| what would it be...? (Don't be shy)

If you could pick you ideal first date, not the person, but the places and things you would do. What would they be?
For me...
My ideal first date for someone new would be in a brunch setting, Like hey waht are you doing Sat? Nothing? Good, how would you like to meet up for a late breakfast or an early lunch? maybe after words we could do a movie or something? Cool.
See I would do this so if it went really bad, you have the evening to get over it and make up for it.... if it went really well, then you could still make plans with them that evening as well and extend your date out naturally. You go eat and talk just to do that, a meet and greet. Maybe hit a movie to give you both time to digest each other without having to talk. Then after the movies you can figure out what then. If things are going good, I would see if she would like to go down town to this great little coffee shop I love. It has local art and great people. We could sit and talk some more maybe check out the flyers to see if there are any live band any place that night. To me that is a nice time and not all crazy.... at any point either person can make a move to bail. but ok I would like to hear from you guys.

I agree...maybe start with coffee that way if things were going really good you could move onto a restaraunt, movie, etc. Starting early's the best way, that way if it sucks it's still early so you can go do something else

First date....A bite to eat at some place very low key. Some good conversation...Jeans and tee shirts a must. If that went well maybe a walk to somewhere nice just getting to know each other a little better...and if all goes well? A second date!

First date maybe a meal some where quiet that you can talk freely. If thats working out then I would want a movie and some other kind of outing. Dancing if your into that. If that seems to work out then I'd enjoy some videos at home or some park time. Do they have a Dave and Busters kind of thing where you are? They have food, drinks and games. That sounds fun.

I am kind of a klutz (and a slob) so I like a guy to meet me and fall hopelessly in love (just kidding) before we eat. I really just prefer something casual like a beer after work. That way, if we get something to eat afterwards, he might be too drunk to notice when I drop my burger on my pants or get pizza sauce on my jacket, or spill my water all over the table.

Okay, so I knew Dave for a few months before we eventually met face to face (we met online). I had told him that until that point I had never had a proper date - not even with hubby. Dave promised to rectify that.
He used to have this thing where he thought because I am alot younger (by 18 years) than him, that I would want to be out clubbing or something, but I'm not like that, and wouldn't have wanted to do that.
He took me out for a drink in the early afternoon. We just sat in a quiet corner of a pub and just...talked to each other. And then we went for a meal. It was very strange for me to be spoiled like that, and to have the man pay for it, but he set me at ease. It was a wonderful date, one we have repeated many times, so yeah...thats my ideal date...just a couple of drinks in a pub and maybe a meal. Hell, on Valentines day I knew he was short on money and I persuaded him to cancel a table he'd booked at a posh restaurant, (I'd have felt uncomfortable there anyway) and we ate fish and chips out the paper on the seafront instead. It was...bliss.
Simple pleasures...if the company is right, it matters not what you do and how much you spend. Sorry, I rambled! xxx Cheb xxx

see those are all great ideas I think... you have given me hope
Mama yeah starting early is good so you do not potentially ruin your whole day lol
dream yeah a walk after getting a bite to eat is good, it gives ya a chance to walk the food off... I love the water front or even a nice stroll on the beach.
Another I LOVE DAVE AND B USTERS lol they do not have one here but I have been to one in ohio, I have a coffee cup from there.
Meredith If I get nervous I get clumbsy as well lol I can be kinda shy untill I get to knwo someone... But dont be so worried about the food thing lol I am sure any good man would find it cute cuase normally it is the guy who does that stuff lol.
Cheb it sound like you and dave had a great date!! And allways feel free to ramble I like to read people stories lol

One of my dates P-M (Post Marriage) started at 7:30am ... it was a 3rd date or so.
He came to my house and made me breakfast! No He didn't stay the night before!!
After he cooked me breakfast and put the dishes in the dishwasher, we went for a drive up the hills.
We talked and stopped for coffee and morning tea, then drove further up the hills and talked and then stopped for another coffee in the next town. IT was great fun. We ate so much we almost feel asleep on the drive home .. well I nearly did.
Then we came back to my place around 4pm and just watched DVD's and snuggled... Perfect!
Too bad it didn't last!

A great first date is a brunch date that is followed up by a long walk to something or place that was fun. Maybe a museum or maybe a theme park, depends on the person. That is followed by a place to change so that we could go to a nice quiet place for dinner and then dancing till whenever, then a long hand in hand walk along some nice body of water and then......well it ends in breakfast in bed for the lady so i think you can fill in the blank
