Women need to know how to romance a man the same way men need to know all about using tampons----simply put THEY DON'T have the need!!

oh i dare to disagree; i too have needs, sometimes even salacious ones!
there are untold thousands ways to romance anyone.

just think a bit, water is but only one amazing and effective tool; well for me anyway.
a large heated ceramic pottery piece with almost hot water scented and infused with oils and a nice comfy spot to place your lover so as to bathe their feet in is nice for both; allow yourselves uninterrupted good bit of time; an hour should suffice for a decent foot and leg massage but i have a distinct foot fetish...

ever given someone a bath, in complete darkness while you are fully clothed, or wearing something silky yourself as you allow yourself to tactually please your partner? personally, i prefer to forgo any candles and have a very soft light wafting in from an adjoining room.
of course there's a lot to be said for scent. both on you, on them via any good infused oils. ahh dare i go on, there are so many of a plethora of ways to please.

my advice for those not knowing how to show their feelings is to get a copy of kama sutra or tantric tarot to learn together. it isn't work if it feels good is it?!

sheesh people any good emollient lotion, potion, cream or oil works wonders, it's not rocket science...

i don't dare say what really works best...

Here's my idea or Romance....

It's a blistering summer and I have several meetings in my suit. I'm sweating like a sow and I come back to the office before taking off to yet another meeting...

At my office, my significant other has taken it upon themselves to bring me a clean shirt.

So it didn't matter the circumstance, she was just sensitive to my needs.

I gave some advice to a co-worker who was kicking herself because she didn't know what to get her husband for their anniversary. I simply asked "What does he like?" - She replied " Wrestling and Porn" So we went to the store, bought both wrestling and porn mags and couriered them to his office... He got them and opened it up in front of his co-workers... The President of his company told him he had a special wife because she could see he humor in that, the women in the office told him that he was very lucky because she wasn't the jealous type... It was the best sex they had ever had, and til this day they tell that story.

I was recently quite shocked when I learned that this great guy I know has never been romanced by a women. NEVER. That's sad. Ridiculous really. No wonder he's never married ~ no one enticed him. LOL Seriously ~ it's a two way street. And it's important. JMO

"Hm, I'd say a lot of us ladies know how to do romantic things for a man, but a lot of them just don't know romance when they see or experience it...No, really, I 'm serious, I have never encountered so many clueless men as I have the last several years....I bake and do other things and they act like it is nothing...Guess there are just too many mama's boys or spoiled men...I have platonic friends and neighbors who are more appreciative...."

Maybe that's the wrong way to romance a guy. If your tactics aren't working, is it the men who are wrong or you for assuming that one thing would work for all men?

(Msg 323)You know what...reading through these posts it seems to me that most women DO know how to romance a guy but there is a common thread through all of this....

Men dont want it....

I know how to romance a guy....I'm just never given the chance to.


Fiery~D, I checked your profile. I think you may be scaring guys way with the picture with the "eyes" tatoo and where it's located. The expression gives the appearance they're saying, "Hey! What are you doing there?!!"

Hmmmm.... I dont know bout the rest of the ladies on here...but I try to "romance" my partner (when I have one...sigh) about as much as I would like to be romanced....letters, love notes, poetry, dates, whatever....little surprises...from my experience they enjoy it just as much as we do...and tend to give it back pretty well when they're receiving.....grin...

I dont know about other women but I love to romance a man to death! I just love everything about Romance and go to grate lengths to do so. If im really into him I can sepnd hours in a store like Victorias S. just looking for the right outfit or Ill hit Bed and Baths and shop unitl I drop! I get the food, wine,music,etc toy's wink, wink, what ever it takes to have a garte time when Im done for the night he will reamember it always thats how I like to Romance a man sock off to a point where he goes remember that thime when you did this or that or how you put on this or took of that love it love it I just love it! It's so much fun and I think people should spend more time Romancing the hell out of each other and life as we know it would be one heck of a ride!.

Ok let me get this strait.

A female would actually get off the phone with her friends or sisters or mom long enough to ..... to even notice her husband?

What is this female to male romance that is being talked about?

Would she even ... gasp ...... would she even like make him feel desirable or would that be too extreme?

I am a very romantic person, I've done the note thing, were there is a savanger hunt and whip cream at the end, I've done the show up at work with a hot lunch and a trench coat thing. Ya, now I'm divorced. I know not all men are like this, I've meet some nice romantic ones, but you gotta find the right person that would appreciate all that stuff and will reciprocate in return. Know what I'm sayin'

I think the question confuses me, but it's certainly thought provoking.

I always thought it was the man who did the romancing and the courting. But that's not to say that the woman can't be affectionate and attentive in return. I love to give back, and I do so with great pleasure, but I can't picture myself courting a man. Maybe I misunderstood the concept of 'romancing'.

Or maybe I'm hopelessly old fashioned. After all, I still believe the man should pay on dates. Dark Ages, right?

I am afraid that purchasing ties, clothes, and fixing dinner just dont' work on me (but I will be very grateful and let her know it). I like conversation mixed with flirtation and and teasing. I also enjoy slipping into period roleplay because it turns love into an act and an act into love. This is all hard work and demands a great deal of improvisation, but, most importantly, it is engaging.

Nothing is more romantic than thoughtful and completely off-the-cuff surprises.

I've seen many posts here on this AWSOME topic. But there is one thing I haven't read, or at least no ones brought up yet. Is there a chance that maybe women should romance their men differently than they themselves are romanced?
I work on a construction site, outside all year, surounded by men, addmittedly not the most articulate bunch what I hear, (and sometimes feel myself), is the following
"All I want is someone who understands what this job does to me, and not break my ball everynight about being tired"

"My wife works in an office, I carry around a houndred pounds on my back all day, and all she wants if for me to rub her feet. What about my feet?"
The list could go on and on, I think I'll leave it at this, you as a woman may love scented candles, candle light, and pillow talk, but to a really large number of us, all that means is an over powering flowerey dark room, with someone reciting shakespear in their ear.
just a thought but most of us don't need that type of enticement.
just a thoght, I'll crawl back into my cave now.
cheers.

Wow. I hadn't read that post but I can't believe it either! Romance is a two way street! I love to write little letters, notes, poems, etc...I love doing little special things to surprise a man...and yeah, even give him a rose once in a while....cook lovely meals by candlelight...

Its not that hard...and men do appreciate it as much as we do!

I've been writing to mine...

Cute little hello's & I miss you's..

I've even typed to him while talking on the phone. I've started the email with something like.. "I'm talking to this Handsom man, who doesn't know that I'm writing this." "I won't tell him what I want to do with him while we're on the phone, but I'll tell you, here now.." Then I go into what ever is running through my mind at the time.. He seems to like it.. He says it gives him something to think about after he reads it..

We also send little texts back and forth all day too.. The closer the end of the week gets, and we are going to see each other, the sexier they seem to get.. lol
It's Fun !! He's an awsome guy... So far he seems to be the one !! We shall see...

I have never had a man plan a romantic interlude...however, I have done the following:

A hotel suite complete with a jacuzzi...before his arrival I set the stage....

Candles everywhere, favorite wine chilling in the fridge, cd burned with our favorite music, hundreds of red and white rose pedals sprinkled all over the floor leading from the front door to the bed, room service and a sexy outfit complete the scene.

When he arrives:

he will go to take a shower and find a love poem on the bathroom counter,

we have dinner and wine...soak in the jacuzzi....the rest is history....

That is a very, very, very valid point! I have always been the romantic one but have never had a girlfriend who showed a romantic gesture at all. That'll be something for me to ponder...

Putting the foot thing aside for a moment, I think you bring up the best way for either gender to romance and that starts with attitude. Nothing is more of a turn on than a woman who 'wants' to be with me and however she wants to display affection is going to work. A foot massage with warm oils is very nice.

Exactly! Equal treatment and equal attention. I just came out of a one sided thirty year relationship because it was not equal. I was the one wanting to keep doing the romance, but after a while of no return, no refund it became to hard to keep it going. You are spot on. You need someone to appreciate and be appreciated.

Honestly...I couldn't tell ya. I've tried to do romantic things for guys before, it just never seems to be their thing...I'm also great at buying gifts for anyone and everyone except the guy I'm involved with...I think maybe it's because I feel so awkward at it, I actually end up BEING awkward at it.
