Friends, after a brief hiatus, Attractology is back full time to provide you with tools and philosophies to help you feel more confident and attractive everyday. Does that sound good?
Also, thank you for being a part of our community, we really appreciate all of you.
OK, here is a topic that I'm sure a few of you can appreciate. Especially the women! The topic of romance means something different to each person you ask. However, it's a key component to the dating protocol. We all need it to a certain degree, so let's dive right into it. I want you to think about what it means to you, and are you getting enough of it in your life? We have a few principles here at Attractology and one of them is to make sure you are getting what you need. We only have a short amount of time in this world, so making room for the things we need, and letting go of those that don't serve us is paramount.
We're in Seattle, so this post is going to have a local flavor to it, but hopefully you can get something out of it, even if you're somewhere else in the world.
One of the best cities in the world to create romance is Seattle. It's true. It's got long dark winters, perfect for cozying up with someone, and the summer's are mild so you don't have to walk around all sweaty looking like a hot mess. The waterfront is beautiful all the time, and there is no end to the amount of outdoor activities.
When you're in a fairly new relationship, everything you do can have a romantic feel to it, mostly because it's something new and fresh you're experiencing together. If you've been in a relationship for a while, it becomes a little more difficult to organically create that feeling. At that point, you've done a lot of things together, and as we become more comfortable the drive to explore and be adventurous begins to wane. Let's not let that happen to us. Let's keep things fresh and be spontaneous. The fact that you are doing it together will make whatever you're doing more romantic. Yes?
Here are a few suggestions to try out, whether you just started dating someone, or have been together in a serious relationship for five years. These are just ideas, please feel free to customize them and make them your own.
1.) Take the Theo Chocolate Factory Tour in Fremont. The tour is only an hour long and at 6 per person you can't beat the price. You'll learn a little about cacao (which is great for trivia nights at your local pub,) and taste a lot of delicious chocolate. Not to mention chocolate is considered an aphrodisiac and is said to have quite an effect on a woman's mood.
2.) Bundle up and take a tour of the Olympic Sculpture Park. Eat at the TASTE Caf'e while you're there and discuss your favorite works of art from the tour.
3.) We're in the thick of autumn, the leaves are turning, (football is on), the air is crisp and Halloween is fast approaching so something as simple as pumpkin carving can be romantic if you add a bottle of champagne and a few well-placed candles.
4.) With cold weather, comes more time indoors. So, cook a Fall-inspired meal together - decide on the recipe and shop for the ingredients together. Time in the kitchen can be a great relationship builder and will help to bring you closer. Once you're done, feel free to dig in! (clothing optional, of course)
5.) Take a stroll around Greenlake and bring a picnic if the weather isn't too chilly. Make sure you pack some hot chocolate and an extra blanket to cuddle up with.
6.) Sharing new experiences together release hormones that create a feeling of attraction and elation so try something neither of you have experienced before like rock climbing. Stone Gardens located in Ballard is a great place with decent rates.
7.) Be a kid again! Head down to the Seattle Waterfront Arcade located at Pier 57. You'll be surrounded by tourists, providing great people watching, and a new energy you both will easily absorb.
8.) Treat your date to a delicious meal without breaking the bank. It's Seattle Restaurant Week and the month of November is Dine Around Seattle.
Please feel free to share your ideas with us too, we would love to hear them!
