    This has been a fun discussion to follow!!

    Ty - you know the girl better than anyone, so you've got to figure what makes her tick... if you want light keep it dinner and a night cap (drinks what have you). If you want more you'll have to figure that one out just don't do a movie where you can't talk and you sit there wondering.... is this a date, are we having a good time?? Ice cream place... whatever keep it simple

    Determined2Drop - everyone deserves to be treated well - EVERYONE. Plain simple. Have you communicated your wants with your BF? I would start there for the relationship... Have you considered that you don't value yourself enough?? Demand what should be yours - if you don't you're not going to get it.. if he's used to taking you for granted... why should he change?

    My 2 cents!

    Good advice TNTPete :bigsmile: Ty: :smile: you seem like a wonderful person. Big hearted, funny, trustworthy, hardworking, etc... I'm sure whatever you do will be great. There are some good ideas on here...I say take notes from Shannon and Fatsis...:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Determined2Drop: :cry: I know at one point I had to demand a change with my fiance. I was ready to call it quits. And when he saw how serious I was he made some changes. You can't change someone completely and if you want to you shouldn't be with them. But compromise is very important as long as you're not compromising your own self worth. Everyone deserves respect and love. And if you feel you're not getting it you need to communicate that. If you love each other enough, you find a way to work through any issues you have....And look at us now 6 months after I put my foot down, he proposed and we're getting married. Been together almost 4 years now and things keep getting better and better. He notices I'm happier, taking care of myself better, and we're getting along so so much better. It's wonderful. Mind you we all have problems at times but we communicate so much better now....You have to communicate and demand what you feel you need. You say you understand and you love him but if it weren't an issue, you wouldn't have brought it up. Communicate and either love each other enough to work through it, or decide if it may be best to move on.


    Thank you for the sweet and kind advice. I have taken it to heart. Thanks to everyone. :happy:

    This topic wasn't even about me, but you saw I needed advice and help. Thank you soo much.

    I will talk to my man today.

    :heart:


    If you need me to stand behind you with a baseball bat so he gets the point, just let me know. :wink:

    I think I'll be alright with out the bat, but thanks! :tongue: Much appreciated, haha.

    Sorry I’m a little late on this post!

    Ty, the last time Charlie was in town I took him to Clifty Falls – it’s a state park with waterfalls and great hiking…we ate at this wonderful restaurant that overlooks the Ohio river and then went hiking for most of the day. Then that evening we went into town and walked down on the river front…I surprised him with a ridiculously awesome carriage ride right at sunset and it was PERFECT!!!...I doubt either of us will ever forget that date!

    I know you two aren’t all that serious or whatever yet, but if she likes to be outdoors and all that my vote is taking her somewhere where she can take in all of the wonderful beauty God created!...trust me…nothing better than that!

    Okay, do you have a minor league baseball team nearby. Those are always fun.
    Or, if you're crazy... a roller rink! hahaha, it's always really funny to see people on roller skates!

    Haha! For a later, more "important milestone date" the best date I've ever been on was a hot air balloon ride! We had a picnic afterwards, and it was amazing.

    State parks are always really cool too, and a lot of them have waterfalls or other really neat stuff that can make for great pictures or picnic spots!

    Goods Luck with your date, although you are breaking my heart a wee bit :wink:

    Date huh...Do people actually date anymore? Around here everyone goes out in groups or with friends...or to clubs. It's been forever since I've been on a date...so maybe I writing this as a good mind-bender for me...what would be a good date.

    Maybe an art gallery opening with drinks (or coffee) after. We have First Fridays around here where all the shops and galleries stay open. Its a relaxing way to enjoy each others company without alot of pressure trying to play to her likes and dislikes (theater, sports,movies). But I don't know. Iused tolike playing pool because it's win-win...If your good and she's bad you can "teach" her, or visa-versa or if you're both good it can be a bit competative...and of you both suck its fun to laugh as you knock balls around the table (no pun intended)...same with bowling.

    Hi

    I'm a little late to this and maybe not the best person since I haven't ever really been out on an official date...long story
    Anyway, try to relax and not sweat it....regardless of what you do, it's so much more about the chemistry and conversation
    I think if I was with the right person, I could have a date at a garbage dump and it would be perfect...

    Good luck and fill us in...

    I'm late on this post too. I completely agree with Kim about chemistry and conversation.
    Anyway, if I was her I'd just be happy staring at your pretty face!!

    Well you may have gone on the date already but I thought I would add my 2 cents worth incase you need another date idea for the second date.
    My favorite date was when my now husband suggested we go for a drive but wouldn't tell me where we were going. He had previously scouted out a beautiful field over looking the hills and valleys. In the trunk was a romantic picnic and a kite. It was great (other than the bugs, don't forget some bug stuff just incase). We ate our picnic, got to fly a kite and then watched the sun set. It was so nice I might just ask him to do it again. :smile:
