IDEA # 1 If your partner is going away for a few days, tell her that you
are worried about her so you have organized a bodyguard to look after
her. Then give her a small teddy bear.


IDEA # 2 Buy a packet of glow in the dark stars and stick the stars on
the roof above your bed to spell out a message such as "I Love You" When
the lights go down, your message will be revealed!


IDEA # 3 On a special occasion, buy your partner eleven real red roses
and one artificial red rose. Place the artificial rose in the center of
the bouquet. Attach a card that says: “I will love you until the last
rose fades.”


IDEA # 4 Buy the domain name of your partner's name if it is available
for example www.TanyaJohnston.com. Create a web page containing a
romantic poem and a picture of a rose. When your partner is surfing the
web, casually ask whether she has ever checked to see whether her domain
name is taken. Let her type it in to discover her page. TheRomantic.com

IDEA # 5 Buy a stylish hand mirror and give it to your partner as a
gift. Include a card in the box saying “In this mirror you will see the
image of the most beautiful woman in the world.”


IDEA # 6 Take a book that your partner is reading and using a pencil,
underline letters in a section of the book she has yet to read to spell
out a love letter. For example in the following exert from a novel, the
underlined letters come together to spell out the secret message "I love
you" The palace was a labyrinth, their passage through it tortuous and
interminable. Initially they passed from building to building under the
sodden sky. Steve's feet ached; he might have laughed at himself, the
tireless traveler, grown too soft from his months in the city to walk
any proper distance. Abruptly the guards halted. The underlined letters
will make your partner curious and with a bit of luck she will write
them down. Spend time to encode a proper message such as "Dear Belinda,
I love you honey"


IDEA # 7 Have flowers delivered to your partner's workplace. She will
not only enjoy the flowers but will also receive comments and attention
from her office mates which will add to her enjoyment. TheRomantic.com

IDEA # 8 While walking with your partner on a weekend getaway, pick up a
smooth stone and say that you're going to keep it as a special memento
of your trip. Later, have a message such as "I Love Rebecca" engraved
into the stone by a jeweler and give it to your partner.


IDEA # 9 Drive into the country, find a grassy hill and lie with your
partner and look up at the clouds. Play the kid’s game of looking for
shapes in the cloud formations.


IDEA # 10 Get a piece of paper and some crayons. Draw a bright childlike
picture with a smiley sun and two stick figures holding hands. Add
labels with your two names pointing to the stick figures. Write "I Love
You" inside a heart. Next get a large formal envelope. Place your
drawing inside and type up a formal address label of your partner's work
such as: For the immediate and urgent attention of: Rebecca Jones Level
20 Collins & Smith Solicitors New York Mail it to your partner so she
receives it in the middle of a busy day. TheRomantic.com 101 Romantic
Ideas


IDEA # 11 Memorize one of Shakespeare's love sonnets and recite it to
your partner when you are in a romantic setting like a botanical garden.
Don't just suddenly start reciting poetry as this will just sound corny.
While you are cuddling your partner, ask in a joking manner, "So is now
a good time to recite a love poem to you?" She will probably say yes,
expecting you to come up with something of the "Roses are Red..."
variety. Instead, look into her eyes, smile and recite the sonnet while
you gently stroke her face. Try the sonnet below. If this is too long,
just memorize the first four lines and the last two. Shakespeare Love
Sonnet 18 Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely
and more temperate. Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And
summer's lease hath all too short a date. Sometime too hot the eye of
heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimmed, And every fair
from fair sometime declines, By chance or nature's changing course
untrimmed. But thy eternal summer shall not fade, Nor lose possession of
that fair thou owest, Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st. So long as men can breathe,
or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

IDEA # 12 If your partner has to work late, take a lunch box and fill it
with some of her favorite things such as chocolates, herbal tea,
cookies, a small teddy bear. Next, get a piece of paper and write
"Michelle's Late Night Survival Pack" Draw a big red cross below this
and stick the paper to the top of the box. Tell your partner to open the
box when things get really tough.


IDEA # 13 If you are walking by a park, visit the swings and give your
partner a ride. This will often bring back happy memories from her
childhood.

IDEA # 14 Leave a long stem rose where your partner will find it with a
note on it saying: "Thank you for coming into my life."

IDEA # 15 If your partner is starting a new job, buy a copy of "The
Sound Of Music" sound track. Tape the song, "I Have Confidence" onto a
tape and add your own message at the end of the song saying, "Good Luck
honey, I have confidence in you." Give the tape to your partner to play
on the way to work in the car. TheRomantic.com 101 Romantic Ideas

IDEA # 16 Buy a small decorated cardboard box, a sheet of colored tissue
paper, some massage oil and a blank card. Line the box with the tissue
paper. Place the massage oil in the box and write the following message
on the card: I know a great Masseur. For an appointment ring: (Your
Phone Number)

IDEA # 17 When your spouse has had a really long hard day, run a hot
bath for her. Pour some fragrant bath oil into the tub and gently bathe
her from head to toe. Carry her into the bedroom. Gently towel her dry
and tuck her into a freshly made bed with a kiss on the forehead.

IDEA # 18 For this idea you will need a portable CD player. If you and
your partner have a favorite song, get a copy of it on CD and take it
with you when you go away for a romantic weekend. When you are in a
romantic spot, ask your partner if she would like to dance. Place one
earpiece in her ear and one in your own and enjoy your private dance
floor. This technique is particularly effective if the romantic spot you
have chosen is somewhere where people would not normally dance, for
example, the top of the Empire State building at sunset or on top of a
mountain during a camping trip. TheRomantic.com 101 Romantic Ideas

IDEA # 19 If your partner has a pet that she adores, at Christmas, in
addition to buying a gift for your partner, buy a small present for her
pet.

IDEA # 20 Go for a walk on the beach. Trace out the shape of a large
love heart in the sand. Sit inside the heart and cuddle your partner as
you watch the sun go down.

IDEA # 21 Invite your partner to go for a walk. Get a back pack and pack
the following items: A picnic blanket, a selection of fruit in small
containers eg. strawberries, grapes, watermelon and kiwi fruit. Some
cheese and crackers. Some sandwiches. A small tin of caviar. A half
bottle of champagne and two plastic champagne glasses. If your partner
asks what's in the backpack, just say a jacket and some lunch. When you
find a romantic spot, ask if she would like to stop for a bite to eat.
Open your pack and remove the items one by one to set up your picnic.
The last item you remove should be the glasses and champagne.
TheRomantic.com 101 Romantic Ideas

IDEA # 22 If you play a musical instrument, create a romantic
environment in which to play for your partner. For example, let's say
you play the saxophone. Contact your partner's roommate and arrange for
her to make sure that your partner steps out onto the balcony of their
apartment at exactly 9.30pm. Drive to her apartment and set up before
hand. Place a large sparkler in the music holder of your sax and light
it as your partner steps on to the balcony. Play something slow and
romantic.

IDEA # 23 Use this idea if your partner is going to work and you are
staying at home for some reason (Perhaps you are sick or are working
from home). Say goodbye to her at the front door and then immediately
send an email to her work address. The email should simply say, "Miss
you already". The email will be in her in-box when she does her morning
email check.

IDEA # 24 If your partner has long hair, take the time to brush it using
long slow strokes. This is particularly effective after she has had a
shower or when she is getting ready for bed. TheRomantic.com 101
Romantic Ideas

IDEA # 25 On a special occasion like your partner's birthday, plan a
treasure hunt for her. The fun begins when you suggest going for a walk
on the beach. When you get to the beach, carry a small bag with you. The
bag contains a bottle that you prepared earlier. Inside the bottle is a
treasure map. To make the treasure map look authentic, burn the edges
with a match. As you are walking, slip the bottle out of your bag and
let it drop to the sand near the water's edge. You may have to pause and
kiss your partner to do this unnoticed. Walk a little further up the
beach then turn around and retrace your steps to 'discover' the bottle.
On the map have a dotted line leading from the beach to a nearby cafe.
At the cafe, your partner won't know what to look for so suggest that
you just sit down and have a cup of coffee. When the waitress delivers
the coffee, she suggests to your partner that she might find what she is
looking for under the coaster. When your partner turns over the coaster
she finds a key taped to the bottom. Obviously you will have to set this
up before hand with the waitress. Most waitresses will be happy to help
a romantic guy out with this type of thing. At the next stop on the map,
your partner finds or is given a spade. Then at the last stop on the map
your partner finds a large 'X' made up of two crossed sticks. She digs
and discovers a locked box. The key unlocks the box to reveal her
present. TheRomantic.com 101 Romantic Ideas

IDEA # 26 Invite your partner on a date by sending her a plain brown
envelope containing a tape. On the tape, record the Mission Impossible
sound track and then record yourself saying, “Your mission if you choose
to accept it is to make your way to Café Venoli, 123 Park Lane at 18.30
Eastern Standard Time. There you will rendezvous with a stunningly
attractive man wearing a red carnation. The future of the free world is
now in your hands. This tape will self destruct in five seconds.” Then
record ten beeps from a stopwatch and record yourself saying, “Would you
believe ten seconds…” Its corny but it usually gets a laugh!

IDEA # 27 Contact your partner's family and ask if there was anything
she always wanted when she was a little girl. For example if she always
wanted a porcelain doll, buy one for her birthday. She will not only
appreciate the gift but also the fact that you were thoughtful enough to
find out what she always wanted.

IDEA # 28 Organize a professional photo shoot to obtain a portrait of
the two of you as a couple. Frame the picture and put it somewhere
prominent. Remember to make sure you give your partner plenty of notice
so that she can get ready. TheRomantic.com 101 Romantic Ideas

IDEA # 29 Write a note saying "I thought of you today, and it made me
smile." Leave the note somewhere where your partner is sure to find it.

IDEA # 30 For Valentines Day, buy your partner a charm bracelet with at
least 14 charms. Remove all the charms and let your partner 'find' one
charm each day for the first fourteen days of February. On Valentines
Day give her the bracelet and any remaining charms.

IDEA # 31 When you and your partner are in a shopping center or airport,
stop at one of those booths that allow you to take an instant photo and
print them out as stickers. Choose a romantic background and kiss your
partner while the photo is being taken. TheRomantic.com 101 Romantic

IDEA # 32 If your partner has voice mail at work or on her mobile, leave
a message saying "Just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of you."
She will appreciate this anytime but especially when she is going
through a rough period.

IDEA # 33 Organize a mystery trip for you and your partner. Some travel
agents will organize mystery packages where the destination of the trip
is kept secret until you are actually on the plane or arrive at the
destination.

IDEA # 34 Buy some rose petals and place them behind the sun visor on
the passenger side of your car. Take a post it note and write, "I Love
You" on it and stick it to the back of the sun visor. As you are driving
to a romantic destination, look at your partner and tell her she has a
mark on her cheek. She will pull down the sun visor to use the mirror
and be showered in rose petals and see your note.

IDEA # 35 If your partner is going on a trip, pack a small present into
the corner of her suitcase that she will find when she is away.
TheRomantic.com 101 Romantic Ideas

IDEA # 36 When you and your partner are having an anniversary, buy two
champagne glasses and get them engraved with your names and the date,
for example: Mal and Kate 7 May 2002 Go to the restaurant where you have
made your reservations and request that when you and your partner arrive
that your champagne be served in your special glasses. This will be a
great surprise for your partner and a wonderful keepsake for you both.

IDEA # 37 On a special occasion such as your partner's birthday, buy
twenty-four red roses. Arrange to meet her at a specific spot in a
shopping mall before going out for dinner. Get to the shopping mall
early and position yourself around the corner from your meeting spot.
Ask a guy who is walking by whether he would mind helping you out. Give
him a rose, point out your partner and ask him to walk up to her and
say, "Happy Birthday Meagan" and give her the rose and then walk away.
Repeat this with eleven other guys. Choose guys who are not too good
looking and choose guys of different ages. A nice touch is to have the
last rose delivered by a small child who could even by accompanied by
his parents. After the first twelve flowers have been delivered,
approach your partner with the twelve remaining roses. TheRomantic.com

IDEA # 38 Always listen for things that your partner reminisces about
and jot them down somewhere. For example, perhaps she talks about the
ice cream that she had from a particular shop when she was a little
girl. When a special occasion comes along, check your list of things
that your partner talks about and try to recreate one of them, for
example, visit the shop and buy a tub of ice cream making sure that the
name of the shop is on the container.

IDEA # 39 Create a love montage by collecting some photographs of you
and your partner, some ticket stubs of places you have visited and any
other small odds and ends that have special meaning to you both. Take
these items and get them professionally framed in a three dimensional
montage. Alternatively, buy a frame and create a simple montage
yourself.

red felt. Find an old fashioned key and place it in the box. Next, get a

partner have shared together, for example perhaps you both work in the

at your workplace. Enlarge the cartoon using a photocopier and use
white-out to cover the cartoon text. Type up your own text that relates
to you and your partner and paste it in the appropriate places and then
photocopy the cartoon again so that it looks like your text was the
actual text of the cartoon. For an added touch, get your customized
cartoon laminated before giving it to your partner.

she has to flip the coin. If it is heads you will turn left. If it is

both keep a look out for the nearest place to eat. This is a fun way to
get out and about and try new places to eat.

magazine cover with the lead story being, "The 30 most beautiful women
of 2003". When you get the cover, stick it on the front of a real

out. When she arrives, tell her that you are just looking for a
magazine. Let her browse the rack and discover her magazine.

IDEA # 70 Fill the trunk of your car with helium balloons. Drive to a

Make sure your partner is closer to the car than you and then throw her
the keys and ask if she can get your jacket from the trunk while you tie
your shoelace. When she opens the boot the balloons will be released.
You can also place a sign saying, "I Love You" on the inside of the
trunk so that it will be revealed when the trunk opens. TheRomantic.com

"It is currently July 14th 2002. We have decided to make this video so
that we can watch it together on our 25th wedding anniversary." Then
have a section where you talk to the camera by yourself, telling the
camera how you feel about your partner and why you love her. Get her to
do the same thing. When you are done, place the video in a bank vault
and on your 25th wedding anniversary you will be able to look back in
time and reminisce about everything that you have shared.

IDEA # 94 If you are in a secluded spot near a beach or lake and the
weather is warm, go for an impromptu skinny dip with your partner.

IDEA # 95 This one is great for long distance relationships. It takes a
bit of organization but if you can pull it off, it is sure to be a
surprise that your partner will never forget. Organize to catch up with
her regularly over the internet using either a chat room or an Instant
Messenger program. Then arrange a secret trip to meet her without
telling her that you’re coming. When it comes time for your usual chat
over the Net, arrange for a close friend back home to log on using your
nickname while you position yourself outside her door. Phone your friend
on your mobile and be speaking to him in real time. Tell him to type in
the following sentence, “I really miss you honey, I wish I could be
there and just reach out and knock on your door.” As soon as he has sent
the message, knock on the door! TheRomantic.com 101 Romantic Ideas

IDEA # 96 Buy your partner a gold fish in a bowl and give it to her with
a card saying, “Of all the fish in the sea, you're the fish for me!”

IDEA # 97 Go for a drive either early in the morning or at dusk. Get a
CD/tape that contains sounds of nature such as Sounds Of the Rainforest
and play it as you hold your partner's hand and drive.

IDEA # 98 The day before your partner's birthday buy some helium
balloons, streamers and flowers and hide them in a closet. When your
partner has fallen asleep, string the streamers around the room and
bring out the balloons and flowers. Place them around the bed so that
your partner wakes up to a real birthday surprise.

IDEA # 99 Spend a leisurely afternoon with your partner in a large book
shop such as Borders where you can browse the shelves, share a coffee
and sit down to peruse your purchases.

IDEA # 100 If you can afford it, hire a sports car for a weekend. Pick
up your partner and give her a long white cashmere scarf to wear with
her sunglasses. Go for a drive along the coast with the top down.
