The perfect date

18 Jul 2007

I was just thinking the other day of when I met Jay. Dating was fab, I got the butterflies in the stomach leading up to meeting, couldn't think what to wear, you have a bath, shave all your bits (just in case), and the sexual tension is flippin fantastic! Few years down the line and it's .. "what do you fancy for tea?!!"
Does anyone agree that "sometimes" we can get into daily life and "sometimes" take each other for granted?
At the minute, my perfect date with Jay would be a beautiful day, get someone to look after the kids, pack a picnic and rugs and drive off to somewhere secluded, enjoy the picnic and make love afterwards. We'd come back home, have a bath together with candles and massage oils and make love again. cool

Oooh.. I'm feeling all gooey now lol

So we're going to have a spoil our other half for a day, what would be your perfect date?

I would agree we do take our partners for granted at times and I now we both did :-(
One of the best dates we had was after son was born that we could have time to ourseleves.
BIG lunch at a famous Thames side resturant starters, main, dessert drinks before, during and rounded of with dessert wine and coffee.
Afterwards we went for a walk along the Thames to dilute some of the alcohol, and ended up shagging in a field next to river with loads of people at the other end very erotic very fun, shame we did not repeat it a bit more often.
Hope you guys have a fantastic day kiss

If we think about it, a huge number of problems in life come not from doing or having said something bad or wrong but from taking important things for granted.
We all take things for granted. Basic things, simple things, important things, relationships, etc. It's normal, isn't it? Even though I think most of us dont try to, I think sometimes it easy for people to take their friends, family, loved ones for granted.
We live in a world ruled by routines, and the more we get used to the routine, the more dependable things are, the more you stop noticing them. It's only when they stop being there for you when you realise how important they are and how much you rely on them being there.
When I was growing up, I took a lot of things for granted. I suppose we all do at one time or another. Now that I'm an adult (althouh that's still open to debate), I find my perspective on life has changed for the better. Especially since the death of my mother. Silly how I assumed she was always going to be there until one day she was gone. It was then that I felt guilty for not having done more, for not having been in touch more or go and visit her more often.
You can't live your life taking note of every single thing. But every now and again, if examine our world and those that surround us we might not ignore their existence. Someone said to me once how good it would be to start every morning by giving thanks for everything/everyone that is important to us. It starts your day off with good karma - if you believe in karma that is.

I think that it's as awol said before. It took me until I was **(lots)yrs old and some dramatic changes in my life to realise and think on some basic but important 'stuff' In saying that I still for 99.9% of my life still take 'stuff' for granted.
As for starting the day off giving thanks.... I dont quite do that but I do when on waking and first realising my conscious state breathe in real deeply (easier 18months cigarette independant) and that breath is soooooooo sweet I realise i'm still here and i'm happy. For those few moments i really am happy. All in all my world, because of the people init. Is pretty damn fine.
