ROMANCE IN A RELATIONSHIP

The ending sound track for RIO the movie, is amazing, the song is sung by a man who is bragging about this woman whom he claims to be his and how he considers himself lucky to have gotten her. Ok, yes its sentimental and mushy, but isn’t that amazing. Do men brag about their women, do they extol their virtues (I don’t thinks so but prove me wrong)? I mean from what I have seen and also experienced its more of that after a man has caught a woman, they are no longer as interested...yes I know for men it’s all about the chase but still. For women Romance is everything, it‘s the spice in food. It’s the icing on the cake. It’s a good game of sport. I have many “boys” some good for me some not so good, but at the end of the day; they all come to one conclusion. Aaaaaah si ni wangu, haendi place. Be it dating for months or years, be it marriage, no matter how many children I bear, a woman should always be romanced. It’s not negotiable, romance should never fade off or for that matter end. I hope I don’t end up sounding like another superficial girl for saying this, but please shower me with the affection that you did when we first men, give me the flowers that I love so much. Buy me my favorite sweets. Take me out for dinner or even better yet, give me our alone day (intimate Reservations). Please don’t be repulsed by the sight of me in sweats or when I have folded myself like an embryo when am cramping, be nice and bring me a hot water bottle or rub my back. I want to play with your hair as you drive, surprise me with a kiss, in a random empty elevator. Sue me, but I want to laugh so hard that I can’t breathe. I want those weird, sweet and confused jokes that give me a random smile. I want to get on the couch with you and watch a movie. Yes I expect fights (and still when we go to bed, you will hold me close) and yes I am not expecting a garden of roses and don’t get me wrong, am not asking or expecting perfection. This is ’s not a schedule where if this doesn’t happen on Friday ati I will be mad. The whole concept of Romance is that its spontaneous, it’s unexpected but the message always is baby I thought about you. Is it too much to ask that, 10 years into a relationship I would still want to get weak knees after a kiss. The Passion should not be let to fizzle out in a relationship and this is fueled by romance. So I f you are my “boys “ (or maybe not) and you are reading this, go to your woman and find the things she likes and once in a while surprise her. If you are a chic reading this, no problem, forward this to his inbox or even better yet tell it to him. If you are mine and you are reading this, Please don’t ever let the romance fade………………………………………….
