Ladies, what is the most romantic thing you've done for a man?

...Or gentlemen, what is the most romantic thing a woman has done for you?

I was reading a thread on CCF about the most romantic things people had experienced, and I noticed that most of the replies were men posting romantic things they had done for women or women posting romantic things men had done for them. Nobody really mentioned romantic things women had done for men....

I suppose this could be called romantic. I once sent my ex-boyfriend a different greeting card for 4 of the 5 days he was gone on a trip. So when he got home, he had 4 cards waiting to be read. He expressed his gratititude several times and told me it was one of the sweetest and most thoughtful things he'd ever had done for him.

For another ex-boyfriend I created a homemade Valentine's Day card. It turned out quite well, and at the time he really liked it. I also bought him the soundtrack to the movie (Phantom of the Opera) that was his favorite at the time, knowing he wanted it but hadn't bought it yet.

I've done some romantic things but I don't really feel that most of those things were appreciated (mainly because the person I did them for was abusive).

But I don't know I haven't ever done anything super great, I just did little things like make him breakfast in bed and stuff.

Hmm I've done a lot of romantic things. I don't think they were as well accepted as I wanted them to be because he's kind of a whatever guy and it's hard to know what he thinks.

When I first got to know him, I made brownies for his birthday and got him a cute card and put 20 in it to help pay the cell phone bill or to buy a special email account he wanted.

Whenever he was down, I'd make him something, usually something chocolate and that always helped.

I totally cleaned his room top to bottom one day and made it more of a home to him.

I've given him back rubs and foot rubs when he's overtired, I know he really appreciates those.

I have countless times brought breakfast down to him when he comes in and starts work early, or I've just shown up to take him out to breakfast. Sometimes I have come at night or during the day and brought him lunch or offered to go get some.

If he goes in early (and I don't plan on bringing breakfast) I'll make a point to get up and be with him to keep him company.

I send him emails and ecards once in a while just telling him how much I love him. I also write it in my journal every time I write. I make it a point to brag on him a bit here and there on forums too.

Sometimes I'll go home ahead of him and prepare dinner for him or clean the room or do something special to the room to surprise him.

I make a point to know just about everything he's doing not so that I can track him down if I want to but so that I know when he'll be home, when he'll be at the store, when he'll be where...because I love surprising him like that.

His favorite? Probably back and foot rubs. And food. And if I've worked REALLY hard on cleaning and reorganizing the room he'll be all over me.

I love him so much that it doesn't even seem like I've done any of that...it's just a part of how I live my life. He matters more to me than my own life and I want to love him and cherish him and nourish him and respect him and just be a soulmate to him. I don't overwork myself, but it is just part of my life and how I choose to live it.

It was hard to even come up with these things but since you asked, I came up with them. I feel a little weird about posting them because it makes me look really good lolol. In all seriousness, I think that the little things are things he hardly notices as romantic, but he does enjoy them, a lot. I do it for his pleasure, and I get pleasure out of seeing him getting pleasure, so it's a win-win situation.

I guess this isn't really romantic....
I've made a book about our relationship/first time we met/when we were friends. I gave the book to my bf on our 1st year anniversary!
He was so happy that he even cried.

Erm this is very sloppy but here goes,
I had two trees planted for him in a wood then wrote him a few words about how they will grow with us and our relationship,

He was pretty made up about it actually,

I also made him a cd with songs that remind me of what we share together,


Nothing compares to you (Sinead O connor)
Samson (Regina spektor)
Iris (googoodolls)
The Blowers daughter (Damien Rice)
Songbird (AllAngels)
Tender (Blur)
You are my sunshine (Carly Simon)
Imagine (John Lennon)
Just like heaven (Katie Melua)
99 Red Balloons (reel big fish)
Yellow (coldplay)
You (evanesence)

I cooked him a 4 course meal on Valentine's Day (he had cooked me a 3 course the year before - had to out-do him )

I bought him a bag full of presents for Christmas, when he was only expecting one thing...

I burned a CD with "Everything" by Alanis Morissette on it, as the lyrics described me/our relationship perfectly...

I took him to London for his birthday weekend as a surprise

Hmmmm...apparently I'm a bit soppier than I thought!!

I often used to have three courses waiting for our Sunday lunch/dinner after he finished work.

Today I bought him a kinder suprise for dessert, cause I always see him eyeing them off. Usually I'm like 'No baby, we're gonna eat properly.'

For his birthday, I painted him a portrait of us.

I leave him little notes and messages when he goes something important. Like passing exams for certificates, before he got into design school, before his first day working etc.

I take him (and he takes me) to nerdular art/design/nature around the city, just to look, sit, enjoy, watch. One of our first dates was to the Chinese Gardens.

I post comments on his blog and generally try and take an interest.

well, since my boyfriend is thousands of miles from me, I post entries in his guestbook almost everyother day or so, expressing our relationship/how i feel towards him/how he makes me feel/how grateful i am to have the Lord place him in my life, usually done the night before, so when he gets in to work he will read my thoughts first thing in the morning.

Turns out he's ignited the poet in me .
If your reading this honey, i love you and i look forward to wearing your ring -your tiny wing

Forgive me if I am wrong but are you and AWorkInProgress together? If so, congratulations! I just figured that out
