First Date - Dating Tips

Lets get real, a dinner and movie is not a great first date. Let's try something different, something interesting, and something where you can interact and get to know each other better.

We are shooting for conversation and a movie just doesn't cut it. Dinner is fine as long as it is not too ritzy or uppity, because then you are concentrating on the dinner instead of your date. Make your date feel relaxed and comfortable. You don't want the first date to be a marathon, save some energy and intrigue for the next date.

101 Great First Dates

First Date Number 1.

Lunch Date. A really good first date, especially if you don’t know each other, is a lunch date. This is very comfortable for your first date; usually it is best if your date meets you there. They know it will only be an hour and can leave at anytime since they met you there. They will be around other people and they know they will be safe. This first type of date should be at some kind of local café. Avoid the chain restaurants; these are usually packed, have a long wait, and certainly aren’t very interesting. Going to a local café shows ingenuity, adventure, and style. These cafés are usually quieter and you will get a chance to talk and get to know each other. Find one that has a “cool” reputation and offers a variety of food and beverage.

First Date Number 14.

Dinner on the Boardwalk. If you live near a coast, this will be very memorable. Call and get reservations so you can sit near a window overlooking the ocean. Or better yet, if they have an outdoor table, sit outside and enjoy the breeze. Try some calamari or something different for an appetizer. After dinner, take a walk on the boardwalk or a drive on the coast; get some ice cream and sit on a bench and eat it as you listen to the waves crash and watch the sunset.

First Date Number 17.

Crabbing. Crabbing is also a lot of fun and a great first date. If you live near the ocean, you usually don’t need a license. Sometimes you can just catch them as they wash into shore with the waves. When they wash onto the shore, get a stick and let them bite it. Carry them while they are holding onto the stick and put them in a cooler. Go to your house and cook them and enjoy!
