One of the biggest reasons why women end a relationship is that their man loses his sense of romance… don’t let that happen to you. It may take days, months or even years, but sooner or later, the great majority of men forget their romantic side and tend to take their partner for granted. Unfortunately, a lot of men hardly notice this. Don’t think that just because you don’t notice, the woman in your life also does not notice.

Here are a few warning signs that indicate your relationship may be in need of a serious romantic makeover.

You buy her gifts for your own benefit.
When was the last time you bought her a gift and what kind of gift was it? Was it a household appliance or an ironing board for her to use on your clothes? Those gifts are not romantic at all. She may even think that you just want her to do more work at home.

The next time you buy her a gift, make it something that is truly for her pleasure and hers alone. Jewelry is a fine example. Whatever the gift, make sure that you include a card with a heartfelt message. Women always appreciate that.

You only kiss her before sex
If yes, then your woman believes that you only kiss her when you want sex. Not good. Women enjoy kissing the man they love, whether it’s sexual or non-sexual in nature, so give her regular doses of your kiss.

The flowers you bought her were from the gas station or grocery store.
When was the last time you bought her flowers? Probably on your anniversary, right? Where did you get them? Hopefully NOT from the gas station or some other cheap place like the supermarket. If you did, she probably noticed that too, especially if they were limp or smelling of fumes. Women love flowers, but not if they are given to her as a thoughtless, last minute resort.

Next time, put some thought into it and show her you care. Ordering flowers online is so much easier then frantically searching for a last minute bouquet the day of your anniversary, or worse yet, on Valentine’s day when they are all sold out. Women absolutely love to get flowers delivered - especially at work. It shows them their man remembered their special day ahead of time instead of just throwing something together last minute. Lucky for you, most flowers get delivered within one business day to ensure freshness. Something like this gorgeous 18 Red Roses bouquet is sure to make her feel special.

You never go on romantic walks.
When was the last time you had a walk with your significant other? I hope it was not the last time when you both took out the trash. Women love to take romantic walks with their man, but not to go out on an errand. Next time the moon is out, take your lady love for a walk and show her she is still the one who makes your heart race.

Your forget or don’t celebrate your anniversary.
How could you forget or not celebrate your anniversay! This is the one day a year when you are supposed to show her how much your relationship means… remember? Take her our to dinner…tell her how much she means to you…buy her a gift! Even if money is an issue, you have no excuse for not celebrating your anniversary. A simple card…or better yet, a love note on a piece of paper is practically free…but will let the women in your life know that she means something to you.

Did you know that it is believed that chocolate contains phenylethylamine - the same chemical that is released in your brain when you fall in love? Or that the sweetness of chocolate is believed to trigger the release of endorphins - that cause the same feeling you experience after making love? No wonder why women love chocolate!
