abillybob Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Hey Guys Today I've been with my girlfriend 5 years now, and to be honest I don't know what to do for her! If anyone has a cool different twist to just going for a meal and a drink I'd be most appreciative Cheers Alex
jamesreedersmith Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 How about an extreme sport type of thing (fast cars/ bungee jumping/zorbing/ speedboat ride) depending what takes your fancy.
featured_spectre Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I have been with my mrs for 8 years now, depending on the weather, why not go for a hike. It is different, just the 2 of you, nice scenery, and depending on where you go, could have a picnic as well. My mrs and myself do something different every year.
abillybob Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 Haha cheers @jamesreedersmith I'd of never thought of that but she's a bit of a picky one, especially in this weather I don't think she likes being out when it's cold!
abillybob Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 Good idea though when I met her I was 14, our first date was going to the local spar picking up loads of fizzy drinks and chocolate and watched Saw 3! Don't say I don't know how to woo a girl :|Recreate your first date??
bondbill2k2 Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Good idea though when I met her I was 14, our first date was going to the local spar picking up loads of fizzy drinks and chocolate and watched Saw 3! Don't say I don't know how to woo a girl :| Doesn't sound that bad. My first was food at the crown in bridgnorth followed by the cinema
Tesla Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 congrats, it's 5 years together for me and my better half in March, im struggling for ideas too! Saw 3; good choice, girl gets scared, clings onto you for dear life, well played
bladedanny Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Good idea though when I met her I was 14, our first date was going to the local spar picking up loads of fizzy drinks and chocolate and watched Saw 3! Don't say I don't know how to woo a girl :| Throw in a bit of xbox and that's my ideal date.
abillybob Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 @Tesla, I think I was more scared then she was! @bondbill2k2 I really dislike the bridgnorth cinema it dosen't even have cup holders! AHHH
bondbill2k2 Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Bag of chips from hightown then go sit by the river if the benches arn't under water yet, sorted. Can of superbrew can always lighten the mood.
abillybob Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 Guys come on there must be some women on here that know how they like a date, better than all you lot saying watch Saw 3 again but chuck in an xbox HAHA! I just don't want to do the same old but at the same time she wouldn't go outside so the hiking and stuff is a good idea but won't work on her! Anything else??
featured_spectre Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 in that case, a red letter day event. She can pick up to a certain value 1
bladedanny Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 It wasn't a special occasion but one of the best things I've done with the Mrs was an overnight stay in London and went to see Shrek. We both really enjoyed it. 1
abillybob Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 Good idea I'm going to have a look online now see what I can find!
bondbill2k2 Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 We tend to go away for the weekend and choose somewhere different we haven't' been each year, little look on trip adviser for locations on hotels,nearby activities and restaurants. Booking it last minutes out of the blue makes it more interesting for both of you. Generally tend to book it within a couple of hours drive and go the Friday night
Danp Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Must be a lucky day, it's my 15th anniversary today
Vasriel Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 We could turn this around and ask, since you have been together 5 years what is she doing for you to celebrate? 1
abillybob Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 @Vasriel, I don't have a clue normally not a lot. She's at college and only works part time, that and her insurance costing her £300 a month for the year she dosen't have really any money she works hard though, I wouldn't want her struggling I'd rather her save up as we are going to Villamoura this year which will cost in excess of around £800!
fiza Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 We could turn this around and ask, since you have been together 5 years what is she doing for you to celebrate? Are you crazy? 1
Vasriel Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Are you crazy? lol not normally but my 1 year old daughter hasn't been sleeping well this week. Think I may have had in total 15 hours of sleep since sunday
nyiss Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Best surprise a guy did for me was a scavenger hunt, he left little notes with memories or special dates on and had me go to each one and so on an so forth. It was a nice reminder of all the little things we had done together over the years...turns out he was a complete (unpleasant word) but I can't knock his effort!
fiza Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 lol not normally but my 1 year old daughter hasn't been sleeping well this week. Think I may have had in total 15 hours of sleep since sunday I knew there had to be a reason!!
visioN Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Birds birthday is in March. I've booked us a introductionary lesson to Skiiing at the XScape in Castleford 90 minutes for £29.99 each! (both never done it!) - which is a bit different! The second day I've got us a hotel in York which is a really nice place with lots of day activities to do! Minister, Chocolate museum, The Shambles, Ghost walks, decent pubs, nice resturants etc!
