  • The way to my heart is doing the house work! Not everyone’s idea of romance, but you would definitely win my heart with that!


  • It’s about thought and effort not the $ fairy lights a blanket a picnic under the stars a nice home cooked meal flowers from aldi spontaneously doesn’t need to cost much a heartfelt note hidden in her lunch etc


  • How cool to see a gentleman participating on this site :) Give her a rest from her daily routine. Do some housework, do some childcare duties and cook a meal while she enjoys a glass of wine. It’s easy to please a mum


  • A wonderful dinner waiting when she gets home with a bottle of champagne and candles to create a romantic evening!


  • Cook a beautiful meal & eat together by candlelight.
    Run her a bubble bath by candlelight.
    Have a picnic in the park.
    Go back to the place you first met.
    Find an activity she enjoys & do it with her.
    Pick her a bunch of flowers.
    Buy her a teddy bear.
    Make her something, something from your heart.

    I wish you the best of luck.


  • I don’t think you actually have to do anything to be romantic – I love going for a walk with my husband and just talking and being together


  • Make her a nice dinner, grab out some candles. Take her to the beach for a long walk. Make up a picnic and blindfold her take her to a beautiful park, hold hands, and cuddle her. Ask her how her day was, how she feels etc, make it all about her,


  • Also; a picnic at a park.


  • A special home cooked dinner.


  • Cook dinner with a girly movie for afterwards, maybe help do a bit of housework. You could organize a picnic in a nice park or by a lake/river/beach.


  • Coupon book is sooo cute!
    One time my partner ran me a bath, lit candles, put towels out, bowl of strawberries and Doritos (favorites of mine). Everything I needed was there.
    In the meantime he was making my favorite dinner. He timed it so that when I was finished, dinner was ready. I felt so rejuvenated, loved, special and we didn’t even have to leave the house!


  • Hand make her a coupon book with ones like night off putting kids to bed, night off cooking dinner or other such things you can do for her


  • Helping her out around the house probably means a lot more than you think.
    I don’t know her so I’m not too sure but just hiring a $4.00 movie and cuddling on the lounge is a perfect ‘date’ night for me :)


  • Well all our moms on here have given excellent ideas so I wish you all the very best of wishes .. and my tips :can’t go past a meal and candles and a good movie = meal, well if I don’t have to cook or make it, anything would suit me, candles can be purchased at the reject or $2 shop, movie, borrow from family or friends or hire one, they aren’t that expensive. BEST OF LUCK and lovely to have you on here. :-)


  • Very small thoughtful things that are personal to you are great. For example, my husband once bought me a smurf holding a bunch of flowers, because he remembered I collected smurfs as a kid. Cost him $3 and really thrilled me. Or a card with a really thoughtful personal message. Or small thoughtful gestures – my husband doesn’t drink tea, but I do, so he learnt to make a cup exactly as I like it so he could bring me one in bed in the morning.


  • Maybe take her to a park and have a lovely picnic or make her a nice meal at home and rub her feet give her a massage,


  • Yes ‘Act of Service’ would be the best way to romance her. Make her a meal , give her a night off, even rent a favourite movie of her’s that you can watch together.


  • This might sound silly or not be relevant for you, but I would absolutely love it if I came home to find my husband had tidied and cleaned our house and cooked dinner (leaving the kitchen clean) and was going to put our son to bed afterwards (if applicable). It may be simple but just knowing that all my normal evening tasks had been taken care of and having a nice clean house to sit and relax in would be the best present. A few candles around the place and a chocolate to snack on while curled up with a blanket reading or watching TV wouldn’t go astray either.


  • Pick up a bunch of flowers, cook her dinner and make/buy her a card. Thoughtful gestures go much further than booking a table somewhere. Maybe even cap off the night with a foot massage or the like.


  • cook a 3 course meal. Soup is cheap, a small main, home made dessert can be made cheaply as well.
    light a candle when you have dinner.
    light a candle in the bedroom.
    run her a bath..with candles (seems to be a theme here) and a glass of wine
    give her a shoulder/neck massage
    write her a poem or letter
    take her to a look out, wine and takeaway or picnic
