I’m sure all he needs is a backrub, sex and a bit of cuddling, good dinner and a beer, then some Guitar Hero. Which is good, because I enjoy all of these as well. Our first anniversary (gotta love dating when you can celebrate making it 6mos) is tomorrow and it’s probably what we’re gonna do.
Karaoke at the local dive bar at the Ramada Inn with our buddies ( I sing, he cracks up); splitting a gigantic fried fish sandwich; a pitcher of Diet Coke (rum for me); and sex afterward unless I pass out from all the rum.
Yep, we’re crazy.
go out for beer and wings, then to the movies, then home for sex.
The way 'im indoors carries on, I might just as well be single myself. In fact I probably will be pretty soon.
Video games, then dinner (doesn’t matter what it is as long as it’s cooked, and preferably delivered, by someone else–he’s a professional cook and hates doing it on his own time). I have hopefully folded the pile of clothes in the spare bedroom and done the dishes, but this is not a must. Alcohol is probably involved, but only because he thinks it will alleviate my inhibitions for the, um, festivities that will take place later on. Maybe a movie, then sex, some cuddling, more sex, then out to the front porch for final cigarette (for him) and to look at the view (for both of us). Then we’d get into bed and hold each other and talk until we fell asleep.
Out of curiosity, has anyone here ever asked their SO what they think a “perfect night” would be or is this all just supposition? And have you made it happen?
Lay on the couch with good video on the TV and then off to bed where I keep my damn hands off of her so she can get some sleep!
Mine is similar to hers except there’s Gin involved and them hands see some action.
I actually did ask him yesterday. he said “Oh, a good dinner, some beer, and you. And we can skip the first two.”
I’m really lucky this way. Our perfect nights vary across a pretty broad spectrum as long as it’s just us hanging out together with no money or business problems.
We like to just do stuff together. Whether it’s in Vegas getting drunk together and playing games or walking around and seeing things or staying in and playing WoW together, it doesn’t really matter. 
I’m split on whether to say something caring and serious about how sad this is, that I hope you won’t be single soon, and that you’ll manage to work it out, or say something joking and cold about how if you’d be interested in a rebound relationship, I’ve never even played World of Warcraft.
Out somewhere* arguing (he LOVES to argue) and getting drunk with his friends. He doesn’t like being at home much.
*Where “somewhere” = a bar.
A big italian dinner, several hours of World of Warcraft, and then long bouts of hot sex, followed by iced tea, cuddling, and chatting.
Heck, he’d love it even more if we could combine all of them together!
Good point. Actually, regarding my answer, I know about the “perfect night” for both of us from experience. We are not a particularly romantic pair. Fun, but not romantic. Better to do our dive bar karaoke, get down to business quickly at home and have plenty of time to order pizza afterward! Assuming I’m sober enough to eat. Luckily my boyfriend is pretty tolerant of my alcoholic extravagances.

One of those short and to-the-point answers previously given, which included alcohol and sex, would surely cover it.
In bed by nine followed by eleven hours sleep.
My husband’s idea of the perfect night would involve a nice dinner, Morgan’s spiced rum, me in lingerie, watching his favourite TV shows and movies and some sex.
Luckily, this describes most of our weekends.
Her: A very nice dinner out with a bottle of good, full-bodied red wine at a restaurant with good atmosphere, where she can dress up and show off. (Which at Tokyo prices means you multiply “howbloodymuch?!” by 3 and add a couple of zeroes.) Possibly go out to a club later, with some dancing, more special attention, and a few more drinks. “Home” to a high-rise apartment for candle-lit massage and slow, tender lovemaking.
I know that’s what she likes because that’s what she has told me she likes for special nights out. That’s what we did for this anniversary, which isn’t the first time we’ve gone out with this same basic plan. We weren’t in the mood for a club though. The apartment is a recent addition to the perfect evening, due to her coveting her father’s apartment close to Shinbashi. But the fact that it’s her father’s place proved to be an inhibiting factor, so the final phase didn’t happen. Dammit.
Me: A nice dinner, either cooked at home or out. Gourmet cooking is nice, but I don’t need it, and I’m a decent and usually willing cook. Steak, risotto, with other trimmings and good red wine would be ideal. Hot, wet, nasty sex a couple of times before bed would be the perfect cap on things. Yeah, no surprise that I’m a guy. We’re pretty easy to please, which is why our lists are short and simple.
