I enjoyed the little things. We would snuggle in bed on a Saturday and Sunday morning. I still can't think of anything I liked more than just holding each other. I would just hold him or just look at him - I called it "savoring" him.

Something that he used to do was get up from what he was doing and attend to the laundry for me. If the washer stopped and the clothes had to go in the dryer, he'd get up and do it for me.

It was a matter of necessity that he had to make dinner most of the time, because he got home from work first, but I still appreciated that he did it. When he was in the kitchen, I would walk up behind him, put my arms around him and either say something to him or kiss him.

I used to feel special around him.

As far as having b'fast brought to me, I would feel weird. I would never feel right being waited on like that. Making b'fast is cool, but I wouldn't feel comfortable having it brought to me in bed. But that's just me.

No, don't wake my ass up and offer me food in bed. If I'm still in bed it's because I want to sleep. I don't like to eat in bed, even when I was recovering from surgery I had no desire to be treated like an invalid and be served food in bed.

I'm not really into the cheesey romantic gestures. It just seems contrived and put on. Just be real. Something like what dim does (starting the car) would be awesome!

You non-romantic guys need some pointers.

The best way to melt her heart is to take care of her when she's sick. Bring her some food and medicine and flowers, or come over and cook noodle soup for her. Make her feel comfortable... spoil her... do whatever it takes. This is guaranteed to get you some action when she gets better (or even when she's still sick)

I've done this a few times and it beats EVERYTHING including surprise flowers, cards, and bubble baths..... well everything except a Chanel bag

I don't do flowers or cards or rom coms (action or horror), but cereal and tea in bed is warmly welcomed! When I'm sick, I prefer to be left to sleep. But last trimester of being pregnant, it was rough finding vertical in the morning with low blood sugar and lack of balance. Of course, SO didn't do breakfast in bed every day for me. But it was a nice treat. The rest of the day was pretty good, just the mornings weren't friendly. Put me in a much better mood for the day.

I think I've gone above and beyond for my bf. I've made him nice dinners, do his laundry, clean his room, and have always thought of him when I go shopping. However he doesn't do the same for me! Am I getting the short end of the stick? I would love having a romantic spontaneous guy who appreciates all I do!

Sorry, all your "romantic gestures" would put me on my guard, like I'm being played for something. There's a lot of candy and food involved, like I am being bought.

Also, I'm not a fan of restaurant dates. It's such a pressure situation, sitting there awkwardly ordering, waiting for food, staring at each other over a table making conversation while some waiter person who wants you to be fascinated his name is Lance hovers around, restaurants to me are ultimately boring.

But....defragment my hard drive, fix my tv/wii, pull my cables while I set up a new monitor ...and my heart melts like butter on the roof in July.
