STAY ROMANTIC WITHOUT SEX

Marriage is looks beautiful and many people want it.

But one common thing in most marriages is the tendency to fall away from romantic ways and treat each other like furniture in the house.

After getting used to each other, couples often don’t see the need to do the little things that used to make them glow – compliments, romantic dates, kissing, cuddling etc.

Sometimes, they even keep a strict time table for sex and are almost robotic in bed.

Men who want to keep their women happy can actually achieve it without having to getting some sex action.

Here you go…

1. Start every morning with a kiss even when you are quarrelling
2. Write her a letter/poem with your most romantic thoughts once in a while
3. Cook for her (even if you’re terrible in the kitchen) and set up an intimate candlelight dinner, with wine and music
4. Make her favourite song your ringtone
5. Remember to buy her favourite snack on your way back whenever you go out
6. Invite her family over to show your wife her people are important to you too
7. Randomly buy her flowers on ordinary days
8. Appreciate her hobbies will give her a feeling of pride and gladden her heart.
9. Drop by her her office at lunchtime and then take her out for a quick meal
10. If you are wrong, be quick to say sorry and show that you mean it
11. Take her to see romantic movies as a surprise gift
12. Hold her close when you are in public to show you are proud of her
13. Surprise her with something beautiful and expensive without her asking
14. Go out for informal dates together like a picnic at the park or a swim at the beach
15. Bring back romance by recreating your first date…go back to the place you first asked her out and do it again
16. Give her a back or neck massage after work
17. Look good when you go with her because a well-groomed man always makes women proud.
18. View old photos together with your wife relive warm memories
19. Let your wife’s best pals visit once in a while because your attempt to bond with her friends will please her immensely
20. Always find opportunities to compliment you wife on her beauty points to let her know she is still the most beautiful woman in the world for you
21. Be suggestive when giving her advice rather than final and forceful
22. Wake her up with a cup of coffee (tea) once in a while
23. Cuddle her at every opportunity because women love the feeling of physical intimacy
24. Cook the meal and do morning chores on Saturday so that she can sleep for longer
25. Don’t stop treating her like a lady – opening doors, being courteous – a man with perfect manners always scores
26. Accompany her to family events and look happy
27. Call her just to say you were missing her and just needed to hear her voice
28. Write brief love-you notes and hide them in odd places where she will find them
29. Talk dirty once in a while and create passion

The focus here is to be generally pleasant and keep your romance level on a high even in the absence of sex.

However, where both lovers are in a blissful relationship zone, sex is almost inevitable.

If sex happens, be sure to be a giver as much as a taker….

7 WAYS TO DATE YOURSELF BEFORE DATING OTHERS

You have to learn to love yourself first before loving anyone else. The key to having any successful relationship lies with you. So before jumping into that next relationship why don't you date yourself first.

You can be happy without having to rely on anyone, this makes you stronger even in a relationship because you won't always need your partner by your side.

Holly Riordan of All Women Stalk lists a few ways you can date yourself before entering into another relationship:

1. Go out alone: There are certain places that people consider "date spots," where they wouldn't dare to go alone. However, there's no reason for single people to avoid the places that couples frequent. You're allowed to go to the movie theater alone or to a fancy restaurant alone. Sure, some #people might judge you, but they aren't as secure as you are. You don't need a partner when you could have a grand old #time all by yourself.
2. Dress up: Most #people dress up to go out on dates. However, you don't have to wait for a #guy to ask you out to wear something nice. You can buy a sexy dress, do your #makeup, and then just lounge around the house. Of course, you should take advantage of the photo opportunities. If you're going to go though all the trouble of making yourself up, you might as well snap a few pictures.
3. Buy yourself treats: Flowers and chocolates aren't reserved for #women in relationships. You can buy yourself a #beautiful vase of flowers to decorate your house with. You can buy buckets of chocolate to eat when you're bored. Don't be afraid to treat yourself.
4. Leave yourself notes: It's sweet for a boyfriend to leave his #partner notes around the house, but you can create your very own notes. Write yourself a letter to #read whenever you're upset. Jot down compliments and stick them to your mirror. Put an inspirational background on your phone. Do whatever works.
5. Make a fancy meal: If you were in a #relationship, you wouldn't go out to eat every single night. Once in a while, you'd make some fancy food. That's why you should create an elaborate meal for yourself, complete with candles and wine. Then you can set a bath and enjoy your quiet night.
6. Buy a pet: Just because you're single, it doesn't mean that you have to live alone. You can find companionship with your very own puppy or kitty! There's no better way to learn self-love. When your pet scampers up to you after a long day and sleeps with you throughout the night, you'll feel like the most lovable person in the #world. It'll also help you learn responsibility and how to care for another living being, which can help when you eventually enter a romantic #relationship.
7. Learn what makes you happy: The point of dating yourself is to learn what makes you happy. Watch new genres of movies to see what you like. Visit new places to see what interests you. Try to expand your knowledge of the #world in order to expand your knowledge of yourself.
