- Who can resist love letters? You can hide the notes in various places for him/her to find through the day: the lunch bag, wallet, dashboard of the car…get creative. Again, as a general rule women will like love letters that are romantic. They should be about how beautiful she is, how amazing she is, and other pleasing aspects of her personality. Men, generally, will like to hear about their amazing muscles, and how incredible they are and how happy they make you.
- Plan to watch a movie at home that you will both enjoy (No horror or action flicks). A romantic movie can set the atmosphere and you can take it from there. Have fun!
- Re-enact your first date. If possible, go to the same places or find something similar. Reminiscing reminds you of the early days of your relationship. Wear what you did that day. Capture the magic that made you two fall in love.
Dating? Make it your license to thrill!
