FIRST DATE:
FOR ALL OF YOU
|
 |
|
Sometimes hitting it off with your
date right away is a bit tricky when
your personality is on the shyer side.
If your date is also a bit timid, a
great way to get the two of you gabbing
in no time is to go out and do something
together that will give you conversation
material for hours. |
The most nerve-wracking
few moments of a new relationship are arguably
the last few moments before your first date
begins. When you barely know someone or even
when you've known that person for a long time
but decide to take things to a new level, the
first date can be stressful, intimidating and
awkward. But it doesn't have to be! Check out
these pointers for fun-filled first dates of all
kinds you'll be so busy enjoying yourself that
you'll forget to be nervous!
First Dates for the Adventurer
If you find yourself having a hard time
sitting still for more than five minutes, these
date location options may be just right for you.
If active is your lifestyle and energetic is
your middle name, try these on for size when
your interest lies in someone of similar
interests.
Grab some bikes and go mountain biking or for a
leisurely trip through the park, throw a pack
together and go backpacking, hiking or horseback
riding along a scenic trail, or head off to the
nearest amusement park. Excitement in the water
is sure to ensue if you opt to go tubing, jet
skiing, or paddle boating. For a slightly more
romantic first date: go sail boating!
First Dates for the Athlete
Foster a little healthy competition with
your new love interest and challenge him or her
to a grueling tennis match, a few rounds of
golf, or have a good old-fashioned catch with a
baseball. Need more exertion than that? Consider
going for a tour of the town on rollerblades or
find a parking lot and grab a crate, a ball and
two hockey sticks and see who can score the most
goals. Chances are you'll both drop the gloves
in no time!
Is the chance of rain threatening your outdoor
festivities? No matter take your competitive
spirits inside and shoot some pool, throw some
darts or indulge in some video games. Who says
you're too old to have a good time at the
arcade?
Sophisticated First Dates
Care to swap some intellectual tidbits or
compare tastes in fine art and history? You can
learn a lot more about a person by spending some
time together at a museum or an art gallery.
Figure out what he or she likes, and perhaps you
can even use your own artistic talent to create
a work of art as a surprise on a future date
with this person.
Another option for a more refined first date:
Accompany one another to a natural or historical
landmark in or near your community. Immerse
yourselves in the natural wonders of a nearby
park or other local attraction.
