A friend of mine asked me for suggestions and I couldn't really think of any.   So I ask,  what do you or would you do for a first date?

Go somewhere condusive to talking.

That rules out:
Movies
Shooting (she don't need to know that just yet)
Comedy Clubs

The point is to get to know them, and you can't do it through hearing protection or watching a movie.  I generally avoid dinner as well since gold diggers think they are entitled for me to pay for it on the first date.  Pff, unless this consitutes a contract that I'm getting laid, no way.  Equal rights baby, women work to now a days.

Drinks at a local watering hole, not during the party hours seems to work good.  Not overly loud, and women seem more relaxed since its not in the evening.

Now if you get a second date, them go all out for setting yourself up for pie and picking activities/dates that promote physical contact.

Nice dinner out somewhere, maybe a movie, then a protein shake for dessert.

Not a movie.  You can't talk to her and get to know her.

Not a fancy place to eat.  To uncomfortable on the first date.

Not a shooting range.  Let her get to know you a little before you scare her.

Scare her first, and you will never get to break her into firearms gently.

I would probably suggest going for a walk.

Around here, we have Wonder bread bakery outlets where you can get day old loafs
for 50 cents.  I'll go buy a dozen loafs, and take my wife down to the river.
We have ducks/geese that stay here all year because people feed them.

Although going for a walk, or feeding the ducks are probably difficult in the winter.

Or, ask what she would like to do.

First date I took my ex on was 4th of july to the fireworks display at a baseball game.  5 years later, she caught me with another girl doing the same thing.  Might wanna avoid that!

If you got a nice place invite her over, make her dinner and then go out.  Really just depends on where you live and what kinda girl she is.  Don't do something that would make her uncomfortable,  have her pick a handful of things, then do one of them, and do one creative thing you can think of.

My wife and I went mountain-climbing on our first date. We found a horned owl's nest on a ledge, got 8ft away from the nest containing two very cute owl hatchlings with mama owl watching very nervously from a perch about 200 yards away.

I met this one gal that liked bird hunting.  Our first date was shooting pigeons over each other's bird dogs (training in the off season) and then we did not see each other for six months.  Dinner at my house on the second date and then we really hit it off.  
Got married this October.  I'd say, ask them what they are interested in and go with it.
Unless it's doorbelling for Kerry.

Tom ka gai is chicken coconut soup.  The particular restaurant I used to use for all of my first dates made an amazing dish of it that had very strong aphrodesiac effects, especially on blondes.  

There was a legend that was fulfilled time and time again:

If you combine

1) Tom ka gai soup from Dan Thai
2) Watching "The Breakfast Club"
3) Sitting on my magical historical sofa

You WILL get some.  Worked for me and many of my friends.  It has never failed.  And even if you only get two out of three it is a great promoter of happiness.


I must say it gave me an incredible reputation at that restaurant.  After a year and a half of revolving door dating the owners and waiters thought I was Casanova reincarnate.  Once I deigned to eat at their restaurant alone (I was skipping school) and was asked in a horribly thick Thai accent, "Roland, where are all your women?"

I must give my thanks to Mr. Noy, the chef.  You have truly made a difference in my life.

Excellent advice.

I might add that a good setting is one that inspires conversation. If the two of you are stuck in a dining booth with nothing to stare at but each other, the conversation tends to die quickly. However, a location that provides other things to see - without being distracting - will give you plenty of new topics to bring up.

Suggestions:

1. Pick a restaurant with a view.
2. Bring a small gift, as an emergency conversation-starter.

Here's something to think about, guys......


Women, despite their common trait of generally confusing the hell out of us by substituting logic with emotion, ARE ALL DIFFERENT.



What works for the cute gal who works at the record store is probably not going two work for the shy librarian chick....


Hopefully you've gotten to talk with this gal before asking her out. Pay attention to what she's into.

+1 on the talking date.

I usually go out to dinner where it takes awhile for the food to get to your table, then usually go for a walk in the park (if its warm, and its Day-Light Savings).

Tried geocaching?  It's a fun way to turn even a very weak hike into something fun and exciting.

Go out for coffee.
You (or she) can bail at any time, and its a "safe" activity with people around.  Its also dirt cheap.

On my first date with my wife (of seventeen years) I took her shooting clay pigeons.  I threw the pigeons and she busted them left and right.  She was using a Remington 870P with an 18.5" barrel, so she scored well.

Then we went to dinner, and afterwards we drove out in the country and found a nice secluded spot by the side of the road.  We turned the lights off, opened the sunroof and the windows, and then I opened the glove compartment and gave her the honor of pitching an Artillery Simulator out the window.

It was true love.
