Romance | Chivalry
Rogers Horoscope
In order to get more romance in your life, you should go back in time. Old fashioned ideas are not all keepers, but some of them are lost treasures you should try to regain. Instead of rushing into a new relationship because you're eager to get something going, opt for courtship. Take things slowlya and really get to know this person. If you are in a relationship currently, integrate courtship rituals into it. Go on a date with your sweetie and pretend you just met.

Now I just feel all kinds of happy happy.
