You've asked someone on a date... now what?

I always thought that when it comes to a first date with someone you're just getting to know going to a movie or museum or something first then going to dinner or drinks after works well so you have something fresh to talk about
 
A spontaneous crazy random adventure!

Beach, ice cream, dinner, ice cream again (why not?), drive around, stop at cool places, repeat.

Some of my best memories have been made by just getting in a car and seeing where the road leads to. And if you get lost there's always Google maps (you know, unless you're REALLY lost and don't have cell service)...
 
My first date with my girlfriend we had gone to see 22 Jump Street. It was really funny because we had both seen the movie in theatres before going on the date, but both of us were too coy at the time to say something so we both ended up sitting through a movie that we'd already seen. We laugh about it now 2 years later, and hopefully things will continue to stay strong cause I think she's the one (:

Anyways, my recommendation for people for first dates/dates in general is try to pick things that actually require talking. Take your significant other to a restaurant, go to the park and roller skate, do a cooking class/cook together...avoid sitting in a dark movie theater or places that hinder communication. You only get one chance to make a good impression, so might as well make it a good one (:
 
If/when I ever go on a date, I think a movie would be great. I love movies, and then we can discuss it afterwards, as we get to know each other better. If there's ever a lull, then there's always the movie to fall back on.

lol I've done that too xD I agree that going to see a film isn't always the best first date idea. It's a lot harder to get to know someone. I used to make this mistake a lot. Groovey gravy that it all worked out for you both (Y)

edit: (Y) is not thumbs up on PC?? What, what, what?!
 
Gettin it in

I had to
 
Assuming I even get there...

Dinner at a local restaurant that is low end. Nothing expensive. They tend to be fun places anyways.

And then maybe walk around or something. A movie sounds fun I guess.
 
I've never really been on a real date, but I think a good date would be something different and adventurous. It could be a cool restaurant, or going on a hike, as long as it was a unique experience.
 
I love going on dates to places like Dave and Busters. You get to have fun, talk and laugh. They have food and drinks too so it's a good place to still be able to sit and talk to each other. Have a couple drinks without getting too messed up and it makes for a great and fun night.
