When you shake up date night, you trigger the release of bonding hormones that bring you closer as a couple. But how do you drag a couch-loving guy off his ass? Here's the plan...
Drop subtle hints
Before officially making your proposition, soften him up to the idea ahead of time by casually mentioning it in a positive way. Say that a friend had a great time at a karaoke bar with her guy last weekend. That way, when you ask a couple of days later, he'll be more likely to go along since you've already planted the seed.
Schmooze him
Compliments make a guy feel appreciated, agreeable, and, mostly, special, which will make him automatically more receptive to your idea. Use these magic phrases: "It would be so hot if you ____" or "I think you'd be so sexy doing ____." Fill in the blanks with the activity you want to try together.
Make it a challenge
Take advantage of his competitive instincts and turn it into a contest he can't resist. If you want to go rafting but your guy is normally the cautious type, bet him he'll be the first one to chicken out-whether that's true or not, he won't be able to say no to the chance to prove himself.
