Simple Tips for Keeping Her Happy!
If you’re in a relationship, these tips are for you. If you’re not in a relationship, these tips will make you look like a maniacal stalker and likely will end with you in jail. So please, use this list at your own discretion.
1. Kill the environment for her, in a cute way
Post-it notes are your friend. They may seem drab and unassuming, but a Post-it note is fantastic at reminding a woman that you love her. (and trust me, women need constant reassurance of this…don’t even try to claim otherwise girls) The Post-it note is a great tool. It’s size limits the amount you can write but in many ways it’s like the haiku of cards. The form forces creativity. Leaving little “I heart you” notes on the bathroom mirror, or the fridge, or if you don’t yet cohabitate, her car, her locker, etc. Anywhere there’s a surface that she sees on a regular basis can be a usable spot for a little note.
2. Remember the places of significance and take a picture of them.
Do you remember where you first kissed? Where you first said “I love you” ? How about where you asked her out? Where you met? These things should be simple and easy to remember. If they happen to be still accessible, take a picture of them, print it out and make it into a card and in the card let her know how the even made you feel. (note: use a thesaurus if “good” or “nice” are the only adjectives that burst into your head)
3. Gifts on insignificant days
Giving gifts only on Christmas, birthdays, and anniversaries is not cost effective when you compare it to little gifts on days that don’t matter. If you give a gift when you have “no reason at all” you’ll get way more bang for your buck as she will be more thrilled with the thought than of the gift itself. For example; giving a dozen roses on Valentine ’s Day may set you back between $12-$34 depending where you live. Whereas buying a single orchid and giving it in a slender vase would set you back $5-$12 but will give her bragging rights for at least a month.
4. Not so spontaneous…spontaneous dates

Women love to think of themselves in some perfect romantic comedy where one fantastic date sums up the entire relationship. It’s spontaneous, cute, funny, and heart warming….and completely unrealistic. Spontaneous dates are usually a nightmare and she won’t find waiting to be seated at a very popular restaurant to be “cute or funny” at all. So what do you do? You make the date appear to be spontaneous without it being spontaneous at all. The easiest way to do this is reserve multiple things at different times. If you give her the appearance that she is choosing, it will seem spontaneous. For example, if you reserve a table at a 3 different restaurants that you’re sure she’ll like, let her choose which one you go to. When you get there, you’ll already have the reservation so you’re guaranteed a table, plus she’ll think that you already knew what she was going to pick….bonus points for you!
5. Pay Attention to the small things

Most women think that all men care about is T&A. If you’re going to give her a compliment, try to avoid complimenting the T&A. Instead you’ll appear much more sophisticated and gentile if you compliment subtle things. For example; how her eyes look in “this” light compared to “that” light, the way she smiles, the way she has her hair, the softness of her hands (or just skin in general). Women are often quite critical of their appearance and these little compliments will affect her much more than just saying “You’ve got a nice ass”. (though…the occasional reminder isn’t too bad lol)
There are many more things that you can say and do to keep her happy, but hopefully this list will get you started. Good luck and happy wooing!

#4 is a little sneaky, but quite brilliant too
awww
That's pretty sweet I'll have to use some of those next time I have a girlfriend. :3
hehe ^^ cute :3
My husband does these things and more! He's the best!! :) He notices, remembers, and acts on little things I say that I like or don't like, and he just loves to make me happy. I know this will sound kinda silly, but one of the things early in our relationship that really impressed me was when I went to his house and found that he had made sure he had a couple of clean glasses, because he remembered me saying I didn't like to drink out of plastic cups! It's the little things. :)
hahaha this is how i read your post:
(1) stop leaving trash around the apartment!
(2) YOU FORGOT WHERE WE MET?
(3) what the hell is this for?
(4) you should have TOLD me we were going here. i have a discount card!
(5) stop looking at me like that...
LOL just poking fun. those things are sweet but i think too much of that could suffocate her.
hahahah This is cute. I actually leave post-its for my boyfriend in his car.
My boyfriend and I leave each other post it notes all the time. He leaves them everywhere for me, in my purse, on my laptop, folded in my DS, even in the fridge. He's the best. =]
I like the post it idea, and the photos, but I'd recommend just snapping them with your phone and sending her a copy with a short text "remember what happened here? xdx" that sort of thing
really, it IS little things that work for me, cause they show me I am wound into the fabric of his life, that I come to mind, but not like he feels he constantly HAS to work to keep me around. I get nervous when a guy is putting way too much into it...I wonder what his agenda is.
any little reminder that he saw something and it made him think of me...or "us" (swoon) just makes me all tingly
LOL. hold on let me show this to my bf :] LOL.<3
Awww. This is so perfect. This is what I want my boyfriends to do!!
So adorable! :) LMAO @lot223@xanga
cuteeeeeeeeeeee.
I agree with this..
@lot223@xanga - LOL
Haha, these are really sweet.
@annamariuhh@xanga - @pensively@xanga - you know it's true. haha, or maybe some of the girls i've dated were a little crazy.. but who isn't a little crazy these days ;)
@lot223@xanga - Funny you should say that. When I have something delivered to my wife's work (90% female employees) the women do the whole "Awwwwwwww" thing...where as the couple of guys that see this....will immediately ask "So what did he do wrong?" lol
Gifts on random days for men imply apologies....for women...it's thoughtfulness.
These things are so cute!
i love this!
Another one to add
Goodmorning and goodnight calls or texts~
aww, this is so cute! that's definitely more than sufficient to keep a girl happy (:
Those things are all cute, but not necessary for me.
sweet =)
Haha, I really am not too big on any of these. Oh well.
Ah.guess the ladies just want to know you are thinking of them all the time, and that u care about them.
