How to Make Her Happy (edited version) - Bring her cut flowers as a surprise as well as on special occasions. - Plan a date several days in advance, rather than waiting for Friday night and asking her what she wants to do. - Compliment her on how she looks. - When you are going to be late, call her and let her know. - Whenever you need to pull away, let her know you will be back or that you need some time to think about things. - When you've cooled off and you come back, talk about what was bothering you in a respectful, nonblaming way, so she doesn't imagine the worst. - Give her four hugs/kisses a day. - Call her from work to ask how she is or to share something exciting or to tell her "I love you." - When you are out of town, call to leave a telephone number where you can be reached and to let her know you arrived safely. - Offer to give her a back or neck or foot massage (or all three). - Make a point of cuddling or being affectionate sometimes without being sexual. - Display affection in public. - When holding hands don't let your hand go limp. - Create occasions when you both can dress up. - Let her see that you carry a picture of her in your wallet and update it from time to time. - Write a note or make a sign on special occasions such as anniversaries and birthdays. - Notice how she is feeling and comment on it-"You look happy today" or "You look tired"-and then ask a question like "How was your day?" - Take her dancing or take dancing lessons together. - Surprise her with a love note or poem. - Treat her in ways you did at the beginning of the relationship. - Open the door for her. - Touch her with your hand sometimes when you talk to her. - Show interest in what she does during the day, in the books she reads and the people she relates to. - Ask her how she is feeling. - Give her a kiss and say good-bye when you leave. - Laugh at her jokes and humor. - Create special time to be alone together. - Organize and prepare a picnic. (Remember to bring a picnic cloth) - Let her know that you missed her when you went away or she went away. - Tell her "I love you" often. You say I only hear what i want to. You say I talk so all the time-so. And I thought what i felt was simple, And I thought that I don't belong, And now that I'm leaving, Now I know I did something wrong cause I missed you. Yeah I missed you. Lisa Loeb & Nine Stories "Stay" ----- End Included Message -----
