Minigolf! Paintball! Lazer Tag! Dancing classes (very fun i might add) and umm. hmm. Make sure his likes don't get overlooked, you could say you want to try dance lessons (ballroom or something you haven't done that's fun, but not a stupid techno club where people are all high on EX lol) but then next week you were really looking forward to seeing Ocean's 13! or some other movie you think he really wants to see. If you show exitement with his likes (movies) at the same time you present an alternative then he will be more apt to say yes. And also, he'll be happy to know that you still like going to see movies. Even if you are bored of it, suck it up as long as he's willing to try something else. Boatrides are fun, maybe even fishing if you like that? he might too, he is a guy afterall lol.

Romantic Sex is the best thing for a marriage!
Choose any of the suggestions made by others such as go dancing, the museum, or a picnic. Get dressed up into something sexy, but nice. A reveling summer dress for a picnic, with a big hat would be a hot look on a hot day. Change the outfit depanding on the date, but go heavy on the perfume, and pick out your sexy high heels, pumps or strappy sandals always turn guys on.
If you choose something a bit dressy, like out dancing or the museum, wear stockings and a garter belt, but no panties. For the summer picnic, wear nothing at all under your dress. If he finds you are shaved smooth, he won't keep his hands off you.
Do this for him, and I'm sure he'll turn the TV off and spend all his time with you!
Your friend,
Dr. J.

Let me see dancing, going out to a club, playing a round of golf, go have a picnic, go rent a boat, try out some ATV's, go fishing, consider going to a nice B&B for the weekend and finding a winery to have a tour and maybe a wine tasting, join a gym together, go swimming, go sing some karaoke, take that walk on the beach. I would recommend going to a healing ministries conference in your area my wife and I just went and it helped in many areas of our marriage and personal lives. I think you have to communicate your feelings of him being in front of the TV all the time. I think you need to express to him that you have done many outings that he has enjoyed and it is due time that he joins in some of the outings and activities that you like. You know that communication is key in any relationship so maybe it is time to give him an ultimatum start doing some activities you like or he can start sleeping on the couch.
I know it may sound rough but tell him that you are concerned for his health and physical well-being that you want him around for a long time and miss doing fun stuff with him.
Consider making a calender and on certain days of the week the TV stays off!

You need to take a cruise. Packages aren't super expensive and they are fun and interesting. You will still have a room to go to for privacy when you want it or need it, but the onboard entertainment and/or shore excursions will definately keep you occupied for long periods of time. Also at night, there is nothing better than going up and sitting on the deck, just feeling the air and listening to the sounds of the water. It is so relaxing.

How about the theatre or going to a museum or other types of performance. They are more engaging then TV but still offer your hubby a chance to be passive. Me and my wife love dancing together but that may not be for you guys however if it is you could take dance lessons. Or perhaps different types of classes like art class or something.

How about a nice picnic in the park on a great sunny day?
Make some of his and your favorite foods and snacks.if you have a dog, bring him/her along as well! And if not in the park, how about a beach?Then maybe, later go take a dip in the beach or a pool

Going to the Gym is nice!!! Sometimes they have group classes that are lots of fun.
If you want something romantic, try staying at a nice Hotel for the weekend. Something like a honeymoon. That's nice too. Once in a while.

We love going to baseball games. It is always fun. Bowling is fun too. That way you are indoors but still doing a physical activity. We also just started taking Karate together twice a week.
