   So...Where should I take this girl on our date? [UPDATE: How it went]
  Yes! It's one of those threads. The story: I met this good looking smart girl last satuday I kinda fancy. We had some good chemistry going, and I did a nice move and told her to shut her eyes and I kissed her ;) and then we made out. A good start. Althought I wasn't completely sober - ofcourse not, neither was she. Anyway, we go our seperate ways at the end of the night. And she sends me an SMS the following morning, I reply with something neutral and then she replies with something neutral, and then I don't feel like continuing the discussion. Then in the evening she send me an intressting little sms as if she's gotten a bit paranoid I had forgotten her and she askes me  my plans for the week and I tell her I'm busy during the weerk but we could get together next Saturday. This is the first girl who's asked me "Are you sure you want to see me? Like get together and see if this could become something or just as friends? Please be honest, I don't know what you think!". Anyway I just reply "What I mean is I had fun yesterday and want to see you again". So we plan to go out on Saturday. The good thing is that I don't feel really any pressure at all, if this goes badly, it won't bother me.The question: So what should we do? Last date was with this girl who didn't know this city well at all so we went to this cool little pub for a drink and then walked around for a long time, which was kinda cool. But this girl's from this city, so I'd like to do something else. The thing is, I wanna do something and not just sit still in some place and talk, because in those cases awkward situations can occure too often. Better to do something and talk in between. There's this minigolf we could go to? Anyone got any good ideas? Good ideas (and I'd rather hear an idea from someone with a bit of experience) will be rewarded with rating++ ofcourse./MindWipe[Edited by - MindWipe on June 12, 2005 3:14:04 PM]
  If you've got a decent bowling alley, go there.  It's the perfect mix of being occupied, but still giving you time to talk.  Also, it can bring out that little bit of competition in a girl, which can be fun for both of you.And of course, most bowling alleys around here serve alcohol, so you really can't lose!   ;  well, mini golf is always fun, play a couple rounds.I don't know if you have any country or mountains where you live, but having a picnic on a nice hill at sunset is awesome, but maybe that's more like a 3rd or 4th date kinda thing? If she's from the city, she might like seein a little country. just an idea :)edit: picnic can equal awkward moments, so maybe not a good idea   ;  I second that, or you could try pool? I also quite liked the mini golf idea, it's always a laugh   ;  well, i do have a 'bit' of experience, but only that.personally i dont really fancy on relying on my own ability to avoid awkward moments either...ideally (imo) go to a place where the both of you have friends hanging around. that way youre not so forced to entertain eachother every single second. always remember though that she probably finds the awkward moments twice as awkward as you do, so dont feel too bad about it. girls that dont realize creating a fun time is something you do together and asmuch her responsibility as yours, are probably not worth your time. if it doesnt work out, its not just your fault.   ;  Paintball!Arcades might be fun,...   ;  This is tricky - normally I would suggest movies, museum, picnic, pub, restaurant...but these would entail 'awkward' moments (might be kinda fun anyway - how'd you know there would be these moments?) what about going to a games arcade, 10-pin bowling, paintballing (haha), skating?, swimming?..I've run out of ideas as I did most of these kinda things a looong time ago! :)   ;  Although I'd better already have a ++ rating from you *glare*, I'll still throw my opinion your way.Since where Im from (as above), is a fairly dead city, I can't offer you much in experience ways.  Unless your going to a club, there isn't much to do in the city. There are the typical date things to do which I would not recommend, unless you want to come across as a computer geek... *ahem*, moving on.. these recommendations are: * Ice Skating.. (Slice your hand open w/ your skate to impress her) * Bowling... (Race the ball down the alley like in Beverly Hillbilys) * Fishing.. (Just kidding.. WTF does that anyway) * Day at the beach.. (Remeber, watching other people on the beach is potentailly illegal) * Picnic.. (Make a nice hamper with honey, to attract ants and bees) * Moto Cross (..., well wouldn't that be nice) * Catch up with some friends and chill at a party.. * Movies.. (Excellent for dialog)so in summary.. do what you normally do every weekend, and let her tag along [Just don't get so drunk as normal]   ;  Minigolf sounds good to me.. I dont know whats around your area as far as sports wise, but I always like to catch a ball game (re: Baseball/Basketball/Football game).Lazer shows are always fun.. Musuem if shes actually smart, and doesnt just look the part.  Anything music related is good, even if neither of you like it, concerts always work out well.  Comedy show?  Open mic night at a bar?   ;  lollerskating...i mean rollerskating. sounds gay, but completely eliminates akward moments.
