10 Romantic And Inexpensive Date Ideas For Couples


1. A dinner for two underneath the stars

Pick one of her favorite dresses and lay it out on the bed with a note that says, "I want you to wear this tonight." You don't have to wine and dine her at a five-star tavern. A romantic stroll in the park with a bottle of wine and take-out from her favorite restaurant will do just fine.

2. Go apple picking

Other than pumpkin pie, what's sweeter in the fall than going apple picking with your S/O? Not only is it free, but unlike going to the movies, you can reconnect with her while you spend time together. Then later that evening you can make a delicious apple pie together!

3. Take a hike

Tell me, what's more romantic than a beautiful view? I don't think there's anything better than gazing at a breathtaking scenic overlook together. Take a polaroid or disposable camera and take pictures for memories to keep forever.

4. Go on a picnic

A cheap bottle of wine and deli sandwiches and a bouquet of flowers from the grocery store, and voila, a sweet and thoughtful date! It's simple, but it'll make her day.

5. Build an epic fort

What could be cuter than a fort of pillows and blankets accompanied by a bottle of wine (or beer) and a large pizza with a movie / television show playing on your laptop? This is especially perfect for the colder weather. Take this time to be affectionate and let her know how much she means to you.

6. Go to a flea market

Now I know what you're thinking. What's romantic about a flea market? Not much, I'll admit, but they're some really interesting things to be seen there! You don't have to buy anything, you can hold hands and walk around and enjoy spotting nostalgic items from your childhood, or maybe even your parents' childhood! If you want to spend a little money, you can buy some vintage clothes and take pictures later to keep for a special memory!

7. Recreate your first date

This is a really special and fun thing to do on an anniversary, but you can do it anytime you want to remember that day where you fell in love with the way she smiled at you. This is a date that will make her swoon!

8. Tour a local brewery or winery

This isn't the most intimate date on the list, but it's one of the most interesting. Think of all the cool people you'll meet together. And it's free! Need I say more?

9. Take a walk or bike ride on a trail

This is another wonderful way to reconnect with each other and burn calories at the same time!

10. Role-play outside the bedroom

Pretend you're meeting each other for the first time while you're out shopping, or better yet, that you're already married! This is a fun way to spice up the night and give yourselves a glimpse into the past.... or future!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
