The Art of Romance and Dating


Lately I've found myself wondering how many guys in this day and age really know how to woo a woman. Honestly I think they do know. With the abundance of media forms slapping us upside the head with ideas every day, why isn't anyone paying attention, taking notes, and using the tools that have been subtly provided?


I would love my guy (or potential guy) to plan a romantic dinner out (heck even making reservations would count at this point!), ask me out more than one hour in advance and find a way to make the evening special. A nice walk to see the Christmas lights, a drive to some hardly known dessert place, a quiet lounge for an after dinner drink.


What this boils down to is wanting to feel special. Wanting to feel wanted. It's not about the man always paying because these things get reciprocated. When women get swept off their feet, they give back twice as much. Women are givers but we need to feel special, like "Plan A", not the time filler because better offers didn't come along.


Invite me for a burger and a movie, Beavertails and ice sculptures, skating and hot toddies (okay maybe I'm too clumsy to go skating - that's another blog story altogether), but you get the idea. It's not the cost of the evening but the planning that woos a woman. Our hearts are stolen by the thought that went into planning a night that make us feel like there is no other place you'd rather be.


And realize guys, when you do this it pays off double! Nuff said! *wink*
