Are dinner and roses too passé? Do you want to make a great impression without coming off too strong? The balance of still coming across as the thoughtful type with a cool plan that hits the spot can be a tricky one. It all depends on what works best for you and, of course, what you think your date might enjoy.
Try one of these first date ideas to ensure you knock it out of the park and end up with a second date.
Brunch Time
One of the most important things to know about someone you’re dating: how they take their coffee and eggs.
Ease the stress of a first date and opt for a fun breakfast date instead of the tense dinner date. After all, who can say no to a stack of pancakes covered in butter and maple syrup?
Wine Tastings, Brewery Tours and Whiskey Tasting
Candy is dandy but liquor is quicker. Learn something new about you and your date's drink of choice at a wine tasting event.
Find shared passion at the bottom of a glass and go home remembering every detail. That exciting feeling of extra-awareness that you get on a first date should only help to enhance your confidence.
Wander the Bookstore
Especially for the bookworms out there, there’s nothing like hitting the stacks to find out if you and your date's interests are compatible.
Even if you’re the type that mostly reads the back of cereal boxes or beauty magazines, you can enjoy some laughs by planning an imaginary vacation in the travel section. It's a great way to introduce yourself to a prospective partner.
Dance
Even if it turns out that you and your date have four left feet between the two of you, find out what kind of physical chemistry you’ve got by trying out a new dance class, such as swing, salsa, or even hip hop. If both of you are a little out of your element, you might not work so hard to impress each other. Instead, with your arms around each other, you can’t help but work a little harder at just being yourselves.
Play Tourist
Do you keep saying that you want to check out that new museum in town? Or maybe you always harboured a secret desire to visit all of those places that only tourists visit?
Most cities have local museums or cultural centers. Many cities these days also advertise fun and unusual walking tours. Explore your home from a different perspective and, with any luck, the tour might also shed some new light on your relationship status!
Movie Night
Don't make your date into an ordinary one.
There’s nothing like a B-list or Grindhouse film to bring out good humour and the best reactions from your date. Play a movie inspired board game and cuddle up over a giant bag of popcorn. What kind of couple would you be if you can’t laugh together?
