The answers to those questions would be divulging to much personal information.

lol, at anyrate, a very good meal is a good start. doesn't have to be expensive. just tasty.

just no asparagus or too much garlic 😉

but really how can dinner and a movie be special? I'd say do something like harkin back to the days of youth...go to a concert...go play put put golf...goto a strip clubs (the ones around here have couples nights)

 
it doesnt matter where you go or what you do...

all that matters is that you make her feel like the most beautiful woman on the planet... and she sees in your eyes and in your heart, that she is the only one for you!

movies and dinner are not important. shoney's or ruth chris'

🙂

I asked my wife out for a date this Friday night and I was wondering if you Romeos have any tips on how to spice up a fifteen-year relationship in a few hours?

Initial plan is a semi-fancy dinner and go watch a movie.

Edit: My wife's original movie idea, Star Wars III, isn't going to be out until the 19th like posted below. She is a big Star Wars as I am but I'll have to choose another movie because of the release date if we go to a movie.

Take out the "semi" from "semi-fancy" and ditch the movie. Take her out dancing and/or a five star hotel. As someone else stated, dinner-and-a-movie is high schoolish. You might as well take her to the mall while you're at it. :roll:

 
A night stroll under the stars, leading to a picnic, hire a string quartet to meet you at the picnic spot.
Or if you have any key places/things you did when you first got together, you can try to set up something similar to remind her of the spark you guys had when everything was new and fresh.
 
ahh.. i will argue that what you need isn't going to be found at a nice resturauant or movie house.

You guys need adrenaline and fear. These emotions are similar to the arousing feeling that one experiences during initial attraction. don't go around banging things behind her head or anything, but you could go for a roller coaster ride, or even a cheezy ferris wheel.



 
well. this is comparable to "how would i get out of the doghouse". calls for the same effect, anyway (asskissing 😛 )

if it were me, i'd try to cook for my sweetie. i'd bring out some candles and try to do it old-school in that sense. i hardly ever do this stuff anymore, so when i do, i get extra bonus points.

put on some nice music and cook her a meal she likes! if you REALLY REALLY need some lovin' or need to suck up BIG TIME, you could always do something crazy beforehand, like a load of laundry or dusting. 😉 😛

Crack open the champagne and woo!


Best idea so far.

Beats the juvenile ITB & Shaving comments...

Besides, if she hasn't experienced that and isn't expecting anything after the movie then it is mission accomplished!

Thanks KarenMarie, this is something I haven't been doing enough of lately. 🙁
 
none of these spicey recipes have chocolate. there needs to be chocolate.

do you have one of those fondu places? go for dessert after the movie. I'd suggest going a place like that for dinner but if you go for dinner there's never room for dessert and.. dessert is the best part. 🙂

I do this every weekend, but three screaming kids tend to ruin the mood. 🙁
