I do…but I think I’m with you in that the reality doesn’t always live up to the dream. I hate insects…well, I don’t, but I do when they’re after my food, haha. Even if you do the beach…you’re definitely going to eat some sand. Sand is like glitter, lmao, if you get anywhere near it, it’ll get on you, and you’ll be finding more of it for weeks. I’ll still say yes because the romantic in me is stubborn, but they definitely come with their flaws.
Bugs can be avoided. It depends on the time of day and where you mat down. If gnats are a problem, put on vanilla extract, this genuinely works. For all other airborne pests, bug spray or bring a torch/bug deterrent candle. Ground pests you kind of just have to deal with. Usually out in the open sun in thick areas of grass.
I love picnic dates, I usually enjoy prepping the food and snacks rather it’s at the park, by the lake, or beach. I like putting candles and flowers for decors to add in the mood and creativity too lol. I have yet to have someone prepare a picnic date for me though.
@bobalife doing it together is a lot of fun, but you also both make a ‘secret’ addition. A decent picnic rug helps and some drinks
Well it would not be a secret then 🙄
I live where beaches are plentiful and picnic's are fun whether it is just my husband and me or our whole brood.

Honestly no type of date beats it for me, unless we're talking about vacation getaways or camping or kayaking. I love the outdoors and ona warm sunny day with a gentle breeze, a picnic date is one of the most bonding experiences you can have for a date.
can't wait to have a picnic at Iceland...
"I enjoy the idea of picnics until I get there and bugs are everywhere."
Yeah I felt that one.. Just gotta find a place shielded from those creatures.. But a picnic seems lovely..
Love going on picnics, I have a picnic hamper and all the accessories. It’s a really great date and summer day out.
As much as part of me wants to fight it (because I cringe at being romantic), I can't deny that that would be absolutely wonderful.
They work well with certain foods. That said, I'd rather cook out and eat at a table or standing up.
After the Covid crisis was over, my fourth ex and I went on a picnic when we were still together. My family and I sometimes have indoor picnics on the living room floor.
I'm the same. I absolutely love the idea but it's the bugs that kind of ruin it.
Yes... the bugs. Ants... Wasps. I like the idea of it. I prefer sitting at a bench instead. Or by a fountain.
I think they're probably great if you usually live in a city.
Romantic picnic are a lot of fun. I live in Los Angeles, so many places to have a picnic date.
I really enjoy picnics. Just keep the flies away and birds out of my area. I don’t want birds pooping on my food when flying over us
No, the wasps and bugs. And if it was another part of the world, scary as Bears or wild hogs
In idea yes but everytime we try to do one we get swarmed by wasps
I think I would, I've never been invited to picnic
I like things like this with the girl I like. I don't know much about romance, but I like it.
I was going to say until the bugs show up, lol , usually use a picnic table instead of being on the ground but it was always with family or friends never had a romantic one yet, still waiting for that special someone
It's such a cute Romantic thing, definitely yes
Nah, better stay in the home.
