I like to think of myself as a romantic sort, mainly because of the way I was brought up, I like to do all that I can to ensure the girl has had a wonderful time and hopefully memorable.

My ideal date would consist of a lovely dinner (would have to be in a restaurant as beans on toast is not that romantic apparently!!!), a few drinks in a nice bar with some chilled music, if it's a nice evening a romantic walk. Then to finish it all off escort the girl home and hopefully recieve a good night kiss.

So what say you all?

Some days it's not even worth knawing at the straps

[neilep]

have her pick me up,

get a greasy kebab (she pays)..

send her into the Offy to get some lager (she pays) all the time she is gracious and compliant..

sorts me out in the back seat...then takes me home and leaves me her car so that she has to walk.

Now that's romance !

Men are the same as women, just inside out !

I prefer without the music as I prefer not to be distracted from the conversation with the perosn I was with.  I would just as soon follow the dinner with a walk in the park, and there per chance to come upon a band playing in the park.  But then, I'm strange, so it doesn't count for much.

You are so bad, but I like it!  It does not mean I would do that though! []

Something spontaneous and not the usual suits me...hot air balloon riding, reading at the fountains, going to a poetry read, walking in Chinese Garden, etc...

Soft music, nice conversation and maybe a nice walk in the evening. I like the woods, so maybe a picnic in the woods with all the little squirrells and critters scurrying about!

As a male, I must concur whole-heartedly, for this is a dream date that full-fills some large degree of desire - for a few hours only. There are then the other hours in a day, or at least breakfast. If the breakfast consist of embaresed bits of verbal mutterings, the prior evening becomes a mixture of positive and negative emotional recollections - not a composite memory of exquisete bliss. Besides, loose morals does not mean a learned and skilled partner in bed.

The only way around these difficulties of a youthful life is to find a woman (or if a woman, a man) of intellegence, with a joy in living and exhibiting a total recovory from Calvanistic or Popeish sexual guilt. Knowing how to please ones partner is important here. But for me, the most important aspect is the intellegence and the ability to amuse one another for more than a night. That delight lasts for a long time, even after the "ice cream" has melted.

When just being in the person's company is a joy, sex becomes MUCH less important.

I am to the point in life where talking is about all that matters. It is unfortunate, but it does happen. [V]

I think for me,

a coffee in a coffee bar at lunchtime with a cake or a cookie to break the ice with a smile and some daylight in a busy mall before dinner that evening is good.

i love the sea, so perhaps a sea side rendezvous first then park the car  half a kilometer away and walk to the restaurant along the shore.

Dinner in a quiet but not too quiet restaurant. It is so nice to share the ambiance of a romantic restaurant with a date.

A corner perhaps inside with a view of the sea and the stars, maybe if the weather allows, we could take our dessert and have it on the beach !

Then, perhaps we get coffee to go and sit down with our feet being tickled by the shore line,then.,the walk back to the car, and a stolen kiss so treasured beneath the stars, with the sea lapping at our feet. then holding hands back to the car. A slow drive home, a kiss goodnight.


i think that is a nice thing to do.

Will you take me out on a date and make me feel whole again? []

That sounds wonderful though, very romantic, and in some ways very private.

another_someone, I know what you mean about the music side, but the last date I went on I took my ex to a jazz bar which generally has some really good live groups. It just so happened that the live group were amazing and made the night just that little bit more perfect.

But on the whole music can ruin some dates or can save your life when you can't hear what she is saying so you just end up getting very drunk and running off as you would rather spend the night cleaning the bathroom.......not that I have ever done that.....never go on blind dates though......

[Karen W.]

Ian, That sounds like a great date, when should I be ready to go!! Seriously that is very nice and especially the last part!!

My best date was one from a packet I bought in 1992. I think it was a Wednesday...about 14:30...March...hmmm..very tasty and succulent !!

I even wrote a diary entry at the time.

" Todays date is a great date because I've had a delicious date today..and to date...it's my besteset ever date. " []



I love Dates...dates are great....I like the big sticky ones !!...and they're good for you too.

Carolyn

[thayo]

[Carolyn]

Hi Thayo - Yes, he is cuddly.  His real name is Herbert, but we call him Corky.  I started calling him Stud Muffin when we were dating.  He is my best friend.

I did recieve your email and sent you a reply.  Sorry it took so song, I didn't recognize the address, but I'm adding you to my contact list.

Carolyn

[ukmicky]

Hi Carolyn you and the stud have been married a long time, thats nice to hear. These days marrages never seem to last more than a few years.

While me and the wife were dating back in 85 her pet name for me was horny, we also got married in september, the 22nd (i think []) six months after we first met.

Michael

[Carolyn]

Hmmm.  Hi Michael.  I can just imagine how you got that nick name.  I refuse to give up my pet name.  Yes, we've been married a long time.  Wasn't always easy, but if it's worthwhile it usually isn't.  The hard times only made our bond stronger.

We met on his birthday in August (I was the best present he ever got).  Were engaged a few months later, and married a few months after that.  Had our first child 8 months later.  REALLY, SHE WAS A MONTH PREMATURE.  At least thats what we told our parents.
[][:0][:0][]
How long have you been married?  Based on what you've written about her in the past, she sounds like a lot of fun.
