Planning an important evening with your lover is probably one of the most romantic and fantasizing things that you can do.We're under paid, over worked, and exhausted because your 40 hour salary job just turned into 60+ ....so what happens? Your exhistence becomes a pattern.
You get so caught up in the everyday hustle and bustle that you lose perspective of the things that really matter, yet actually so easy to obtain because you get caught up in the go go go swirl of life. The every day routines become your reality, proof that you're losing track of what is important, and before you know it, too much time has passed and you find yourself like hundreds of other feeling alone, unwanted, or undesired.
Hold on, and apply brakes NOW! Don't let this happen to you!! We get so busy that by the time we get home at night all we can think about is watching our favorite show, or sporting event, grabbing a quick bite which is generally something unhealthy and includes the words "happy hour" because we're too tired to actually stand up in our own kitchen and cook something. While we are doing all of this we are visualizing the thought of sleep and the moment we get to our bed and our head hits the pillow.... "Wham"....and like that old 1976 vintage Pat Travers Bands sang..." Boom Boom Boom, Out Go the Lights!"
This cannot be....learn how to set the mood! If you want to see the fizzle come out of a relationship or marrige, this is the pattern that you need to learn how to stay out of. Don't become that statistics called "boring couples syndrome" that so many are labeled. Be the couple that makes the time to share together a few hours at least once a week if nothing more....No, I'm not talking about getting a "quickie" either! Some people choose a night out for dinner at their favorite restaurant, some go to the movies. It's that connection, the touch of his/her hand touching yours, rubbing your neck, or giving you that soft kiss......
I want to be pampered at home with candles, soft music, a glass of wine, simply delicious chocolate covered strawberries, a home cooked meal, and hot bubble bubble bath to unwind, relax, and endulge. There is nothing more romantic than a couple that gets reacquainted in the tub after a long week of work and stress....passion and desire build, hormones start working overtime and before you know it they take the romance straight to the bedroom where there is ground stomping, head board knocking, biting, spanking and everything that goes on in between! Make the choice to make your partner your number one priority....my guess is that she or he will prefer quality over quantity any day.
I haven't had headboard banging in years....how does one bring this spark back? My wife has lost her fizzle :(

Nice, a great idea. My husband and I need that few hours to escape. Our kids range from 11-21 and we have 5 of them. What do you recommend for music, and wine? I can do the rest, just need some help here from someone who obviously knows.
