FlowerParticipantHi All,
Me and my boyfriend have been going through a terrible time. things are now finally back on track. ive gotten all lies out to him and am about to embark on a journey to stop lying to myself so that i can forgive me for some things ive done in my past.
anyway we are saving to go and see my family in Australia so we don’t have a lot of money but need to get out of the house and do something to just enjoy each other again
anyone have any cool suggestions other than the standard, walk & picnic?all suggestions appreciated

-Old films at an old cinema

-Go for a hike/camping night out
-mini golf
-take a day class (ceramics,woodworking,art)
-go to the symphony or free concerts
-Rock climbing in the gym
-work on a puzzle together
-read/write stories/poems/anything that interests you both.
-Go DANCING
-I like being active and some things that I found fun to do with my girlfriend were kayaking, biking, running, yoga, and tennis.
-Go on an adventure/driveBest thing I would personally do is go somewhere nice, get a cup of tea and just talk.

FlowerParticipantHi
yeah i think we will do the camping, and cheap cinema. we live on a small island so lots of beautiful places to visit but sometimes no a lot of cool cultural things to do.
i agree with ur best thing, thermos of tea, drive, sit chat admire the view ๐Thanks ๐

JodiParticipantHere are some my boyfriend actually came up with:
1. Coffee shop (try a local place rather than a chain for more ambiance/feel)
2. Dog Park (bonus if one or both of you have a dog to walk)
3. Picnic – could even be some cheap takeout in a city square
4. Skating (ice or roller). So what if you’re no good – show some vulnerability
5. Farmer’s market (stroll past the booths, buy a couple pieces of fruit)
6. Bowling (it’s not about the score, unless you both want it to be)
7. Trivia night at a local bar/cheap eats place. Impress him/her with your useless trivia knowledge
8. Carnival/State Fair – Popcorn and cotton candy aren’t all that expensive.
9. Zoo – because who doesn’t love cute little animals
10. Hiking – enjoy nature, pack some trail mix
11. Art galleries – if you catch an art walk night you can even get free wine and cheese
12. Local community theater -
