Come On Baby Light My Fire ....

Relationships aren't easy, by any stretch of the imagination. Even the best ones require effort and attention. Sometimes, whether by neglect or circumstances, things get stale, dull and you need to kick-start your relationship, add some spark. There are many things one can do to try to add some sizzle to that flame, from "date nights" to surprise seductions.

Just the other night, AL came over unexpectedly, much to my delight 'cos he was attending a out-of-town seminar earlier in the day. When he and I saw each other, our eyes locked for a moment, and he flashed me that devilish grin of his, the one that always makes me blush like a little girl. It was instant "whoosh". It took all of 5 seconds, and it happens all the time. That grin conveyed a message to me ... it tells me that he desires me, that he loves me, that he wants me to know. It's in his attitude.

He doesn't need to take me on a date night for us to connect, although date nights can be alot of fun. But date nights once or twice a week can't give you the kind of spark that comes from everyday efforts at showing your love, appreciation and desire. I like a roaring bonfire but I prefer a steady flame.
