One of the best things about dating or being in a relationship with a man or woman who doesn't speak your native language is that when you say something sweet, deeply emotional or naughty in your native language and in a foreign accent, it can add a romantic edge to a relationship and get the blood up and going -- rather quickly.
Something about a taste for "foreign" pleasures -- faraway exotic locations, different cultures, exotic cuisines, foreign languages and accents -- drives up levels of dopamine (the chemical associated with romantic love) bringing out the "romantic" in a majority of people. Romances begin, people fall in love and marry, and couples fall in love all over again.
May be you want to stand out from the pack, want someone to melt and fall in love with you, or just want to add an edge of romance to your relationship or marriage, but can't afford a rendezvous in a faraway exotic location, you might want to try learning a few words in a foreign language.
Everybody has what turns them on and why, but most English speakers I know agree that French, Spanish and Italian are probably the three world's languages of romance. You may think some other language is your "other language of romance", or you may already speak fluent French, Spanish and Italian and want to try something different. That's entirely a matter of individual taste. I personally would love to be able to say some romantic words in Japanese. I think it'd be so cool and sexy in its own level.
You don't even have to be fluent in the language. I know some fluent English speakers -- men and women -- who find a man or woman trying their best to speak English (broken English) crazily sexy.
Just make an effort to pronounce the words right and with a good accent. To win a few extra points, with a date or mate who speaks another native language other than the one (or ones) the two of you share, learn a little more of his or her native language. That's taking it to him or her up close and personal. It may not get you a marriage proposal but it can add a romantic twist to a date or relationship.
It is a way not only to have fun but is also a way of expressing affection and warmth for each other; a statement of the intimate and exclusive bond between the two of you. It is especially emotionally nourishing if you have jokes, innuendoes and phrases that have special meaning to just the two of you. Most people wind up liking and loving each other even more.
So, don't be afraid to start up a flirty "foreign experience" banter with a potential date or mate.
Nakupenda! Je T'aime! Ti Amo! Te Quiero! Kimi O Ai Shiteru! I Love You!
Now, get out of here and drive your man or woman crazy in love... :-)
