Whether you are in a committed relatinship or just taking them as they come along, most everyone at some time wants to set the stage for a romantic evening/day/weekend.

I am in a committed relatinship right now, BUT, that doesn't mean that I don't plan surprise time for my dearest. There are TWO MAIN ways that I do this, one is with unplanned day/weekend trips to where ever the mood leads. The other is with a special meal and quiet time for that evening.

The meals that I prepare are always different depending on the season and how I feel that day. One thing that they have in commomn however is that they are home cooked by me, not take out, not nuked, and not store bought,,, they may be high or low in calories, they may feature the outdoor grill, or items that are baked, they may even be meatless. The other thing that is always featured in these meals, is that my dearest is NOT allowed to help in the preperation at all,,, she may sit in the dining room and chat, but that's as close as she is allowed to the kitchen. ( and yes, I love to cook and I do it more often than not on a regular basis)

Now, after laying out that ground work,,, does anyone else have anything special that they like to do ? Or do you have something in mind that you wish would be done FOR you ?

This is not a test, you will not be graded on anything, simply speak your mind here. Just because I do things one way, does not mean that I expect everyone else to follow suit.
 
Good man CW.....

Many men don't have a fucking clue. Or I should say - the only clue they have is, fucking.

I say, use all the cliché's - cards, flowers, candles, champagne, jewelry, home cooked meals, etc. - and as you know the real secret is "surprise."

Ya know I can damn near forget our anniversary - not quite, but I can be broke and not get her anything on those important dates - if, if I take/make the time, when I do have some bucks, to "surprise" her with something.

I make the effort about quarterly - I tell ya - it has saved my sorry ass many a time.
 
Special Night

If i want it to be very special, I send flowers to her work, telling her to be ready at a certain time, then i rent a limo, and pick her up and take her to a romantic place to eat, candle light. soft music, dancing, probably take a moon light stroll down the beach, nothing but the best for this special evening we have shared together....
 
And to think that I'm perfectly happy with a pizza, a six-pack and a stack of old movies . . . somehow I don't feel deprived, though. Too much attention makes me nervous.

And I say to each their own,,, if that is what makes you feel good, then by all means induldge,,, if something makes you nervous or causes a sense of doom to land on you, then by all means avoid it.

There are no right answers and no tests are allowed except for those that we may give to ourselves.

Sparky, that has been my impression thus far in most of my adult life,,, and I REFUSE to fit the mold or be sterotyped as a "fucking horney male" when said expression is used as a put down.
