Search Results: great first date ideas

My friend (Olivia) was dating a guy (Cris) who lives in another state and him and I became friends since she was my best friend. Time passed by and her and I began to separate, I didn't talk to her boyfriend anymore either. One night I received a message from him asking if we could talk and I said sure so we did. He was asking me for advice because she was pushing him away and so I told him to just be there for her and ask if she was okay and to just be straight forward. They ended up breaking up because things weren't working out in their long distance relationship. My boyfriend broke up with me because he cheated on me and then Cris called me and we talked and he admitted that Olivia also cheated on him, so we were both heartbroken. Cris and I began to talk more then we stopped because I didn't want to have any trouble with Olivia who was still sort of my friend- he said she didn't have to know but I still wasn't up for it. Now, a year later, she is dating someone else and we hardly talk, Cris and I talk once in a while and are planning to meet one day in person for the first time ever We have a great connection, ever since we met it's been as if we knew eachother for the longest time, we laugh, we talk about serious things, we joke around, video chat, now we jusr need to meet. I want to know if it would be a bad idea to have a relationship with him since he did date one of my now "sort-of-friend" ?

So aha, I have been dating this guy for about 4 months now and we are very committed and I have known him for a long time before we dated. Anyway he is a great guy and so I know he definitely still likes me a lot however I know how guys say they do need space but for me I never get sick of him so seeing him every 2 days would be fine with me aha. So anyway the other day we were talking and he had said he just doesn't want us to with each other 24/7 and so its been about 2.5 days since then and when he said that it made me think hmm maybe I should just chill and not message him much over the next few days or so because I feel someimes as if im the one initiating most ideas to hang out and most contact so I thought I'd back off a bit and let him contact me. Well yesterday we hardly spoke but when we did I was going out to look at Christmas lights so I quickly told him I had to go but id be back soon and he ended up staying 'you hardly talk to me :/' and then 'have fun babe, I'll message u tomorrow x' but the thing is he didn't message me all day anyway so eh? We're supposed to hang out new year but untill then I'm gona back off and let him inititiate conversations and not ask to see him till new years. But I was just wondering what people would think, if im hardly talking to him and not asking to hang out because I don't wana initiate everything, will that make him feel like he shouldn't initiate contact because he feels unwanted even though I always initiate? Will this make him initiate more and feel less crowded and make him miss and appreciate me or have a negative effect? ( by the way I don't want to talk to him just yet, I just was try this first because I don't want to have to force him to want to initiate contact etc, I want him to want to)
