Oh wow now that would certainly melt my heart. What romantic things to do.

To me this shows love and affection and maybe this sort of thing can be learned? Though I do wonder if this is not already your nature to do, whether it would be forgotten over time.

Also if they are not so inclined and you have to ask them or teach them then it becomes as meaningless as when you get told I love you after you have asked if they do.

Now being attentive to your partners needs would not see a lot of men doing the things you describe here Im sorry to say. People have their own ways to show they care I guess, and not all seem to have that romantic streak that you seem to have.

Breakfast brought to me in bed, gee I cant remember the last time I had that pleasure?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts wish more men thought like you do. x :)

Some times It can be just some thing simple as unexpectantly bringing home their favorite desert and a few flowers. Or if they travel for their job when the are packing, and they are out of the room .Place a love letter and a small gift like a few peices of their favorite candy in their luggage to remind them of you. or on a carefree weekend suprise them with breakfast in bed.

Life is only as wonderful as you think it is.

Hey Neal,
¿
You're so right, that sort of attention is an ingredient for passion.¿ What other things can one do to charge up the passion for your partner?¿ ( is that yet another blog? )
1] a small note in a pocket
2] a flower
3] bringing home his/her favorite cookie/food magazine,milk,tea, WITHOUT being asked or reminded
4] a tiny kiss on the neck
5] a card in the mail
6] a simple hug
7] Your turn !!!
Nat

Okay passion, inside a relationship has so many definitions. As I age, I'm now 60, the men I've met along the way have changed with age as I have.¿ I never ever thought I even think about a relationship with a hot sexual passionate side.¿ There are so many things that can be done to "enhance" the intimacy of a partnership.¿

That being said, I have entertained both sides now. I've read and experienced a great deal of different issues. Viagar is not the answer.¿ Being loving, tend, wanting and have a passionate need for someone is sometimes not sexual at all.¿¿ Having the sexual side is what we've been taught to need, want and not live without.
I'd like to have that in my life, as well as a night of falling into his arms and disolving the world away, this is passion to me at times. As you pointed out there are many definitions for passion.¿ If you watch TV for more than two hours you'll see the sex in the media being sold.¿
As far as being passionate with any partner, no it did not work that way with me.¿ As far as learning to be passionate, learing to be hot and heavy, well I'd have to say, from my personal experience, it's in the mind. You can put it there using fantasy.¿
What's the line,¿ if you can't be with the one you love; love the one you're with.¿ Always hated that line in the song.¿¿¿ or the lightening striking song also, She can wait, the "virgin" while HE gets his kicks.¿¿ Not my favorite either.¿

I've gone on off on several tanginents I know.¿¿ Passion is a mind set, if you think you can...¿¿¿ If you close your mind you won't. Is it possible to set your mind to passion with any one?¿ I'd hope not, I don't.
