Date: an arranged meeting between one male and one female for the purposes of spending time together, getting more familiar with each other, and determining whether there is enough sexual attraction and romantic feelings to justify declaring mutual monogamous intentions.
Yes, it's a date.
Yes, it is.
A "real" date can be anywhere as there is no criteria for where it should be.
As long as it is among those who are intimate with each other and not platonic friends then it is a real date.
Of course both need to know they are going on a date
If two people who like each other, or are getting to know each other in a potentially romantic way, choose to spend time walking together in a park—- yes. It’s a date.
It some it can be. I think it’s cute for a couple that’s been together for a while. But if I were dating someone new, going to the park isn’t it. I’m not 9.
But they have nice spacious benches and bushes to hide sexual behavior. Plus you can finance your date by rolling a couple of old coots for their spare change.
@Daniela1982 ?
@Giselleselfish I'm just telling you why a park is not a bad place for a date.
@Daniela1982 Not me but the other person

It's a great way to start or finish a date...
Yep for sure!!!
It can be. Depends on where the relationship is at. I wouldn't suggest it for a first date. Although it could end up happening by accident if you parked your car far from the date venue.
For that matter, how about sitting on a park bench watching the parking meters expire, LOL!
Were you committed to spending time EXCLUSIVELY in one another's company?
Exploring One another's common interests?
Achieving a level of comfortable familiarity... then, 'Yes' it was a 'Date'!
Some might call that a hang out.
Some feel its a 'date' only if you spend money...
the quantity of money you spend can be replaced.
Those moments of the time of your LIFE you invest...
are most 'precious' and can NEVER be replaced.
The time you 'invest' in each other, are YOUR'S exclusively and forever~ ;)
A date is really just hanging out, doesn't really matter where or what you do. Successful dates are the ones where you have fun, this can be an activity or convo or like gordon likes to say "some good f***ing food". So yeah, walking in a park is a date but it really depends on if the person you're with likes doing that otherwise they may not enjoy themselves.
Not really. I mean it's a good first meet but I would use the walk to set up a proper first date with someone. A walk in the park is way better then a coffee date. Both are the same as they are for getting to know someone better out of the gate.
Yeah exactly. Great way to kick it off and schedule a real first date at the end.
For me it’s not a date but it does depend on the type of park it is because I know some have lots of people and like nice stuff to do but at the same time if it’s just a regular kids park with some walking area or something for me it’s a no
I think it could be as long as you have dinner before or after the walk. I've done that with my wife many times
I tend to agree.
It can be. Certainly. I particularly like to take girls to arboretums or botanical gardens. Very romantic. Even better if you take a blanket and small picnic with quality snacks and wine. 😊
It is up to the two, to decide what they think is a "date". But why does that need to be "DEFINED"? Why can't two people that care about each other, maybe love each other, just be together, and it is JUST THAT: being together, because they like each other?
Why does it need a "Label" and be called a "Date"?
Yeah it would be a date, not my favourite, but a date.
For me no. I'd say that's just a meet up and a walk.
Any mutual activity with romantic intent is a date. Everything else is just semantics.
Yes, especially if there are ducks to feed or if you're walking dogs!
Nature walk, cemetery walk, moonlit walk,& there's hiking to ✌️
Too**
Anything is a date if you both know there's romantic interest.
It could be considered one just like a hike or a bike ride.
Technically yes, but only if you buy her an ice cream cone.
Yes. The question isn't where, when and how but who.
if we get to talk, and get to know more about one another and that leads to yet another encounter... I consider that a step forward in the right direction, categorizing it as a date that counts or not as a "date" would not be my concern.
It is a casual date, and it is a good way to get to know your date, although if I was doing it, I would pack a picnic to go along with it to heighten up the romantic aspect of it.
