What do people at night with their partner when they go out ??

[RandomnMe]

finally, I have found the man of my dreams in my 50s. He is wonderful and we go out quite a lot. However, we don’t have many friends for various reasons within the local area and it does mean that to go out we tend to go to pubs or for meals out which has massively increased my alcohol consumption and have gained weight.

I am aware that his ex-wife didn’t like going out very much and he is making up for lost time. I don’t want to let him down. What are everyone’s top tips to go out in the evening together without consuming alcohol or end up in a pub where it’s hard to resist? There aren’t many cultural opportunities here so i am a bit stuck…we don’t want to stay in all the time.

Whether is getting better, long walks . Have you tried geocaching? Adds a purpose to a walk

Join a running club, or go clubbing (will help with the weight loss).

Cinema. Theatre. Gigs/concerts. Board games cafe. Climbing, outdoors or indoors if the weather was bad (up until our 60s, we’ve stopped now). Skating. Football (watching not playing). Author events. Exhibitions/museum late nights. Long walks with or without a pub stop.

Gym (lots of couples there in the evening when it’s not so busy). Star gazing. Folk dancing. Skinny dipping (if you’re near a beach).

Or just swimming maybe 😂

Maybe The OP wants a a more unconventional activity choice 🙂. I’m going to add nighttime bungee jumping and naked yoga to the list.

Cinema
sauna and cold plunge
gym with pool an sauna
comedy watching
life drawing class
cooking lessons

Darts

Gym or swim
snooker
bowling
night walks

i would be bored shitless going to the pub constantly

If you order alcohol make it last by drowning it with a mixer. Alternatively, drink orange juice or coke. You don’t have to drink to have a night out.

Geocaching and roller skating are our main two. You can double up the geocaching with lots of stuff as there’s caches hidden everywhere, city and rural has loads.

My friend and her husband do
dance classes,
choir singing
cooking classes
cinema
bowling
birdwatching.
Wild swimming.
