DAY 337: FLIRTATION AND FOREPLAY MONDAY
Stroke Her with a Flower

“This was what she missed as much as the sex: the flattery. In the early throes of love, you complimented each other. Then you got married and spent the rest of your years hurling insults and complaints. Marriage was disappointment verbalized.”

—From Prospect Park West by Amy Sohn.

This is the sort of thing she is reading in her book club. Novels have long chronicled women’s disenchantment with marriage and the loss of romance it represents.

Buy her flowers today for no reason. Take one from the bunch that you hand her. Stroke her face with the bloom and tell her as she exclaims over the flowers, “They are not as beautiful as you are.”
