THIS Is What a Woman Means When She Says You’re ‘Not Very Romantic’

Women love romance and its mysterious nature. There’s something about those intimate gestures of true love and deep affection from the one who gets our emotions flowing that stirs up our most passionate nature in an instant.

When a man goes out of his way to make sure his woman knows he was thinking of her when she wasn’t around and no special occasion needed to be remembered, it reminds her of just exactly why he made her swoon when they first fell for each other. Romance is what makes the love between two people so damn amazing. It’s what draws the distinguishing line between THIS relationship and all others in each of your lives.

Romantic expressions may be grand or expensive, but they certainly don’t need to be.

When a woman asks you to be “more romantic,” she isn’t asking you to spend more money, to do something spectacular, or pretend to be old-fashioned in some way you’re not.

Being romantic means going out of your way to express tenderness. It means revealing to her what you already know for yourself — that there’s something about her that brings out a part of you no one else gets to see.

Being romantic means that, as busy as you are, you will always make time — whatever time you can spare — to show her you are there for her and will continue to be. Being romantic means you are willing to put yourself in an awkward position at times in order to grow with her, for her, and for yourself. Being romantic means showing her that, even though you know she is capable of taking care of herself, you want to take care of her in your own ways —

There are endless ways to add romance and spice to your relationship in ways that remind her that you cherish, love and want her (all of which will be returned to you in spades!). Try taking a hint from this list of 25 loving ideas to show her you understand what romance means to a woman:
