O.k So my man and I have been dating for a few weeks now and I wanted to do something special for him. You know like take himout on a nice date, but I want to try to do something thoughtful and somewhat original, but not too over the top since we haven't been dating that long. I have had a few ideas, but they seem too elaborate and better suited to an anniversairy or something. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I don't know how original this is, but how about a nice weekend trip somewhere?

You know doing something nice for your guy might not need to entail you going all the way out. Maybe you should try to cook him a romantic dinner. You know with candles and such. Sometimes just making a special effort, like going to the trouble of cooking your man's favorite dish, means more than a big production.

Romantic date, hmmm. Not everyone's fancy I'm sure, but if both you guys are into the sort of thing, going to a play or something like that is always an option....just 'cause I don't think it's a very typical date, it can be romantic.

I'd just pamper the hell out of him for a whole day. I'd love it if a boy did that to me! So romantic, and sensual!

Cool. thanks for the suggestions. I think I will go for the romantic dinner idea. I enjoy cooking and I think he would enjoy that. I like the idea of a getaway brawny1, but I think I'll save that for his B-day.

Ok....so in a different post a few minutes ago, I just thought of something else you could do. Do the whole dinner, whatever romantic stuff first, and then have the bedroom all ready to go for some afterwards fun...you know, like light some candles, have some music playing, maybe satin sheets if you have them....just another idea of how to to it all off...

Ohhh satin sheets are yummy

Yeah candles add a whole other level of romance and sexiness to a mood, especially scented candles. Actually, you know it is a shame it isn't winter because having blankets and pillows set up in front of a fire place is so romantic and it surely doesn't hurt the mood either.

A warm fireplace, some soft blankets, and a good looking man - now that is a good way to spend an evening.

Nothing wins me over faster than a man who invites me to his place and cooks me dinner. Music and lighting go a long way toward sealing the deal as well...

I also agree, but no dinner is complete without a great dessert! Satisfy my sweet tooth, and I just might satisfy a craving or two of yours in return!

I like an active guy who's not afraid to get a little dirty. I met my current boyfriend at our town's fall fair last year. I met hime while we were both bobbing for apples! Then we had quite a good time together on the hay ride...
