Listening To Elvis Presley Saved My Marriage

Our relationship was going through a very difficult time. She was accusing me, I was accusing her, we argued with each other constantly. We had been so very happy together and madly in love ever since we first met, but for some reason, in the last couple of years, probably due to work commitments and various other things, we just seemed to grow apart.



I wasn't having an affair with anyone and I am sure she wasn't either. Anyway, neither of us had the time any more, that was the problem, time! Then one day, on an odd day, I found time to relax while the house was quiet and empty. She was out shopping and I just decided to do absolutely nothing except chill out and listen to some music. I used to listen to music all the time. In fact, one of the most enjoyable things we used to do together was cuddle up in front of the fire and listen to music, maybe with a glass of wine or two, and kiss and cuddle like teenagers. But that seemed such a long time ago now.



Anyway, I had a look through the dusty music collection and found a few elvis albums. The first track I played was "Heartbreak Hotel" which didn't do much to lighten my mood. The next track was "Love Me Tender" and I could certainly relate to the lyrics of that song. Then I played "Suspicious Minds" and the words of this song really sank home. "We can't go on together, with suspicious minds"!



The more I listened to the songs of Elvis, the more they seemed to have a deep meaning to my present problems. The next song was "Are You Lonesome Tonight" and as I listened, my eyes started stinging, tears welling up inside, I was really getting emotional, which is something I never do, at least not while listening to music. As I sat there playing through my Elvis collections, every one of his songs seemed to be speaking directly to me. I could imagine some of the pain and upset Elvis must have gone through when he lost Priscilla. And as I continued to listen and compare my relationship problems with the problems of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, the next songs that played were "Got a Lot Of Livin' To Do" and "Teddy Bear". It was those last two songs that made me decide there and then to do something to save my relationship with the woman I loved. And yes, I still loved her and I was sure that she still loved me. All we had to do was get our priorities right. So from that day on, I worked fewer hours and spent as much time as possible with the woman I loved. Our relationship was eventually repaired and we rediscovered each other.



All of this because of and thanks to Elvis Presley. Thank you Elvis, thank you for helping me hang on to my own Princess, my very own Priscilla!



Elvis has not quite left the building! He lives on in our loving relationship!

Struggling for a great date idea?

If you are looking for a collection of expensive dates to really impress your sweetheart then this ISN'T IT. But if you want 100's of inexpensive dates that cost from $5-$20 then you have found a goldmine of information. Whether you want to make a big impression to secure a second date, put your relationship back on track or just have more fun, keep reading, as this may be the most important letter you ever read…

Dear Friend,

Did you know that while going out for dinner and a movie is one of the most popular dates, it is also one of the very worst dates you can go on? -- especially for couples in the early stages of dating!

Don't believe me?

Imagine this. You're sitting at a restaurant with a beautiful woman and everything seems to be going fine. But after ordering your meals, you realize you can't think of anything interesting to talk about. You try to think of something… anything!…

At that moment, your palms sweat, your heart thumps, and your mind begins to race at 100 miles an hour, as you notice her looking around the room disinterested.

You're losing her.

And after two hours filled with awkward silence and generic questions, you take her home…

…only to be struck with the cold sinking feeling that you blew your chances forever.

Still think dinner is a good idea?

Don't get me wrong, dinner can be great but it's just too hard to make a good impression over dinner.

And if you're always going on dinner dates with a long-term partner, it's likely that things are getting a little stale and you're dying to try something new.

Dinner dates are a bad idea! It's just too hard to make a good impression.

Either way, you want to keep having lots of fun with a special someone and you know that going on original dates is perhaps the very best tool to accomplish that.

But Finding Unique and Creative Date Ideas Is The Hard Part!

Let's face it, trying to come up with cool unique date ideas is tough!

Honestly, it could take you hours searching only to come up with average ideas like: "spend the day at the beach or cook dinner at home." These ideas are 'okay' but there are much better ideas.

And that's where I come in.

You see, after realizing that people are starving for new and refreshing ways to spend time together, I decided to sit down, recall and write down all the fun-filled dates I've had with my wife Athena over the years. The result is a quality collection of date ideas from friends, family and myself.

But Why Should You Listen To Me and My Dating Ideas?

My name is Michael Webb.

And for the last 12 years I've been teaching people how to have fulfilling and successful relationships that last a lifetime through the power of romance.

In fact, because of some of my dating and romance ideas, media around the world have taken to calling me "The World's Most Romantic Man," "America's Romance Expert," "Mr. Romance," "The Martha Stewart of Romance" and other interesting monikers.

I don't necessarily agree with the titles, but I do aim to be the world's most loving husband to my wife of 17 years, Athena.

Not to mention I have been featured in media countless times.

Including every major newspaper in the United States, dozens of magazines and over 500 radio and TV shows such as Oprah, The 700 Club and Men Are From Mars / Women Are From Venus, sharing my tips and secrets with millions of viewers worldwide.

In addition, I am also a bestselling author of 11 books on love, romance and relationships.

My first book, "The Romantic's Guide" is a national bestseller. It was released in February 2000 and is already in its sixth printing.

All in all, I am regarded in the media as one of the nation's top experts on love, dating and relationship matters. So YOU KNOW you're in good hands with my date ideas.
