For those without a husband/bf/partner.....

**metta** · November 22nd, 2009, 06:00 AM

What would you be doing if you had one....other than stating the obvious?

I would go with him to the Carole King and James Taylor concert at the Hollywood Bowl next year.

**hotdog1846** · November 22nd, 2009, 06:04 AM

I would prepare a fabulous Thanksgiving dinner with him at our house for our families.

Then I'd give him a massage and aspirin for his tremendous headache after listening to our relatives argue all afternoon over whose fault it is that we're queer.

Thynight · November 22nd, 2009, 06:30 AM

That would depend on what he likes.

CoolguyAT · November 22nd, 2009, 06:52 AM

Cooking a nice dinner, cuddling by the fire (Yes it is cold enough in Houston right now to do that) and listening to some good music to slow dance to, then getting up and dancing to it......my idea of a romantic evening.

bigwhiskers65 · November 22nd, 2009, 07:14 AM

spending thanksgiving with him and friends and then
out for some 2 stepping on the weekend

GL · November 22nd, 2009, 07:19 AM

Molotov Spark · November 22nd, 2009, 08:10 AM

mydrew1 · November 22nd, 2009, 08:34 AM

Watch a movie together I guess, on a couch in eachother's arms

November 22nd, 2009, 09:51 AM

Anything. I'd be a lot let miserable I am at this current moment about it. So. anything at all with him.

Sorry there had to be one emo response, figured I could take the bullet for y'all.

**geloge** · November 22nd, 2009, 10:28 AM

We would spend some time drinking beers in the town.

hotb0d · November 22nd, 2009, 10:40 AM

I would ask him to play wii tennis with me and every time I win a point, I would slap him in the ass and say, "it's okay. I will let you slap me back later" *stick my tongue out* He would then say, "Oh you bet your ass I will" *kiss me on the lips*

November 22nd, 2009, 10:51 AM

I would like to be in front of Disneyland's winter castle sitting close together as the "snow" falls and white christmas is played in the background.

November 22nd, 2009, 11:05 AM

....I would ignore him and go on JUB.

Then i'd think of a random activity that requires two people or more which i'd like to do but can't by myself, like leapfrog, or monopoly, or sychronised dancing, or cherades, or act out classic television scenes. These activities will distract us from communicating our emotions to each other which scares the shit out of me!

**VICTORIADON** · November 22nd, 2009, 11:14 AM

This time of night, hopefully being in bed with him, fighting for space with my dog.

When all is said and done, we'll get dressed up for when the guests arrive. We'll be having a dappy indoor picnic followed by some World of Darkness roleplaying (tabletop not LARP). Dinner would be the domain of one of the guests since we're a household which believes in baking, not cooking.

After the guests leave and all is cleaned up, we'd settle into the couch for a movie. Something like Howl's Moving Castle or Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.

Yep. That would be our Saturday.

hungrybrownbear · November 22nd, 2009, 11:28 AM

I would cuddle him till the end of time. And the we could watch a movie together or something fun!

**luminum** · November 22nd, 2009, 11:39 AM

I'd get a bigger bed and look for a job in earnest in NC for next year.

I dunno, I think chilling on a couch together would be nice, reading with the TV on in the background...

Decorate a Christmas tree...

Elwood · November 22nd, 2009, 03:56 PM

Well not so much as I would be doing but I would like someone to cook for me for a change. I am a pretty decent cook and I am always cooking for my friends and my kids, it would be nice for a change to come home to a nice meal that someone prepared for me.

And now to the obvious sex sex and more sex. It would be nice to have someone long term to really explore and get comfortable with.

November 22nd, 2009, 03:58 PM

I'd still be in bed.

Slips01 · November 22nd, 2009, 04:15 PM

spending thanksgiving with him and then looking at movie

That sounds Perfect (cept the RP, i'm crap at RP lol)

That is exactly what i thought every night was gonna be like with me and my partner, and it was, till he started nightshift lol.

Excellent vision of perfect bliss

PabloZed · November 22nd, 2009, 04:42 PM

Ironically, I can answer this question with a dream. Just before I woke up I was dreaming that I was with my ex. We were in bed talking and playing cards. I look at him, then I look down and say, "I am sure you will say no but what I want right now is a long kiss." We then start kissing and I wake up.

Its quite amazing how the mind works because he was there, I could feel and smell him. And it was appropriate to wake up during the kiss because our kisses were problematic. We just weren't a match.

G-Lexington · November 22nd, 2009, 04:52 PM

Maybe it would depend on what HE liked?

cgymike · November 22nd, 2009, 07:06 PM

Well - I would be spending a lot less time on here and on the net in general since I wouldn't be on manhunt etc....well it depends how the relationship was going. But in the past I know there wasn't much time for solitary activities.
Might be spending more time cleaning house tho cause you do more of that when you are living with someone...
Other than that and other than the obvious I would still do some of the same activities I do now such as working out, going on bike rides, playing golf etc. But some of them would be done with my partner if he was into that.

phoenix99 · November 22nd, 2009, 07:33 PM

He would be comforting me about my UofA losing last night but we would be watching TV on the couch, as the Cards destroyed the Rams.

USEDCAR · November 22nd, 2009, 07:39 PM

He would be nursing me since i have a cold

**Swellegant** · November 22nd, 2009, 07:56 PM

I expect we'd be doing what I'm doing right now, I'm working on my novel and checking in with you-all, he'd be doing whatever it is he does on the other computer. And there would be a silent game going on in my head to see who has to get up first and go get more coffee, me or him.

The main difference is that I wouldn't have been masturbating alone a few minutes ago. I would have had an audience.

G-Lexington · November 22nd, 2009, 08:03 PM

yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy65pppppppppppppp

...sorry, apparently my cat wanted to JUB.

Swell, I think, has the right idea. Although he more likely than not would've had a helper rather than an audience.

**luminum** · November 22nd, 2009, 10:48 PM

I wasn't aware there was a correct answer.

**Puff** · November 22nd, 2009, 11:50 PM

I wouldn't be crying everyday, that's for sure.

Holden76 · November 23rd, 2009, 12:02 AM

I know that we would have went food shopping today for Thanksgiving.We would have been planning on who would be coming to dinner,who would be staying over,etc. Instead, I went alone,and trying not to hit an all low because my sister has two men sniffing after her,and for the 10th yr in a row, I am alone for the holidays.
I can only wish I was in a relationship with a guy who would love me back.

You remind me of an incident from my youth when I had a job as a dishwasher at a restaurant. The other guy, with seniority, had me do the icky, gunked pots. When quitting time came he was amazed I got them fully cleaned so fast. I couldn't very well reply: "Well, yeah ... I wanted to be finished by the time you were, so I could see you change out of your work pants!"

**kevbo** · November 23rd, 2009, 12:23 AM

We'd be talking about children...

November 23rd, 2009, 12:24 AM

We'd be making plans to go out to a very nice restaurant for an excellent dinner and then off to a play, or the opera, or the symphony, or a movie and then out again later for a few quiet drinks at a place with a nice view of the city.

Either that or he'd watch me play Fable 2 until the sun comes up.

Thynight · November 23rd, 2009, 12:38 AM

Its funny to me that most of you seem to think he would want to be doing the same as you. I guess you are thinking you have not moved on to the bonding stage.

I guess it could be due to the holiday season,and seeing couples together, you would wish that you would want your BF/DP closer . I know I would,and I also know that later on,we would drift and would need room for our own intrests.I would hope that when the lights are turned off,that he would be next to me,holding my hand as we drift off to sleep.

Sounds hokey?

Well of course he would, or we wouldn't be together in the first place if we didn't share some common interests.

It doesn't sound hokey at all. I want and crave the same. Its just with all of the romanticism going on its like everyone is basically saying what they want and not their partners. Maybe I am too romantic. Maybe I am too submissive.

Yes, but you guys are answering as if he would want to be doing that at the exact same time as you. There is a difference between liking the same things and wanting to do them always at the same time.

I'm excercising my imagination and assuming we're past the initial dating stage and into serious relationship stage. This means we know what the other likes and doesn't like. Hey, it's MY fantasy afterall.

I was married for ten years... I know what compromise is all about.
