How to Love a Baby Boomer Diva Part II

Give Her Something to Smile About

Come up with creative ways to do something different for your baby boomer diva everyday. Let her know you’re thinking about her throughout the day with an email or a phone call (leave a message if she doesn’t answer). She will appreciate the fact that you took time out of your busy day to think of her.

Just because you aren’t together all the time doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do things to let her know how much you care for her. Remember, intimacy has to leave the bedroom sometimes in order to be totally effective. What does that mean? It means you can do other things to connect with your baby boomer diva emotionally:

1) Why not send her flowers as a token of the love you feel for her along with a “love note.”

2) Take a day off from work and be her “maid for a day” where you handle all of the household chores including her “personal needs.”

3) Take her out for a night on the town and treat it as a first date.

4) Send her flowers at work just because . (even if she’s a work-at-home-mom). It doesn’t have to be connected to a special day. Just let her know you love her and want her to know it.

5) Run her bath water complete with candles and then have a nice, warm towel waiting for her when she gets out of the tub. (A personal favorite of mine.)

Since I have no significant other in my life right now (or should I count my Yorkiepoo, Pixel?) I shall do these things for myself occasionally.

I can buy myself a lovely bouquet for my table.
I will take a day off from work and hire a maid to make my bed and wash my dishes.
I will take myself out on the town or maybe just a picnic in the red rocks of Sedona.
I will remember to light a nice aroma therapy candle for my next bath!

Loved this Bev! I think the baby boomer men are more in touch with 'what women want' these days.. alot of that probably has to do with their baby boomer partners being more open! We are not afraid to speak our minds, something other women still shy away from!

Love to love the love of your life!

Wouldn't it be lovely? I am going to give this to my husband as a "subtle" hint!

Passing the Torch from Baby Boomers to Millennials to Gen Z

Whether baby boomers can accept it or not, a changing of the guard has taken place with  millennials and the up and coming Gen Z generations...
