First Anniversary (1 Month)

[Ravin the Poet]

Well, today is my one month anniversary with my girlfriend. Things between us are going great, and its been an interesting experience. Today I have alot planned for her. I am going to walk down to where she lives (with the suit on ) and pick up the flowers on the way. Who thought they were so much? Then I am taking her to a sort of fancy restaurant for dinner that I found. Then back to my place for a candlelight dance and I am going to read her a poem I wrote.

I am super excited today. She is buying a new outfit today when we go out, which I can't see till tonight. Needless to say, I am excited and can't wait.

Just thought I would share that with everyone.

Have a great day, as I know I will be.

I was thinking the same thing. That's part of the reason it made me smile.

Monthly

I try to do something special with my gf every month.
First month was sex in a car (her fantasy).
Second month was flowers, stuffed animal (she loves ducks) and a massage.
Third month was her favorites bands concert.
I have no idea what to do in 2 weeks though. : ( I am runing out of ideas!

Good times.

Running out of ideas already? Oh my......
On the other hand...... most men I dated did not even consider celabrating first, second and third month, let alone one-year anniversaries! Haha.

M and I did. Last September. We went back to the park where we had our first date and sort of relived it, followed by dinner, just like then. Only different restaurant and our own, mutual, home to return to instead of my place, one year ago..... it was fun and it was sweet....

Ravin, that was so sweet. Lots of women crave boyfriends like you, so never mind the somewhat critical (and I hope to be meant humurous) remark elsewhere in this thread. I would say: keep it up and it will never let you down. Also: please let us know how it went?

so never mind the somewhat critical (and I hope to be meant humurous) remark elsewhere in this thread.

Nah, it's a troll, and pretty ineffective one at that. I've seen it elsewhere on Lit.

I'm one of those people who remembers little dates/milestones, etc, but I don't expect my hubby to remember that kinda thing (he's an "older man," ya know ). We celebrate our wedding anniversary (obviously) and the date of the first time we had sex, and I think that's it. Those month anniversary expenses can add up!

Not that I'm judging. I think it's sweet.

Spoken like a mother of 4 as opposed to a young single person with oodles of disposable income.

Not that I'm judging, I don't have any disposable income either!

I'm thinking maybe in another 30 years. . .

I also thinks it's both sweet and thoughtful. Just keep it small though, don't escalate it each month, it can get out of control quickly. It doesn't always have to be some grandiose thing to be special.

My thoughts exactly. I think we celebrated 6 month marks for awhile, and definitely each year, but I can't imagine planning something big monthly. At some point the really little things and just spending quality time together frequently became celebration enough.

We usually take a weekend trip around our dating anniversary because it's close to my birthday, or at least spend a nice day/evening together because those four years before marriage are significant. We do similar, but a little more for our wedding anniversary, but it's all pretty low-key and about being together.

Hmmm.... thought so already (about the troll). Strange phenomenon though, I still have to get used to....

To celebrate the day the first time you had sex is sweet too. I'm afraid I'll have to confess for M and me that would be the day of our first date. Ahum... well, in fact that's not entirely true since you Americans make a difference between PIV/intercourse being sex and the rest..... eh.... what is the rest anyway? We did "the rest" on our first date ( )

We are not married but celebrated on the anniversary of the day we had our first date (& sex, haha).

The montly thing is sweet but will wear off I suppose. And that's OK. I was only joking when I made that remark about running out of ideas already. On the other hand... celebrating can be done in so many ways that cost almost no extra money....

Thank you everyone for your kind words. The night went off great. I first took her to a restaurant, and she was just amazed. Candlelight, we were both all dressed very nicely (something not seen by the young of today) and it was just the perfect romantic setting. After dinner, she wanted to know what my second gift was, and I told her she was wearing it (she had my suit jacket) and to look in the pocket. She then read the poem I wrote, and I could see in her eyes she was completely touched.

Then we returned home, and I finished the set up of my room. Amazing what you can do when you just clean a little, add some candles and a beautiful women. So I walked her in, her eyes closed and when she opened them, she couldn't believe it. She started to cry for the second time. I wasn't done, I told her to turn around and I went and got the roses. Then when she thought it was done, I hit the play button to some nice music, and we danced. I made her cry again when I started to speak to her, and it was just one of the moments I wish I could relive.

She had an amazing time. All her girlfriends are jealous and wish they had that done to them. I went all out (and to think I spent 1 day thinking of this) because this is my first relationship and first love, and just wanted to make it special. I now have her scared (in a good way) because as I said, I thought of this in 1 day, and have a plan I have been working on for awhile in my head.

It was a great night, and I can't wait to do it all again. Yes young and in love is amazing feeling, and glad I found someone special to share it with. Again thank you all for your kind words. Hope everyone feels as great as I do!!

I agree with the cost nothing. Well little. She was really upset one weekend when she came back to where we go to school, because of personal things at home, that I planned a dinner for her, and did it all on the fly. Even added a little candle I found in the housse (in a shot class since we have no holders) for a little romantic flavor.

And when she was feeling stressed by school, and just everything, I bought a small rose, and a stuffed duck (the duck because it's a inside joke) and that just made her day. She now has that duck sitting on her desk to always keep her happy.

Yes, small things can sometimes get the biggest reaction. It's not the amount of money, its the amount of heart in something that matters.

AMEN! Sounds like you done good!! and I would have melted right there if I had gotten a poem written specifically for me

Interesting thread as I met a woman one month ago and I've got to say she has somehow gotten inside my heart/soul more than I would ever have imagined!
Such a good person and extremely sensual! we seem to have connected on a level that amazes me!

This thread makes me realize I need to tell her how much she means to me!
I will...
perhaps I already have

I love a man who is able to convey his feelings to a woman. Sounds like you have a lucky lady there! I bet she already has a good idea about how you feel about though

Oh, get a room you two . . .
