Date night?
71
Sun, 10-03-2004 - 1:07am

Kim and I have date night once a week, almost every week. We feel it is a very important time for us to reconnect as a couple, take the time to just stop and breathe for a moment. Although we see each other almost every day, during the week I don't get home till about midnight and she has to leave for work at 7:30 the next morning - so though we see each other, and LOVE that time together, date night is our one night that we actually have plenty of time, can take things slowly, and just be together.


Which leads to the question...


We go to dinner every week and then sometimes a movie afterwards. I really enjoy doing this, but would love to surprise her with something new and different sometime. But...


I'm drawing a blank. Completely. I've been thinking about this for a couple of weeks, and I just don't know what to do. I need ideas. And you don't need to be coupled to offer your thoughts on this. I'm looking most especially for CHEAP ideas. A splurge now and then is fine, but... ya know.


And don't worry,

Enjoy that while it lasts because let me tell you, It begins to dwindle off after the first year. After about 5 years you start buying each other gifts like wooden rollers etc. to massage your own dang back. lol! We promised it would never come to that. No way! Not us!

But, I want to hear how many massages you are getting/giving after say 3 or more years!

Last time I offered g/f a back rub she said, "oh, ohhhhh, what's wrong?"

Last time she offered me one it was more like, "Well, I wish I could rub your back for you but my nails are still wet."

You'llllll seeeeee,

lol,

Hugs, Laurie

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,

We wore shorts and t-shirts Sunday and it was in the low sixties in the early day.

It has been getting in to the 30's at night here. Only put the heat on a couple of times though.

Caly's probably wearing snowshoes already lol.

LOL!


Well, we (read as ME) do have our moments already. But for the most part we (read as KIM) are very giving to one another. I'm sure it does slack off some eventually - but hopefully 3 years from now, I'll be able to dig through the archives and pull up this post and say hey Laurie, we still do mutual massages at least once a week. :) We'll see.


Hugs!

Now, if only I can find those dykes...
