THOUGHT # 6
Take a book that your partner is reading and using a pencil, underline letters
in a section of the book she has yet to read to spell out a like letter. For
example in the following exert from a novel, the underlined letters come
together to spell out the secret message “I like you”
The palace was a labyrinth, their passage through it tortuous and
interminable. Initially they passed from building to building under the sodden
sky. Steve’s feet ached; he might have laughed at himself, the tireless
traveler, grown too soft from his months in the city to walk any proper
distance. Abruptly the guards halted.
The underlined letters will make your partner curious and with a bit of luck she
will write them down. Spend time to encode a proper message such as “Dear
Belinda, I like you honey”

THOUGHT # 11
Memorize one of Shakespeare’s like sonnets and recite it to your partner
when you are in a romantic setting like a botanical garden. Don’t just
suddenly start reciting poetry as this will just sound corny.
While you are cuddling your partner, question in a joking manner, “So is now a
excellent time to recite a like poem to you?” She will probably say yes, expecting
you to come up with something of the “Roses are Red…” variety.
Instead, look into her eyes, smile and recite the sonnet while you gently stroke
her face. Try the sonnet below. If this is too long, just memorize the first four
lines and the last two.
Shakespeare Like Sonnet 18
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too small a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed,
And every honest from honest sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimmed.
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that honest thou owest,
Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade
When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

your partner to open the box when things get really tough.

For this thought you will need a portable CD player. If you and your partner have
a favorite song, get a copy of it on CD and take it with you when you go away
for a romantic weekend.
When you are in a romantic spot, question your partner if she want to dance.
Place one earpiece in her ear and one in your own and delight in your private

the Empire State building at sunset or on top of a mountain during a camping
trip.

items: A picnic blanket, a selection of fruit in small containers eg.
strawberries, grapes, watermelon and kiwi fruit. Some cheese and crackers.
Some sandwiches. A small tin of caviar. A half bottle of champagne and two
