Is your boyfriend getting restless while the two of you are apart? Not restless sexually…
Well maybe that too!
But I’m speaking more of the romantic yearning a guy has when he’s separated from the woman he loves. He doesn’t just want to text back and forth. He wants to hear from you (or read from you) that you feel the same way about him. He wants to feel your passion. He wants to know that this relationship is a united effort, a two-sided romance.
So yes, if there’s ever any doubt, give him the love he wants. There’s no reason to play games…especially if a guy is already into you.
The hard part might actually be coming up with long romantic paragraphs that he likes. You don’t want to steal quotes. But at the same time, you don’t want to over-think it or under-think it.
How about a compromise? I’ll share some longer paragraphs and you can steal or adapt them as much as you would like. But after we list them, let’s consider the technique as well as the quote.
- There is something magical between us, isn’t there? Whenever we talk about a subject we can just go on and on for hours. I love talking to you. The way our minds meld together. And I miss you when you’re not here or when you go days without checking in. For me, our text conversations are like morning coffee. They give me some pep for the long day ahead.
- I like the way you smile. I like the way you look at me. I like the way your eyes look deeply into mine, so much that I can almost sense what you’re thinking. I like just watching you sometimes, wondering what’s going on in that brilliant mind of yours. You are so handsome and debonair. Don’t you forget it!
- You are so knowledgeable about history. I like the factoids you’re always giving me. It’s amazing to hear you text or talk about something so very few people know, but that you understand so deeply. I am envious of your intelligence…but I don’t want to be you. I just want to listen to you on a bonfire night with hot cocoa in my cup.
- I like how close we’re becoming. I want to be able to tell you anything I’m thinking. I also love to confide in you the way I really feel about everything…including how deeply I desire you. How much I crave your touch. The intimacy between us is so intense and yet so comforting. You make me so happy and make feel complete.
- No one makes me feel the way you do. You make me laugh. You make me feel raw animal attraction to you. You’re so good at what you do. You’re confident but not cocky. I can’t help but root for you. You’re so dedicated in everything you do. I am your biggest fan and will always believe in you.
- I like the way you look when you send me those before-bed selfie shots. Just you and a camera and the look on your face is so dreamy. You’re naturally handsome. And when you look at me, I can always tell you’re listening to what I say. You remember things I tell you, even stuff no one else could possibly remember. I love that about you…you are a great listener and a wonderful source of peace in my life.
- Some day I’m going to look back on these conversations, these quirks and funny ones that we have long into the night, and think, “You know they really were the some of the best times of my life.” Whether we’re together in bed, or even just on the phone long distance, I always feel your presence near me. When we talk together we connect so deeply. I’m so happy that I get to do that and that I’ve met someone who understands.
- When you come home from the airport, first, I’m going to kiss you hello. And it’s going to be the best kiss you’ve ever had, I’ll make sure of it. It will be a slow, wet and passionate kiss. I’m going to make sure you hug me and put your arms around me so that you feel relaxed and relieved to be home. We’ll just be together in that wonderful moment. Nowhere to be. Nothing to do. Nothing else to worry about just you and me, baby. I’m going to be so happy to see you and touch you again.
Did you notice why these longer paragraphs worked? Here are some of the basics of what to remember when you put together your own long paragraphs.
Texts should be:
- Emotional in nature. There’s no reason to hold back how you feel when you talk to a man, so as long as you’re confident and positive. Be expressive but don’t stoop to being negative or manipulative. Be naturally expressive and he’ll love you for it.
- Descriptive about details. You didn’t just give a romantic cliché…you followed it up with specific reasons why you feel the way you do.
- Focused on the “NOW” rather than the future. The future is always uncertain. No wonder guys get nervous about commitment. Enjoy the moment and let him know that you enjoy the efforts he puts forth, and the wonderful relationship you currently have.
- Concentrating on one thought at a time and let each sentence lead naturally into the next one. Poor writing is just like an awkward romance. When you over-think and try to convey too many scattered thoughts, one right after the other, you lack cohesion of thought. In other words, your sentences don’t connect to each other. Don’t try to cram too many thoughts into a couple of sentences. Follow one thought at a time and be sincere. He’ll be touched.
That’s how you write longer romantic paragraphs…try it on your beloved and see what works best.
