I''m really good at coming up with romantic ideas for other people, but I can never come up with ideas for myself(everything I think of just doesn''t seem good enough to me

). On the twentieth of this month, March, it''s going to be my 2-month aniversary (of dating, I''m not married..

) with a girl I''ve been .. err... in love with for almost four years. I haven''t done many romantic things with her, so I really need something astonishing. Any ideas, any help at all, would be great

Thanks. (If it helps to know.. I''m one of those unpredictable guys. I can act shy at one point and then be completely nuts and outgoing at the other. ) ------------------------------ Simple DirectMedia Layer:

Two month aniversery? 4 years? Well, try taking her to a cyber game place. (TRUST me on this) and make her play CS. Then, customize your tag to say, "NAME- I love you". Tell her to follow you to the taged place. This will get her attention.

Candlelight dinner.

Champagne (if you can afford it) or wine if you''re old enough to drink.

Chocolates.

Litter a room with roses.

"Hide" (in that she is expected to find them all) a bunch of little cards/notes all over her normal daily path, and then culminate in a sizeable one with some romantic message.

Jewelry.

A teddy bear (women seem to have some strange fascination with teddy bear''s) or two. Or three...

I just hate women. They piss me off and have been fucked over by a few of them. The worst part is they think they can get away with all kinds of shit because they are a girl. They hate me because I won''t play their fucken games. It saddens me to see how many guys are suckers for women and do anything they ask.

Hmmm sounds like an idea. I guess that would be a small part of the day

You''re behind the times. You obviously missed Tha_Hoodrat.

That statement could be construed as perjorative, that you somehow infer that "ghetto rats" (a perjorative statement of itself) can be characterized as twinkie-eating, do-rag wearers. You deny their complexity and the fact that they may prefer bandanas, baseball hats, to sag their pants or "pimp."

Hopefully, you''re not taking me seriously.

So you''re channeling your feelings of frustration and rejection into anger against all women rather that seeking methods of improving your social skills so as to experience less frustration. Hmmm... This infantile behavior is often a result of insufficient maternal love as an infant - from the infant''s perspective. If, for example, you were bottle- rather than breast-fed, you may have considered this a form of rejection. This would then result in a classical Freudian fixation on sucking breasts due to residual anger at denied access (it is also apparent in infants weaned too early), and any relationship with a woman which does not result in mammary-oral gratification only deepens your rage.

Based on this prognosis, I think your only solution is to purchase a pair of gratuitously large artificial breasts (preferrably of the water-filled variety, as market research and episodes of HBO''s Real Sex show them to be more satisfying) and suck them nightly. Doing so will satiate this nascent subconscious need, and allow you to interact with women normally.

In other words, you''re fucked up.

Shit, now I''ve inspired myself to write an opus to the succulent beauty of natural tits. (For the record, I have zero experience with silicone and other imitations).

It wasn''t for you, genious! I don''t drink, but my ex enjoyed an occasional glass of wine, so I ordered her a bottle on her birthday (at a real classy restaurant). I kinda had to compensate for the fact that her parents didn''t call her that morning (she puts a lot of emphasis on birthdays and was real upset about that).

No, that''s not why she''s my ex.

My birthday... I''ve forgotten my own birthday before; it''s my family that reminds me when they come wake me up at 6:30 with shouts of "Happy Birthday!" Then there''s prayer...

I would never, ever sit and watch someone I cared for drink. Both of my parents are psycho alchoholics and I''d really hate myself for turning someone I love(my girlfriend) into someone I hate(my mother.. and father).

Whether it''s for me or not, it''s still bad. One glass is all it takes for some people to become dependant...

Oh, shut up! Alchohol is actually good for digestion, and it''s not cocaine. You can drink socially or occasionally to celebrate for your entire life and never become dependent. It''s fine if you''re "straight edge" or whatever, but don''t spout errant bullshit.

Anyway, it''s your girlfriend.

Oluseyi... That was a very well thought out monologue, but what if one doesn''t believe in Freud''s theories? I do, but I''m just saying what if one doesn''t. And its not because of something that happened to me as a child, I was never abused and had a normal healthy childhood, its just because most women are bitches.
