I know for us fellas (and heck, ladies too)it can be tough sometimes to come up with creative ways of showing the wife/girlfriend how we feel about them. Not long ago I came up with a real good one and I thought I'd share with the group.

A couple months after we got married I had to leave town for a few days for a convention. My wife kept going on about how much she was going to miss me and how empty the house would feel with me gone.

I wanted to come up with a way for her to feel like I was still around even though I was hundreds of miles away. After mulling it over for a while it hit me. I grabbed a stack of paper off the printer and a black felt marker. I started writing short love notes. Nothing deep, just little quickies. "Guess who misses you?". "WOW! You are one HOT mama!". "SMOOCH! Ha! I just kissed you!". You get the idea.

I made about 20 of these and started hiding them around the house. In her dresser drawer, under her pillow, behind her bath towels. Anywhere where I know she wouldn't be able to see them, but would find them eventually.

That night I called home and my wife was thrilled. She had found one, then another and once she realized what I had done she scoured the house trying to find them all. Regardless, she was still finding new notes right up until I came home. She said it was one of the sweetest things I had ever done for her.

So there you go. Give it a shot on your significant other the next time you go away. Works wonders! :angel:

nice tip!! Gotta use it sometime! Thx much...I'm not married..but hey...I'll use it sometime. Right now, I live in a guys dorm, and for some reason, I don't think that works on other guys. Should i go in the girls dorm and do that for my girlfriend? Hmmm...

You know, I did this for my hubby when he would have to go out of town and even when he was in town, just going to work. I'd go out and leave a note on the steering wheel, stick one in the pocket of his pants while he was in the shower, leave one on top of the milk in the fridge, etc.

He always said he liked it but it really wasn't his thing. So the effort was kind of wasted on him. lol But he never thinks of stuff like that for me, even though I would love it! He has no romantic bone in his body. :P

Congrats to you for being a great husband, NU! :)

My dad always does that for my mom when he leaves for work out of town.
