Are you and your boo/bae always trying to figure out what to do but can't seem to agree on something? Do you usually ask, "Where do you want to eat?" and they reply with, "I don't know," making you bang your head against the wall until your unconscious? If you said yes to any of these questions, you're reading the right article. Dates don't have to be so complex, so why do we always make them feel that way?

Here are 12 date ideas for all you indecisive couples out there who just can't seem to get it right:

1. Watch the Sunset

Grab a blanket and some snacks and head on over to the beach or the park and watch the sunset. It's not only romantic, but it's also a great way to appreciate nature and the world around you.

2. Game Night

Like to get a little competitive? Have a game night and break out "Monopoly" or "Cards Against Humanity" or any other of your favorites.

3. Go to Ikea

Yes, Ikea dates are a thing. They have food there in case you get hungry, and you get to look at so many interesting pieces of furniture. You can spend hours there getting lost all while spending time with someone you enjoy.

4. Walk Around Your Favorite Book Store

If you have a local bookstore or a Barnes and Noble, walk around the isles and discover new books to read. Maybe pick out a book you can read together and grab some coffee.

5. Adult Treasure Hunt With the Geocaching App

There's this app called Geocaching, which is basically a treasure hunt for adults. You turn on your location and it will tell you where to find the geocache. Once you find it, have a pen handy so you can sign and date in the logbook and then you move on to the next one.

6. Check Out Your Local Food Trucks

There are always different types of foods to try at any food truck event. Maybe share a few different options so you won't fill up on food so fast.

7. Go To A Comedy Show

There are usually comedy shows that happen locally. It's a great way to just sit down, relax, and have a good laugh.

8. Brunch It Up

Who doesn't love brunch? It's an opportune time to enjoy breakfast/lunch food and maybe a mimosa.

9. Attend Trivia Night

There are many bars that will have weekly trivia nights, especially themed ones. Put your heads together. You can also get to know each other better by seeing what you both know.

10. Ice Skating

Strap on some skates and get on the ice. Doesn't matter if you look like a newborn baby deer just learning how to walk, you'll have fun in the process. Plus, you can hold each other's hand if you're scared you might fall.

11. Arcade Games and Photo Booths

Netflix

Go to an arcade, perhaps a Dave and Busters or a Boomers, and see who can win the most tickets. Whoever wins will get a cute prize to keep as a memory. If there's a photo booth, take some silly photos to commemorate your win/loss....

12. Attend A Sporting Event

You can find cheap tickets to a basketball or hockey game. Even if you're not super into sports, it's still fun to attend and eat some greasy food.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
