First date ideas for teens?

^ noodles are a "cute" food to eat on a date...somehow.

or "konpa".

This is a two-person game, but many can participate at one time. All that is required is one box of Pocky, a long biscuit with chocolate on one end. Two people begin eating one Pocky from each end. The first person whose mouth comes off the Pocky or the other player gets to the middle first loses. If the participants end up kissing, it is a tie. This game is particularly popular at gōkon.

it was a tie intentionally.

I recently began dating my best friend of three years. Our first date, she and I went to watch Zootopia and then went for Frozen Yogurt. The second date, we made a fort in her living room and watched Disney movies. Next Thursday, we are going to the local Spring fair, and the day after, we are going to prom with some of our friends. Also, you could try going to your local farmer's market(if you have one), or even just go to the park for a few hours and ride the swings while eating Popsicles.

Here's every date I've ever been on, in what order they took place:

Girl 1:

- Coffee at Mcdonald's.

- Coffee at Mcdonald's

- Movie and drinks at the nearby Mcdonald's after.

Girl 2:

- Slept at her house and in her bed with her for the night (we were dating at school before-hand, but yeah, it was still pretty fast).

Girl 3:

- Bowling, and then playing in the arcade at the bowling alley, then eating.

- Dinner out with her family.

- Her visiting my house for the day.

- Roller skating at the roller skating rink.

The planned but cancelled fifth date was going to be her going with me and my family to see local Christmas lights in the major hotspots that have great christmas lights every year (this was Nov./Dec. last year).

Wow. I nearly forgot how many actual dates I've been on and typing this out reminded me I've been on 8. Weird.

You're going to the prom? Wow, you're doing better than most guys on here. Good job! I didn't go to my prom, obviously, so the year after, I was determined to prove to myself I could get a date. Only it didn't work out as I expected. Read on.

My first date ever, at age 18, was one of the most awkward experiences of my life. Mostly because I, literally, had no idea how to act on a date, and relied entirely on TV sitcoms and second-hand accounts for guidance. We went to a touristy river promenade, by city bus, no less. We spent most of the time walking along the river, without me even knowing when to hold her hand and such. I kept commenting how romantic the night sky and the city lights look. Then we ate, with her asking me about my family and such, and me giving "good" answers. After the bus ride back, we parted ways with an awkward hug, where I lingered for too long (mostly out of touch starvation).

Lesson learned? While we all start somewhere, don't get a date just to prove a point. It'll backfire on you. Then again, when you're starting late, your first dating experience is probably going to be very awkward no matter what you do. It certainly won't be like those "awkward in a cute way" ice cream dates, that NT teens have at age 12 or so.

the first time i want to """date"""'s house was by city bus. it has its pros...you can spend more time and concentration talking to her instead of focusing on not trying to crash or running over any morons that jaywalk...teens get anxious about driving, i think. i know i did.

but there are weirdos on the bus and you can't play your tunes...it's not just you two.

when on the bus she told me that very few people had been to her house, only her most recent ex boyfriend had for about, 30 minutes. i felt really close. i was recently 15, it was the day of her 16th birthday. (and this summer she will be 20).

all of them were super awkward but i guess she thought it was cute.
