Welcome to Good Date Ideas your online resource for the world of dating and relationships.  From first date questions, date night ideas, romance ideas, to the ever important good first date.   The world of dating and relationships can be a bit of a minefield for all of us, whether you’ve just met and are desperately trying to think of a really good first date, or you’ve been together for some time and struggle with date night ideas to keep the relationship exciting and fun. Whilst there isn’t a True or False answer when it comes to good date ideas, there are dates which may not make a good first date, for example going to see a movie means you’ll both sit in silence for two hours, not really talking or getting to know each other.  Alternatively a romantic candle lit restaurant can be quite intense for a first date, increasing the nerves and turning the dating conversation into the dreaded “awkward silence” A more relaxed and informal date can take the pressure off, letting conversation flow naturally and allowing you both to get to know each other better. When it comes to those first date questions keeping your dating conversation light and general lets you to see what you both have in common, as opposed to interviewing someone on their political views and deep personal beliefs. Those initial nerves mixed with excitement that we feel on a good first date, can still be recreated for couples in long term relationships using imagination and variety in your date night ideas.  Doing something totally different to the norm gets you both out of your comfort zones making you go through a new experience together. Creative date ideas really show someone that you’ve taken the time and energy to do something exciting and different with them.  This not only creates a great first impression, but puts a spark back into any relationship as it brings surprise and excitement.  The problem is however our minds can go a little blank sometimes the when it comes to thinking up these good date ideas, so a little help and inspiration is never a bad thing.

Here are some quick date ideas that can be done cheaply at the last minute and still have a great feeling of romance.

• Looking up at the stars at your local planetariums night show.

• Make dinner consisting only of finger food and seductively feed it to each other.

• Play the best game for physical flirting on the planet “Twister”

• Have a spa day right in your own home. Pour your favorite bubbles in the bath, grab some cheap champagne and enjoy a toast to you both.

• Roller Skating -  If you own skates, head over to the nearest roller rink for a retro good time. If not, expect to pay about $6 for rental skates. Make sure you hold hands during those couple skates!

• Pottery painting is a great idea either at local night college or at home

• Head to the local orchard. Some offer several picking trails for a reasonable price. You can also use what you pick to make dessert for two when you get back home

• Grab some old bread and head to the local park and feed ducks.

Then as if by magic, the message hits your phone saying “I’m really looking forward to tomorrow night, whats the plan, and what time are you picking me up?

Cue the nerves and total brain freeze….Where to go? What to do? What would make a good first date ?

Being quite a nervous guy around women, when it came to thinking up good date ideas I’d always found myself panicking and reaching for the old classics of either a movie or a restaurant.

Whilst these ideas are ok, they’re not very creative, especially the movie idea for a first date, as really you’ll both just be sitting in silence for 2-3 hours.

The best date night ideas take into account that everyones taste is different, whether it be an active, romantic or very casual date, like just meeting for coffee.  The key for me was using a bit of imagination in my date ideas, but this can be difficult as if we’re feeling nervous we generally choose the safety net of a crowded bar or restaurant.  By choosing something a bit different though, you let your date know that you aren’t the same as all the other guys and you’ve got more to offer.

The best lesson I’ve learned is to keep things fun and relaxed, especially on a first date.  The more casual and relaxed it feels the more you’ll both just enjoy getting to know each, removing any date nerves. Laughing together is a great ice breaker so finding Comedy nights or bar theme nights will keep you both being entertained and its a great start to the night. Then by moving venues and maybe walking somewhere nearby, this adds variety to the date and makes you connect more as your arriving somewhere different ‘together’.  

Not having the charisma and confidence to take the night as it comes, I like to plan a few places to go in advance that are nearby, so during the night you can spontanoeusly suggest trying somewhere new. By keeping the thinking on the night to a minimum, you leave yourself free to just have fun, and I think this really comes across. By doing this small amount of planning your night will have a more exciting sense of adventure to it, and your date will feel secure as your taking control.

With a few good date ideas planned for the night, the next question is “What do we talk about on the date”.

Making conversation and those first date questions can prove difficult as even if things are going well, every now and again in creeps the dreaded…Awkward silence….

One method of getting over this is by just making a joke of it, if you both go quiet, just try saying “Do you beleive in awkward silences”.

I’ve found this gets a laugh and a smile more often than not, then after that everytime it goes quiet, you’ll both just laugh.

Keeping the conversation fun and not too serious definitely helps keep things flowing,  try talking about some embarressing moments (minor ones) and asking light hearted questions, these can spark some really great conversations.

Please be aware though that whilst jokes can be great icebreakers they can also backfire on you when not timed very well. A friend of mine learned this the hard way, when a recent date lasted a matter of seconds, as upon meeting he jokingly reached in his pocket and said:  

“Does this rag smell like chloroform to you?”

I guess the lesson from this is to check your date has a great sense of humor first, and even then maybe wait until the second date.

Go for a spontaneous Bike ride, but make sure you pick a trail that’s pretty easy (aka flat). You don’t want to embarrass anyone, and you don’t want to ruin a chance to get to know them.

Once your at a great location

Have a picnic

Picnics are great for a change of environment, eating food, and of course talking, you can do it in a more public place like a park and have fun people watching.

Then Play some frisbee or fly a kite for a fun activity.

Or based on where you are you could do some basic hiking and really explore your surroundings.

These fun date ideas are not only cheap but show you’ve done some planning to create a perfect day together.

For me I believe heading somewhere public on a second date is a good idea.  The reason is if you find restaurants or bars with great atmosphere it takes the pressure of you creating it all yourself as theres things goin on around you both.  If its a day time date some fun date ideas can be heading to a fairground or amusement park as this gives you both the chance to be ‘big kids’ which shows a great sense of fun and humour to the other person.  Its now you’ll get the chance to ask some of those first date questions you were to scared to ask but be careful not to be too personal. Using your memory is important ,if you show the other person you’ve remembered things about them and things they said on the first date this will really win them over. You’ll find yourself being more honest with each other as your guards will be down but its important not to jump the gun and feel like you can tell them anything as its still early days and it needs to feel light and fun.
