get your partner a professional massage

 Buy your partner a professional therapeutic massage. If

you are concerned about whether the massage therapist is

ethical or don't know of one in your area, you could contact the

National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and

Bodywork by putting that term in your internet search engine

and getting more information about massage therapists in your

area. Or ask around and find out who is good. The thing about

this is that there are MANY kinds of therapeutic massage, and

some kinds appeal to some people and other kinds appeal to

others. The key is to find out what your partner really likes and

get them what they like!

What does your partner think he or she does poorly? Compliment them on their efforts anyway

time for you to initiate sexually?

If you don't normally do so, go ahead and take the

initiative sexually if that is something you know your partner

would like. Nothing says I find you attractive better than

initiating with a partner who is longing for that.

20. What does your partner think he or she does really well?

Compliment them on that, to say you notice what a good job

they are doing.

Start a conversation with your partner...

Start a conversation that your partner ordinarily is the one

to start. You start it instead! He or she might be a little

flabbergasted at this one (but in a good way!).

Love is something eternal - Vincent Van Gogh

There's a part of every love relationship that is about the eternal.

And a part that's focused on the little "problems" of today.

Which are you focused on?

her. Yes, I mean an actual letter, with a stamp and all. It

doesn't have to be long or involved, just sending the letter is a

nice gesture in itself.

14. Make a greeting card of your own with a couple of

pieces of index card, with a message that says I hear you

that is about something he or she likes. Make it funny and

thoughtful. Example: Dear Ralph: Here s hoping you really

enjoy Sunday s Football Game. May your team win! with a

picture of a football or a cutout of a team in action. Example :

Dear Jeannie: Here s to thank you for that wonderful lasagna

you fixed last night. It was fantastic. You are a great cook.

Only you could know these things, you could never buy such a

card. It doesn't require artwork at all, just write it down.

Over the next few days I'm giving you the keys to a very special kingdom: a place where simple acts of kindness make a huge difference in how you and your partner feel toward one another.  Here's today's:

barnesandnoble.com and look under types of music that your

partner likes and enjoys and look for an inexpensive CD in their

presents).
