What do you do instead of "Going out to dinner"?

In the process of changing my life, preparing for WLS, I have tried to find things for my husband and I to do on Date Night besides "Going out to dinner". The kids want to go to lunch and a movie, and even my mom and I... our Saturday outing is going out to lunch.

So what do you do? What is there to do besides go out to eat, with friends, family, lovers? What else is there? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Jennifer

My hubby and I were just discussing the same topic. We have decided to try water activities over the summer that we have never done. We are going to plan canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding, and anything else we see that looks fun. For the winter (6-7 months long up here) we are going to sign up for different classes offered to the community. Our winter class list so far is: yoga, dancing, painting, and glass mosaics. We will add more as the community schedules them. What a better way to spend time together learning new things! We can't wait!

Challenge yourself to learn to cook a new, healthy meal suitable for the new you! For my wife and I, we are picking something new from a barbaric cookbook and attempting to find mastery and creativity to make it our own.

Have sex with the hubby. You'll be able to try new positions...successfully! ;-)

Girl, I'm looking, too! But for sure I know what to do with him, and how to care for and treat him, once we find each other! But I'm 58 and I don't know where the good, single, solely heterosexual ones are!

BUT...I am looking so good these days, my confidence is up and I am getting out, doing things, going places. Good luck to you, too.

PS: I do have (and have usually had) men calling me, etc, even some wanting to marry; but the ones around are not exciting me at all. Dang. Is it too late for that mutual attraction? Also, folks are crazy these days (WTF!!!?), so it's kinda scary!
