7 Things Men Really Find Romantic
Men aren't supposed to like romance, right? Well, that's the theory, anyway. In practice, men may not always like to call it romance, but we feel the same yearning to connect that you do, to give and receive physical expressions of love and to continue the rituals of courtship. In short, we want to romance you... and we secretly want you to romance us. The flowery stuff, the roses, and candlelight, just isn't a guy thing. So skip the sweet little trappings and go for what's guaranteed to work.
#1. Dress Up for Him
"Consider dressing for his tastes and not just yours once in a while".
"Take him shopping and have him choose outfits he would like to see you in." Remember, you're doing this for him, not for you.
"Women should keep in mind that men are visually oriented"
#2. Initiate Physical Affection
Whether you're playing footie indoor or cuddling while watching tele program, men find the touch of the woman they love unbelievably reassuring. It's like a treasured nonverbal language, it translates as: "I accept you... I love you... We're a team.
"#3. Give Him a Night Out with the Boys -- No Strings Attached
It may seem odd to you that a romantic gesture might not involve you at all. But dogs run with dogs, wolves run with wolves, and every so often, guys just have to break away and run with the guys (drooling and howling optional).
#4. Tell Him What a Big, Strong Guy He Is
Men are famously incompetent at expressing themselves verbally... but that doesn't mean they don't appreciate hearing a little praise now and then. In particular, they draw a lot of their identity from their maleness. Nurturing their big-ape fantasies -- him Tarzan, you Jane -- A quick insight into men: They all want to be heroes. Remembering to compliment your mate on being a great partner isn't always easy in the middle of a busy day, but it's a quick shortcut to making him feel wanted, needed, and loved, which is of course the ultimate point of any romantic gesture.
#5. Score Him a Pair of Tickets to the Big Game
a weekend at a fishing pool or a new pair of shoes? Show them u care bcoz u make them happy. So when you're thinking about gifts, try not to think about what you'd like to get him, but what he'd like to receive.
#6. Show Interest in His Outside Life
We live in a fast-paced world, and we all know it's easy enough to get wrapped up in our own routines. But finding ways to let a man know you care about all aspects of his life, not just the parts he shares with you, is a great way to show you love the whole man. Shoot him a few well-directed questions about work to help him unwind, surprise him with a book relating to a hobby, track down a website that deals with some problem he's having -- all are touching gestures that he will be happy to received.
#7. Tell Him a Secret
Men want to be soul mates, too. Telling him a secret -- symbolically letting him deeper inside you -- demonstrates total trust in him and faith in your relationship. Because you're making yourself vulnerable, it's an incredible bonding experience. What works just as well: Encourage him to tell you a secret or two. And don't laugh.
