to
the beach with you.
Pull
them out and throw one to your partner and then have a huge water fight.
Share your food with your
partner. When you go out for a meal, hold a forkful up to her mouth and say,
"You've got to try this."
Sharing
your food and even feeding each other is a great way to become closer as a
couple.
Compliment your partner in public. If you are talking
in a group and it is appropriate to the conversation say something like,
"Kate makes the most incredible roast." Squeeze her hand while you
are talking about her.
Even if you are just going down the road to buy some milk, act as
though you are returning home after a major adventure.
Say
something like, "Well it was touch and go there for a while with the snow
and the wolves but I made it!" and then give your partner a huge bear hug.
