I found it really interesting that last week I received an e-mail from
a guy who said my last two tips were kind of stupid and nonromantic.
He was way outnumbered by the people who really liked them. The point
is, romance is a personal thing and is neither right or wrong.

Just because you dont think something is romantic, that doesnt mean
your significant other will agree with you. And what is romantic
between Athena and me might not be your style. Don’t be a romantic
robot. Don’t simply repeat what I say and do. Use your heart and
your head. — Michael

MAGIC PUFFS
by Nancy Grizzle

I once dated a man who was attending college and was so broke he was
forced to be creative! We spent a lot of time at a nearby park,
talking about everything – making wishes and blowing the fluff off of
dandelion puffs (my mother always told me your wish would come true if
you could blow all the fluff off with one breath).

One day, as I sat at my desk at work, he walked in with a pot full of
dandelion puffs, all wrapped in florist foil. He had gone to a
florist shop and purchased some kind of fixative and some foil – gone
to the park, sprayed the dandelions, stuck them in some dirt, and
wrapped the pot in foil. He included a card that said “May all your
dreams come true”.

Although the relationship ended a couple of years later, I still
remember that as one of the sweetest gestures – romantic because
it was so personal and so exclusively “us”!
