Ferocious Flirting: Making Marriage Wonderful

Of course, spending time watching a movie together can be romantic. But it needs to be a good "couple watchable" movie. If its a pure "chick flick" then he will be bored.

Make the time that you and your sweetie meet after being apart all day a time to smile. First, perpare yourself.
