Date your Mate: Ten Ideas That Work for New Moms

March 11, 2010 By LoveEngineer.com Leave a Comment

When baby makes three, someone is often left out. Can you guess who? Where does the new father, former star of his home, fit into this new world of round the clock feedings, diapers, and laundry?

Mothers can be very baby centered and for good reason. After all, when God creates little babies, He makes them irresistible, maybe so mothers will endure the rigors of taking care of them.

Yet even during the first months of life with baby, itâ??s important to nurture your marriage. The stronger your bond is with your mate, the more secure and happy your baby will be. Dates donâ??t have to be elaborate, expensive or even outside of your own home. New parents have to be creative about spending quality time together, even if it is just for a few moments.

Here are ten free or almost free ideas to choose from:

1. Look through old photos from your dating days. Reminisce about your first date. What were you wearing? Where did you go? What was your first impression?

2. Share a scoop of ice cream together. Use one bowl and two spoons. Talk about the highlight and low light of your day.

3. Cuddle up and have a movie night for mom (chick flick). The next week, have a movie night for dad (action, drama or comedy).

4. List 5 things you love about your spouse. Exchange lists over a glass of sparkling cider.

5. Get a baby sitter and walk around the park hand in hand without the stroller. Kiss at the swings.

6. Heat up some massage oil and give your spouse a massage.

7. Have a candlelight dinner in your home or backyard.

8. Go to a coffee shop together. Talk about how you can meet one anotherâ??s needs better.

9. Take a hot bubble bath.

10. After the kids are asleep, take a blanket out to the backyard. Lie down and watch the stars together.

As you can see, you donâ??t need a lot of time or money to date your mate. Any of these things can be done even with a new baby. You just have to be intentional about planning special moments together. Donâ??t exchange romance for a diaper bag when you can have both. Just look your husband in the eye, hold hands, shut out the rest of the world from time to time, and date.

Ideas For Adult Dating In Boston

March 6, 2010 By LoveEngineer.com Leave a Comment

When you’re adult dating in Boston it can help you to have a few ideas of where to go on your date. The first date is always the hardest, and once that’s out of the way it’s time to find out more about your new partner. You will find out more if you move away from the more traditional date venues like restaurants, and start injecting some fun into your days out.


Bowling is a great way to spend a second date. It’s fun, and you don’t need to worry about what you have to say next as the activity will create conversation. Bowling is even more enjoyable if it’s a first time for both of you as it will add some humor to the date as you both try and learn how to bowl straight.


Bowling is also inexpensive, and it’s a date that is over fairly quickly. You don’t want your dates dragging out as you want to create an “I can’t wait till the next date” feel in your new boyfriend or girlfriend. Once the boredom sets in the next date probably won’t happen.


Catching a movie is another way to have a date without the pressure of making good conversation. You could go for a drink in a bar first so you can relax and have a chat then go to see a movie. If you’re the man in the relationship then you’re probably better off going to see some sort of chick flick first. Once that one’s out of the way you can then go and see the latest action/martial arts movie.


Roller skating or ice skating are two more activities that can inject some fun into the date. Dates like these are a good opportunity to see just how much fun your new boyfriend or girlfriend is. The more you vary the dates the more you will find out about someone, and whether they’re compatible with you or not.


Window shopping is another fun and inexpensive way to spend a few hours together. You’ll get to find out each others fashion likes and dislikes, and you should get some ideas for birthday gifts if your new relationship blossoms.


A day at the races will be an exciting date. You get the chance of winning a few dollars as well as enjoying each others company. You can have a few drinks, and a meal there as well.


Not as exciting as some of the others, but it may fit well in your relationship is a visit to the local gallery or museum. If you or your partner have never been before then you may enjoy it more than you think you will.

Valentines Day dates for $10 or less

March 1, 2010 By LoveEngineer.com Leave a Comment

Just because weâ??re stuck in the middle of a recession, doesnâ??t mean you canâ??t celebrate Valentineâ??s Day. In fact, there are many ways to celebrate this loverâ??s holiday without breaking the bank. And according to love expert Paul Falzone, CEO of The Right One and Together Datingâ??one of the worldâ??s largest brick-and-mortar dating services with more than 60 offices nationwideâ??many of those date ideas for Valentineâ??s Day wonâ??t even require a trip to the ATM.

â??Sure, the economy could be in better shape. But should that really matter when youâ??re sharing Valentineâ??s Day with someone you care about? We all know the answer to that one. Of course not,â? said Falzone. â??When it comes to Valentineâ??s Day, if people start to think with their hearts and not their wallets, theyâ??ll discover a world of possibilities for romantic Valentineâ??s Day dates.â?

For example,
â?¢ Sunrise or sunset trip to the park or another location where you can snuggle up on a bench with comforter and hot chocolate to watch the sun come up or down.
â?¢ Laundry date: Trip to the local laundromat; clothes have got to be cleaned anyway. Bring a picnic basket. Sharing washers and dryers recoups any expenses.
â?¢ Attend a poetry reading at your local library or bookstore, many of which are freeâ??save the price of any lattes or coffees. Your local newspaperâ??s calendar section should have the info. Better yet, find your favorite poem, dress in a black turtle neck, buy some instant espresso from the grocery store and host your own poetry reading.
â?¢ Netflix chick flick movie marathon – Get a trial Netflix membership and rent all the chick flick/Valentineâ??s Day classics (An Affair to Remember, It Happened One Night, Casablanca).
â?¢ Valentineâ??s Day pot luck – Share your Valentineâ??s Day meal with two or three other couples with each bringing a dish.
â?¢ Sledding (not just for kids)
â?¢ Ice skating (some outdoor and indoor rinks are less than $5 per person if you have your own skates)
â??When we were kids, Valentineâ??s Day meant cut-out hearts that you snuck into the locker of the person you had the crush on. We lost track of that â??itâ??s the thought that countsâ?? approach to the day. Frankly, when it comes to Valentineâ??s Day, the only bottom line that really counts is that youâ??re with the one you love,â? said Falzone.

Catering to more than 300,000 members at more than 60 locations throughout North America, The Right One and Together Dating are the largest brick and mortar dating services in the industry, offering a more consistent product, a greater number of potentially compatible mates and added value of flexibility in transferring memberships to another geographic region.

Perfect Romantic First Date Ideas

February 25, 2010 By LoveEngineer.com Leave a Comment

So you have a date and need inspiration on what to do or where to take them. Below is a list on 4 best first date ideas. Not all will suite everyone and of course modifying them to your type of person will be beneficial to you and your date. For more information please go to www.romance4u.info

Picnic

Picnics are the best way to get to know your partner. Find a beautiful spot at a park or nature reserve and pack a basket of food. Be sure to include all types of light snacks and of course beverages. If you are more of a hopeless romantic then have a evening picnic with candles and watch the sun go down.

Movies and Dinner

Seeing a movie and then going to dinner is one of the best first date ideas. Seeing the movie first is recommended because then at least at dinner you have a talking point (The Movie) to break the silence, if there is one. Be sure to pick a movie both of you will like, if you are not sure of the kind of movies your date will like then rather choose a chick flick or comedy.

Miniature Golf

Miniature golf is the perfect way to show your gentle side to you date. Do not play competitively and show you are trying to win, maybe miss a few shots or miss on purpose. This will show your partner you are considerate and not a show off, remember girls like a guy who will put them first.

Comedy Show

Show you have a sense of humor by taking them to a comedy show. Laughs the whole night through are sure to bring you two closer together. Donâ??t spend a fortune on tickets but be sure you get reasonable seats. Remember if you spend a fortune your date will then grow custom to it and expect it every time, do not fall into that financial love pit.
