There is no perfect script you can pull out to get your girlfriend melting in her shoes, since a lot of what drives her wild is going to be totally unique to her. You know her best, so take her personality into account when you’re choosing your words. You also don’t need to craft some giant speech. Often, the gestures that people find the most romantic, sexy, or meaningful can be incredibly tiny, and the same is true when it comes to unlocking the key to your girlfriend’s heart. With that said, if you’re looking for something to get you started so that you can sweep her off of her feet, we’ve got you covered.
