Really cheesey but i always wanted somebody to run me a bath with rose petals in and fill the room with candels and a bottle of wine.

Or...

Plan a trip away and dont tell her about it just tell her to pack a bag.

Or...

Take them out for a meal.

The beach at night is really romantic too, but you have to live next to a beach.

Off topic- but what are you studying?

well on valentines day this year, I ran her a candle lit bath with roses petals leading to her card and to the bath (quite funny u mentioned it was this year) she cried with emotion.

We have done the going away bit before on a spur of the moment, I am planning to take her to the beach probs newquay on monday, she knows about it and wants to come, but I hope its for the right reasons.

Oh and we have been out for several meals. I know her favourate place, just too close to home not sure if it would be best if we got away for a bit, from the same places etc. It will cost me over £100 for the meal and probs not much more for the night away so i think the night away maybe a good idea?

Anything you would do to create an atmosphere and set the mood. I know I can have sex with her whatever but its not all about sex, I want the commitment.

Cheers

P.S. Ive taken a few years out, im hopefully away to edinburgh to study maths w/management. This means if things work out she, n daughter, will have to move away with me which we were planning to do not so long ago.

Flowers are romantic, but nothing too fancy, just something small and cute :smile:
I let my girlfriend make eye contact with me. We had been going out for 6 months and I felt it was time she came out of the kitchen for a break. It was quite an emotional experience.

Nah, what I have done is supprised her by taking her into London (she had no idea) to see a re-release of The Nightmare Before Christmas in 3D (her favourite movie). Then I topped it off with a nice romantic meal before going back to mine for a night of pure passion (watching Top Gear).

the thing that i've done that was most appreciated was when my girlfriend was feeling quite down, so I just put a single rose with a hand-written note attached to it on her desk for her to find.

I like the idea of the rose with a written note, as she can always read over and over what I have written. Its my birthday on monday, I have a bit of money to spend but I don't really want to spend more than £150, thinking of taking her away for a night to skeggy or somewhere. She loves london but its expensive. What would you guys recommend?

Cheers

On valentines day I cooked a meal for my gf, which was candle lit with 150 pink white and red balloons , which I blew up myself. She was reduced to tears, needless to say I deserved it as my mouth felt pretty rough after all that baloon blowing up.

When I was loved up, which wasn't too long ago, I wrote her a poem.

Have a look if you want some ideas:

Im not sure whether to spend the money on a nice meal, champange flowers etc etc and go out on the p**s or whether to go away to the beach for a night to get away from things. Either way I hope to win her back, which she does sort of want but isn't sure about due to trust etc. So if we are both drunk we can be honest, my goal isn't sex as I could get that either way but to sort the relationship out and start again.
She lets me put it anywhere.

do not understand last comment. But we always end up together we are just not offically going out. We both choice each other for sex etc but I want things back they were before, her moving in etc by doing something really nice and meaningful. I just need advice, romantic meal in or at her fav restaurant or night away? Whats the most romantic gesture you have ever had?

would anyone like to make any suggestions please, she means a lot to me and im not sure whether to eat at our favour place, eat in by my cooking with lots of champagne or to go away for a night?

Something that's original and not by the book. That to me is romantic....the fact that he spent time thinking of the ideas. :love:
Reply 17
well she means a lot and she says i mean a lot to her but she can now hide her emotions. She also says I don't know anything and she isn't seeing anyone, just having a laugh with internet flirting. What ideas can you come up with?

Small personal gestures in my opinion are much better than big cliche gestures
