I studied engineering at university – ’nuff said. I am not Italian. (My surname is Toschi, but that’s actually my wifes’s maiden name. My Father, a senior police officer in British colonial Africa, wasn’t exactly a flamboyant ladies’ man, bless his heart, and so I didn’t have much of a role model. I’m South African and my natural bent is to make war, not love.
So why I am I writing about romantic love? Because I discovered that incurable romantics are not born, they are made.
So what’s the secret? It’s making a choice to be a romantic and simply studying what that means and getting on with it.
It’s also important to be completely sure of your male identity. Why? Because if you’re not, wearing colourful clothing, rejoicing in the fragrances, sights, music and tastes of the fulness of life might cause you to worry about being effeminate. On the contrary, your male-ness comes to full bloom, as it does in the animal kingdom, where the males of the species are the most exotic, colourful and exuberant of the genders.
Guys, it’s worth every bit of time that you invest in becoming a romantic, loving husband. It’s fantastic to have a wife who looks forward to being with you, who delights in your company, and tells all her friends how fortunate she is to have you!
I discovered a really helpful web resource that helped me tremendously. Here is one resource that I have found particularly helpful.
