Romantic Tip of the Week September 23
………………………………………………………
Another Romantic Tip of the Week brought to you by the TheRomantic.com newsletter — praised by media worldwide. If you didn’t sign up for this
service then your wife or girlfriend probably did it for you 🙂 Take the

This will be the last Romantic Tip for a few weeks as Athena and I are
heading off to Europe in celebration of our 100th anniversary (we
celebrate it monthly). Won’t be back for about 3 weeks. I know I
am not eliciting any sympathy here. Enjoy the tip — Michael

Out of Town Business Blues
One of my wife’s friends was boasting the other day that
her husband had been out of town for a week and a half and he
had already called twice! He called her on two different occasions
during the ten days he had been away. In other words, he called
every five days. Imagine how excited she would have been if he had
called every day or every other day!
How much pocket change and how many minutes does it take to
make a phone call each day to let the one you love know that you are
thinking of her (or him) while you are out of town? And how much
does it cost to send a card? If an employee is expected to call in to
the office every day to check in or see if he has any messages, shouldn’t
he be able to call home every night?
Besides making phone calls, another way to let your dearest know
that you were thinking of her while away on business is to bring back
some gifts. You don’t need to spend a lot of money and they don’t have
to be fancy. In fact, you don’t have to spend any money. Grab a
toiletry item from the hotel, a matchbook from a restaurant, a brochure about
the city you visited or other souvenirs from the trip. Then when she
asks you to tell her about the trip (and she will!), you can give her the
items, explaining where you went and what you did. That you took the time
to collect these seemingly insignificant items will mean more to her
than you could imagine.
Also, if you know in advance that you will be going away on a
business trip without her, you can plan on having greeting cards arrive
home several of the days you are gone. You will need to gauge ahead
of time how long it takes for mail to arrive from different locations
and plan accordingly. You may want to mail some from near your home,
some from work and perhaps some from your business trip. Typically,
a letter can go anywhere in the states within four days and postcards
a couple of days longer. Even if a letter or card arrives after you
have returned, your sweetheart will still be suitably impressed and will
certainly be boasting to her friends how you are such a fabulous catch.
