The Middle East conflict is on everyone’s mind I am sure.  I’m praying
for God’s will (not what I think is the right thing) to be done.  For
those couples who are separated due to the current events, I am
offering a one week special discount on my 1000 Questions for Couples
so you can use the material to stay close.  I have no way of knowing
if you are apart due to the conflict so the discount will be given on
the honor system.  Go to http://theromantic.com/couples.htm

Keep the love and spread it.  — Michael

Last week’s contest on *building anticipation* brought in a lot of
great ideas.  I put the best 9 ideas on the website.  You can read
them here:http://theromantic.com/stories/anticipation/main.htm

This week’s contest is for you to pick the best story from last week’s
contest.  Can only vote for ONE.  I’m fairly positive that one
particular story will win hands down, but I would like to see if my
subscribers think the same way.

Everyone who votes for the most moving *Building Anticipation* story
will be put into a hat and I’ll chose one person to win a shopping
trip though my ever growing PRIZE VAULT, filled with books, several
board games including Romantic Sensations, An Enchanting Evening and
others, CDs, dance lessons and other fun stuff at

Recipe for Romance
Anonymous
http://www.TheRomantic.com

This takes a lot of work, but it’s worth it.  I went to an antique
store and bought an old wooden recipe card box.  I took a wood burner
and on top of it burned my wife’s name and some flowers.  Then on the
front I wood-burned “Today I love you because ”

The first card in the box talked about the age and beauty of the wood,
like our marriage.  And it promised there were far more reasons I love
her than this box could ever hold.

Every day since that day (several months ago) I have made a 4×6 card
that started with the words, “Today I love you because ” Some reasons
are funny, some are serious.  Some reflect my mood for the day.

Before I leave the house every morning, I leave a card somewhere I
know she will find it.  Like in the refrigerator, in her car or purse,
or hidden in the morning paper.

But this exercise has two very wonderful benefits:

1.  It forces me to think hard about why I really do love my wife
today.  Any man who spends this much time thinking about why he loves
his wife will surely start treating her like the treasure she is.
(Women can do this for guys too).

2.  It may take a long time, but by golly, she’s eventually going to
believe you.  Just hang in there.
