romantic weekend

[HardToForget]

Ok I am trying to plan a really romantic weekend for my girlfriend and my second anniversary. I’m pretty tight on cash so getting a condo on the beech just isn’t going happen... damn. Anyway the setting will have to be my apartment at college so I need some ideas on how to make it look different and romantic.

I am already planning on taking her out to eat. Than back to the apartment for the weekend. I hope to have several candles and such to help set the mood. But I can’t really think of anything else to help make the space more romantic.

We are planning on getting a few new toys and a movie or two so I am sure that they will get to make an appearance.

So tell me what you got. I need ideas.

That should be a little better.

I agree with Scaly!

I was wondering if I should say something here but did not want to be mean (a girly-fault-thing I guess) but Scaly is right. My former boyfriend/partner - we ended up living together for about 7 years anyway - did not know how to spell. (He did not really know how to communicate either but that's a whole different story). Anyway... the few times he left me a "romantic" note he usually managed to make three mistakes in one sentense. The whole of the effect of his good intentions (no doubt) were gone before I finished the note.

Anyway... that was not what you wanted to hear. So, on a low budget...? Maybe instead of going out for dinner prepare a nice one at home (and set the table with a nice cloth, candles, nice wineglasses... things like that). Pick fresh flowers yourself and put them on the table, next to the bed... everywhere basically. Play her favorite (romantic) music and give her a nice relaxing massage. Things like that don't cost much and go a long way...

Good luck....

What kinds of things is she/are you both into? That would make it easier to give you ideas.

Hey bro!

I'm going to do the best I can to help you out here. But you have to understand: I've been married for 22 years, and I think the last romantic weekend my wife and I had alone was when my oldest son was conceived (he'll be 21 in a few weeks - Ogunquit beach is a nice place to visit )

anyway, you want to impress your girlfriend? then take a look at your post. you have a zillion spelling mistakes there. Now everyone makes a typo here and there, but this is ridiculous. You're either trying to be smart by purposely finding ways to spell incorrectly, you're not taking the time to spell words correctly, or you just don't know how to spell these words correctly. Either way, I hope you don't write "romantic" notes to her in this format.

So, if you're smart, then show your intelligence. If you aren't taking enough time, then slow down put put some quality into your efforts. If you just don't know any better, that's OK, but get a dictionary and study up.

Look, i'm not trying to be an ass, but not too many people are going to bother with your thread if don't want to bother writing something coherent.

That the nicest way anyone has ever told me to learn how to spell.
The problem is I’m dyslexic. I always use spell check when I write but forums don’t have a spell check... at least that I have found. I do the best I can, and so far that getting me a 3.5 in the honors program at college. Spelling is my weakness, my kryptonite if you will. If I can someday master spelling I guess I will have to run for president… jk.

I guess the one thing I would have to tell you all about her is that she loves flowers. I was thinking of doing the whole rose pedal thing but I think she would rather have flowers all around the room/apartment than just a few pedals on the bed. If anyone has tried the rose pedal thing, please toll me if it was worth it because I think she would enjoy it.

I will definitely haft to get something to freshen up the sent of the apartment, like candles and something to freshen up the furniture… I’m somewhat of a neat freak so everything is usually fairly clean, but I will be sure to make sure the sheets and blankets are nice and clean.

I was thinking of getting some fabric and creating some sort of canopy for the bed, I thought this would make the room more intimate, and I’m sure she will like it as well.

I think sent will be the key… thanks for bringing that to my attention as I would possibly have overlooked it.

She tends to be adventurous in bed but also likes to be dominated. I guess I will take charge and make her pleasure the focus of the evening, as I know my efforts will be rewarded… as the are every time.

I had thought of cooking for her. I’m pretty handy in the kitchen so I will have to put some serious thought into a menu… the hardest part will be getting the rest of the guys out for the night, if not the hole weekend.

Tell me what you think so far, I feel like I have a fairly good idea of where I’m going.

Sorry if I rambled, mostly just thinking out loud. Btw. I typed this in word, I hope its better than my first post was.
