Ideas for an exciting date.

Post Reply New Topic

I have no problem getting a date or talking to girls. I"m not shy and generally understand how to flirt. But, heres one problem I keep running into. What are some good ideas on something fun to do with the person. I want to do something fun and not to cheesy like movie and dinner.

I'm searching this, but I"m curious what type of dates you guys like, and what you recommend would be fun to do with my SO.

One commonly quoted 'uncommon' date idea is ice-skating (or dry-rink skating). People generally do not like cinema or club, since they can't talk, but often a live band goes down well.

Indoor rock climbing.
Café + comic book shop or bookstore.
Comedy club.
Crash some kid's piano recital, spike the punch with a gallon of some energy drink, then sit back and watch the kids bounce off the walls.
College music concert or art showing.
Video arcade.
Have a one-day limonade stand on the side of the road. If people say you are too old, tell them you are children who suffer from reverse dwarfism, and you're selling limonade to raise money and awareness for it.
Try to go trick-or-treating on some day other than Halloween. If people don't have candy, ask for sandwiches or canned chili. If they say you are too old, tell them that is part of your costume.

It really depends on what the two of you are interested in.

Things I like: outdoors. A long walk in a very quite place sorrounded by nature, a long walk in the beach, a picnic in a very nice park, a visit to the aquarium, birds watching, trail walking looking for wild animals, a butterflies exhibit, riding bikes, boating.

The zoo? Or, if you're cheap, an animal sanctuary?

Go to the police. Confess to a crime you didn't commit (do NOT mention the ones you did). Whoever gives in and admits it's just a joke first has to buy dinner at the others' restaurant of choice.

Go on a hike, but then...cross a railroad bridge! Preferably without a train coming. Add the train for more excitement/possible death. A railroad bridge will scare the hell out of her, the planks are like a foot or so apart, easily wide enough for you to fall between. They're also pretty high, too, usually about 100 feet.

You said exciting, right? I think this will have you covered.

Arcade works for me, I've done that one with success.
Bungee jumping, unless it's too exciting
Stand up comedy is fun.
Wall climbing, already mentioned as well.

Anything that allows you to have time to speak to each other verbally, learn the other's gestures, have plenty of time of interacting with each other. You are after all trying to get to know this person and vice versa. You obviously want to see if it is worth it to take the person onto another date surely
