1001 Ways To Be Romantic
A Handbook for Men – A Godsend to Women

Lame Excuses
“Real Men aren’t romantic.”
Sez who?? Somebody on a TV talk show? Some character in a movie? Your buddies? (Experts all, on matters of the heart, no doubt.) Let me tell you something: If Real Men aren’t romantic, then Real Men are lonely.
“Being romantic is going to cost me a fortune!”
As the Beatles said, “Money can’t buy me love.” It’s true. Money can buy you companionship, attention, sex, and status – but it can’t buy you love or happiness. Being romantic can cost you a fortune, but it doesn’t have to. There is no correlation whatsoever between the size of the sentiment and the size of the price tag.
“I don’t have time.”
Bull! You have 1,440 minutes every day – the same as everybody else. How you use those minutes is up to you. Yes, work is important. Yes, your golf game is important. But do you really need to watch that rerun of Gilligan’s Island again? The truth is, we all have time for what’s truly important to us.
“I forgot.”
That’s okay. Just don’t do it again. You’re allowed to forget occasionally, but not consistently. If forgetting is a habit, you’re sending a clear signal that he or she just is not that important to you.
