Do not greet your lover in the nude!Jan 23 '01 (Updated Jan 30 '01) Write an essay on this topic.The Bottom Line If you ever try to plan a romantic evening at home with your spouse, partner or boyfriend make sure you know they are coming home on time. Last year I decided to shock my husband with a romantic dinner and a night of pleasure. At my age this takes a great deal of planning. I worked all day on his favorite meal. Dinner would be served at 8 PM. Many votive candles were scattered throughout the house and our bedroom looked wonderful. I picked out a nice romantic CD and chilled a bottle of his favorite wine. After a long hot bath I covered my body in his favorite perfume. This man knows I mean business when he smells this perfume. I then climbed into bed and waited for his car to pull into the driveway. I waited and waited. The excitement I was feeling slowly faded away. Guess who completely forgot it was Valentine's Day. I was not upset when he finally walked through the door without flowers or candy. Was I upset that he didn't have a card hidden in his coat? No! I was upset that he was 2 hours late getting home and never bothered to call me. Most of the candles had burned out, I was now in my jeans and sweatshirt and his prime rib dinner was wrapped and put in the fridge. Thoughts of throwing the roast out into the backyard crossed my mind but then I remember what I paid for this piece of meat. Hi sweetie, sorry I am late but I lost track of time. What's for dinner? I just looked at him and said, "dinner was two hours ago, SWEETIE." I guess you missed it! What am I planning for this Valentines Day? Toasted cheese sandwiches with a beer on the side. Why do some men enjoy Valentine's Day and other's think it is foolish? After thirty-four years of marriage I am still waiting for a romantic Valentine's Day. |
