Earlier this week while I was on-air, I talked about a recent survey that was done.  Maybe it’s because I’m a guy and we think about sex a lot, but this one stuck with me.  According to a recent study, sex gets better with age!  So, instead of not looking forward to aging, getting older Could mean a better and more frequent sex life!

A survey conducted by OnePoll on behalf of LELO looked at how the sex habits of 2,000 people aged 50 and older changed.  Here’s what they found- more than three-quarters of those surveyed noticed significant changes to their sex life now compared to when they were younger (77%). 45% said they’ve had the best sex of their lives as they’ve aged.

You read that right. The best ever!  So, if you’re still under 50……you might have that to look forward to.  Which isn’t a bad thing at all!

One point I found interesting was this –  While most responded by saying they do it less now than when they were younger, there were exceptions.  Some said they still “get intimate with their partner” 5 times a week!  5 times?   Not to give you too much info on my personal life, but with jobs, kids, and hectic social lives, I don’t know if I remember the last 5-time week I saw.

Sure, there are some over age 50 who say that it’s hard to find the time.  Things get in the way like work, family, and other obligations, but let’s focus on the positive. I’m taking the first part of this survey and dwelling on it.  Maybe when I’m retired and the kids are out of the house and all I’ve done is spent the day listening to WDHA, I have something awesome to look forward to.  And that my friends are the best sex of my life.

Turns out that getting a little older might not be so bad at all!

Most Romantic (and Affordable) Date Spots in America

Who says romance has to be expensive? Sure, a fancy, expensive night out is one way to celebrate love and romance. But, it doesn’t have to be about the big dollars. As the saying and song go, “Can’t buy me love.” In that spirit, let’s look into some of the most romantic, and affordable, date spots in America. Sparks can totally fly here. Trust me.

Before we get to those date locations, here are some tips on affordable dates. If it’s a first date and you really have no idea if you two are going to hit it off, you don’t have to do the traditional dinner. Why spend the time and money if the date might not even create a spark? Instead, try meeting for coffee or drinks at the bar. That way, if you two aren’t feeling each other, you won’t have to stick through salad, dinner and dessert. You can have a drink and cut your losses. If you two are feeling a vibe, you can schedule a second date that’s a full dinner, which will allow for more time to get to know each other.

Fast-forward to when you’re further into a relationship. If you’re going out to dinner and to the bar a lot with your new love, that’s great, but it can get costly. There’s nothing wrong with Netflix and chill for a date night. You can still make it special. For example, invite your sweetie over and order their favorite takeout dish. How romantic, right? Oh, and get some gourmet, flavored popcorn, if you know what kind of treats they like. That’s not only romantic but very thoughtful.

Now that we’ve gone through some casual date ideas that won’t break the bank, let’s get into the most romantic, and affordable, date spots in America.

  • MSU Horticulture Gardens in East Lansing, Michigan

    I graduated from Michigan State University, so I’m familiar with our beautiful gardens. In the spring, summer and fall, the MSU Horticulture Gardens are an area of wonder. You can go in the winter, too, but things are much more abloom in the other seasons. It’s a very beautiful and romantic setting, and it’s a perfect romantic date spot. It’s also free to visit. Yes, this is a photo of me at the MSU Gardens. I love it there!

    For nearly 60 years, the Las Vegas Art Museum (LVAM) has remained dedicated to bringing fine art to Las Vegas. And despite several relocations before finding its current home in the Sahara West Library/Fine Art Museum in 1997, Nevada's first fine art museum has certainly succeeded.

Mike is all about having fun each afternoon. He brings you concert tickets, some fun trivia, and of course the best bands. Other interests outside of being at WDHA are drums, movies, and my family. Also, like most radio personalities, he loves live music. There's nothing like a live show to hype him up! His all-time favorite band is Metallica. But according to him, the list of others is pretty lengthy.
