My husband and I go out on date nights. In the past it was always going to a bar & dinner. I really don't want to be counting calories on date night. He doesn't dance and movies are out (no connection watching a movie). Any ideas?

    This is not so easy!
    I would suggest:

    Sporting events ( if you like them)
    Fishing (if you like to :))
    Bowling
    Something creative ( pottery painting?)
    Concerts/shows/plays


    Those are a few I could think of.

    I would say you should sit on the floor and fast and then meditate for 3 hours. Its cheap and you dont eat.

    Take a walk and then have a picnic somewhere
    Go to a coffee shop and talk over coffee
    Have a game night with friends, it's like double or triple dating
    Play a board game like chess, but with some sexy rules, like strip poker

    u think that is more fun than fasting and meditating?

    Bowling is def. a good idea if you are into that. If not maybe give it a try and you might like it. I know I do. You arent just sitting on your butt the whole time.And most bowling allys also have pooltables.:smile:

    I love bowling dates. Competitive and fun. Bowl for.... Favors ;) Go karts. Arcade. Anything where you can be silly and laugh are good.
    Pack a picnic, wine and tunes and just drive until someplace looks inviting. Do it at night and have a nice headlight dance.

    Have fun!

    Museums? You get to walk around and there is a lot to talk about. We enjoy doing that a lot. We also like theatre. Sometimes just walking around a park and sharing some chit chat. I personally am sick of just going out to eat and the movies.

    -walk at a botanical garden or zoo-bike ride with a picnic-have a arts and crafts night -board game night-go to a paint your own pottery place-volunteer together-visit a monument or historical place in your area-surprise him for a date lunch during the day where you make it ahead of time if possible depending on job-have him read you a book while you make a romantic dinner at home

    -Just a few ideas..

    My husband and I do date nights, too. The other night we went to a pool hall, split a burger and then shot pool for a couple of hours. We had a great time! We have bowling on our list. We are going to hit the comedy club one night.

    We traveled to a town about 30 minutes from my parents' lake house a couple of weeks ago that we had never been to. We wandered around town and then had a nice, light dinner out. We are going to see Hope Springs this weekend, we'll hold hands while watching it, so we'll have a connection.

    We go to the big flea market in our area occasionally and just wander around for a couple of hours.

    I like the Museum idea but if that doesn't work out then challenge your husband to a cage fight then after that have sex.

    Bowling, Ice Skating, Rollar Skating, Mini-golf?? Do you have any art museums? How about a nice nature hike with a little bag packed with all the right stuff?

    Book a hotel room, even if you can't stay the whole night you can spend a few quality hours together!
