First date ideas.. which of these is your favorite set up?

[WonderBell99]

Mine is option E. I’d prefer something low-key and chill, but the first option looks aesthetically pleasing, lol

Probably not for a first date, but when you’re in a relationship, perhaps?

This is a hypothetical question by the way

[OlderAndWiser]

On a first date, if you do not already know each other, then most women will be very careful to remain in a public setting where they feel safe. These ideas may be great for a fourth or fifth date.

For a first date, I have a specific restaurant to which I invite a lady: Seasons 52.

It is nice but not over-the-top, dressy but not formal, quiet enough for good conversation, and we can be seated at a booth (allowing me to sit beside her instead of across from her.) The food and service are always good and we can dine leisurely. After dinner, if all is going well, I can suggest that we move into the resaturant's lounge for an after-dinner drink, or we can walk across the street to the lounge in the Capitol Grill.

And if all goes well the remainder of the night, I walk her to her car, tell her that I would like to see her again, and perhaps I get a goodnight kiss!

[WonderBell99]

Sounds lovely!

I have updated the question hahah. My ideas are a little too intimate for a first date even for me, but I wasn’t really thinking when I thought of this question. Should have double checked before submitting it. These are probably good for when you’re in a relationship with someone because these take a lot of time to set up

[OlderAndWiser]

Yes, and on a first date, I suspect that most women who walked into one of those scenarios would think I was an outrageously desperate idiot! :) :) :)

[WonderBell99]

LMFAO. I’m dead 😂

Option C is the closest to a normal first date though hahah

[Uptowngirl88]

My thoughts exactly. I mentioned somewhere that involves activity

[OlderAndWiser]

Thanks for MHO!

[Andres77]

These are all awesome!
But... is the person worthy of this much effort?
In my opinion these are excellent ideas for anniversary moments. These are scenarios difficult to set up.
They haven't earned this much, just being a first date.
I don't mean to rain on your parade. Again, these are all wonderful ideas if the other person has earned this much effort.
Just a thought.

[WonderBell99]

I should’ve rephrased this question differently hahah. You’re absolutely right though! These would be amazing for anniversaries or birthdays or date nights for when you’re in a relationship with your partner. I have updated the question now after giving it some thought 😅

[SecretsofKB]

First date? C.

The rest are a bit too romantic for a first date for me, but that's just me. My girlfriend and I had our first date at a pub type place. Nice and relaxed.

The rest of these look great for us now! And I would love any of them lol

[WonderBell99]

I thought so too! I should have probably rephrased my question, lol 😅

[jennifer_bloom]

I chose the second one because on an official date, I like to feel meditative and cared for, I want isolation but don’t want excess, want simplicity and not complexity so do not want a difficult set up, I also want a degree of formality and independence so would avoid the bedroom set up, and I want something serious and somber, so would avoid the more humorous or laid back option. The second one has the tonal simplicity and exposure to nature, and novelty that I want.

[PastorJohn69]

I am a huge fan of option b. Not always but when you think that you have met that someone who is special.
If they are into you to, it is a great set up.
If b is not a possibility, then the last two are very worthy and both more relaxed. A time to just relax, have fun and just enjoy good company.
Dont forget to just be yourself. If you want to impress them, do that by being you. The first impression is the lasting one, that has already past.
So just relax and make the most of all that you do. Good memories are a true treasure

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

This would be a nice first date, now E looks good but seems like more closeness between you and the date?

[WonderBell99]

Yep hahah, I’ve updated the question

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

@wonderbell99 Never leave any food/drink while you go to a restroom
make sure you go by the body language they use also go by their language
when they talk and your welcome for the input :)

[WonderBell99]

Thank you so much for the suggestions! I’ll keep those in mind

I’m not going on a date with anyone though.. at least not for a few more years hahaha. This is a hypothetical question

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

@wonderbell99 Your welcome :)

[UniquelyBasic]

I think just cuddling and watching a movie would be nice so I chose E. Not for a first date though. I dont cuddle on a first date, Im going to wait until marriage to cuddle. 😅

[WonderBell99]

Yes, my bad. I should have phrased the question differently. All of these except option C seem way too intimate for a first date. I have updated my question tho hahaha

Awww that’s nice!!

[Rizwan_khan]

I like place where i can date any girl is like in nature calm and quite place where i can consentrate on my date listen her carefully see her face deeply.

[WonderBell99]

Aww that sounds nice!!

[Rizwan_khan]

Thank you actually i have seen people they opted crowded and noiser place and they do not listen to each other and that why people can make any bond

[Rizwan_khan]

Although i never dated any girl but if i will then i want to give my all attention to her make her feel special i don't care that how much long our relationship will gone but i want to live every moment of my life with her.

[WonderBell99]

awww! your future partner sounds like a lucky person!!

[Rizwan_khan]

Let's see who will be lucky girl 😊

[Avicenna]

F for me, but I always take her preferences into account when setting up a first date.

[WonderBell99]

Aww that’s nice!! F looks awesome!

[Avicenna]

Yeah, I think each of these options is great, but I think F is what I'd do on a first date.

[qwert1234]

I don't do fancy first dates.
I am there to get to know you. To talk.
We can have coffee and chat.
We can stroll and chat.
We can eat on a diner, and chat.

I want to get to know the person. I don't want her to be impressed by flashiness.
If we click on simple things, imagine what we could do on other things.

[Anonymous]

I chose the camping one because that just seems nice, cool, and relaxed.

Sorry it I can’t tell what option 5 is it almost looks like a bed but it has a computer or something on it? Haha

[Jltakk]

For a first date, just a cafe or something small to keep the focus on the two of you.

[WonderBell99]

Sounds great!

[t-8900]

what if I told you my girlfriend and I spend every waking moment together for a week and half and all the above was what we did on a daily basis plus more?

[glennos89]

I would go with the first option. It looks so warm and cosy its perfect for a nice date and there are no distractions arround. Just two people getting to know eachother

[Jamie05rhs]

For a FIRST date? C.
I almost would have said D as well, but the seating is too close together, so I would be worried about privacy.

Some of the ones on the end look really cool, but they would be for a first date.

[Kaamraj]

The first date should be something low key, low investment into the date itself and more into the person. I like the idea of coffee date.

[WhitneySnow]

I like them all. I think E is nice but maybe not for a first date. Maybe like after you’ve been dating a few months.

[Jemini_Crocket]

I like D. Secluded but cozy area would be nice for both getting to know each other and already being together. :)

[SynthKobra]

Coffee shops are pretty tame. Personally, I'd rather hit the beach and walk to a bar when we felt the sun was getting to us and just play the rest of the day by ear. Laid back but also spontaneous.

[Espresso-Grande]

C if it was a first date. But I would like either option A, E and G

[Pudsmucker]

For a first date for me it should not be something outrageous but something simple, coffee, eating out at a pretty good restaurant, going to the zoo, museums.

[AssholeNumberOne]

If there's two things I love, it's cities at night and skies, any time. This one's a no brained.
