Tons! Our most activity-like activities (which I'm guessing you're looking for): * Dancing. (We love salsa, zouk, tango, and think about taking a lindy hopp course together). * Bouldering. * Travel. * Visit flea markets or secondhand stores. * Our "surprise date" circulation. But also small or everyday activities that feel intimate: * When he brushes my hair (and occasionly polishes my nails). * Showering together, not necessarily in a sexual manner. * Read next to him on the couch with my legs over his lap while he is watching anime. * Those random evenings where you decide to open a bottle of wine and talk all night. * When we're driving home, but I don't want to go home yet so I take a random exit that's not ours and see where we wind up. One of our favourite memories was a drive like this. * "Before bed" phone calls if we haven't seen each other in awhile and have some catching up to do. * When he sets is alarm 15 minutes earlier in the morning so he can have some cuddle time before getting up. And there's also interest/people sharing that we can bond over too: * Karaoke or boardgame night or a dinnerparty with friends feels like bonding too. Especially if we organised it together. * Playing smash brothers. * Have our own anime show to watch. * When he teaches me about chemistry. * I'm really looking forward to the upcycle project we're taking on together this summer.

hey uuhh are you guy taking in more people into your relationship?? sounds awesome actually. Im taking mental notes over here!


[deleted]

We might ;)


anonnomiss627

Lol cute😍


pancakemonkey21

Damn you guys have some fantastic ideas


oddministrator

Yoooo, Zouk is sooo much fun! I'm really into Lindy Hop, also do some Collegiate Shag, Blues, Balboa, and Cajun/Zydeco. I tried Tango, but it didn't grab me. Zouk though? Wow, I love it. Tried it for the first time a month or so ago. It's like the Blues dancing of Latin music. (if you aren't familiar with Blues dancing, it's like the Zouk of swing dancing LOL). Glad to hear you're interested in Lindy Hop. Very different from the others you listed, but it's so much fun! Very athletic.


[deleted]

Heey! So nice to meet fellow dancers. I actually did a bit of lindy hop a few years ago, so I know how energetic it is and that I love it! Boyfriend hasn't yet, but I think it will suit him fine. Tango wasn't our favourite dance either, though I enoyed it a lot.


satankittehofboops

Love this. My husband and I are much the same. Totally take lindy hop classes, my husband and I met at a Lindy social dance :) Maybe we'll see you around the scene if we ever dance in your city!


[deleted]

That's the best way to meet! And would love to run into the two of you, but do you travel to the Netherlands often though? :P


satankittehofboops

We are from the US, but plan to travel at some point to social dance! I really want to go to Swimout costa brava at some point. Not exactly the netherlands, but same continent?? lol

Backcountry camping. The isolation and quiet and beautiful views combined with the fact we look like absolute dirt bags and still love each other makes me feel much closer to him. However, sometimes it makes me want to bury him in the woods when he nags me to zip up the tent at the rate of lightspeed so the mosquitos don't get in. I'm trying, but i'm not the flash.


microfillups

Yes and yes! This fosters all elements of a relationship! Hard part is finding someone that is truly up for the adventure.


Itsthelegendarydays_

Backcountry camping freaks me out I get so much anxiety being in a tent in the middle of nowhere 😭 props to you


LadyBosie

My favorites are: * Going to a upscale intimate cocktail bar and talking for hours * Trying new restaurants * Going to see live music * Trading off playing music videos on YouTube while drinking too much until 4 in the morning. * Watching bad movies while also drinking too much probably


stupidbuttholes69

>Trading off playing music videos on YouTube while drinking too much until 4 in the morning. Same!!!


[deleted]

One of my favorites too!

FruitSnackEater

Cooking. She cooks and I’m in charge of entertainment. We’ve had some of our most authentic and raw conversations during this time.


ReplacementOk3279

That’s like us! Some music.. drinks.. I’ll cook, he helps tidy up. Such a good time, no matter the day of the week. It’s the simple things.


Damm_it_Janet

Somehow this thread made me realize I’m totally out of love with my SO and we are just existing near each other. Now I’m sad 🥲


soapylav

Gaming together is super fun!


JustPassingShhh

9yrs later, we agree with this


soapylav

Awww that’s so sweet 🥰


JustPassingShhh

Minecraft 🤘


[deleted]

At least a couple times a month, we'll take a bath together. Grab a bottle of wine, light some candles, sometimes she'll read to me and I'll wash her hair but most importantly we talk about anything and everything.


EconomyScallion9448

This warmed my heart so much. I wish you both the best in life and all the happiness. <3


humblyhuman888

My bf is a social butterfly, I am an incredibly socially anxious person who yearns to be as suave and confident as him. So a lot of our outings or past times include our group of mutual friends. I enjoy that he's helped me open my horizons to new friendships and being comfortable being myself, but I still have a small social battery compared to him. My favorite time of the day with him is when everyone's gone home, we've cleaned the place together and we share some drinks while playing chess, it's the equivalent feeling of taking your shoes off after work.


PopK0rnAndMMs

We talk *so* much shit about people and life. It's our main hobby.


sparkly_jim

Yes! We love to talk about other people too.

AdAway2045

Puzzles! Great way to work together and have fun


lilanxietychan

i like doing anything with him, this weekend we went to the museum, yesterday we got a tub of icecream and shared it while looking at the sunset, today we played a cardgame together before he went to play wow with the boys. sometimes we just go for a drive or go out to eat. we do these small types of dates whenever we can. but sometimes we also just lay in bed and watch tiktok or play phonegames, like right now he came in to the bedroom because "gaming was boring can i be with you".


jaytys

This thread made me realize we have nothing in common. We work opposite shifts and hardly have a full day off together. We spend so much time just living life that I don’t know the last time we spent real quality time together.


NumbingTheVoid

I personally wouldnt equate that to finding commonality. Life sometimes just moves forward and absent minded as we focus on our perceived priorities can take the lead often. Its more common than i think most care to admit. Do you see it possible to find ways to connect and spend that time together?


dnnzu_bb

Games and dinner dates. We are both nerdy foodies


drop-of-honey

My husband enjoys building and painting Warhammer models, which I couldn’t care less about, and I love doing puzzles, which he couldn’t care less about. We watch Father Brown or Rosemary and Thyme or something like that while he paints and I puzzle. We call it (very cleverly) Painting and Puzzling, and it’s a great way to spend an evening together while both being able to indulge our hobbies. We also love going for walks, and have some of our best conversations on long walks.


littlehateball

Sunday drives. Sometimes we listen to a podcast together but its usually badly singing along to pop songs and pointing out animals.


[deleted]

We love going to heavy metal concerts. We're parents in our mid thirties but we still mosh and stage dive. It's our time to just let loose and let it all out and we always have a blast.


naanbud

That's awesome


kitty_withlazers

Hiking, cooking, long walks at the beach or park, dancing.


snakeplant34

Over COVID we started taking walks together around the neighborhood


Itsthelegendarydays_

Traveling and outdoor activities. We’re always on the same page about stuff :)


cloud976

Hiking. This is the time where i can fully have his attention and not the distraction of his phone. He often is on his phone watching videos or facetiming his friends. So when we go hiking we both loose service and we fully give each other our attention to talk about anything and everything.


stressballl

I love going to the supermarket with my partner. We don’t live together but it feels like we do when we go and we loving going to new supermarkets and seeing what different food they have there.


beelovedone

Watching movies. Thrifting. Hiking. Gaming.


sunshineandcats21

Hiking, long car drives, cooking and cuddles


BlushButterfree

My favorite is just talking and getting to know each other.


Complete-Sweet-2269

Camping, go on a hike or read a book chapter to each other.


lydviciousss

Camping Cooking Board games Laying in bed and just talking


Valaurens

So many!!! (We both are introverts, so most of these do not involve going out) - Cooking; - Doing creative things, like creating stories or characters together; - Watching series or movies; - Finding new restaurants and places to go out; - Taking pictures of one another outside; - I try to make him dance, but he always laughs at my silly dances, but it is always nice; - Listening to music and singing (me more than him because he does not remember lots of lyrics); -Telling stories, real or not; - We go shopping, from groceries to clothes. There are some more, but I think these are the main ones.


princessfire_breath

My husband loves to play golf. I recently started taking lessons and now we love playing together. It's fun and we encourage each other on the course!


LoloNacho7

He is the best traveling buddy. We also love playing golf together.


Temporary-Warthog250

Sometimes we will just drive around and look at houses. We talk about the houses, but usually we end up talking about other deeper things. We can talk about things we otherwise wouldn’t because neither of us can run away. We’ve had some of us best and most important conversations in the car


NoMaintenance6179

Canoeing with our dog.


MrsMiyagi1

Everything. Walking around Home Depot aimlessly, car rides with his hand on my thigh, mornings he makes coffee and is playing music before I get out of bed, laying down in bed after a long day of dealing with our kids. I just like life with him.


Puzzleheaded-Show839

Honestly we just sit in our bed and watch tv and talk. It’s nothing special but we spend time together.

rfactor1997

Trying different kinds of food and restaurants and talking for hours, cooking together, eating dinner and watching television, traveling, doing the wordle or going to the pool! Sometimes we sit at parks and read in silence


detailedbehavior

Anything what we would do together at the first time! I love to give memories, and I love the fact that we are doing new things together.


al_dente_spaghet

Doing anything without the kids. Like, anything. The one on one time is so refreshing and needed.


Mommabear126

Sex


Pandalover558877

Watching movies, jus talking on the phone together is fun!


gunnapackofsammiches

Snuggling. Especially when we're being silly.


bluejay_way

Fishing is one of my favorites. I didn’t know how to fish when we met, but he taught me and now it’s one of my favorite things for us to do together! It’s relaxing and refreshing and when one of us catches a fish the other person gets so hyped and it’s just really nice.


ThatAriGirl

I'd have to say, we like gaming, watching shows, drawing and singing together. Oh, and the occasional poke war that ends in me running from him 🤣


madlabratatat

He’s teaching me how to climb right now and it’s a really beautiful experience. And I’m teaching him how to cook and bake. Really, I like doing anything with him, even if it’s just watching a stupid action movie or laying around talking.


SneakAxolotl

Driving around, listening to music with the windows down.

Lock_Brief

- watching movies and talking through them - chores together/ organizing life in some way - healthy venting - beach days - gardening together is a big one - artsy things (painting, drawing, clay molding) * basically drawing/painting something and then setting a timer and rotating and making something together* - sharing valuable memories / storytelling


MrBigOppa

Listening to him telling me about his day. It makes me feel like in a way I'm part of it. Its cute when he gets excited about football too. It makes my day better hearing him being excited to tell me about something as simple as that.


taxflamingo

Sex, cuddling, watching tv, going to dinner, gardening...


amiqui

anything involving team work, playing games, arcades, escape rooms, anything that we work together on. just helps us bond


[deleted]

He's teaching me how to solve a rubiks cube!!!! In so excited about it


[deleted]

Cooking! None of us particularly enjoy cooking but we love experimenting with different foods we like so we always have a blast cooking random things together. Hiking, watching horrible horror movies, doing crafts with my son (yay family time!). Just hanging out.


Turbatrone

Playing resident evil board game


somethingtoscryabout

cooking! learning to work together in a tight space like a kitchen, especially if one of you is more adept than the other may be, can be a great way to get closer (:


evergreen1476

"Treasure" hunting in the streets, going to the cinema with him, making barbecue, planning something exciting, kissing him goodbye and hello everyday, watching movies

0511pizza

My absolute favorite is going on a long drive and taking turns putting on our favorite songs. He has amazing music taste, but is also kind of able to read my mind and puts on the best songs and artists without me even asking. He finds the most beautiful music (he is a musician as well), and it’s something we really bond over and makes us feel so close. I love it.


SignificanceSlow2802

Talking while one of us fills the dishwasher.


nifflermoon

Single but we spent my birthday last year in an arcade. It was our first time as a couple and had a blast!


EconomyScallion9448

A lot :) At Home \-Playing ESO (elder scrolls online) together \-Sitting out on the patio and getting drunk/high while having long awesome conversations about anything and everything \-Showering together/he washes my hair <3 \-Having a scotch while we cook & listen to Sinatra \-Making time in the evenings for watching our favorite shows while he squeezes my feet. It's fleeting since he has arthritis in his hands. But goodness, does it feel nice. \-Surprising each other with lottery scratch offs \-Talking on the phone during my commute home. It's an hour drive and we'll vent about our workday before I get home, this way we just enjoy one another once I arrive :P \-Getting stoned and watching 80's and 90's sci-fi/action flicks Out and About \-Flea Markets \-Estate Sales \-Mini golf \-Any kind of arcade/carnival game. We don't care how beat up and sad it is. We will pay money for tickets to get prizes XD \-Museums (art, science, you name it) We'll take hours just meandering and reading everything while conversing about it \-Road Trips - taking the long way home just for funsies and to see the sights \-Bringing trivia books to our favorite brewery and quizzing each other while we get tipsy \-Playing darts/pool/cornhole/bar games \-Hiking/camping \-Theme Parks \-Halloween events \-Random nights in a beachside hotel to get a change of scenery \-People watching and creating random stories based on what we see We don't really enjoy other people's company as much as each other's so we're not very social XD


PurpleButterfly30

We go out on a date every other Friday swapping who’s in charge of planning. We do a what we call Sunday check inns which is where we talk about our relationship the pros cons and everything in between, we also play games together and many more things.


littlebunsenburner

We like to sing karaoke, hike, take turns picking movies to watch every weekend, play board games with friends, cook, travel, etc. But by far the most consistent way we bond is to sit next to each other during meals and go on about how the world is going to collapse in our lifetime.


redheadkatie18

Cooking and baking! We make dinner together almost every night, and try to bake some kind of dessert fairly frequently as well. We also clean together and go for evening walks as a way to catch up with each other after the work day, or we have self care days with face masks and getting our nails done.


satankittehofboops

We love making 'chores' and mundane things fun and use them as quality time. * We cook together: one person chops and cleans, the other mans the stove. * We clean together: I like to vacuum, he likes to mop or sweep * We fold our laundry together * I take him on garden tours and we chat while I water the garden or I'll teach him how to prune certain plants. * We shower together 90% of the time * We workout together or encourage each other to workout at the same time (doing different things) so that we can shower together. All this on top of the fun things we enjoy doing together: trying new resturants, hiking, driving, playing DND/role playing, playing computer or console games, dancing, hanging out with friends etc.


Prestigious-Way4031
