How Do You Keep The Romance Alive?

Well, you need to realize that a relationship goes through cycles that change, and that the initial euphoria and excitement is not going to last for 3-4 years. After the first year, it changes and becomes like any other relationship with a sister or a parent. It becomes a very deep love committed bond. The only difference is that you have a sexual chemistry with them as well. You're going to have ups and downs, and you're going to have days that you might think you hate them.

If you're a woman you need to keep up your appearance. That doesn't mean you have to be skinny, but you need to make yourself look good, because men are very visual. Men like lingerie. You need to kind of charge them up. To men, the physical and the visual is very stimulating and they call that romance, although that's not necessarily what romance is. The rare man is actually romantic and likes to send flowers. A woman should not get upset when the man says romance is seeing you in G-string. That's just his definition.
