Date Ideas

by

coffee date

Are you supposed to plan your next date? Are you stuck for ideas? Check out this post - a list of date ideas.

* go to the zoo or aquarium - bring your camera and take silly pictures with your date and the animals

* see a play, musical, movie, dance performance or concert - but this makes makes it hard to have a conversation so it may not be the greatest if it’s your first date or if you both like to talk

* visit an art gallery - laugh at the fact that you could probably paint like Jackson Pollock if you really wanted

* play board or card games - bring yourself back to your childhood and break out the games, I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like at least one board game!

* go camping - if you’re ready to hang out overnight, head out for a hiking & camping trip. Enjoy the fact that you can’t shower and your date is about to see you at your crunchiest!

* check out mini-golfing - no one has to be good at it, the worse you are, the more fun the game will be!

* play in the rain together - this is really fun … have you ever puddle-jumped in the rain? Played tag in the rain? Just danced around in the rain? Try it out - it makes you feel great!

* go for a drive - gas may be expensive but it would be worth sitting in the car and being able to talk while driving around … get lost, find your way out and have fun with it!

* rent a movie or just watch TV together - if you & your date want something low-key, watch the boob-tube. You can talk during it, mute the commercials, pause for bathroom breaks, and enjoy yourself comfortably.

* go to a playground - talk about fun; make yourself feel 8-years-old again. Play on the slides (get shocked when you land at the bottom), play on the swinging bridge, push your date on the swings (don’t get stuck in the baby-swing though!) and laugh until your stomach hurts.

* find a coffee place - look for a place that is going to be quiet, sit on a couch, read the newspaper together and enjoy a cup of hot (or cold) liquid together!

About Dating Outlook

What's not to like about dating? Plenty. The awkwardness, the drama and starting all over again (and again...) until we find that special someone. However, there are some pretty great things about dating and if nothing else, hopefully you meet some great people along the way. Stick around for some not so humble opinions, reflections and thoughts about the good, the bad and the downright ridiculous woes of dating.
