Keep the Romance Fire Burning

Now ladies, I’m going to tell you the truth about men and true romance – and chances are you’re not going to like it. All I can ask is that you don’t shoot the messenger.

Here's what you need to know about true romance for couples: The vast majority of men were not born with the romantic gene. Most men couldn’t care less about love hearts, roses or cute little teddy-bears.

If you’re lucky and most likely at the beginning of a relationship, your man may oblige with small romantic acts to make you happy. If he’s clever, he may even work out that by giving you what you want (romance), he’s more likely to get what he wants (sex). As they say,

‘Men need to have sex in order to feel good. Women need to feel good in order to have sex.’

And to women, nothing feels better than being truly romanced!

A Woman’s Guide to Pure Romance

So what can you do to keep true romance alive and well in your relationship? True Romance - A Single Red Rose.

1. Don’t be Addicted to Romance

This may sound a little strange, but I kid you not, a lot of women are addicted to true romance. An addiction is nothing but an emotion-backed demand. You insist on it in order to feel loved and if it doesn’t happen, you feel cheated. There goes good sex out the window.

If you upgrade the addiction to a preference, you’ll feel a lot happier. It’s not difficult to do. Just make a decision that you’d prefer to be romanced, but that you don’t absolutely need it for your relationship to work. The truth is that the less pressure you put on your partner to come up with the goodies, the more likely he is to do it because he wants to.

2. Model Romance

Understand that nearly all men could do with some modelling of romantic behaviours. If you want to be have a romantic dinner on Valentine’s Day, make the reservations and send him an invitation with a sexy little note that promises dessert in bed.

If you like to make love by candle-light, don’t wait for him to figure it out. Take responsibility to set the mood yourself. If he sees that it adds to your enjoyment, chances are it will catch on. Read my page on bedroom sensuality for some fabulous true romance ideas to set the mood.

3. Be Appreciative

When your lover does make the effort to be romantic, make a big deal out of it. You can shape behaviour by positive reinforcement. If you show him that the little things mean a lot, and work at fulfilling his needs at the same time, he will be more likely to repeat his actions.

4. Give what He wants

When it comes to true romance, understand that men and women have different requirements. Men are much more overt in what they need to get turned on. An explicit sexual message left on his phone would probably score higher points in the romance department for him than a heart drawn in the sand on the beach. Women however, thrive on warm fuzzies: little I-love-you notes, love poems, small gifts, and star-gazing. Don’t give what you would really want for yourself. Don’t give what you want; give what he would find appealing.
