With Valentines day around the corner, what is your idea of a perfect day with your S/O?

Asked by ucme (50047points) January 10th, 2010

Any day not just Valentines. Would you eat out or stay in? Do flowers & chocolates hit the mark or some other way to profess your love for each other.

A perfect day for me is spent inside. With my kids off to a babysitter, we could relax together all day in bed. It is how we used to spend our perfect days before we had children. Some coffee, some back rubs, some sex, some pizza. But not in that particular order.

Wake up early, I’ll put together a little breakfast in bed, a little sex and after a bit maybe head downtown to do a little window shopping or just enjoy being outdoors. Make dinner together, maybe watch a movie or just relax on the deck then back to bed to fool around an fall asleep in each others arms.

It’s not so much about what we do, as doing it together, enjoying the moment, and having a few laughs along the way.

God, no, lol…we don’t do Valentine’s day.

If money/time off wasn’t an issue, we’d be in NYC (that’ll happen in March).

The two of us making breakfast together, getting in little back of the neck kisses, and hugs from behind here and there. Feeding each other whilst cooking. Making breakfast together can be rather sexy. After we eat, hop into the shower together and have some fun—washing each other’s hair and body—perhaps, a little play. Come out, dry each other off and climb into bed. Perhaps, putting on your new Victoria secret skivvies. Even though they don’t stay on all that long, they’re fun to take off. Make love all day. Getting up for a little sustenance from time to time.

In the early evening, bundle up and take a walk along the beach (have a warm blanket with you). Find a nice spot, sit and wrap the blanket around the both of you and check out the the blue-black night sky filled with a million stars. Hold each other; long passionate kisses. Realize that it’s way too fucking cold and head back home. Have a hot alcoholic beverage, kiss her hands and place them between your legs to try to warm them up. Undress, and hop back into bed.

This would a normal weekend. Valentine’s Shmalentine’s. ;-)

I’m with @Simone_De_Beauvoir. Holidays aren’t much of a big deal to me.

Honestly I love what we do pretty much every weekend: go for a run/hike, see a movie, do some shopping, catch up on work, whatever during the day. Plan dinner, go to a couple stores to get exactly the right, fresh ingredients, spend the evening cooking, and then play cards or watch a movie and go to bed.

The two of us waking up in a memorable getaway spot where we’d order breakfast in bed then head out for afternoon train ride including champagne, nibbles and plush seats meant for four.

Anything that doesn’t take place on February 14th. We don’t do VD.

Any day we have together is a great day. We are home bodies, so eating in and piddling around the house, catching up with the DVR or renting a movie fulfills us.

All day in bed. Sleeping, talking, enjoying each other’s company.

I did state any day could qualify for a love in. I personally don’t need a day society deems as “special” to show my feelings of love. Just a crass exercise in commerciality to me.

I don’t have a S/O but you’ve reminded me that my new year’s resolution was to fall in love with myself this year…so you’ve prompted me to make plans for V Day well in advance… so just wanted to say thank you for that….

It’s a Sunday right, so…I might take my son to a local play house (activity centre things..) in the morning and play recklessly with him for a couple of hours, then have my mum and dad look after him in the afternoon, whilst I take myself off to the cinema and buy myself my favourite Starbucks and eat naughty things, then I’ll come home, pick my boy up, prepare myself a special meal and once my boy is bathed and in bed, cook aforesaid meal and enjoy with a very expensive bottle of red wine and a really really good film….

that’s one idea off the top of my head anyway…. I wonder how I could spice it up a little…

ucme's avatar

@lynneblundell Absolutely fantastic idea. I’m all for a bit of self love…. ahem… I mean in a clean way…. oh dear that came out all wrong~ Seriously though go for it if you can’t love yourself… right? Enjoy!

Well, first I’d get a S/O…

ucme's avatar

@loser See above

dutchbrossis's avatar

wake up to some chocolate and maybe some flowers spend all day cuddling. Then go out to a nice dinner together and then end the day with making love.

A completely romantic day would be nice

nebule's avatar

@loser make a pact with me to fall in love with yourself this year and next year we might not need S/Os…you know you are the brilliance you want to see in the world…don’t you? xxxx

Jude's avatar

@lynneblundell I think that he should, as well. @loser, I think that you’re awesome.

DominicX's avatar

Eh, we’ll be 200 miles away at different colleges, so I won’t get to be with him… :(

But we’re gonna webcam hella much on that day. :)

casheroo's avatar

@tinyfaery We don’t do VD either…or the relationship would be over. lol

We don’t celebrate on the 14th, but we do make time for a special dinner sometimes during February. My husband is in the service industry. I’ll never see him on valentine’s day, or mother’s day.

Flowers, a nice meal and some Candles is good for us!

ubersiren's avatar

Some alone time, without the toddler, nice dinner in, movie in, sex, snuggle and bedtime. Not so extraordinary, I guess.

wundayatta's avatar

It doesn’t matter. I just want to be able to be alone with her. After that, just looking at her will make me happy. I’m sure other things would happen, too!

Sophief's avatar

He’ll bring me flowers in bed and then we’ll just close the world out and just be together.
