Romance should be mandatory in every relationship. Most couples shy away from it because they've been tricked into believing one needs to have a large amount of money in order to be romantic.

I'm going to teach you five ways you can implement romance into your relationship without having to spending too much money:

1) Quality Time

Spending quality time with your significant other can be quite romantic. There are many ways you can spend this time with you partner. I would recommend watching movies (at home), going for a walk, cooking together, shopping together and much more. During quality time, you have your partner's undivided attention. That's what makes it so romantic.

2) Romantic Dinner at Home

You don't always have to go to a fancy restaurant to have a romantic dinner. You can have it at the comfort of your own home and make it special in your own way. What's better than being at home with your lover, eating delicious food and listening to slow/sexy music? And of course after dinner, we all know what's going to happen in the bedroom.

3) Fun Activities

There are so many fun activities for couples out there. Plan something! If you are the boring type of couple, why not do something out of your element? Do something out of the norm.

4) Romantic Gateway

Not everyone can afford to go to Mexico, Monaco, Barcelona or the Bahamas for a romantic vacation. That stuff is great, but it's also overrated. Why not book a weekend at a 4 or 5 star hotel in your city? Not only is it cheaper, it also gives you the chance to explore and create memories in your own city. Or, you can visit another city within your country. It's amazing the things we discover when we stop taking what we have for granted. There's a lot to discover in your city/country. This is your chance.

5) Sex

Yes, that's right! I'm talking about the type of sex where you take your time to make sure your partner is fully satisfied.
Small tip for the Ladies: when he comes home from work, meet him at the door naked and slowly bring him to the room and rock his world. Don't just do the same routine sex like everyday. Once in a while, light it up in the bedroom and I guarantee you, he'll be hooked to your hip forever.

Thumb up!!!!!!!
These sure can make a relationship to be romantic.

Danhumprey: Thumb up!!!!!!!
These sure can make a relationship to be romantic. But most Naija girls are just money-conscious. All they want in a relationship is money!

But Naija men are partially responsible for that. Most Naija men use materialistic things to attract women?

Regardless of how much money you may have, why not woo her with your intellect? Kindness? Politeness?

Why must it always be I can do this for you or buy this for you?

That should come later.

This doesn't apply to nigerian girls abeg

pasqal09: This doesn't apply to nigerian girls abeg

This isn't address to women only! Men as well. Romance is both for women & men. And both partners must contribute.

After doin all these and d relationship still heads to the cliff, wahs d use

chymystique: After doin all these and d relationship still heads to the cliff, wahs d use

Well, in life we work hard just to die at any moment, what's the use?

I guess we should all just give up on life.

Isn't life worth living?

Same way with relationships. The goal is to take your time & find someone who will be worth all the effort.

This life comes with no manuals, promises or guarantees.

The better cook in the relationship should be the one cooking for such an occasion.

Number 5 should be number 1

Nice write up, not convinced with number 5.

Gbam!!!

Sorry, I already have a full time job...this is another job...can't handle the two. To HELL with Romance. Nigerian women are just bunch of lazy opportunists.

Never take advice from a woman on how to treat/woo/romance a woman. They hardly ever know what the hell they're talking about. Trust me on that one.

Ok

Does this applies to Nigerians? If yes, I'm not ready to be in a relationship then. Sex straight work? E nor go eat and rest first?

yeah, I buy this.....Also, their tips are always overly one sided

Taking out time to listen to each other's worries,could be very romantic as well,big ups to a very useful write up sir.
