Wow! A girl who actually goes out of her way for her boyfriend instead of sitting around wishing HE'D do all the romancing! Didn't think you existed! You need to give my girlfriend lessons! haha. Anyway, you sound like you do it all. Now what you can do is elaborate on what you already do and make it better! What KIND of things do you cook for him? WHERE do you take him? WHAT do you make him? Think about these and then try new things. Go online and find a recipe that neither of you have tried that you both might like and surprise him with it. Plan a weekend outing for the two of you to somewhere you've both never been before. If he's been eying something in the store that he really wants, swing by after work and pick it up for him.

It is wonderful that you are making the extra efforts to impress him, however just some food for thought...when all is said and done, is this the behavior that you are going to keep up every day? Statistically most relationships end because the "magic" is lost...things that were great at the beginning of a relationship, are not things that are daily events, so they begin to feel neglected. Just something else to think about, don't go to too far of expense to impress him, because then he will expect it. Having said that---try a twist on some of the things that you have already done--make a great meal and go for a romantic picnic, and enjoy the spring weather. If you are making him things, find a project that you can make together, i.e. pottery, paper mache, paint a large canvas together (naked if you are feeling a little fiesty) and then enjoy cleaning each other in the shower. Try a romantic bike ride or a nice hike. There are lots of things to do together...it is the heart that you put into it that makes it special.

Well, you shouldn't need to impress him all of the time, it's like your spoiling him. He won't have anything to look forward to if you cater to him all of the time which will cause him to expect things from you, putting more pressure on you to always find something better than the last. I can tell you what impresses me, conversation. Whether intellectual, or just rhetorical frivolity, being able to sustain similarly engaging conversation with a woman about any subject is a very good thing. Other than that, I'm not too hard to please. Cooking him dinner is nice, just keep doing that, I'm sure he's loving the things you already do, that in and of itself is impressive enough. Be careful not to go too over the top, it could make him a little apprehensive about how to reciprocate given the time you've known each other.

All those things that you have done are wonderful ways to show him that you care. I Do the same things for mine... you should also do little things. Set up some candles and get some massage oils and tell him that you are his masseuse for the night. Give him a pedicure... trust me, he will love it.... Tell him to relax and give him a foot massage... anything.... You are on the right track, and sounds like to me, if you just keep doing the things that you are doing, ie: Dinner etc.Just make sure that he reciprocates and isn't taking it for granted! Nice to see that other woman care as much about making their men feel as good as I do... TRUST ME hes already impressed.... and don't feel like you have to consistently impress him to keep him, because hes already a lucky man!

Stop trying to push the envelope. Because one day you WILL run out of thing to do and he may be let down. Just be yourself and he'll be impressed.
Remember - you want him to like you for you, not for what he thinks you're willing to do for him.

Be yourself. He likes you for the way you are. Not what you do for him. Sometimes you just got to give up on impressing your boyfriend. If he starts being a jerk all because you ain't impressing him. Then dump him. Sorry. Being honest.

I don't know about him but if you put on leather clothes, high heels, and carried a whip it sure would impress me.

Girl! You shouldn't be worried about that! He should be worried about impressing you!
