A well-known fact: all women need romance in their lives! Whether you are currently in a relationship or you have been at some point, more than likely at least once you were served the famous reply: "why can't you be more romantic too" !?

But what is romance? Why isn't there a concise list of romantic gestures to pick one up when needed so that men can get rid of extra torment? The problem is, you don't know what to do! Is it romantic to take her out in the city or do you both want to spend a quiet evening at home?

One day it is so, another it is so! You could swear that what is romantic actually means what she wants to do that day! One day you'll hear that it's romantic to go paintball - it's just that she's in the mood!

Romance is an ambiguous notion, for one woman it may mean bringing her flowers and holding her hand when you sit together, while for another it may mean bringing food from the restaurant home on evenings when she is too tired to cook. ! Not to mention that the notion changes in the case of a single woman!

But one thing you know for sure: all women want men to be more romantic, they all sigh for a touch of romance in their lives! You can blame the evil influence of romantic comedies - in which you could swear that the male character is a eunuch, behaves so syrupy, or accept once and for all that women are a special species that you will never be able to understand. , no matter how many specimens you "study"!

A clear difference that shows how different men and women are by nature: their reaction when a problem arises - while men prefer to close in on themselves and analyze the problem in detail, looking for various solutions, women will not than to talk about it, to dissect it from all sides, until nothing remains undisputed! What has this got to do with romance? Have you ever had your girlfriend reproach you, for example, for not holding her hand when you go out? What happened next?

While you would have liked to explain to her that you still hold her hand, but it has happened a few times that you omit it, she packs up and comes up with another problem - for example, that you don't look at her for minutes in the morning when you wake up! Then, when you were getting ready to say your reply, she comes up with another dilemma and so on until you don't even know what to say!

And you will be the one who does not know how to communicate, the one who is not romantic at all! Because an important part of what romance is for women is communication, sharing emotions, and any banal thoughts! Yes, men are not like that, but they have to get used to it at some point!

So what can you do to get rid of the annoying "why can't you be more romantic" line? Limit yourself to the classic things, the ones that - although you personally find them useless and stereotypical, delight her!

Gestures that do not require much effort, but will show him how much you care: once every few days, bring him a flower - you do not even have to spend much, one flower is enough (and if you have somehow retained in during the endless discussions and what favorite flower it has, you won the tip)!

A good thing to know: stealing a flower from a garden is also considered a romantic gesture, you show him how spontaneous and loving you are (although the owners would have a different opinion). Another gesture: torment your brain and remember what sweets she prefers: candy, chocolate, whatever it is once every other day, bring her a sample of her favorite sweets!

But be careful, don't leave these things to chance: if you want to get the job done, secretly make a list of the ticked days in which to bring him a flower or chocolate and put on a reminder! Yes, it's not very romantic, but in the end, she won't know and will only see your cute gesture! Otherwise, you risk completely forgetting your decision to prove to them that men too - by men you mean you, you are just special - I know what romance is!

And from time to time, offer yourself to prepare dinner: this will turn her on her back and you will probably not have to hear too soon lamentations about how little romance there is in her life! Even if nothing good comes out and you eat french fries or if you eventually order from a restaurant, the simple gesture will impress you to tears!

But what is most important when it comes to romance: exactly those little signs of affection, gestures that should be instinctive, but which, unfortunately, the longer a relationship lasts, the less it gets worse: hold her hand, to hug her for no reason, to kiss her, to caress her hair… These gestures are worth more to a woman than a flower, more than chocolate, more than a pair of earrings!

In the end, you should know that romance in a relationship - these small gestures of affection and spontaneity (apparently) even if it seems useless to you, for a woman it means a lot! If your girlfriend can boast of having a romantic partner, then she will be happy! And a happy girlfriend has every interest in making her partner happy! So you don't have to make these gestures of affection feeling obligated, but think that you are doing it for both of you!
