In a lot of long relationships, the woman tends to complain that the romance is gone.  This is due to one or both of two reasons:  that the woman gets easier or the man becomes more efficient. 

In the beginning stages of a relationship, the woman is generally reluctant to sleep with a man she hasn’t gone on X amount of dates with.  The man, then, wines and dines her, buys her flowers, in order to break that barrier as soon as possible.  After X amount of dates, the woman won’t put be as hesitant to sleep with the man, and he won’t need to wine and dine her anymore. 

Also, in the beginning stages of sleeping with each other, there tends to be an immense amount of foreplay.  To be honest, it’s not for you, ladies.  It’s so that man can figure out her buttons, where she’s sensitive, and whatnot.  That’s why it’s taking so long.  So after he’s figured out what gets her wet, he just targets those areas.  She gets horny quicker, and the romance factor dissipates.  After a while, he just wants to get it in. 

Guys think they’re so clever.  Actually, I must hand it to them, they are.  I mean, how else are they going to bed girls as easily as some guys do?  But you know what?  I’ve my fair share of guy friends, and I’ve learned all the tricks of the trade.  I see through your ploys.  I’m not going to fall for them anymore!

Starting with the tickle wars.  Like, honestly, who knew?!?!  Tickle wars always end up with some sort of intimacy because you two get close in the process, touching each other and all that good stuff.  Then bam next thing you know, you’re naked and moaning.  What?  Weren’t you just being tortured a second ago?

Cold weather always is an excuse to cuddle up with someone.  Far too obvious, but now there’s something new to look out for.  Whilst walking in cold weather, said guy will ask you if you’re cold.  You reply yes, he grabs your most likely frigid bare hands to warm them up, and then you end up holding hands.  The thing is, I mean as cute as it is, you don’t wanna hold hands in cold weather.  You wanna put your hands in your pockets to protect them.  Thus why I have invested in a pair of gloves.  Can’t warm up a pair of gloves.

Study groups are extremely helpful in college (but mostly distracting).  Study PAIRS is asking for a make out session.  While studying, you always isolate yourself and whoever else you’re studying with from anyone else.  So it’s just you two.  “Studying.”  Ambiance is nice.  Quiet usually and facing each other.  You lean over to borrow his eraser, and he leans over and kisses you.  Easy as that. 

“OMG YOU’VE NEVER SEEN THAT MOVIE?  We’ll have to watch it together sometime.”  Movies in pairs always lead to cuddling, because it’s just awkward when two people are sitting on a couch in a dark room apart from each other.  Then we all know what happens after cuddling.

And last but not least, “Party tonight.  You should come.”  Enough said.
