**MEN ONLY**

Most men really do want to be wonderful in bed but are too
embarrassed to ask for tips or advice so they end up being bad
lovers. Here is a great resource for men who are wanting to please
their wife even more or if they have “performance” issues (which
over 65% of men do have) where they can learn how to solve the
problem in a discreet way.

Falling for You
by Marisa C.
http://www.TheRomantic.com/

My fiance and I just recently became engaged on Thanksgiving weekend
(in Canada, we celebrate near the beginning of October), so this
fall season has extra special meaning to both him and me.

The day after we got engaged, we went for a romantic stroll through
the leaves and he told me how much he loves the bright red leaves.
This made me think of an activity I used to do as a kid… leaf
pressing. So, later that day when he had gone home to visit his
parents for a while, I went back outside and collected a bunch of
bright red maple leaves.

Back inside, I got out some wax paper and heated up the clothes iron
(low setting), put the leaves between the wax paper, and pressed and
preserved them (the wax from the paper prevents them from curling or
drying out). Later that evening, I presented him with a beautiful
bouquet of pressed leaves and told him that these “fall” leaves
represented how much I loved “falling” in love with him, and how
excited I was about spending the rest of my life with him. He’s a
fellow of few words, but the look in his eyes told me how much he
appreciated my love and effort for this little fall surprise. 🙂
