the little book of things i love.

valentine's day.

historically in the life of janis roseanne, not a big deal. at all. allow me to translate this: i've never actually been in a relationship on valentine's day. ever. all my past romantic endeavors have been rather tragic & short lived. anyways, so the fact that THIS valentine's day i had a boyfriend is a little bit of a big deal.

mike & i spent the whole day together and ended the day with the most beautiful dinner at oui bistro. and then he gave me the little book of things i love and i almost started bawling right in the middle of the restaurant. it is the without a doubt the most beautiful, thoughtful thing i have ever received...i am such such a lucky lady...











is he nkot tis he not the very best? i sure do like him a lot...

  32. It’s no secret that a man’s ego has a powerful pull on him.

    In fact this hardwired need to impress and to WIN is so deeply embedded into the male mind...

    That nearly everything a man truly desires is based around this biological “drive” to prove, succeed and to win.

    It’s why so many men become workaholics, gym junkies or become obsessed with their hobbies.

    But what most women don’t know...

    ...is how deeply this “drive” is connected to his love, desire, and attraction for the woman in his life.

    And I’m about to show you how you can “tap into” a man’s ege to refocus that same drive and gut level obsession...

    ...on pleasing you, romancing you, and proving his love for you like you’re his sole purpose in life.

    Here’s how: ==> The “Go Ahead” Signal That Makes Him Obsessed With Winning Your Love

    Mr Gix

    P.S. When you tap into a man’s ego this way, you can cause him to literally become obsessed with proving his love for you. So please don’t use this on a man unless you are ready for something serious.

    Thanks again.
