  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Just wondering what other do for fun with their spouse?

My wife and I like to go out to the show (maybe not all that fun but it gives us down time from our daughter).  But since that costs so much money now we don't do it that often anymore.

What about you?

We opt for renting movies. With two kids, by the time we pay a babysitter and then actually go to the show it is too much money. Renting is gerat because you can stay in your pj's and if you hate the movie you can just turn it off and you don't feel too bad. Many nights it seems that we go to bed, but end up talking about things for hours. Those are probably my favorite times with my husband.

My hubby and I enjoy movies. We often rent or buy a new movie and watch it once the girls are in bed for the night. Also, we are both in antique cars and even belong to a club and go to the meets, although this is done with the kids, not just him and I. Occasionally we will get a chance to go out to dinner without the kids, which is a rare treat for us.

We play D&D, and we talk about our various projects; Beloved Spouse is working on the third novel in a series (the first has made it as far as the slush pile at a publisher, and will languish there for, I'd guess, certainly at least 9 months, probably a year or two). We sometimes watch videos.

We play games (although not as often as we used to...long story), play with our daughter, watch movies, and we talk a lot. We have a relationship that allows for us to sit in the same room, she reads and I tool around on the computer and we are happy just being near each other. Neither one of us is real needy or attention hogs.

(Pre-children, we went dancing a lot and spent a lot of time at the beach.)

OracleX,
No Mr.Cheese and I don't have kids yet. Most people do think we still act like newly weds. We'd like to keep it that way.
I love to cuddle!! I guess if we ever have a kid we'll just have to add him/her into some of the cuddle sessions....group cuddle!

and movies....and games....and cuddle....and listen to Jack Karouac...and cuddle....

We record and watch several programs, and watch them on our days off together. ( we both work ) We go out with my wife's folks for lunch or play dominos, We go out for lunch after church a lot, sometimes with friends from choir. When it is warmer we go for walks with the dog.

We will randomly drive to a place we've never been and check it out. Go for lunch, walk around, window shop... I live in a suburban area with several major cities within a few hours drive so there is so much that we have not seen. I can't wait for the weather to warm up so we can check more stuff out!

Yes N2God and I love watching T.V. movies, playing games...we love to talk to each other. I just feel lonley without her around, she is such a vibrant person. She is the type that when she is not around you notice it, because she just lights up a room and brings joy to all! How could you not want to be around that! We have been married 6 years, and everyday is a new day to love her.

We love to camp, just ride around...we always joke about being the old couple out on a sunday drive lol...we also can just lay in bed and talk for hours. Its great having a soul mate!

My wife and I enjoy going out to eat and taking in a movie every once in a while. We enjoy working in the yard during the summer. We have our entire yard landscaped which we have done ourselves. I am going to start teaching my wife to play golf this spring. We enjoy just being alone with each other.  :clap:
