The Tip : How to get your man in the mood :

1) Handfeed your lover with tidbits such as strawberries or chocolates. 2) Turn a cuddle into a sensual neck and back massage. 3) Create a love-tape of your lover's favorite love songs and present it to him. 4) Write a loving a sexy note for your lover and leave it somewhere you know he'll find it during the day. 5) Send a love letter. You don't have to fill pages-just one or two lines saying how you feel about him speaks volumes. 6) Send a text or e-mail that simply says that you're thinking of him at that moment. 7) The next time you have dinner together, light a few candles, put on some soft music and show your lover you want to make him feel good. 8) Offer to go out on an errand for your lover and come back with a surprise gift-it only needs to be a small present yet the gesture seems big on caring.
