Would a museum make for a good first date?

[ewright_1]

Yes

No

[noamazia]

if you both find it interesting then yeah.
a general rule of thumb - do something that lets you talk plenty and also have something to break the ice.
in a museum, if your conversation slows down or becomes awkward then you can just use one of the exhibits to pivot and create a new conversation.
in a bar, you let the alcohol let the longue and mind a bit loose.
coffee, doesn't do that, and thats why i don't like dates in a cafe unless i already know we have great chimestry.
my father was a tour guide, so i had this beautiful spot in the old town near me where it was beautiful - view over the city and the sea, plus you had beautiful park and old stone buildings. but the important thing was that i had lots of interesting stories from history - from mythology to stories about napoleon. so we had great ambiance and the conversation never stopped.

there is another stream of thought which is doing something thrilling since the brain can't differente between adrenaline from fear and action and adrenaline from love. so the other person will think they like you, and you keep at it until those feelings become real.

First date? No.
Second date? maybe.

Pros:
It's public, typically well lit and usually has some type of on site security.
Cons:
Quiet place to use "inside voice" IE bad for getting to know someone and unless you know they'll enjoy the specific type of museum / are using it as a test for a shared interest then it's not ideal.

Source: I love museums, don't get me wrong, I agree that they make a wonderful date location, but don't think they're a good choice for a "First-Date" First date, you want some place that is well lit, public and has lots of exits... AND is somewhere that you can feel comfortable chatting and getting to know one another. because, after all that's why you are there... not for the food, or the atmosphere or the entertainment... sure, those are part of why you are there and no reason you can't enjoy them but secondary to getting to know the person you went to meet.

Yeah! My now boyfriend and I planned to go to a museum/park for our first date.


We first went to grab some coffee and introduce ourselves a bit more, get more comfortable with eachother before heaving over to the museum/park. I think it was a perfect first date.


I think a museum is a good first date, especially for people who are nervous or introverted, because it’s a more “quiet” place, but it also allows you to have some distractions so you don’t get as nervous. Plus, there’s things that can spark up conversations too. If the convo runs dry, just mention something in the museum, and the convo is started again. It’s great.

It isn't a bad date idea, but I don't think it is a good first date idea. On first days you want to be in a situation where you can just focus on talking to the person. That should be your main focus for the first couple of dates

[Daniela1982]

I would go on a date like that as I like museums like Natural History or Aerospace, or Transportation.

[StoneFree]

Personally I like museums.

You should ask your girl if she has any interest in art before you take her there.

[Little_Bumblebee]

Depending on the person you're dating.

It certainly has the potential

[whereismyjohnny]

Depends if the person is into art. If she is, I think it's a great idea 😊

[HD1450]

Yes, it would as long as you find out firsthand if she likes that sort of activity...

[Twalli]

Depends on the girl and Museum. St. Louis History Museum, no. British Museum would probably be good if she has even a passing interest in history.

[DeeRocc]

With great company, any place can be a great first date.

[NorthwestRider]

If they like art, take them to art museum. If they like science, take them to a science museum

[SpaceGalaxy]

If both of youa re Geeks/Nerds, then yes, otherwise No!

[SpaceGalaxy]

* you are

[Squaresquirrel]

Maybe, depends on the museum.

[Bluemax]

I vote C : HELL YEAH!

[CountryWanderer]

I love museums and work at one, so yes!

[exitseven]

Yes, if she is the type that would like that.

[HeartFullOfGlue]

I think its a good idea

[driven159]

good way to find out if they are smart or not

[JuanVelasco2]

😹😹😹😹 obvio no.

[KrakenAttackin]

Absolutely.
