Dinner
and a movie will work on any first date, but that has been overdone.
Have you met someone really incredible? Someone that has mesmerized
you so much that it took you a month just to get the courage to ask
her out? Well, don't treat her as you would any other date, show her
you are a classy, romantic stud!
With
today's society and the feminist movement, an ordinary date doesn't
work because women of the millennium aren't ordinary. They have
careers, money, |
|
and
experiences that will match up to any man of today. So here are some
ideas that are sure to make her think "If he is this good out of
bed, he must be fabulous in bed."
MORNING
DATE -- There is nothing wrong with having an early date. Maybe
your schedules are such that this is the only time you both have open
for weeks. Well, grab it and show her the time of her life. Start
with bringing gourmet coffee to her house and a bag of groceries to
make her breakfast. Something simple like fresh fruit, bagels, and
muffins if you aren't familiar with a kitchen. For those men who know
their way around a kitchen, do something like banana-stuffed French
toast. And don't forget to bring oranges for fresh squeezed juice.
Next do something weather permitting. A trip to the zoo, hike some
trails, visit a museum, walk on the beach, go tobogganing, take
advantage of your particular landscape and weather. If you are both
athletic, take an indoor rock climbing class, or kayaking. Is there
an open air market in town? Stop there and buy some fresh bread, wine
and cheese to take to a park. Even if you are new to a city, ask
around, most major cities have a free paper with a listing of all the
events around town. I always think it is nice to do something on a
date that allows the people to actually talk. Might as well find out
early if you have enough in common to talk for a couple hours with
each other. Have places picked out for lunch already, that way you
won't be stuck coming up with a fabulous place at the last minute.
You could even have flowers waiting at your table for her, if you
really want to impress her.
EVENING
DATE -- Meeting for a drink is always a good starter. Just make
sure you pick a place that fits your style, try to avoid the normal
after-work places that are crowded with people looking for 20-cent
wings and 40-ounce beers for only $2.00. If dinner is involved in
your date, pick a quieter place so you can talk. Get ideas from a
local bookstore to find your city's most original romantic places to
dine. Then find a club or organization that is having a free concert
in the park. Get tickets to a jazz concert, theater, or sporting
event. Take a ride on a horse and carriage downtown. Or just walk
downtown, admiring the lights, buildings and the city that brought
you two together. Drive through an old neighborhood with vintage
houses and make up stories about the people that live there. During
the Halloween season, carve pumpkins together.
If
you have the money and really want to impress her, how about flying
to the next closest major city and spending the day there? There is
an airfare war going on right now, take advantage of it. Just make
sure you do some research so when you get there, you have something
to do. If that is too expensive, try taking a train. It is less
expensive and probably more fun! If you are really adventurous, how
about going skydiving?
Remember--you
want to do things that allow the two of you to get to know each
other. Things that will allow each of your personalities to come out.
The trick is to ask her if she had anything in mind that she would
like to do (so you don't seem like a control freak), but add that you
have a great idea if she doesn't mind you planning it. Women love men
who can plan and be creative.
Bringing
flowers is always a good idea--get her favorite if you can find it
out without her knowing. Women like to get flowers not because they
are so beautiful but because it shows us you were thinking about us
before the date even started. If you get them from the grocery store,
remove the tag--that reflects a last minute thought.
And
what about the age-old question--should I kiss her on the first
date? Well, here is some safe advice. If you had a fabulous time and
are sure to have a second date, don't kiss her. I guarantee she will
be thinking about you, the date and what it is like to kiss you for
days to come. This drives women wild! If you are a true romantic,
kiss her hand at the end of the date. Don't attempt this unless you
really mean it though.
NEXT
WEEK . . . .after you have had that fabulous date . . . are
you nervous about getting her in the bedroom? Relax, read next week
to learn about women's bodies and exactly what we are feeling when
you touch us there! Don't know where there is? Then you need to read
next week!
