Guys, I've been married for only two years, and I am starting to get bored. Not with DH, but with life. I need some suggestions on what to do for fun. I do not like nightclubs or anything too crude, but I relly need some excitement. I don't want DH to feel he married someone boring and lackluster. ALL IDEAS ARE WELCOME!!!

How is your married life different from the days when you were discovering each other and you were most likely more romantic and enchanted? Do those things. We have 19 years together and we try to date as much as possible, to get out of the house, away from the kids who take up much attention. Movies and dinner are my favorite right now. I'd love to get a nice room for a night, have a romantic dinner and spend an intimate evening without squawking kids, blaring TV's or video games myself. It's so easy to put our romantic life on a back burner because of the busy sameness of everyday life. But that is life so we have to make it feel as special and wonderful as it should be, can be. Smother him in loving attention and make time for intimacy. Okay, smotherinng may be too much but make a happy, invigorated married life a top priority. It's so easy to put it off because life is tiring or boring. Make it exciting. You know this man; you must know what would add spice back in in a way that's great for both of you. And really pretty underwear are a great start. 
I recently bought thong underwear altough I hate them. I got them to go under a pair of workout pants I like which cannot be worn sans unders but look really kooky with the comfy cotton unders I prefer. My husband asked me if I even owned a thong and I told him I'd gotten one and why and he wanted to know why I couldn't just pretend I had gotten them for him. Oops.

I asked my DH once what it was about thongs; I mean, guys have to know how weird they feel! (Before you're used to them.) He said it was that I was willing to wear them...
Anyway, as for the spice idea? Probably can't be of much help there. My husband and I are not spicey people- we're a rent a movie and make popcorn couple, on the rare nights we have together. We used to go out for dinner all the time- that can be fun, going to fancy places. But if you like the idea of a getaway, why can't you enjoy it even if you aren't getting away from anything in particular? Why not just a getaway from your own house and own bed??
I'd say plan a mini-vacation together. Or, go on hikes and pack a fancy picnic for yourselves and see what develops in the great outdoors...
