How To Create More Romance
An
atmosphere of romance is always conducive to intimate
lovemaking experiences and women dearly love it. In creating
the atmosphere, see yourself as a great lover and let
your creative self step out of the ordinary and create
something magical, something extraordinary.
Romance
begins well before the first kiss. Men are often only
romantic and hug and kiss when they are in bed. For women,
romance starts much earlier. Foreplay to a man is kissing
her neck and breasts. Foreplay to a woman can be a bunch
of flowers or a phone call through the day telling her
that you love her. If you are fortunate enough to have
in your life a woman who loves you, I assure you that
you cannot tell her too many times that you are madly
in love with her. Ring her up many times before your planned
evening. ‘I’m just ringing to let you know
that I love you and I’m really looking forward to
our time together.’ It’s as simple as that.
And remember to touch her throughout the day in a loving
way, not just when you get in to bed.

Neil, who took one of our classes, told Diane and me:
‘Although I consider myself a good lover, I realised
after you talked about romance that rarely through the
day do I kiss or hug my wife Fay. I’m sure many
days go by, sometimes, where we don’t even touch.
I love my wife very much but I had fallen into the habit
of not touching her unless it was during sex. So I decided
to make it a practice that every time I heard Fay doing
something in the kitchen I would go in and touch her on
the upper back, give her a kiss, tell her something affirmative
and say, “I love you.” It amazes me that such
a simple thing has added so much to our love life again
and I’ve taken on the idea that I am a great lover.
What I’ve found is I’m enthusiastic now about
creating more ways to practise the art of romance every
day. Fay knows I’m doing it because of what I’ve
learnt here in the workshop, but she still loves it.’

Take
on the image of being a great lover and devise ways to
romance your woman. What is sexy and romantic to you may
not be to her. For example, imagine your woman coming
home from work before genitals, smothering you in kisses
and saying ‘I want you now. I’m going to give
it all to you tonight. I can’t wait.’ Sounds
sexy, doesn’t it? It does to a guy. However, if
you did and said the same to her, it could be a complete
turn-off. That might be hard to believe for anyone who
hasn’t lived with a woman.
That
dialogue is the stuff of which movies are made –
he grabs her breast and immediately she goes into ecstasy
and starts ripping off his clothes. These movies are made
by men or perhaps by women who have been seduced by male
sexuality and who have probably never had sex with someone
skilled in the art of romance or lovemaking.
In reality, telling your beloved that you’re pleased
to be spending time with her or bringing her flowers to
show that you care for her will turn her on much more
than grabbing her breasts.
A
guy once said to me: ‘Why didn’t God make
men and women think the same? It would have saved a lot
of messing around!’ I reminded him that women often
seem like aliens to men and although their needs sometimes
do not make sense to us, we can still win at the lovemaking
game by responding to them. A great lover will give his
partner what turns her on, not what he thinks will turn
her on. Give your partner breakfast in bed on the morning
of your special evening and when you come home, bring
a bottle of champagne.
My
suggestion is to make a special time for this romantic
meeting. Mark it on your calendar and set aside at least
three hours. People often make the point that it’s
not romantic if it’s planned. However it is my experience
that if you set a time it creates the opportunity for
spontaneity to happen. There is nothing romantic about
making love if the phone keeps ringing or the kids are
screaming or running in and out of the room. Once you
mark in your time
on the calendar, you can organise it so the kids are out
of the house, the phone is off the hook and the doors
are locked and labelled ‘Do not disturb’.
It
is especially important for busy couples to claim some
time for this special happening. Busy couples, couples
where both partners work in high-powered jobs, or couples
with families or couples in business together often do
not get to make love until late at night, and by that
time they often do not want to think about anything except
going to sleep. After years of this, their lovemaking
loses its juice, its excitement. They say: “Well,
I can’t afford the time!’ That is ridiculous!
May I point out that they find the time to watch TV; they
find the time to attend aerobics classes; they find the
time to go jogging; they find the time to read newspapers.
It’s simply that they have put lovemaking on the
end of their list.
I
strongly suggest you find the time now to create romance,
otherwise the cost might be your marriage …
It
is a ridiculous situation to put your selves in. Look
at your calendar – weddings, birthdays, social gatherings,
business meetings, even shopping times are written there.
Are all of these more important than romance? More important
than your marriage? They might seem to be right now, but
later on you may find your partner has been having an
affair. It need not come to that, but it is important
to get your priorities right. Mark off three hours every
week or fortnight on your calendar for time together and
do not allow anything to put it off. Make absolutely certain
that the time is set.
