101 Romantic Ideas PART 7

IDEA # 61
Write an email story with your partner. Start the ball rolling with an email that
says something like:

Chapter 1:
This is the story of Pete and Kate who met at a friend's engagement party one
summer afternoon.
The email can then continue to develop the beginnings of a story which can
be completely fictitious or a combination of fiction and reality.
Finish your email by saying, "And now for Chapter 2, its over to you..."


IDEA # 62
Buy a kite and on a windy day find a park and fly the kite with your partner.
If you can afford it, buy a large kite that you control with two hand lines.
These kites are great fun.


IDEA # 63
When you and your partner are planning to go out for dinner, suggest that you
have an 'Adventure Dinner'. Here's how it works
Set the timer on your stopwatch to count down twenty minutes. Next, ask
your partner to choose a number between 5 and 10. Lets say she chooses 7.
Give your partner a coin and tell her that at every 7th intersection, she has to
flip the coin. If it is heads you will turn left. If it is tails you will turn right.
When your watch timer goes off you have to both keep a look out for the
nearest place to eat.
This is a fun way to get out and about and try new places to eat.


IDEA # 64
When you and your partner are going somewhere special, get your camera,
buy a new roll of film and wait for her to come out of the house.
When she appears, act like a professional photographer and go wild taking
pictures of her with the flash. While you are taking photos, bombard her with
questions as though she was a famous actress and you are trying to get a
scoop for the magazine you represent.
Not only is this fun but you will also get some great photos to look back on
together.


IDEA # 65
When your partner is sick at home, take a day off to look after her.
Rent some videos, make her some soup, wrap her up in a blanket and just be
with her.


IDEA # 66
When you are having dinner one night, ask your partner about the things she
has always wanted to do.
Later on, write these things down so you don't forget them and over time try
and help make them happen. For example she may say that one thing she
has always wanted to do is swim with dolphins. Find out where she can do
this and organize it for her as a special surprise.


IDEA # 67
Rent the video, "An Affair To Remember". Buy some popcorn, champagne
and chocolate covered strawberries and have a special film night at home.


IDEA # 68
Go to the drive in but instead of sitting in the car, spread a picnic blanket on
the ground. Light a candle and buy popcorn. Cuddle your partner and enjoy
the film.


IDEA # 69
Create a personalized magazine cover for your partner. To do this, get hold
of a good quality photo of her and a copy of a popular entertainment
magazine.
Take these two items to a print shop or graphic design agency. Ask them to
scan your partner's photo and develop a magazine cover with the lead story
being, "The 30 most beautiful women of 2003".
When you get the cover, stick it on the front of a real magazine and ask your
local shop owner whether you can place it in the magazine rack. Organize to
meet your partner at the shop before going out. When she arrives, tell her
that you are just looking for a magazine. Let her browse the rack and
discover her magazine.


IDEA # 70
Fill the trunk of your car with helium balloons. Drive to a romantic spot in the
country to go for a walk. The ideal spot is somewhere up high with a clear
view of the surrounding countryside.
Get out of the car and act as though you are about to set off for your walk.
Make sure your partner is closer to the car than you and then throw her the
keys and ask if she can get your jacket from the trunk while you tie your
shoelace.
When she opens the boot the balloons will be released. You can also place a
sign saying, "I Love You" on the inside of the trunk so that it will be revealed
when the trunk opens.
