Date Night?

When was the last time you and FI/DH had a date night? Where was it at (concert, dinner, movie, etc)? How often do you try to have a Date Night?

    DH and I try to go to dinner at least once a week. Sometimes, it's more like once every two weeks when we're busy though.

    We try to have a "Date Night" at least once a week, even if it's just staying in with a bunch of movies.  Our last outing was to get italian ices at Rita's (best I've ever had) and see "Pirhana 3D"...  :)

    Our last date night was last Saturday night.  We went together to register for my bridal shower and then out to dinner and margaritas.  Our next date night is Friday night. We are going to have Thai food and wine and prep our invitations to go out.

    We aim for once a week, but it's hard w/ kids and all. I admire you ladies with younger children that still make time to "drop it like it's hot"!

    We have date nights on Friday and Saturday nights, usually. We go out to eat and maybe a movie if we haven't seen everything. We go shopping. We've done bowling and shooting pool. I want to do rock climbing next and surprise him.

    The last thing I remember us doing is going out to eat. {But we do that at least 3 days a week.} And last night we watched a movie.

    Our last real date night was a few weeks ago when I was last with my FI. We went to see the movie Knight & Day followed by dinner at my favorite place in Belgium.
    When we are together we try for at least once a week, normally like a Saturday night or the whole day on Saturday or Sunday. Now since I'm back in Cali we have skype dates and we play Uno on fb together...lol.

    Well FI and I really only get to spend time together on the weekends so we usually have date night on Friday or Saturday.  We'll usually got to the movies and out to eat, or we'll cook together and watch a movie at home.  This past Saturday we went to the movies, then went to eat and play games at Dave and Buster's.  We had a lot of fun.

    We have a date night twice a month maybe three times. We have 2 daughters and when we do outtings w/o them I feel kinda bad. Fi insist that we get some alone time out and about but i'm a home body so some nights we just get a movie and stay up late and bond

    With the wedding so close, we haven't been out in about 3 weeks. Typically we do the dinner and a movie thing. Sometimes we take a walk through a park or just order an On Demand movie from TV.

    Any night could be date night for us. We went and walked around the mall this past Monday in fact.

    We make almost anything a "date night".  Sunday I surprised him and took him dinner adn then we came back to my house and watched Bridezilla and My Fair Wedding..FI gets a good laugh at the nonsense some women do.  When we want to do date night right we make reservations at one of our fav restaurants and get dressed and enjoy.  These date nights are often capped by evening strolls.  And lastly, sometimes he'll surprise me and we'll go to the beach or movies just because. I guess we date often!  LOL

    Same here!!! MY FI and I live in separate states for now. So our date nights are once every couple of weekends. We do random things. He lives in North Jersey so when I go there we go and sit by the water over looking the Hudson River, we take the train into the city and go to Times Square and BBQ's and just walk Broadway. Hmmm what else, when he is here in the DC area. We movie it up or go downtown and sample a restaurant or two. I love all of it.

    We try to have a date night once a week but it's hard because my FI is in the Army and he's soooo busy all the time. Our date nights normally consist of either a movie, dinner, or something simple like walking our 2 dogs through the park. Going to the gym isn't really a date night but I try to go to the gym with him a couple times a week so we can spend even more time together because of our crazy schedules!

    DH and I have a date night once a week. Sometimes when we have a very busy week, we skip them but we are trying to keep to once a week especially since we don't have any kids yet. Date nights can be movies, dinner, playing indoor games, attending concerts etc.
