What is romantic...

What is romantic two years into a relationship. This is probably the wrong place to ask judging from the number of YAGT (Yet another Girl Threads) and YAOMGMGFLCDMT (Yet Another Oh My God My Girlfriend Left/Cheated/Dumped me thread) but I'm sure there are a couple ATOT don juan's out there...

I'm planning on taking my g/f for a weekend get away in Monterey, and I'm looking for novel ways make the experience memorable.

What do you do after two years, when candle light dinners, eating out, long walks etc have been done to death.

Oh and lets try to spend under 150 dollars a night. =/

I had to ask because I'm out of novel ideas. The folks here tend to think differently than I do so i'd be nice to see a different perspective

To answer it helps to know her interests. Is there something she really loves that you could incorporate into this getaway? Something that would put a smile on her face and let her know you're really in tune with her passions or hobbies, etc.

That all depends on where the Bed and Breakfast is located.

Monterey, CA near Pebble Beach
 
Maybe hiking with a picnic? Just keep everything a surprise that way, although it may have been done before, you get the added bonus of surprise value!

Or else buy her something really silly that she loves...maybe a two gallon thing of bubble bath if she likes that! 🙂

Have flowers waiting for her when you get the room.

Write a personal poem and give it to her at dinner. Surprise her with several small gifts over the weekend. Make sure they having some type of meaning to both of you.
 
Something out of the ordinary that you two enjoy. I know general, huh?
My bf and I have been together for over 2 years and it seems like the same thing over and over.
Maybe a carnival, picnic, room service
Remember the little things count too.. leaving her a message, being a gentlemen.
A weekend away would be enough for me!
Good luck.

shocker?

I concur.

But seriously, after this long, it's got to be something personal, I would say. If there's anything she mentioned wanting or wanting to do, just offhandedly in the last 6 months, work with that.

Room service? You mean at the B and B?
 
please put a lot of effort into it. she'll notice.

since its monterey, there are lots of cute places. 17 mile drive, you can go to carmel, the beach... even the aquarium.

these things are romantic to me because my boyfriend doesn't do these things, so your gf is super lucky. *sigh*

flowers, small presents, doing something she'd enjoy that you never would ordinarily do (i.e. take her dancing)

May I suggest you hit up YAGT.ORG?

Ok seriously, it's not what you do, it's how you do it. I think once you get past the first hump in a relationship, you don't have to keep doing expensive stuff to show that you care or how important they are to you (don't get me wrong, don't become a cheap bastard).

Think of something meaningful to do--maybe take her to the same place where you met her (if possible) or write her a letter telling her how nervous you were when you met her and how you worried you wouldn't be able to *score* but now that you've had, you couldn't be happier j/k. It's the little things that count, seriously.

Just think of something heart-felt and meaningful--women fall for this kind of stuff all the time, well not fall for but it gets them (and it's nice if you actually mean it, but it still works if you're doing it just to get laid).

Can an ATOT Lady confirm this last paragraph?

I agree, suprises are the most romantic things.
