How to do little things to keep that spark alive

Sometimes it just takes a little something to spark your own creativity, here's a guide of simple things you can do to ignite that passion. You too can share your good love story with us...

Things You'll Need

• Passion
• A little bit of time
• A little bit of playfulness
• A little bit of money

Step One

post it note love!

A NOTE A DAY

Buy a pad of sticky notes.Write a couple and keep them on hand and as your better half leaves for the office, slip one in his/her briefcase, shirt pocket or purse.

What to write on the notes? how about:

I can't wait to see you tonight!
I will be thinking about you all day!
As you read this note, I will be preparing myself for you!

The simplest of notes will work wonders and start getting your significant other thinking and daydreaming about you.

Step Two

 

PETALS...LOTS OF PETALS!

Petals make any woman, (even a man for that matter) go nuts.
Rose petals have forever been a symbol of love and passion, and they ooze a scent that tantalizes your senses.
So if something so simple is so romantic, why not use it?

How?
Here are just a few ways you can use petals...
by the way, florists will sell you bags of them or art supplies stores have a silk version- just as sexy, and reusable! The scent? not a problem -just get a rose spray and spritz it on.

* On top of ceiling fans and turn the fan on as they walk in (on low)

* Bring some to a restaurant and put them on the table

* Inside an envelope with a card or letter

* Floating in a bowl of water - with or without floating candles

* Placed in the book your sweetheart is reading

* Surrounding your mate with petals while he or she is sleeping

* In a crock pot with a little water for a beautiful smell as they walk in, the perfect preamble for a romantic??? 

Step Three

candles add a romantic touch

CANDLES

When matched up with step 2 (rose petals) you are in for the romantic ride of your life!
There is just something about a candle lit room that sets the atmosphere for romance...so go ahead set a beautiful table, two placemats, matching napkins and all, and bring dinner. But watch the mood lighten, the smile comes, and the night evolves into something special, all it takes is a little something!

Now for those who really want to bring on the romance...try a buying gourmet food from his/her favorite restaurant, or even cooking it yourself, there is no better way to say I love you, that with food.

Tip: get them what they like, in the colors they like...tonight is all about pleasing them, not you!

Step Four

A MASSAGE: 

Start out with a full bosy massage, but not the 5 minute (then you are all over them kind) this is the kind that will make them want you, but you grab their arms and keep on massaging, it's all about hightening senses.
Do you dare? Get a simple Body oil (Neutrogena has one that is a light sesame formula, it smells great and warms the body and hands). best of all you can get it anywhere.

By the way, remember the sticky note?
write one in the morning, saying:

Present this tonight at dinner and recieve a full body massage and...!
You will have them drooling all day.

Step Five

DATE NIGHT

The problem with most couple nowadays is the stress tha kids, the inlaws, you name it...it gets in the way of love and romance in a couple.

Some couplesthat truly love and adore each other have a date night, they make it a point to reserve one night a week (not a year!) for each other, and nothing gets in the way of date night. NOTHING!

Get it?

Overall Tips & Warnings

• Make sure you decide that you will do anything for your significant other...anything.
• Make sure you remember how truly wonderful your life is beacuse of them
• Don't try everything together on one date. So you overwork, overspend, and them decide not to do anything again for six months!

A kid's view on Marriage

What Exactly Is Marriage?

"Marriage is when you get to keep your girl and don't have to give her back to her parents" -Eric, six years old

"When somebody's been dating for a while, the boy might propose to the girl. He says to her, 'I'll take you for a whole life, or at least until we have kids and get divorced, but you got to do one particular thing for me.' Then she says yes, but she's wondering what the thing is and whether it's naughty or not. She can't wait to find out." -Anita, nine years old

How Does a Person Decide Whom to marry?

"You flip a nickel, and heads means you stay with him and tails means you try the next one." -Kelly, nine years old

"My mother says to look for a man who is kind....That's what I'll do....I'll find somebody who's kinda tall and handsome." -Carolyn, eight years old

Concerning the Proper Age to Get Married

"Once I'm done with kindergarten, I'm going to find me a wife" -Bert, five years old

How Did Your Mom and Dad Meet?

"They were at a dance party at a friend's house. Then they went for a drive, but their car broke down...It was a good thing, because it gave them a chance to find out about their values." -Lottie, nine years old

"My father was doing some strange chores for my mother. They won't tell me what kind." -Jeremy, eight years old

What Do Most People Do on a Date?

"On the first date, they just tell each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date." -Martin, ten years old

"Many daters just eat pork chops and french fries and talk about love." -Craig, nine years old

When Is It Okay to Kiss Someone?

"You should never kiss a girl unless you have enough bucks to buy her a ring and her own VCR, 'cause she'll want to have videos of the wedding." -Allan, ten years old

"Never kiss in front of other people. It's a big embarrassing thing if anybody sees you....If nobody sees you, I might be willing to try it with a handsome boy, but just for a few hours." -Kally, nine years old

The Great Debate: Is It Better to Be Single or Married?

"You should ask the people who read Cosmopolitan" -Kirsten, ten years old
