and he feels guilty. Before he met me he had purchased season tickets to a local sport event. During the week he has 2 tickets and I go with, on Saturdays he has one, so I cant come. he feels guilty but does have a way to fix it. Thing is I dont care that I can't come. Its a night to relax. I am new to town and dont have a lot of friends my age (my coworkers are my main friends--they are married with grown kids I am mid 30s)

So here is my question. What would you do on a saturday night if your bf couldnt go out? Any ideas?

pehaps there are events going on around town , and it's a good way to meet people as well


look in local papers to see what's going on, there's always something - check out your local craigslist.org under activities

I usually gather my girls and go out myself. My bf is quite busy with work and a class he taking every saturday...and if he wants to go out with the guys, then I call up my girls and I head out...or sometimes I just stay at his place, watch TV and eat and wait for him to come home.

When I was in an LDR, I would either make plans with friends, or I'd enjoy a night home alone with DVDs or catching up on reading magazines or books. My schedule's pretty busy, so a night off with nothing planned is actually something I really enjoy!

sheri I am with you. I enjoy the night off....especially being new to town with no gals to gather I ussually take the night for myself. I talk to people all day long at work, sometimes its nice to kick back. but it was a source of tension no matter how much I said it was ok...teri aka galbutterfly

during the week, I filled my time with yoga, pedicures, cooking, etc. the problem was the traditionally designated date nights....now I am trying to learn for the next relationship....
