10 Quirky but Fabulous First-Date Ideas A movie after dinner. Or mini golf if you’re in luck. The first date always seems to be the same clichéd uncomfortable introductory interview. You try not to eat creepily in front of your date as you officially struggle to hold a conversation, which is followed by awkward silence at the movies that may lead to an arm-around-the shoulder move. If you ‘re stuck in a rut when it comes to first dates, fear not. Try these unusual but brilliant first-date ideas. Take a Class Learn something together. Pep things up by learning to cook, learn to Tango, or have fun with an awkward workout. This will help you break the ice and share an experience right away. Meet for a Cool Breakfast Date Instead of a boring dinner date, head out for an exciting breakfast date. It’ll be amazing to spend a nice morning with your date which will surely give your day a great start. Go to any nice breakfast corner or bakery and enjoy some delectable pancakes and scrambled eggs together. Go Ice Skating Warning: You may have to hold hands. For a flirty, fun first date, find your nearest ice skating ring and showcase your skills on the ice. Volunteer Together Helping construct a house, working at a kitchen, or cleaning up the beach will show how caring your date is and it will kick off your relationship on the right track. Ride Bikes Ride some bicycles together and get some nice fresh air. It’s the perfect introduction to a picnic (see next)—where you can relax and enjoy one another’s company. Pack a Picnic You can stroll together through the park and then have a picnic lunch in the greenery. Choose your beloved frozen foods from the ice cream seller, and converse while you watch people from the grass. Let Your Inner Kid Show Up Ditch the usual restaurant dates and organize an exciting and fun activity that both of you loved doing as children. There are simply tons of options such as flying a kite or some cool outdoor activity like basketball which will really swell up your adrenaline, leaving you gasping for breath. Hit a Karaoke Bar If it’s great for colleague bonding, it’s certainly worth a punt for a fun first date. Even if you aren’t any good at singing, it’s more about appreciating the moment and revealing your personality a little more. Go on a Wine-Tasting or Brewery Tour This is a great way to take the pressure off your first date, without drinking too much. Comparing your favorite beverages is also an awesome conversation starter. Take Dancing Lessons Sign up for one-hour dancing lessons where you two are beginners. The simple act of learning a new skill will pull you closer together. You can stay for the couples dance session later once you’re beginning to get good at it, or go somewhere else for a nice meal. These dates are out of the box, fun and really incredible. Which one would you pick out? Go ahead and make that first date a fun and memorable experience for you both!
