Romancing Your Sweetie - Even When You Don’t Feel Like It

So you’ve been together a few years and you don’t think you need to romance your Sweetie anymore. Is that what you really think? Well, you’d be wrong. The problem with a lot of men (sometimes women too, but mostly it’s the men) is they feel like they shouldn’t have to romance their woman anymore.

They feel like they already “paid the price” and that kind of stuff is for younger couples. Men get lazy. But, that’s what keeps couples younger. They give to each other – even when they don’t feel like it.

Think about it for a minute. When your mother gave to you when you needed something, it made your bond that you share closer. Do you really think that your parents always gave you love when they felt like it.

I have four children, and I can tell you that I have loved them many times when I was exhausted, mad, scared - you get the picture. I was not feeling “in the mood” for giving my kids love. The same goes for my wife. However, whenever I have given them love, understanding and compassion, it was something that deepened our connection. That is especially true of romancing your Sweetie.

Whenever you choose to lavish your love on your partner, it is never a gift given in vain. It is a gift that will always return itself a thousand fold. How do I know this? I’ve experienced it in my relationship with my wife. I’ve also seen it in other couples too. When you make a deposit in your Sweetie’s “Love Bank” you are making a smart investment. You may not see it that same day or night, but you WILL see it.

I remember buying a candle for my wife, along with some other gifts, and giving them to her over a nice dinner at a local restaurant on Valentine’s Day. You’d think I’d given her a diamond ring or something! It was just what she wanted at that time. She still remembers that gift to this day – some 5 years later.

It’s true that I didn’t “feel” like I could spend money on her at that time. But, it was worth every penny- and STILL is.
