 A Creative Romantic Lives in You:
Why is it that so many
people believe that they don’t have time or take the initiative
to be romantic? Maybe most people don’t believe that they are
creative enough to be romantic. Everyone is creative! The definition
of being creative is having the ability or power to create. The word
create offers a much broader definition than most people accept when
it comes to the process of being able to come up with something original
or simply well thought out.
Gifts that are considered
to be traditionally romantic like candy and flowers are wonderful,
but sometimes you need something that goes one step further. If your
spouse enjoys flowers, you don’t have to settle for roses because
they can sometimes become unexciting after a while! Present him or
her with something completely original such as a daisy or another
flower where petals can be counted. Ask him or her to play the childhood
game of ‘they love me, they love me not’ and watch them
pluck the petals as they go. However, don’t allow for the possibility
of him or her arriving at the ‘they love me not’. Count
the petals before you present the flower to your spouse and trim it
so that there are an odd number of petals for the right outcome!
Arts and crafts used
to be a fun break from the monotony of the school day, but believe
it or not, it will come in handy when it comes to creative romantic
gestures. Instead of promising that you will love him or her forever,
show them. Take a piece of paper, ribbon or other material you choose
and write “I love you” on both sides from end to end.
Twist the paper 180 degrees and connect both ends of the paper until
you have mad what looks like the figure eight. Tape or glue to ends
together. You can present your love with a symbol that shows them
your love for them is an endless love.
Creativity comes in
many different forms! Being creative can mean creating an atmosphere.
If you want to plan the ultimate romantic evening but funds are low
or you simply don’t want to have to leave the house, shut down
the electricity and imitate a power outage (it’s up to you whether
or not you tell him or her!). You won’t have any distractions
or heat, so it is up to both of you to keep the other warm and entertain
each other.
Maybe romance is on
your mind, but he or she is going out of town. Did you know that people
on airplanes are typically hopeless romantics? Any flight attendant
would be more than happy to make sure that your spouse receives a
special present after the flight has left the ground. Simply approach
a crewmember after he or she boards the plane and they are usually
more than happy to oblige a hopeless romantic like you! (You might
want to make sure that the gift is unwrapped or keep it to a single
rose due to heightened security.)
Creativity doesn’t
have to come in the form of gifts every single time. A gesture like
getting up and dancing with your spouse when a special song comes
on the radio is quite creative and incredibly romantic! Whenever the
mood strikes you, allow your creative juices to flow!
Sometimes you may find
that you struggle with ways you can be romantic. You can always have
a backup plan or secondary plan of action.
