Outrageous Love

Does your spouse like things a little over the top?  Maybe he or she loves things that are truly outrageous.  Or maybe it’s you that loves the outrageous situation or event.  Romance can be suited to your ‘over the top’ or ‘extreme’ tastes.  Be outrageous and do something completely unexpected in order to surprise and romance your spouse.  If you’re looking to overdo something slightly, do something traditional in a big way.  When you think of or come across a romantic idea, magnify it with your imagination and do it as big as you think.

Singing to your partner is one of the most romantic things that you can do.  Why not take your spouse to a karaoke bar and surprise (maybe even shock!) him or her by singing a song that has special meaning for both of you.   Enjoy him or her watching you with laughter and possibly tears in their eyes.  It is outrageous enough to never forget, unless you both hit the bars every week.

Think about something your spouse loves.  I mean that they really, really love.  If he or she loves Hershey Kisses, find the biggest glass jar you can and fill it with his or her favorite kind.  Mix and match flavors for a twist!  If you feel that the largest jar isn’t enough, remove all of his or her clothes from a dresser drawer and fill the empty drawer to the brim with his or her favorite treat.  Leave a little note on top expressing your love for your spouse.

Commit to making love as often as possible with your spouse for an extended period of time.  Change your attitude about how you view sex at the end of a long, tiring day.  Try looking forward to it and make sure you make love every day and/or night for at least a week.  Try to go for a month.  Among most married couples today, this is truly outrageous!

Set the timer on your watch or cell phone so that it goes off each and every hour.  If you know that he or she is on the computer all day, send emails reminding them that you love them.  Send a message on the cell phone or call your spouse just to say that you love them.

Hire a service that specializes in skywriting.  Have them write a special message to your spouse in the sky!  You’ll be outside when he or she sees your message.  Take a walk to the nearest pool, pond or lake and go skinny-dipping!  Be outrageously in love with each other!

Post-it notes can be addictive once you start using them.  Use them to go overboard by leaving post-it love notes everywhere!  You don’t have to make them all about love.  You can make them silly notes, romantic poems quotes, song lyrics, riddles, sexy and teasing notes or any other topic that works for you and your spouse.  You can post them all at once all over or you can pace yourself daily, weekly or monthly.
