Romance, let's talk about romance. Everyone wants it but not everyone has romance in their life. I am not an expert on romance but I know that I do enjoy being romanced. Hopefully my mother is not reading my blog today. My mother is a little old fashioned and since I am not married anymore the topic of romance she probably doesn't think I should be discussing. You don't have to be married to have romance and feel good.
Romance in the beginning of a relationship is usually always wonderful. Keeping the romance alive and exciting is what becomes challenging as we are in relationships for years. How would I describe romance for me. I want to connect through communication. If we are communicating we are connecting. I find romance in the little things. Of course, what women does not like to have flowers and diamonds but those gestures are not done on a regular basis. It's the little natural gestures that make for romance. Simple as, kind words, grabbing your hand when walking, a hug, a smile. Here is one I know all of you will love, open the car door. It's a simple kind romantic gesture, simply shows that a man knows how to respect and appreciate a women. I know some women feel they want be be treated like an equal to their partner. Being equal and having a man romance you is completely different. If a man suggests he would never open a car door for this reason, I would keep it moving.....just my opinion. Being a single working mom of 3 you can't get anymore independent self sufficient then that. However, opening a car door is a romantic gesture I appreciate from my partner.
One more gesture that I appreciate and couples lack is holding hands. Whether you are out on a date or just sitting and watching TV. Holding hands is a great romantic simple gesture that most forget is a great way of connecting and feeling connected to your partner. Our lives get so busy we sometimes forget the simple things in life that make us all feel good. Keeping romance and having kind gestures when in a long term relationship keeps your partner connected and appreciated.
That's it for today. I could get more detailed and elaborate more about romance but I don't want to shock everyone. Keeping my first post about Romance very light.
