o-state girl Posted March 1, 2019 #3 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Personalize a Yeti style cup for her to take on the cruise. It's really nice to have a cold drink available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emoorehead Posted March 1, 2019 #4 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Have her get up at 6am to take a propeller tour on one of your sea days. Make sure she brings a towel. But schedule her a nice spa treatment for the same day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MalleyCat Posted March 1, 2019 #9 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Make sure she wears her lifejacket and brings a towel to the Muster Drill. :) 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricew001 Posted March 1, 2019 #10 Share Posted March 1, 2019 We had an appointment in the Dreams Studio. The photographer was amazing. She asked how we met and had us telling stories and laughing. The photos were the best we've ever taken anywhere. Make an appointment with the Studio as soon as you get on the ship and beforehand make her an appointment at the spa for hair and make up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roundrockhorn Posted March 1, 2019 #12 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Ok. I'll wade in to this uptight discussion. No offense meant to anyone that has a different point of view. As a sailor myself, we used to do a few things to "welcome" the new guys on board. First, take her up on deck at sunset. Have her watch for "the green flash." It happens at the exact moment the sun dips below the horizon. It's an optical illusion and is a real thing, but the chances of actually seeing it, are astronomical. Next, another bit of fun we had with the noobs, was sending them somewhere to find 100' of waterline. Perhaps Guest Services might be able to help with that? Finally, have her ask your steward for a bulkhead remover. Explain to her that you can adjust things in the cabin to make it a bit roomier, but it takes a bulkhead remover to do it. Just some old gags, courtesy of The United States Navy. 🙂 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flowers, champagne, choc covered strawberries from Fun Shops. For my 2017 Sister Cruise, my husband had flowers delivered to my room. It was totally unexpected. My sisters were pea green with envy. Their husbands didn't do that for them. I loved it and made me so appreciative. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cafedumonde Posted March 1, 2019 #15 Share Posted March 1, 2019 One good thing about "pranks" in relationships is that it prepares you for kids (if you are planning on having them). Kids do crazy, funny, offbeat things 24 hours a day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I LOVE a good joke, even a good dirty joke with my hubby but if did some of these humiliating pranks, I'd not be very happy especially if I were trapped on a ship with him for a week. But maybe it is just me....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffatsea Posted March 1, 2019 #18 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Nope! Not just you Lucky Star!! Fraternity initiations and initiations in the navy are quite different from how you treat someone in a loving relationship! Making them look foolish is not loving! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was another restaurant next door, we would send them over to borrow the chicken stretcher. And of course, there was my personal favorite.......rotating the ice. Pranks are not ALWAYS cruel or bad-intentioned. It depends on the relationship. Some people like that kind of thing. In my family, we regularly have prank wars and we love it. Dippy Dawg, I hope you have a fantastic cruise!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cafedumonde Posted March 1, 2019 #20 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I definitely think it depends on people's personalities and relationships. Dh and I have been joking around for more than 20 years now and it is the same as when we first met. He is a walking comedy show and life with him is a blast. When I was younger, I was always attracted to the guys who would joke around with me, and the couple of guys I dated who wrote me sappy love letters bored me to tears. Lol. I think sometimes growing up in a large family makes you enjoy pranking or joking around, but the bottom line is that people with similar interests naturally gravitate towards each other which is a good thing. I am sure the OP didn't expect to get so much philosophy with his question! Sorry. Wish I had a good cruise prank for you but I can't think of one right now! (Although if I ask dh I am sure he could come up with some right away.) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweety51901 Posted March 1, 2019 #22 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I second the Yeti cup (or some type of metal cup). I took one on my last cruise and LOVED having it with me. It was so great to have cold water all day long. I even filled it up before heading off the ship and walked around drinking the nice cold water. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare puppycanducruise Posted March 1, 2019 #23 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I won't venture an opinion as to pranking your girlfriend. But, wouldn't you rather share a cabin with someone who is pleased with your kindness and wants to thank you, than with someone who is busy thinking up a way to prank you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
