Date Ideas
EmailFirst date is always important because it’s where you drop your first
impression and most importantly, it plays a big role to determine whether
or not this relationship will work out.

It’s just like choosing what to read. Let’s not talk about the book cover (I
know, I know, Don’t just a book by its cover!) so now we all judge by how
the story begins. No matter how amazing the storyline is, if the introduction
failed to grab readers’ attention, no one is going to read it because no one
likes to get their time wasted. Relationship works this way too.

If you need ideas to secure your first date and your own
impression, You’ve come to the right place! When I first started dating,
my idea of a date was the stereotypical cheap-dinner-and-a-movie. Don’t
hate on me, I didn’t know any better! By the time I finished high school I
was pretty comfortable in my own skin and got pretty good at coming up
with ideas for dates. I’ve put together a list of some of my favorites as well
as some suggested by friends. Enjoy!

Outdoor Adventures
1. Go for a walk – This is such a simple first date idea but most shy
away from it because they feel like they must do something complex
in order for their date to be impressed. Wrong! The only ideas you
need to impress your date with are the ones that you articulate as
your conversation progresses. If you are an interesting person and
have found a fun person to spend time with, rest assured that a walk
about town will be just fine. Remember, the idea is to leave your date
wanting more. As a warning, you may be tempted to start talking
about previous relationships. Don’t. That’s not how to get over an ex.
Rather, enjoying the company of a fun new person without dwelling
on the past will serve you best!
2. Watch an outdoor movie – Going to a movie is pretty worn out in
the world of first date ideas. You can resurrect it in a fun way by going
to see a movie outdoors or, even better, at a drive-in movie theater if
you still happen to have one near where you live.

3. Create your own picnic – Pick a nice spot near where you’re
meeting up and swing by a grocery store or take-out restaurant for
some quick eats before setting up camp for food and conversation
with your new favorite person. There’s no need to spend a lot of
money. Picnics are supposed to be simple and you want it to be about
getting to know your date, not truffles wrapped in gold foil!.
4. Go boating – The idea of sailing on a first date seems like a recipe
for disaster but something milder, like canoeing, row boating, or
taking a paddle boat out on a sunny afternoon would work well.
Admittedly, the last time I took a girl on a paddle boat for a date we
both ended up soaking wet with marsh moss in our hair. It was
amazing though!

5. Go for a run together – If running is your idea of a good time,
an easy run with a new friend can make for a great date!

6. Volunteer at a soup kitchen – One of the best first dates I’ve

ever been on involved meeting up with a woman at 5:30am to serve
breakfast at the local soup kitchen. Not only did we get to know each
other better but we got to do something worthwhile that helped our
community. It’s hard to come up with a reason why giving back to
your community could be considered a bad idea for a first date! If you
don’t have a soup kitchen or other short-order volunteer opportunity,
be creative and come up with your own. There is always somebody
nearby who could use some help if we are willing to give it.

7. Get up insanely early and be the first customers at

your favorite breakfast joint – You’ll get a chance to chat
before the restaurant gets busy and have time to do some people-
watching when the regulars start pouring in. Note: If you find
somebody who is cool with rolling out of bed early to join you for a
breakfast date, it’d be a bad idea to let them get away!
Indoor Sweetness
1. Take an intro yoga or other fitness class – If you’re
really out of shape, this might not be a great idea for a first date.
Otherwise, pick a class that will fit both of your fitness levels and have
some fun! You should know that getting hot and sweaty

2. Visit a psychic – Everybody likes to know the future, well, at least a

prediction of it!

3. Visit a shut-in – This might not seem like it belongs on a list of

first date ideas but if you step away from your preconceptions, I think
you might consider it and even try it out. Visiting people who are
unable to get out and enjoy regular social interactions isn’t just a
worthwhile use of your time. It gives you a chance to learn a bit about
the character of your date. Is he or she willing to spend time with
people who are in need? If your date is unkind it will only be a matter
of time before that unkindness is pointed at you. Seek the good
hearts!

4. Play video games – Playstation, Nintendo, Xbox, it doesn’t

matter. If your date is into video games and you’ve got strong thumbs,
it might be time for a bit of virtual smackdown! Just be careful not to
beat your date too badly at whatever video game you decide to play.
You don’t want your first date ideas to turn into video-game-inspired
revenge ideas.
 5. Take a music lesson together – Have you always wanted to
learn how to play the guitar or some other instrument? Inviting a date
along for a partner lesson at a local music school might be a fun way
to start your lesson and get the much-dreaded first date out of the
way.

6. Go to a used bookstore – It can be a new bookstore if you

insist. It doesn’t matter! If you and your date enjoy reading and
perusing books, hitting up a bookstore on a first date may just end up
being one of the ideas that sets you on a quick course to true love.

7. Go gift shopping – Not for each other, but for somebody else.
Perhaps you need to pick up a gift for your sister or some other
relative and you need some insight into the process? Ask your date to
give you some in-motion advice and perhaps even pick up something
small for each other. Trinkets only. Save the cars and fur coats for
later dates!

Play It Safe Ideas

1. Take a cooking class together – Check your local community
college or continuing education program for listings of cooking
classes you can take if there isn’t a culinary school to be found.
2. Visit a tourist hot spot in your town that neither of you has
been to before – Even if you’ve been living in the same place for
years, there’s a great chance that you’ll have missed at least a few
interesting places in your community. If it turns out that your chosen
spot is a dud, get creative and come up with a few quick ideas to finish
off your date. Most will give you a lot of slack if little things go wrong.
Just keep the conversation interesting and the venue won’t be such a
killer.
3. Attend a local film or music festival – It’s a rare individual who
won’t enjoy a local festival at least a bit. This is a pretty safe bet for
anybody but the most boring of people.
4. Meet up for a drink – This is one of the safest, and therefore one of
the most-used first date ideas. You can make things a bit more
adventurous by visiting a jazz club or finding a bar that will teach you
to make new drinks. Of course, you could always go and grab some
bottled water.
5. Visit a new restaurant – There’s a bit of risk in eating at a new
restaurant because you can’t be sure of the quality but this first date
idea still makes the “safe” list because it’s not hugely risky.

6. Eat in – Do you already have great cooking skills? If so, break ’em
out for an early dinner! You might want to check for possible food
allergies before you start sharing your iron chef skills though.
7. Phone it in – Oh yeah, the date that consists entirely of talking into
a small electronic device. This one is for all you cyber dating pros out
there looking for first date ideas like you planned on doing something
other than talking on your phone.All jokes aside, there are some
benefits to phoning in. Sure, you don’t get to see your date’s face
while you’re talking, but that also means that you don’t have to get
 dressed up or worry about what your face looks like. See? Might not
be a bad idea.
