Married spouses, what do you do for fun with your "partner?"
Posted on 10/17/16 at 9:32 am

Partner can be defined as wife, husband, life partner, partnership, etc.
Must state the following:
1. Your age and "partner's" age.
2. Children, yes or no? If so, how many?
3. How long have you been with this person?
4. First go around (marriage) or learning from your mistakes?
5. What is a typical date outside outside of your home?
6. How often do you have a "date" night in a month, quarter, semi-annually or annually?
:inebeforejustsex
:inbeforeBBC
:inbeforePIIHB
I'll go first.
1. 41 and 36
2. 2 children, ages 10 and 7
3. 13 years (18 years total)
4. First time. Cheaper to keep her now.
5. Dinner at a restaurant with children.
6. Not enough, which is why I pose this question. We are "great at being parents" but need to devote more time to each other in "just" being a couple.
Divorced people are welcome to join as well. Perhaps your shared mistakes with all of us will help others not make the same.

"partner" implies equality, I don't have a "partner", I own a wife.

It's the OT. This is expected.
However, there may be a few nuggets of truth and honesty in here. Maybe.

1. 62 and 57
2. 3
3. 35 years
4. Only marriage
5. Dinner and a movie
6. Once or twice a month we make it out (excluding events such as weddings, Texas games, and such). Now that I've retired, we look forward to spending our time relaxing at home with a nice bottle of wine and a nice meal.

Can you tell me what she likes?
Because when you're gone, she is a completely different person.

A little thing called Brazilian Manflower.

I'll play:
1. 34 and 34
2. 4 children, ages 9, 8, 4, 1
3. 11
4. First time.
5. Family outdoor adventures (entire family). Late lunch and drinks (when just us).
6. Maybe once, that shite is expensive after activity + babysitting. I think, bottom line, if you can't enjoy time as an entire family unit, there's a problem.
I have trouble understanding couples who can only be a couple away from their kids.

Here's a list:
Go to sports games
Go to movies
Hang out with mutual friends
Go to dinner
Exercise together
Read a book together
Concerts
Do a project together (improving your house, crafts stuff, etc)
Learn a new skill together
Play golf or tennis
Obviously Some of those are more centered for adults, but a lot of them you can include the kids
Edit: someone mentioned shopping and you could do that too, just make sure money isn't a point of contention for y'all. It isn't for me, but I know a lot of people in relationships where one partner spends too much and shopping can cause fights or be unpleasant

Your kids are old enough for you to have more alone time with your wife. It's imperative.
