Red face Romantic acts

My dh is great, but not the most romantic,
so I was thinking, what is/was the most romantic thing you/someone else
has done for you.

when I was in the 5th grade, I wanted purple snow, my boyfriend came over
with a spray bottle of purple dye and sprayed my front lawn purple.

I'd gone back to college in my 30s for photography. My husband worked on building me a darkroom in our basement while I was gone to classes. All our family and friends knew about it and no one said a word! The sink counter and enlarger were in place for Christmas. He took me downtown to a large camera shop over break and we chose all the accessories I needed/wanted. He was very supportive of me going back to school and spoiled me rotten with anything I wanted.

Laugh if you want to but to me when my DH rolls over and lets me use his hinny as a "heating pad" for when I have an upset stomach or sore back, that is about as touching as I can think of. He puts off a lot of body heat and is a super guy for letting me snuggle up no matter what the temp is. He also always says "I'd take the pain from you if I could".... awwwwww

My DH brings me my pills in the morning and evening (with water), he cooks dinner for me most every night (I work later hours), does the laundry (including folding and putting it away), cleans house (not needed often as its just the 2 of us now), empties the d/w and fills it, and picks up things at the store we're low on, does the yards and pays the bills, and keeps track of our paperwork -- plus a million other things on a daily basis. That to me is romantic, as we've been married for over 39 years now...I'll go for practical romance any day!

When I married my now husband, I moved into his house. Our first night together, he called me to the bedroom and handed me a package with a set of new baby blue satin sheets in it and said let's put these on our bed. We did and when we were done, he said, this has been my bed, now it's OUR bed!! He was a bachelor for 15 years before he married me. That was 18 years ago and we still put those sheets on OUR bed on special occasions!! I was with my first husband for 30 years, ever since I was 14 years old, had four children with him and can't think of one thing he ever said or did that was romantic.

My DH surprised me with a Hot Air Balloon ride....something I had always wanted to do. this was very special for me, because I knew it cost a lot and he doesn't spend money foolishly. LOL
