Go to a museum, or an art gallery. Try to pick a subject that you are interested in and discuss the exhibits. Tell why you like or don't like what you see. Even small towns usually have a local history museum that will explain the history of the area.

Again, identify the aspects of your initial conversation that got things going. Was she particularly interested in one story you told her about your childhood? You might have told her about a favorite eating place of your family or a place that serves the biggest bowl of noodles in town.

Dinner and a movie might seem kind of boring, and you probably don't want to do it too much, but this can make for a great date.if you pick a movie that you'll both enjoy. This can be a safe first date since it will allow you time to talk over dinner but you don't have to worry about what to say during the movie. It's also nice to share things that the two of you can talk about later, such as what you liked, or hated, about the movie.

If you do want to go for good old traditional dating then try putting a new spin on it. A blanket, good food and a sunny day are all you need for a good old picnic! Picnics are better first date ideas because they're daytime events so you don't have to spend hours on a bad date and it's easier to talk with beautiful scenery and the tranquillity it brings. Please be responsible when selecting a picnic area choose places like public parks with reasonable traffic instead of secluded country picnics.

In this day and age it is a no-brainer that the internet will be your first port of call. If you type in 'first date ideas' I am sure you find multiple articles, blogs and internet pages dedicated to the subject. Whilst avoiding the potential for information overload, a quick skim through a few pages would definitely give you an idea that you can take or put your own personal stamp on for your first date.

It's important to think about flexibility. Is there any possibility you may be walking any distance? Is there a chance you'll go to a club and be dancing? Give some thought to your footwear. You don't want to appear to be high maintenance by wearing the wrong shoes and having to make a pit stop at your home for something different. And first dates are definitely not the time to break in a new pair of shoes.

One of the best possible first date ideas is bowling. Since most bowling alleys sell beer, the whole notion of "going out for drinks" can now be replaced by "going out for bowling." Now, there is no doubt your date is pretty horrible at bowling. We've all seen the movies where a girl gets all excited that she knocked down a pin, and since movies never lie, this is your chance to teach her proper form. This involves touching her back, touching her waist, and touching her hand, things that never would have happened if you took her to see the newest horror movie.

Every town has one! That spooky house that everybody thinks its haunted, you know the so called "urban legends". Well take her to that spot and tell its story, if it doesn't have one make it up. But be sure its scary enough to make her grab on to you and feel you are the man who can protect her. Protection is a thing all girls search and if you can show her that you are up the task,she will be yours.
