TMAV are producing a new DVD that will feature local guys talking about our relationship with our partner. The DVD will include a booklet with 52 Date Night ideas that are low/no cost (and that doesn’t make us cheap!).
We need 52 ideas – so here’s the ones we have so far… add your own in the comments box at the bottom and we’ll put them on the list…
1. Go out for coffee/desert at a cafe
2. Park up at the beach
3. Visit the local observatory to star gaze
4. Walk on the beach
5. Walk in the park/bush
6. Watch the sunset together
7. Write lists about what first attracted you to each other
8. Visit the museum and talk about what heirloom items you want to pass on to your children/others/each other
9. Visit the art gallery and talk about your interpretation of a piece and how that might relate to your relationship
10. Play/listen to and discuss a piece of music together
11. Dance!
12. Go for a play at the driving range / golf course
13. Make sand scupltures together
14. Design your ideal house and talk about what is important in a home
15. Find a natural object and talk about how it symbolises some aspect of your relationship
16. Find some hot pools
17. Swim in a river (in summer!)
18. Make a fire on the beach and roast marshmellows
19. Both agree to say you love one another and why every evening before you go to bed.
2o. Both write a list of all the things that you would have like to have done in your lifetime and in the future and then both sort through them to see what you could do now and what you can see yourselves doing later. Go on the journey together in support of one another and tick off each thing that you complete of the list… (that should take you more than 5 years!).
21. Man vouchers. eg “This voucher entitles …….. to one week off laundry and dishes duty.” or “This voucher entitles ……… to a 30min foot massage from (Your name here)”
22. Man v woman singstar competition.
23. Photo rally. Cruise around town together taking photo’s of quirky things that represent qualities that you see in each other.
24. Fishing off the wharf (minus the kids) with a flask of hot chocolate.
25. Hair-do night = Do each others hair (Facial hair is fine for those who are folically challenged)
26. All about you night – Do stuff that the other person would love….even if you’d rather jump off a cliff
27. Sing quirky lines from songs to each other.
28. Stay in and bake a dessert together….then share it.
29. Go for a walk and pick puha or watercress (classy and practical)
30. If puha and watercress aren’t your thing….then substitute it for wild berries.
