" Lose the Gadgets You can&amp;#039;t really give your woman your full attention if your phone is buzzing nonstop and you&amp;#039;re checking e-mails on your BlackBerry. &amp;quot;You&amp;#039;ll obviously be distracted if there&amp;#039;s any external stimuli, so show her that your focus is completely on her by detaching from gadgets,&amp;quot; says Bobbie Reid, author of Clueless: Real Solutions for Men Who Don&amp;#039;t Get It and the Women Who Love Them. She knows it&amp;#039;s hard for you to tear yourself away from the toys, so doing so says a lot.  Make a Special Plan Normally, you may go back and forth with &amp;quot;I dunno, what do you want to do?&amp;quot; So if you actually have a plan, it feels like more of an event. &amp;quot;Suggest doing an activity alone together for a few hours \u2014 whether it&amp;#039;s going to a comedy show, bowling, or hitting up a restaurant she loves,&amp;quot; suggests psychologist Diana Kirschner, PhD, star of MSN Webcast &amp;quot;Love in 90 Days Boot Camp.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;She&amp;#039;ll love that you took initiative to plan out a memorable night without making her do any of the work.&amp;quot;  Spoon for 15 When you get into bed with your girl, you usually have one of two things on your mind: sleep or sex. Both are nice, but you will win points with her if you suggest just 15 minutes of snuggling. Okay, don&amp;#039;t start gagging just yet. &amp;quot;Simply lying there and holding her, even for a short period of time, can fulfill her need for attention and affection,&amp;quot; explains Kirschner. And let&amp;#039;s be honest, tough guy: You love a good cuddle session yourself.  Pick Her Over Them Don&amp;#039;t get us wrong \u2014 we know that your nights out with the boys are essential to your manhood. After all, our girl time is important to us too. That&amp;#039;s why it means so much to your girl when you occasionally put your buddies on the back burner to spend some quality time with her. &amp;quot;By choosing her over them, you&amp;#039;re making a statement that she comes first,&amp;quot; says Reid. &amp;quot;A Monday night becomes a much bigger deal if she knows you&amp;#039;ve given up watching sports with a bunch of your friends to cook dinner at her place.&amp;quot;  Myth: Women can go a while without sex. &amp;quot;I haven&amp;#039;t had sex in two months, and I&amp;#039;m ready to pull all my hair out. Sure, I can take care of myself, but I&amp;#039;m dying for a hot, sweaty night with a sexy man!&amp;quot; \u2014Tricia, 32 &amp;quot;Men assume that just because we turn them down sometimes, we don&amp;#039;t need sex like they do. Wrong! Without biweekly orgasms, I seriously can&amp;#039;t function.&amp;quot; \u2014Carla, 25 &amp;quot;Anyone can go a long time without sex if they&amp;#039;re forced to, but I know few women who actually want to. Hey now, we&amp;#039;re human too, and we have our own primal needs.&amp;quot; \u2014Heidi, 24 "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
