Do you want to spice up your love relationship? Are you bored with the direction of your
romantic relationship? Then, try
courtship. That’s right: courtship. I know that sounds old fashion; but that’s
what is missing: old, fashion romantic courtship. Dictionary.Reference.com defines Courtship as “. . . the wooing of one person by another.
“ Wooing your partner is hot and sexy. The remedy for a less than exciting relationship is courtship.
There was a time when a man courting a woman was an absolute
requirement. The man took time to find
out what the target of his affection liked from her favorite flower, her
favorite food, or her favorite book.
These are just examples of a man, or woman, taking time to build a long,
lasting love relationship.Whether your relationship is in the honeymoon stage or you have been married for decades, courtship can return the spark your relationship needs.
Recently, I took my own advice and began creating Courtship
Jars. These jars contain 52-weeks of
courtship ideas. So, I am going to share
my ‘recipe’ for improving your relationship if you want to turn up the sexy
heat. You will need the following
materials:
52-Courtship Idea
Slips: You can create these slips by cutting 52 rectangle slips of paper. Each partner will need 52 slips write ‘PRIVATE’ courtship ideas. The key word is ‘PRIVATE’ because each partner knows what turns him or her on and
what activities would make him or her happy in a relationship. Be as creative as you want. Your partner will execute these courtship
acts. Therefore, have fun and don’t be shy.
However, remember to not make it too difficult for your partner to
fulfill your courtship idea. Here is an
example of a courtship idea:

1 Sheet Red and 1
Sheet White Tissue Paper: You can find this paper in an arts and crafts
store or in the greeting cards section.
Grab a pack of each color, or if there is a package with multi-colors,
that would work better because you can use the rest for future craft projects.
5 Red and 5 Clear
Plastic Gems: You can purchase these at a local arts and crafts store
such as Michaels, Hobby Lobby and even Wal-Mart. This container contains over one-hundred
pieces, so you have plenty gems for future craft projects.
Arts and Craft
Glue: This is the type of glue I use; but it is the same as the glue
your kids use for school arts and craft projects. If you don’t already have Elmer’s Glue at
home, you can find this glue at your local arts and craft stores. If you have a glue gun, that will work just as well.
Old newspaper:
Lay the paper under your arts and crafts to prevent spillage.
Getting Your Courtship
Started: Once you have created your Courtship Jars and each partner has
written a courtship idea on each slip of paper, store the jars in a private area
for easy access to only you and your partner.
Decide which day of the week you and your partner will retrieve a slip
from the other partner’s jar. ONCE YOU
RETRIEVE A COURTSHIP SLIP FROM YOUR PARTNER’S JAR, YOU CANNOT PUT IT BACK! That’s cheating. This is about courting your
partner and fulfilling their needs.
The most important aspect of Courtship Jars is getting to
know your partner intimately. For me, it’s
about spending time and service.
Participating in activities together is very sexy to me. This
is another way to communicate. It’s a
sexy way of learning what turn your partner on as well. Most importantly, many of the ideas do not
have to cost money.
