Here you go mate...

Here you go mate...

There are loads of ways, the very fact that you are thinking about it is a start. The best gestures cost **** all, the love letter one blew my other half out the water and she did it back and we have kept that going for ages now and I dont mean every week. If the flowers one is expensive just by a single rose and when you leave in the morning leave it on the pillow next to her for when she wakes up. It is easy to slip in complacency in any relationship and even more so if kids are involved, at 42 I know where I had messed up at other times and decided to do something different. This is the key for me, I may only be 25 but I have already been in a 7 year relationship, and I know all too well how quickly things can become stagnant. I think the key is to keep moving forward, doing new things and having things to look forward to. Am determined not to let this relationship go to pot! Problem is mate, all relationships lose their romance to some extent as you slip into the comfort zone. Dont get me wrong, im still romantic at times, but not nearly as much as i was for the first year. I know loads of blokes with kids who have found things improved by once a month having a date night, baby sitter or stay at grandparents and have a romantic night. some found it so tempting to stay in with a takeaway due to being tired or just a break from kids but ended up falling asleep or having an early night but going out was far much sucessfull. We do exactly that mate, maybe twice a month. We pick a night and go to the cinema or out for a nice meal, or even just down the pub on our own or with friends.

I never had you down for 42! Nor me!!! :shock:

Fantastic! So have you secured a pass? It is my 30th next Tuesday Yep, and i got my plums sucked for good measure! Sorry...was that a bit too smutty or before the watershed!?

Apparently it's a danish sort of a day Wiggy. No time for earthquake talk. :winkold:

Damn right. I brought her a nice big bunch of flowers on the way back from golf the other weekend. The first thing she said "why have you brought me these?". As per mine and Eames first responce to Shillzz..."what have you done wrong?" .....which means that you did something wrong otherwise you would not have bought them for her! What did you do Wiggy? Nothing mate! I may have been buttering her up for when i dropped the bomb shell that im out all this Saturday on the piss for my mates 30th...but that shouldnt come into it!

TBF lads, as much as we take the piss, well me and Eames. We have all been at the lovey dovey part of the relationship before. Make the most of it while you can boys, because it dont last forever.

Far too much oestrogen in this thread today!!!

Dude...seriously...that is the gayest thing ive heard in ages! Lie on a blanket and cloud watch!?!? We all have a bit of ghey inside us, wiggy! You've had more than your fair share by the sound of it...... you need to down a beer and fart as a matter of urgency. Beat me too it!

You've changed!!! Man up you big fat gay!!! She's lucky to be with you remember etc etc.

Amen to that brother!

Does that mean what I think it does? Yeah.... what have you done? Yep, you've definately **** up with something...spill the beans Shillzzinho!?

Chill dude, im 100% sure it was meant in jest.

Not too bad for me, its only a 26 mile round trip so only about £120 per month.

7.4 magnitude earthquake hits Mexico.

Careful 'lads', your acting a bit boisterous, lets calm it down a little!

Actually yeah.... how did you dodge that bullet. You're one of them aren't you! He's a spy...burn him!!!

Get some more sleep WR, it'll help put things into perspective. AFAIK nobody feels particularly strongly about all this, and it was mainly just a bit of fun. Am I wrong? It hasnt come accross as 'a bit of fun' to me, but maybe its just me being a bit tetchy. OT has never been so popular, maybe some people just dont like change.

I dont want to seem like im dragging it back up as i do agree to an extent what has been said about posters enjoying themself on the forum instead of talking about painting, the weather and chess. But by making an issue of it, are you not causing a rift between the 2 groups of poster on OT? Its like 'the lads' *rolly eyes smiley thingy* making a point to all and sundry about how boring some posters are etc. Do you see that as fair? Because i dont! You now have people openly saying they dont like certain things that are spoke about etc. which then goes on to divide the forum. I feel somewhat that 'the lads' *rolly eyes smiley thingy* have now been isolated and outcast as some unwanted group of kids that are spoiling the adults fun...well im sorry, but it **** stinks to be frank! You dont have to put names in posts, but lets not pretend people are thick as pigshit and dont know who is being referred to. There is an awful lot of pot calling the kettle black going on tbf. Seems like some of the, shall we say 'wiser posters' who seem to carry some clout around the forum are trying to split the forum and to a certain extent dictate what can and cant be spoken about!? Its called 'General Chat' which means anything can be spoken about. I havnt seen one piece of red type in any thread for weeks so it shows that the mods are happy that no rules are being broken, yet posters feel thay can voice there disapproval at whats being spoken about!?!? Im probably making mountains out of mole hills and am probably isolating myself even further, but if one group can have their say on the matter than so can i. You dont like the subject being spoke about, then dont read it and dont comment on it. There are loads of stuff on here that i have no interest on, and loads of stuff that i dont wish to discuss...you know what i do, i stay the **** away from it. Rant over. Good day gentlemen.

Just...wow.
