Just Because
Little Things That Mean A Lot Just Because are two of the most powerful, meaningful, romantic words you can speak when your special someone asks you "why"? When there is no expected reason to be romantic that speaks volumes about how much they mean to you and how much you think about them. Those two words instantly tell someone that you were thinking of them for no reason other than just because you wanted to.
Birthdays, anniversaries, valentines day, holidays, special events... those things you do on those days do have meaning, so don't stop doing those.
The things you do just because usually have more meaning because it truly shows that you think about them beyond when you are expect to. What could be better than that?! I can't think of many things, if any.
Excitement and Sizzle...
My philosophy on romance is that the occasional thoughtful things you do mean more than if you were always romantic. That doesn't mean always romantic doesn't mean something. It does.
However, occasional romantic may mean more - like an unexpected gift. When you get used to something happening all the time it can become routine and lack the excitement and sizzle of occasional romance.
|   | If you have a partner or special someone who is always romantic, and if that is what you enjoy, congratulations! Chances are, however, that you have someone who is occasionally romantic or not at all romantic.
The occasional romantic should become familiar with just because to give those occasional times more meaning. For the "not at all" romantics out there, send them a link to this page and jump start the romance. Remember, don't leave romance to chance. If you want it, get it. |   |
There is a saying, little things mean a lot. It's the romantic, just because little things you do that put more sizzle into your romance...
Romantic Just Because Little Things...
Does she/he like flowers? Keep your eyes open for wild flowers (please respect private property) and bring some home. If you live in a city or otherwise don't have access to wild flowers think about finding a florist or a street vendor for a bunch of mixed flowers.
Compliment your special someone in public, in front of his or her friends, family, or coworkers. Make it meaningful and sincere.
Hold hands in public.
Turn off the TV, the computer, the cell phone, the lights... light some candles, pour some wine, and talk. Guys, maybe you ask her how her day was, and just listen. Don't try to solve her problems. Just listen.
Make life easier for them by doing something for them they put off doing. After coming home and seeing my just-washed vehicle my wife mentioned her car needed washing but by the time she got out of work all she wanted to do was come home. Since I work at home and have the freedom to do so, I go to her work and wash and wax her car so she doesn't have to think about it.
Pay attention. When my wife shows interest in a particular song as we are driving around I make a mental note. Later, sometimes days later, I check online and see if I can find it. Usually I do and she gets the song on her ipod. She is happy to have the song, and she is happy because she knows I pay attention.

Side Note: When I sat down to write this I started by looking online at what everyone else was saying on this subject. I was pretty disappointed at the things people pass off as being romantic these days. One man said he gives chocolates because it shows he doesn't care if she eats them all and gets fat. What?! Is that romantic? I quickly realized I wasn't going to find any answers online. I had to sit down, offline, and think of my own experiences of little things, of romance just because, that are meaningful to me.
