Keeping the Romance Alive

By Debbie Anderson

Make sure you say good morning and good night, even if they are not online.
Make conversations more about them...for example start conversations with "How was your day."
As a kiss or hug is not possible use an emoticon or avatar to express your love online.
Flirt with your partner!
Never log off in anger and without finishing a conversation. In fact, never go to bed angry!
Make your partner feel emotionally secure by letting them know your schedule or whereabouts so they don't have to chase you down.
Send them loving little presents by mail.
Scent snail mail with your perfume or after-shave. Women should seal envelopes with a kiss.
Dump money in their paypal account for a trip to a spa, or buy them a certificate to one to show that you care for their body.
Men should send chocolates, flowers and lingerie.
Send them e-cards reminding them how much you miss them.
Write them love letters, both the old fashioned kind sent by snail mail and the email kind. Make sure to quote from poetry, song lyrics or add jokes that they would appreciate it.
Send him or her a tape of your voice so they can hear you talking or even better yet, a videotape.
Send your love a surprise gourmet meal or other perk by delivery in their area.
Silkscreen a pillow case with a picture of your face.
Meet each other half way by booking a romantic getaway somewhere between your two destinations.
Never ever forget a birthday or anniversary!
