A Real Man's Guide to Valentine's DayValentines Day is all about making her feel like the beautiful, confident, special woman she is, and showing her how much you appreciate her being in your life. Women want to feel close, beautiful and special whereas men want...well you know what men want. I know what you're thinking, "I'd love to buy her lingerie but she wants candy, flowers, dinner, and cute stuffed animals" well let me tell you something, lingerie is the way to go. Lingerie cannot be consumed, or die, it lasts forever. And everytime she touches it she'll remember the night you drove her wild. Here are a few situations you can do with little effort and still get what you want for Valentines Day. Situation 1: Simple Beauty A Soft glowing candle lit bath room, rose petals on the floor leading up to a warm bubble bath smelling of her favorite body wash, you standing there with a wash cloth eager to help her wash any place she cannot (or does not want to *wink wink*) reach. Have a towel sitting on the counter fresh and hot from the dryer waiting for her to climb into, but wait there'e something underneath it. A rose sitting on top of a beautiful baby doll with a note that says why you love her and cherish her. You see the joy and love rise in her face as you hand her the lingerie and say "It's not as beautiful as you but I thought you'd look stunning in it". Watch her unleash her naughty side. Cue the adult music.
Situation 2: A little more effort and planning required Women like being suprised. They like to imagine what amazing thing you are going to do next. By now you should know: her favorite kind of food, maybe even her favorite restraunt, her favorite thing to wear, and what kind of lingerie she likes (hint: dig through her lingerie drawer). Trust me this knowledge is invaluable, if you don't know these things you have time to find out start asking questions, or paying more attention. Here's what you do: Before she gets home put the lingerie on the bed neatly folded under a pillow so she can't see it. Hide a bowl of rose petals in the room for use later. When she gets home from work have her favorite oufit laid out for her (remember to put your favorite pair of her panties with it). Tell her you're taking her to dinner and evything she needs is already laid out for her convience. Tip: Be ready when she gets there, or as fast as you can, seeing you completely dressed and in a good mood makes us move faster. Have reservations at her favorite restraunt at a logical time, meaning give her enough time to get ready at her normal pace, rushing her won't help you (some don't have reservations but you can call ahead that morning and have your name put on the list for a specific time). Take her to dinner if you can afford it let her splurge. Relax through dinner, have good conversation, pay attention to what she says, Do Not Let Your Mind Wander, pretend she is the only person in that room. Go straight home and tell her how glad you are that she liked dinner, so on and so forth. When you get home tell her to wait by the door with her eyes closed because you have more suprises. Go into the bedroom fold down the bed spread lay the lingerie out on top of the sheets, grab you rose petals sprinkle them on the bed and in a path to the door way, light a few candles and turn off the lights so that your mood is set. Go get her and lead her into the room with your hands over her eyes, kiss her neck as you take away hands and whisper Happy Valentine's day. Cue the adult music. You're thinking one of two things either "no way she'll like that its too simple" or "that's alot of effort just for one night". Here's some insight coming straight from a woman. What we want to know is that you love and adore every aspect of us from what we look like, to what we do and why. Yes you have to say why, trust me the "I dunno I just do" may have gotten you by in those first weeks, but now its time to bring out the the big guns. This is THE holiday to be completely romanced by the one you love. The more thought you put into it the better, and that means that BOTH of you need to get something out of it. And believe me guys if you do this right, you'll be reaping the rewards for months to come. It can even, although I'm not guaranteeing this, keep you out of the dog house for a few months. Just the memory of that night will have her swooning all over you, all over again, and you can't tell me you don't want that.
