Hey anyone:

This 10/9 is W & me's 4th anniversary. We seperated this month. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" /> We're working on getting our relationship back on track, but I don't know what to do about our anniversary. Technically, she'll be out of town on business the actual day of it, so we could celebrate the weekend before or after. Since we're seperated, it's really hard to afford the house, bills, etc all on my own. I know she's in the same boat with her appt costs. So what can I suggest to her that we can do that will be inexpensive, romatic, and show her how much she means to me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well - in my experience - the sweetest gestures are just the ones that show you were willing to go out of your way to show you care.
It could be something as simple as building a massive sand castle of something she loves, going to a field and picking dozens of flowers and decorating a room , setting up a candle lit bath - with an assortment of unique chocolates for her. ( not to get laid- hehhee but for her to enjoy )
Cooking a gourmet meal - something difficult and time consuming to make. You could take a pad - and every day until your anniversary - write one thing about her that makes you remember why you love her and present her with it on your anniversary date.
I'm sure you get the idea - Just make sure whatever you do - it isn't a $3 hallmark card, roses from a gas station, or anything generic - make it heart felt.

Well, not that this sees much traffic, but I found out that a local inn (one of those quaint river-town colonial bed&breakfasts) has a "local's night" on Wed and Thurs with a prix fixe of $15. It's affordable, we've been there before and enjoyed it, and it's only about 6miles from the house. She thinks its a good idea.

Thanks for your help Miss Kitty!
