What would you enjoy as a romantic gesture from your DW?

[Homebird8]

DH has just started a new job which he seems to be enjoying after several years in one which made him miserable. I'd like to do something romantic to celebrate and that doesn't mean sending him off for a day's activity on his own but us doing something together instead.

What would you find romantic as I don't want it to be all about me but all about him for once?

How about hiring a sporty/classic car and going for a romantic picnic somewhere?

Dinner and/or a posh hotel would do nicely for me. I'm easily pleased.

Packet of proper sausages from the butchers and a nice bottle of Shiraz.

We are uncomplicated.

Or, at least, I am.

Make him a nice dinner and talk to him.

my hubby would say the sausages and wine oh and a bit of jiggy i imagine

Oh, yeah! Some sex. forgot about that. Too busy thinking about the sausages and shiraz.

Lasagne would do it, too. Or a fish supper. And a hand job in the park on the way home.

Ahh, youth. Where did it go?

I once offered to take dh to posh restaurant for his birthday. He opted instead for Jurassic Park at cinema, and shepherd's pie followed by rice pudding at home.

Uncomplicated is right, Barcode Zebra.

The gesture probably does not matter too much as long as it includes lingerie and lurve ..

Dh suggests a blow job.

My dh doesn't give a about lingerie. If I wear anything at all to bed he takes it as a personal insult and says "why are you wearing that old dishcloth?"

I once directed DH to a local beauty spot after a nice meal and pounced on him. He mentions it fondly whenever we pass that way. I think that having been married for a while it's fun to act like hormonal teenagers.

DH would like the wine and sausages too though.

What is it with men and sausages?

elasticwoman.

What about stockings? Nice silk knickers? He surely wouldn't mistake them for dishcloths??

No, Janni. He prefers naked flesh.

Food and sex everytime, works without fail, - men are very easy to please

Food, sex and beer.

Food and beer are optional tbh

How about a PS3?

A bunch of tiger lillies, a framed copy of my favourite Walt Whitman love-poem "Captain My Captain" and some nice writing paper, but then I am uberponce. Apparently.

A Roomba.

ah, Starlight, I suspect you may be posting on the wrong website.......
