I think we are a nice mixture of both. We like the occasional outing but enjoy home time too. We really like having people over for dinner and stuff like that. We host a lot because you kind of get the best of both worlds and I dont like that in Oklahoma you can still smoke in bars so thats a big killer for me on going out.
he was hyper-active when we met am a homebody.my work has me off different days and such .he works from home so if am home and he has nothing to do out he stays.even at nites.am a home body.i've domesticated him.lol
We are homebodies! While we enjoy the occasional night out in DC or dinner & a movie, we prefer to chill in the house...with some drinks, watching a movie, playing some video games/poker or sitting next to each other on the couch each with our laptops on our laps.
We go up and down. Winters in Seattle have us in most nights, ordering in and slaves to Netflix and our numerous space heaters. We thaw out in March and start to do more stuff and this continues until late fall. My Monday-thursdays are pretty hectic though and all I ever WANT to do is come home and sleep but FI makes sure I resist that urge so we fully live our lives (I have a thing about making the most of our time).
my fiance and I really like being able to spend our evenings together relaxing, many days I work 8-10 hours and I don't want to be going anywhere. He likes going out on occasion with friends, but we certainly don't do it often. yeah we really value just spending quiet time together.
We're always out and about during the day, and mainly homebodies at night. It just sort of depends on the mood we're in!! A relaxing night in is always welcome :]
We're not huge drinkers so we've never gone to a bar/club. If we don't go out it's out to dinner with friends or just us and then if we're feeling REALLY adventerous we'll go to a movie but I usually end up falling asleep either in the movie or on the way home. During the day we're more active and like being outside either working in the yard or riding 4 wheelers down at the river (yup, we're Kansas rednecks!) or at the farm. We have a really random schedule because of FI's work where he's on call 24/7 and we never know when he's gonna work.
were a bit of a mixture.. during the week, unless its a scheduled appointment or having people round for dinner we dont go out.. FH gets up really early in the mornng for work so its never a late night. On the weekends tho we like to head out and just get away from the house. Movies, dinner, out with friends, pub, club, concert... shopping, whatever. We dont do as much now as we are on a stict budget and now paying deposits for things for the wedding, but we def make an effort to get out.
We've both never been bar and club people. I'd say we're homebodies. We like to go out, see friends, cookout, etc...but the overall status would be chilling at home.
I say we are homebodies during the day and at night! We are not into the bar scene. We might catch a movie and have a dinner date every once in a while, but our 'dates' consist of dinner at home (or take out) and netflicks... I love it!
I'm more of a homebody and he likes to be out and about. We end up balancing each other out, and it works really well.
Yay for homebodies! We are total homebodies! Perfect night would be some pizza, drinks and our netflix/dvr. With all the wedding planning, trying to find couple time plus a 60-hour a week job, it's so tough to find time for anything. That's also why I treasure the nights my fiance and I can just hang out without all the other craziness that goes on.
I think in our minds we are definitely the out and about couple...but everyone calls us homebodies! we go out when we want, and we stay home when we want...I definitely think it's a mix between the two.
We've become homebodies lately, which is fine, b/c Ive always been one, even when I was single...but we talked last night and decided its time to reignite our spark...so we'll be heading out a little more often for a little while :)
My fiance like to go out, espeically at night, or he gets antsy. I am a homebody, when given the option, I almost always choose to stay in. We compromise by generally staying in on Friday night and going out on Saturday night. We almost always go out with the same group of couples, so even homebody me is happy to be out with my best friends.
@stargal34, we definately are the same as you. we like to go outdoors during the day but at night we are homebodys. we too arent into the bar scene. I get the same comments from people, as we are 22-26.
We like to do a bit of everything. We're 21 and love to go dancing or get a few drinks at a dive bar, but we also like to stay in and stream movies off Netflix or play video games. We also like to do outdoorsy stuff like hike or swim in lake and rivers, and we also like to just wander around the city and shop/people-watch/whatever. We aren't too hard to please, we just don't like monotony. Unfortunately while we're in class the semester is pretty monotonous for us because we do end up spending most of our time inside doing homework, just because we have to or we'd fall behind. Damn this school and its ridiculous workload. Youth is passing me by...
We are a combination. We love to stay at home and just cuddle and watch TV. But we are also major foodies, and love to get out and try new places, and eat regulary at all our favorite places.
Neither of us drink alcohol frequently (he doesn't AT ALL, and I drink on occasion, very lightly) so this makes us have to get a little creative with the nightlife. We love to go to Dave and Busters, play poker, or play sports late night at the Club.
Right now I am recovering from Oral Surgery, so I am an all-star homebody who can't drive, and it's making me go nuts!
@Stargal34, we are exactly the same as you and your guy. Although he is older (36) and I'm only 24, we RARELY go out and about. The only thing we like to do is eat out. We love going out to dinner, but other than that, our perfect night is snugling on the couch watching our DVR'ed TV shows! Now THATS what I call a good night! :)
For the most part, we're homebodies. I would say both of us would agree that one of our favorite date nights is cooking dinner together, then curling up on the couch for a movie.
But, we also both LOVE to go out on dates (we really love going out to eat!) and we love having friends over. I also think that we'll probably go out to bars more once FI turns 21 - right now he gets frustrated because he's a few months away from 21 and cover charges are ridiculous for males under 21!
I kinda miss our old life, when we would go clubbing and out to dinner a lot. We are major homebodies now, mainly due to our budget. When we first started dating we didn't have an real bills, so most of our money was play money. In hind sight, I wish we would have saved more of that money cuz I bet we could have put a 20% down payment on our house if we did!! We will usually have some friends over to hang out and play games and drink some beer, cuz the whole bar/club scene is filled with too much drama these days (guys always hitting on me, and acting all tough so hubs wants to get into a fight - so not worth it!!)
We're homebodies. I mean SERIOUS homebodies. Sometimes our friends will text and want us to come out to bars, and we just ignore the texts outright and go back to watching re-runs of Always Sunny. Haha. I wouldn't have it any other way!
During the week, we are homebodies but come Friday and the weekend, we are hardly ever home! We like to be with our family and friends.
The only times we ever go out during the week are for family birthday dinners. We go to bed by like 9pm. We're both up at 5am, and I don't know how people stay up late and still get up without feeling like crap. I need my sleep!
During the weekend, though we like to hang out with friends and family, although lately we've been much more homebody-ish with the economy. We'd rather have everyone over, though, than go out to eat.
We are not bar/club people, though, so we never go out (at least in our own town) in that sense. I hate seeing people I know from high school.
So I guess that makes us pretty big homebodies!
We're homebody readers with a random wild streak that we occassionally indulge with a night of partying and drinking with my rugby buddies, random trips to other states, or doing a night of comedy in chicago.
but mostly, we like to hang out, snuggle, and read together
Over the past almost 7 years we have changed a lot! For the first 3 years we were out most nights. Then next couple, out about half the time. The past 2 years we only go out a couple of nights a week. We figure that we are just settling down and figure it is getting time to start the family since we don't mind staying home anymore.
I've always been the bigger homebody and he always wanted to be out. Right now we are both home a lot looking for jobs, so I am the one who just has to get out of the house now!
total homebodies. our parents joking ask us what we are going to do when we are 80 since we act like we 80 now!...but it works for us
Hm, what an interesting post. I think we're a mix. We looove nights in on Netflix with some frosty mugs and awesome beers. That's how you get through a winter in Iowa. Now that the sun's come out, I don't have the urge to drink as much. We've been taking our dogs to our local dog park like every day, getting some vitamin D and taking walks. We cook, but can't resist the local Thai place. Being poor, we can't afford to go there, but damn it, it's the best food I've ever eaten.
I think a lot of my decisions are made by my budget. Usually we make a compromise. If we're going out for drinks, we'll cook a cheap dinner. If we want an awesome dinner, it means a night in with friends or netflix.
I love going out and alternating between some fun young downtown places or an awesome neighborhood bar. Neighborhood bars are wonderful because they seem so genuine and down to earther, and have cheaper drinks :) I think my Fi's a bit more of a homebody than me. I could go our 2-3 times a week if I had the money :) I also have a thing where I think I'm 23 and I need to do that now and be more of a homebody when I have children.
And hooray for nights in with friends. They are awesome and cheap. Basically hanging out with the same people you'd arrange to meet in bars, but instead of paying $6 for one Guinness, I can pay 7$ for six :) And not so loud so you can't actually have good conversations.
-bree72. I agree! It's so awkward running into people from high school. I never know what to say. Especially if it doesn't seem like things are going so well for them. Christmas/easter break downtown is like a reunion.
Gah, I'm glad I'm not alone in the hating to avoid running into people from high school thing. I NEVER go out when I'm home and that's a large part of the reason why--it's almost certain that I'll run into people I'd rather not! Going out in the city is so safe, I barely ever see anyone I know unless I came with them, ha. It blows my mind how frequently FI runs into people he went to school with (only 130 in his graduating class!) in Manhattan though!
we are definitely homebodies (now). ;)
when we first met, i was newly single, and VERY into the post-college/after-work going out scene. FI was there a LOT, little did i know he was totally just there to spend time with me! :P
over the last few years, i've definitely been partied out. and i honestly wouldnt have it any other way.
we still go out occasionally for special events, sporting events, friends' bdays, wknd trips to chicago, etc. but 99% on a fri/sat night, u bet we're at home watching a movie, or sippin cocktails watching tv outside in our HOTTUB! ;)
like the OP, we are much more active during the day on the weekends and like to chill at night instead of going to crowded/smelly/dirty bars... :)
We are very selfish with our alone time and do not like to share it with anyone else. We rent movies all the time and just chill on the sofa drinking my red wine while he anytime requested, massages my feet for me, I love him so much and love how good he massages them!!!! We also have a 16 mnth old daughter that takes up alot of our energy so we all spend QT together

Sorry, there are no users yet.
So what kind of couple are you and your SO? are you more of the homebodys or out and about couple. Personally, me and FH like to go out during the day and do stuff a lot but we are such homebodys at night- we just like to stay in and chill with each other....alot of people think thats weird becuase were young- 22. but were just not really into the whole bar scene- i mean its fun everyonce in a while. snuggling with him, pizza, wine at night sounds like the perfect night for me.
