Get the Girl of Your Dreams: 6 Steps

1. Bring flowers
I don't care if its a silk rose from a gas station that smells like motor oil, the gesture is dying and it will make her feel special. Simply because flowers are not given that often anymore, it will, at the least, seem like you don't just give them to anyone. Once your relationship is established, this can be upped to actually sending flowers to her workplace. This is the best place EVER to receive flowers, because it makes every other girl there green with envy. Don't always pick red roses. Going with a different color, or even a different flower, will make you stand out.

2. Tell Her She's Beautiful/Pretty/Gorgeous/Sexy
Don't overdo it, now. Don't push her into that void called Maybe-I'm-Too-Good-For-Him, but make it just so that she hears it at unexpected times. If she really is beautiful, she probably doesn't think so, or hear it enough. And if she is actually hideous, she needs to hear that she's beautiful, at least, to you.

3. Do the Unexpected
You don't have to "figure her out" to get it right. All women love tiny surprises. I'm not talking about embarassing surprises, I'm talking about romantic surprises. In fact, the whole idea behind "romantic surprises" doesn't really have anything to do with "romance" at all. Its all about preparation, and proving that you think about her when she's not around. Get dinner reservations without being asked. Buy the cd she said she wanted when you went shopping last week. Prepare dinner before she gets there and light a candle in the center of the table. Don't go over the top. One candle will do the trick.

4. Listen... and care about it.
If she's really the girl of your dreams, you should be able to stand her bitching about how obnoxious her coworkers are. You should express concern about the things she is concerned about. You should seriously show that you care and pay extreme detail to her emotions. The art of listening, also, is a dying art. Remember that the average guy will be self-absorbed. You, however, are not average. So don't be an average boyfriend.

5. Be Passionate
Touch her! When you aren't telling her she's beautiful, you can show her. Some mature couples have said that they maintain the spark in their relationship because they can't keep their hands off each other. This does not mean that they grope in public. Yet a simple hand on the small of her back as you are led to your table is important. Don't wait for her to reach for your hand. Grab hers. Slip your fingers through her fingers. Reach across dinner tables. Put your hand on her knee when she's next to you. When kissing her, use your hands and touch the sides of her face. Brush the hair out of her eyes. Smooth it behind her ear. You don't even have to be kissing to do that one. Be soft with her. These displays prove that you are not solely concerned with the inside of your pants. They say you are gentle, and you absolutely adore her.

6. Be Real
You don't have to be smooth to pull this off, kids. In fact, its when you are NOT smooth that proves to her you are sincere. It says that you are trying because of her, not because you do this all the time. Girls want to think that, even if its not true. They want to feel like loving them means you want to do things you wouldn't normally do. Thus, some discomfort, along with sincerity, is a GOOD thing. Its cute. Its sweet. Its important. And it will let her know you're serious.

.................
In Closing:
Do NOT stop doing these things when you are officially together, or when you think you've "got" her, or when you're married. The minute you stop is the minute she stops. This is not a game. This could be the rest of your life. So, if you love her, you won't mind going above and beyond, because you'll be rewarded with that light in her smile every time. Don't ever forget that.
