What are some good date ideas for a couple who are both introverts?

[Anonymous]

My boyfriend and I are seeing a movie next week but I can't think of any other date ideas to do later...

[Anon621]

I haven't been on a date in a while but here goes a try:
1) virtual gaming session with communication during the game (I've done this before while I was texting my date as we did different activities in the game and I had a good time)
2) hiking/walking (you can easily do non verbal PDA if you want such as hand holding or you can just enjoy the walk with your date)
3) art session (this idea is pretty cool because you could do many different things such as asking your date to teach you how to sew or you could do pottery together or make a painting together and you can even do virtual art sessions like draw with your friends. Insert unlimited creative ideas here)
4) stoner session (if you and your date both like smoking. Same thing can be done if you enjoy drinking and you can do these virtually as well if you want but it probably won't have the same affect though)
5) music session (most people like music right? This could be a specified version of an art session but basically you and your date can make songs together where you write lyrics to a song beat and then you can perform the song together. This one is cool because you can do this virtually or you could sing a song you know where one person sings a verse and the other person sings the next verse and so on. But check this out, if your trash at singing you can just make instrumental music and enjoy that together instead)

A walk in a forest at night (or generally in dark) is always a great idea. If you know for sure there are no wolves or bears, it's a fantastic way to be passionate about every moment you are in there.

You begin to notice every small detail, the black branches, the cracking of the tiniest leaf beneath your feet, every living creature around you, the sky and the moon... There are two outlooks upon my city (one right next to a castle wall) that we used to visit during such walks - the view was more than a million words or kisses, truly.

However, this depends on taste of you both, you must embrace it and be very sensitive to fully enjoy it.

All of my ideas might not be appropriate for you because you're under 18 but they're from personal experience. I'm an introvert too and dating is kind of difficult for me as well.

1. Hiking: You're in nature, where there's usually very little people. It helps you to bond with the person because a lot of times you need to help each other, especially on steep slopes.
Although, don't get too ambitious because depending on the weather, what kind of mountain or hill you're hiking, it might require experience and sometimes it can be risky.

2. Boat trips but that only works if you or your date have a boat. It's extremely fun. Just make sure you know how to swim.

3. An indoor date with a movie marathon and games etc... that's really cool too

4. Road trips

5. I've also had painting dates. I love that one. But if you don't like painting you can just pick a hobby that you have and make it a bit fun and do it together.

6. Camping is fun too

I started dating when I was 17 or 18. But when I was younger I used to go on a football pitch that was close to my house and I used to spend time with the guy I liked there.

The movies are good, but since you want other ideas, I would say: grabbing ice cream or dessert together, amusement parks, going over each other’s houses, those floating lantern events, interactive art museums or any art museum, walking around parks, etc.


When in doubt, try looking up “things to do around me”. That’s what I do and I’m an introvert. My boyfriend is in-between intro and extro. He loves being alone like me but he loved hanging out with friends every once in a while and meeting new people on occasion.

-Go walk in park
-Indoor games like - chess - checker--online games..
-Teach each other skills.. You can teach him cooking and he can teach you how to ride a bike or guitar..
-Cuddle and read a novel.. You read one page and he listens, he reads one page and you listen..
-Go to a pet shelter and spend sometime with stray animals..
- sit looking at each other and sketch each other.
- buy 2 Airpods and wear then and link them to one phone select a slow dance track and dance slowly to the music..
- drag him to women's section in shopping mall and let him see all the stuff.. Trust me introvert guys find it the biggest mystery.. He will have many questions so answer them..
- do gardening together or volunteer work.

Introverts can do 1000 more things than what extroverts can do.. Stop thinking of activities like extroverts.. Think like what introvert will enjoy

[Nik1hil]

Interesting how girls like my introvert date idea!
However when I ask a girl out on such a date!.. It's usually a no!..
😢😢

[Starrisunset]

I'm a bit of an introvert myself. My go to was usually hiking. (As long as you feel completely comfortable/safe with the person). There aren't many people around so it's pretty much just the two of you. You can talk while you hike or just focus on looking at the scenery.

[erin_ireland]

Yeah hiking is great. Also mountain bikes riding.

[Starrisunset]

@erin_ireland yea that's good too!

[FloridaWeatherDude]

Here's a few random ideas:

1) Find a couple of kayaks to rent (or a single tandem- 2 seater) and find a cool lake to paddle and picnic.

2) Got any awesome pinball lounges or bowling alley around?

3) Like Frisbee? Google "Frisbee Golf" and find a park that has a Frisbee golf course... it's a blast.

4) Here's an altruistic idea. Look up "Habitat for Humanity". They have offices all around the country and organize crews to help underprivileged families by building free homes, upgrading community parks, and more. They're always looking for volunteers and you'll be surprised how enriching you'll feel helping & seeing the faces of those in need.

5) See if there's a local carnival, fair, or Farmers Market to check out.

[RichardCranium6201]

Hell yea bro. Awesome ideas.

[hannahjo022]

As an introvert myself, I want to do something that is fun to get the conversation going and won't make me feel uncomfortable. Going on a dinner date is extremely awkward and uncomfortable for introverts. I would want to go to the fair, amusement park, bowling, go karting, arcade, mini golf, and etc.

Well that shouldn't be your responsibility to come up with the ideas but you could stop and get ice cream and or take a late night walk in a park. Take some blankets and go park in a remote location and make a bed if you have a truck. I would say lay on the good but the hoods now seem to all tilt downwards and are flimsy as a paper cup. If you do have truck take some trails and go up in the mountains. Find a small bar or dive that has a band. If that's too much go to the library lol (that was a joke 😁) Get him to find a Redbox and pray he only finds one or date night will turn into wait night (another joke 😁) k2221

I think introverts love being in nature. So natural settings like a waterfall, hillside and other such places, but where there are not many tourists - preferable if there are none - I think that's a great place for a couple of introverts to spend quality time.

[USMC-Crossroads]

- Depending on the state you're in... Rent a pistol at a gun range.
- Go on a hike.
- Comedy Club.
- Shop for new books, see what each other thinks of what you're looking at.
- Fishing.
- Biking/Rollerblading.
- Wine tasting.
- Binge-watch a TV series you both missed.

[Toast792]

Do an escape room, go hiking, go to a cat cafe, go to a museum, go biking, try ice skating, go for a drive in the middle of the night and blast music, break into an abandoned theme park/visit a haunted house, stay at home and play video games, go to an arcade, the opportunities are endless.

[NoLookingAtSoleil]

Why do/would you need any 'good ideas'?
You are pre-supposing, presuming - there is something wrong with you for being introverted when the opposite is true.
Most extroverts are simply cocky assholes (in fact small/short/tiny people who scream a lot due to their inferiority)
Two introverts can actually get along, cuddle, be gentle without saying much (and give each other goosebumps just by emotions)

[NoLookingAtSoleil]

Regarding the dates - yeah, boat sounds great if you have one and if neither is too shy to go to that step.
If it's a first date, I'd say a quiet cafe next to nature, and then you can go for a walk or a mini-hike in some privacy (of at least not being stared at).
Kind of depends on how much latitude you have - if you live at your own place, just invite him over for dinner, whether takeaways or something you'd make (together) - it should be a comfortable place to be, and whether you hold hands or kiss etc is then up to you to figure out.
A movie and icecream don't hurt either (or video games if he is so inclined which I'd expect to be the case)

[Caunsos]

Movies game night there a pottery paint shop near me or those wine drinking and pianting classes. I think have a planned structured active hepl set expectations and provide topic of conversation. I would do an escape room a date for early in the relationship.

[On_cloud_wine]

Wine & Design.. yes!

[I-C3_ME]

Don't look at the "introverted" activities because most of them are solo, look at stuff you like doing already and try doing them together. You could also cook together, or read books together, just look at both of your interests and go from there

[Lionman95]

Maybe take drawing or cooking class together. You don´t talk much there but you do something together.
try out some sports like mini-golf or a board game.
Go to the zoo or a museum.

[pleaseloveme]

[Ontheotherhand]

Visit a museum. Go out to dinner. Attend a concert or sporting event. Hike. Go to a jazz club. Go to a comedy club. Weekend getaway. If all else fails, box.

[CasuallySamsonite]

If you both read, check out some bookstores or the library. Ideally browse around together casually on a day that such places are ghost towns, Small out of the way shops that don't get a lot of business can be surprisingly intimate.

[Bee-Hatch]

Find something that you can do together. Playing board games, visit a gallery, have a picnic, cook something together and share the meal, go on a walk. There's loads of stuff.

[Birdlegs]

My go to was always get food and eat in the car in some parking lot. We would watch anime or Netflix and just hang out for literally hours.

[jamezsexton]

Got walk a trail spend time with eachother play 20 questions enjoy being in the moment.

[ultimega]

Picnic in the park
Coffee date at a bookstore
Nature walk
Art gallery or museum.

[Billyscotter]

Introverts are good at connecting one-on one, and unless it's a double date, the focus of a date is one-on-one. So it doesn't matter what the date is, if it's fun.
