I'm far from an amateur when it comes to dating - I have a first date multiple times a week... my problem is I never stay in touch with anyone after two weeks so the activities in dating are basically not as creative as they should be looking long term...
Typically its fancy dinners, and one big activity: hiking, camping, museum, six flags, art gallery, or a rock show - and then I run.
I just met a lady from Brazil :blushing: and I'm smitten and I need to get more creative in dating, and I need to come up with some dating idea's that are inexpensive, and normal relationship building.
For the record I preemptively stopped dating all the others immediately after our first date prior to her even requesting to be exclusive. :glasses: - I'm sincerely trying to be a better man.
What are some fun relationship building dates you have taken your partners, and fav exes out on?
And this lady is fit, and active, however she is sophisticated and enjoys the fine arts as well.
- inexpensive responses win brownie points.

Questions card, at a picnic.
Make a little "questions" game that you and her can play, and take turns picking cards, answering questions.
Write them together, so it's more fun.0 -
Well ask her what she likes to do for one. Perhaps bowling, try an activity that neither of you have done before, simple coffee, home cooked meal.
But that said, I'm clueless about dating.0 -

Multiple times a week eh. That's a whole bunch of fancy dinners bro. How do you maintain that rock solid physique when eating out so much?
Seriously, if the date was so amazing, then don't change it up for her. Keep enjoying the company and doing fun/interesting things together. Don't be afraid to make her plan a date...it will give you better insight into what she likes.0 -
Check out a local rock climbing gym. It's great for building trust and experiencing new things together.0
-
My recent dates have been mini golf, going for a walk around a lake and getting ice cream, outdoor baseball game, and making dinner together.0

Most women don't need constantly entertained or fancy dinners to have fun. Most of us just like to chill, hangout and be spontaneous while getting to know someone. Overplanned kills it for me, but I'm a "fly by the seat of my pants" girl. Anything with laughing is good for me. Make me laugh and you have me forever. A lot of ladies are like this, too.
Sidenote to the laughing: As long as I'm not laughing when someone takes their pants off, it's all good.0 -
If you're in Texas, look into Top Golf!0

I agree with this. A big deal date now and then is great, but something simple where you can just talk and joke around and get to know each other is good too.
Twister is fun and inexpensive, just an idea....0 -

LOVE IT!!!! I will do this because there are so many things I want to learn about her!
thanks XD0 -
rock climbing, Hiking is awesome as well, paintball, anything crazy and adventurous, but fun and safe that will build trust and will make you guys have the most fun possible! But first, listen, try and get to know her better, find exactly what she would like... Pay attention to the details.. The small hints... Show that you care;)0

^ I only eat side salads usually XD - with no dressing either.
For the initial dinner with Ms. Brazil it was a grilled salmon & steamed broccoli0 -
multiple first dates a week? wow lol I have a hard time finding one person I find appealing let alone multiple weekly
go you
also the best dates I have been on were ufo hunting at the beach in the middle of the night, german porn during black frankenstien at the movies , the drive in , smoking & talking at the park picnic style0 -
I think there is a meteor shower coming up, look it up and see if its visible from your location and pack a blanket and picnic dinner and watch the stars fall.0
-
maybe don't make the girl feel bad by sitting across from her eating just a salad.0
-
Take her paintballing; I have my money on that she'll make you cry first.0

coming from a very hedonistic background this had always worked wonders for me, because I would finish my salad in seconds and then get to talk to the lady and pepper her with questions the second she took a bite.. they always want to come off as impressive and sexy and I can manage to trump it if they really are by timing an awesome question when their mouths are full of food..
I don't want to be manipulative with this lady though... thats why I want the activities to be in her comfort zone.
love all the idea's except paintball lol ... I will let her shoot my AK-47, and handguns though! :glasses: I didn't even think of that.0 -
If you're in Texas, look into Top Golf!
not sure what that is.. but I love golfing so maybe I'll do a chip & put.0 -
The most creative first date I've ever gone on was a kind of treasure hunt. I can't even imagine how much time he spent setting it up but there were 23 clues hidden around town and at every clue there was someone to hand me a single rose and an envelope where to head for the next clue. When I finally got to the last spot, he was standing there with the 24th rose. Things didn't work out with him, but I will never forget the date.0

Get the book "The Five Love languages for Singles". Read it first. There is a quiz in the book to help you to learn a persons Love Language. To piggy back off what someone said earlier both of you take the quiz together to learn one anothers Love Language. Maybe plan a quiet activity together and incorporate the quiz. Maybe a day in the park with a picnic basket. Once you know her Love Language you can plan better in the future for what will really impress her. This one gesture in itself will win you mega brownie points with her. Add me as a friend I would love to hear how it goes. Wish you the best. The book is an easy read and worth its weight in gold0

That's at least worth a first date bang.0 -

Mine are usually just sex, and get out before her husband comes home.0

Yea at least he wasnt waiting at the end with a d*ck-in-a-box. Actually Id fall in love with that guy.0 -
I don't know if you have something like this where you're from - but in LA we have the Hollywood Bowl, which has really cheap seats on the lawn where you can bring a picnic and wine and listen to a live orchestra. It isn't too loud, but is a cool atmosphere to relax, listen to cool music (depending upon what's playing), and be outside for a fairly inexpensive price. So I think this is a nice idea for a date where you can talk, enjoy each other's company, and still be doing something.
I, personally, don't need anything too fancy and enjoy kicking back at a cool spot with a couple of beers - so keep in mind that she may be the same way... low maintenance, and happy with just the pleasure of your company. Good luck!0
