Dinner for Two

Nothing says romance, like a dinner for two, but who ever said that it only could be between lovers?

We all have an imagine in our heads of how the perfect dinner for two would look. Lit candles, the elegant tablecloth, fabric napkins, champagne in beautiful crystal glasses, soft music playing int he background, a stunning view from the table, and a soft scent of roses in the air.

Doesn’t that sound wonderful? But who is sitting in thew other seat?

Personally, I find it wonderful to have a dinner for two with a dear friend, also because this is my way to tell them thank you for everything you have done for me.

A dinner for two can be seen as very different things depending on who you are with. And of course how they look at you.

I would be lying if I say that never have some of my best friends declared their love for me, so I would never bring them out on a “dinner for two”, because they will misunderstand.

Them I would enjoy events with instead, such as haunted houses, movie marathons, watching an exhibition at the museum, watch a play, or even just cook together.

But some of your oldest and closest friends will understand that a dinner for two is meant as a symbol of appreciation of the friendship and shouldn’t be looked at any different than that.

Dinner for two can also be with a family member that you are close with, like a parent, grandparent, sibling, cousin, uncle, or aunt.

In that situation it would mean thank you for being someone I can go to for support in the family.

And of course there is the possibility of this dinner for two being with someone of a love interest, which means that it goes from dinner for two to romantic dinner for two.

Now, women have this funny idea that men should always make the first move for stuff like this, because we have been told that the men always make the first move, but that is completely wrong.

For centuries have women been the ones to make the first move, we just did it in the most sneaky way possible.

Let me come with an example; the handkerchief. One of the oldest tricks in the book, but what we never really understood was that a woman would spot a man, who she found to be very interesting and would on purpose drop her handkerchief when he was looking, but make it seem like she didn’t know she dropped it.

The man would now see this as a golden opportunity to talk to this young woman who caught his eye, unknowing of that she actually made the first move, so women all over, do not be afraid to hint to your man what you want.

He will think that it was his idea and you will get what you hoped for.

So go out and enjoy a lovely meal with your significant other or someone who means a great deal to you and remember to stay safe.

Kisses.
