I need some advice on how to be more thoughtful and romantic for my wife. he is a stay at home mom and I have no time to plan anything. Tips, suggestions, advice would be greatly appreciated. I give her back massages every night, and bubble baths are getting old. Thank you so much.

Hi there!

I'm not a stay-at-home mom, but I have lots of friends who are!

I think one of the best things that you could do is to give her a night off. Cook dinner for the night, get the kids in bed, etc. It may sound lame, but she'll be so happy at the end of the night that romance is sure to follow. :wink:

Other things that you can do?
- Spend a night playing a romantic game.
- Send her romantic ecards from work each day or leave her love notes around the house to find during the day.
- Surprise her with a babysitter for a day. This isn't really a romantic suggestion, but it's definitely thoughtful.
- Print out romantic coupons to give to her
- Get some of the gourmet body paints and have a fun night together :wink:

- Do you do a weekly date night? If not, you guys should definitely start! :grin:

That's just a few thoughts off the top of my head. I hope that maybe 1 or 2 work for you!

alb82278,
Poetry from an adoring husband means so much to a wife, I think.How about Flowers? My wife Loves it when I bring home flowers, they don't have to be expensive either,get them at your local grocery store, if they carry them.How about a babysitter and a night at the theatre?Plays and ballets have a way of sweeping the throes of mediocrity to the wind!How about leaving little (love)notes of the importance she means to you,in places throughout the house that she will find and read?Maybe you take care of the children and let her have a night out with her girlfriends to blow off some steam and stress?Bring home a take-out dinner and a romantic movie.Rub her feet.Read to her a romantic novel or her favorite book or a book, every night.Ask her about her dreams & fears.Encourage and support hobbies she might like to try or is involed in, ask questions and maybe even get involved yourself.Feed her different samples of food while she is blindfolded and have a laugh or two!

alb82278,

I work two days and stay home with my two boys the rest of the week. I would love massages and bubble baths from my husband - I think your wife is very lucky!

I try to be romantic as much as i can with my wife. I'll admit I have my weeks were I do almost nothing, but i also have my weeks were I think I do to much so i guess it evens out.

Things I've done for my wife.
1. Warmed up her towl/rob so when she gets out of the shower its nice and warm for her.

2.Make dinner:
This kinda doesn't cound for me because I do most of the cooking. But when I'm trying to be romantic I wip out the candles and wine.

3.Take care of out daughter for the night so she can rest.
Like the other night I took care of my daughter all night. I fed her, gave her her bath, and even got her ready and in bed. In the mean time I ran my wife a hot bath with candles and some wine with chocolate.

4.I leave notes for my wife on her car/stearing wheel.
5.Some weekends I arrange for her and her friends to go out baby free to do what ever they want.
6.Get the sitter to come over so I can take her out to dinner/movie.
7.Fill the bedroom up with balloons.
You want an air compressor for this. Doing this without one will take you for ever. I filled out room about chest high with balloons. Some with healium with strings to it looked even better. She loves this one.
8.Bake her her favorite desert.
You can buy it if you can't make it. Its the thought that counts.
9.Give her a massage.
I love giving my wife a massage. I shoot for about an hour. Massage from her fingers to her toes. The key to making this romantic is not pushing for sex afterwards because you have her either naked or half naked.
10.Put something sexy on for her.
All guys think that they need to dress up for us. Well, they like us to dress up for them as well.

These are just a few of the things I try to do for my wife on a monthly basis. Not all in one month but at least one a week. She really loves it and it makes her happy.

HELP!!
