Camping Out Ideas
Camping tips?
I and my boyfriend are going camping next weekend and I really want it to be awesome. We have had a difficult period now for few days.. some tension. And I really just want to do something for him, something special in the camping. Make him really enjoy the trip. And please say something else than s*x because I've already got that planed.. (it's not a family camping place hehe, we pretty much are alone there). thx.

- Just enjoy your time together. It's pretty calm and relaxing. Go hiking, if there's a river, creek or pond go swimming.
- I don't know about how you are but the two girls I've dated thought they were doing me a huge favor just by tagging along, while I planned, shopped, packed, drove, set up camp, cooked, planned the day hikes, packed up, drove home, and cleaned all the gear. I would've loved it if my girlfriend had helped plan the trip, packed her own bag, stayed awake in the car and chatted with me instead being "so tired" the entire vacation, helped carry some stuff, helped with the tent (it's always easier with two people), shared meal planning, cooking, etc, helped carry stuff back, helped clean and put away at least her own shoes and dirty clothes, and most important of all at least tried to enjoy it!
- Well, don't limit your lovemaking to the tent. You haven't had a proper rogering until you've hugged a tree while getting smacked from behind while on top of the highest mountain around. And the guy above is right....try and take an active role in planning the trip, meals, hikes, etc. It's a bummer when guys have to drag their girlfriend along.
- tie him to a tree and pour molasses's over him and tell him he will have fun and be good or the bears will get him
- For the most part, just your going and spending time with him will be a blast and half for him. If you really want it to be over the top, then I would suggest checking into some recipes that can be made easily in the woods – things that you don’t normally associate with camping out – and make the meal one of the days you are out. Not knowing your own skill or experience level, the only other bits of advice I would offer would fall into the categories of attitude. Basically have a good time and enjoy yourself. Don’t make the point of the trip him, make it the experience of being outside, and of sharing the things you are going to see with each other. Have fun!
- A lot of camping is the fun of being alone and doing the everyday duties that are just a little more difficult while camping. Cook together, build a fire together, play cards at night, things like that.

- You will both get out of it, what you put into it. Work out the details of where, what, how, menu, supplies, possible activities and then just be nice no blaming for forgetting anything. Oh, and take some massage oil, honey sticks, bandana for a blindfold, glowstick, and hot chocolate. And a finally a camera to look back on the memories you made special, regardless of how the relationship turn out, you can still look back at the fun you had because you made the effort. Say he's into fishing: If there is fishing available, surprise him with a new pole and don't forget to hook him up with the right bait. You'll need to ask around for that info if you don't know it. He's into: knives, get him a another one. He's into gear: get him a new Jetboil backpacker stove and pull it out for him later. Or new headlamp to check you out with in the dark. He's a foodie: bring a special dish that you can fix by yourself. Get some t-shirts made, simple, don't overdo it, whenever you wear it later --think abut the great time you had and make plans to hit the woods again.
- If your boyfriend has any brains, he will be thankful you put so much effort into the trip with him, I WOULD. I really like the toys idea, and the gifts, can't go wrong with that. We all want to be loved, even if just for that trip, so why not have some fun.
