Work-life seldom leaves time for men or working couples to do something special for each other. Having said that, the lockdown has especially come hard on couples who are trying to balance their work and personal life while at home. Use this time to make up for all those missed anniversaries and cancelled dates. Catch her off-guard with some TLC and romance to turn these dreary days into special moments. Women love surprises and what they love even more are efforts rather than expensive gifts. Here are quick tips on how you can turn this lockdown special for her:
Breakfast in Bed
Cliché? Yes, but always works! Happiness is the best thing you can give her, first thing in the morning and what’s better than breakfast in bed? Snooze her alarm, let her sleep in and serve her a healthy breakfast. This surprise will make her day and her smile will be yours. Also, do not forget to capture the moment!
Cook Her Favourite Recipe
Whether you are a great cook or not, now would be the time to learn and cook her favourite recipe. Turn the whole scene into a Masterchef episode to add an entertaining twist to the day. Prepare her favourite dish and watch her devour it until her heart’s content. Believe us, nothing beats cooking for the women you love.
Divide All the Chores
This lockdown be her soldier on duty – divide all the chores making it special! Women tend to avoid sharing kitchen chores with their significant partners, however, that does not mean men should let them do it all. Catch her off-guard by taking kitchen duties like washing utensils, cleaning, laundry or even cooking. Not only will extra hands make work light and faster, but you will also end up spending more time together. An absolute win-win.
Walk Down The Memory Lane
Visiting old memories is one of the best ways to rekindle the romance. Although we blame technology for ruining classic love, sending her old pictures, old letters or messages from across the room will not only pique her curiosity but make great conversation starters too, to visit old memories that you’ll cherish together. Spending more time together or just listening to her anecdotes is the most romantic thing you can do.
Pamper Her
Surprise her with a quick head, back or foot massage. Pamper her even if she says, she does not need it, because she always needs it! Prepare a hot or cold bag for her shoulder to ease the stress. You can also surprise her with her favourite tea or juice when she least expects it. Catching her off-guard is the best way to make her feel special.
DIY For Her
More the effort, the more special she will feel. Hence, indulge in some DIY! Here is what you can do, make a video of your memories together and record how much she means to you or you could collect messages from your families too. Display it as an advertisement on a movie night and watch her take by surprise! To make her feel loved is also one of the ways to express your love to her.
