After the Honeymoon




What to do after the honeymoon ? (Or as one of my nieces say - the Horneymoon) How does an SL couple keep the romantic burning? Sometimes just spending time together isn't enough. Show your SLmate how much you adore them. Here are a couple of ideas that won't break the bank:

-Dance under the stars by candlelight
Toss a pair of slow dance balls out and surround the area with candles. To enjoy the soft glow of the candles, change your preference to Nearby Local Lights under the Graphics Detail tab. And don't forget to set your world to Midnight to view the SL night sky.

-Snuggle ... often
Find a place that you both feel is not only quiet but relaxing and curl your arms around each other. It doesn't have to be an exotic place - pick a beach or hop on your own couch. Make it a meaningful place.

-Enjoy a sunset
Go back to basics, realize you have a great friendship that grew into SLove. Talk, giggle ... be together.

The recipe for all this magic to really take place:
-Ignore all IMs and local chat
-Use the new Voice feature in SL
-Set the land music to something soft and soothing like jazz, if you can.
-Take pictures to share. Rename the pics before sending to phrases that are specific to your SLove or to the moment.
- Be yourself!
