Whether It's Your First Date Or In The Midst Of A Long-Term Relationship, You'll Enjoy These 6 Date Ideas

Have you ever been on a date? Do you remember your first date? Was it horrible or worth remembering it? First dates can be daunting especially if you haven't met the person yet. Don't worry, just relax because with these ideas for your first date and some dos and don'ts for the senior singles to relive that experience (with someone else).

For those just starting a relationship...

It doesn't matter how you met someone. It could be through a sugar daddy website or through your common friends. Regardless, there's nothing like going on a first date. To some of you, it might seem some sort of cliché, but it should be memorable. And we have some unique ideas to help you out to make your first date a great one.

1. Take a cooking class

Having a dinner or lunch together might be a great way to have a great conversation. That way, you'll get to know each other and you can share some of your experiences. Make your first meal more exciting.

2. Attend a wine tasting

Once you've reached a specific age, drinking wine is something you can enjoy on your first date. And believe it or not, but there's nothing more relaxing than tasting some great wines. This date can definitely give you the feeling of being in Italy.

3. Visit a market or fair

You can surely go for this idea if you're planning a date in the warm season. Just visit your local market or country fair and enjoy the moments in a fun way. You can roam with your partner hand-in-hand and look for some fresh produces or buy something for your partner. And if visiting a fair is your plan, nothing can be more exciting than a Ferris wheel or playing games.

For those already dating...

One of the most common problems couples who have been together for years face is how to keep their relationship exciting. That's why we have come up with some great ideas so that you won't have to think much about your next date.

1. Explore your hometown

Check out some different tours in your local area, or the nearest city you can visit and enjoy. This plan will definitely help you fall in love and live the moment all over again.

2. Sample foreign cuisine

If either of you is a foodie, don't wait to take your partner to try something new. That could be a great experience.

3. Recreate your favorite dates

Nostalgia is something that brings back a number of memories you created with your partner. You can simply recreate that particular date.

Dos and don'ts for older singles...

People in their younger years often get very excited about their first date and start fantasizing about it. Some of them even start making plans for their marriage and honeymoon.

With growing age comes grounded thinking. See if you are OK with dating after a divorce or a loss. The new dating partner expects an unwanted shot and no comparisons — be it positive or negative — to your ex or late partner. And if you're 50+ and looking for a date, check out senior dating sites to reach your potential partner.

You should:

Dress appropriately but comfortably for the venue.

Choose a public venue for the date.

Keep calm, be relaxed and charming.

You shouldn't:

Be judgmental.

Talk a lot about your ex.

Brag about your credentials.

Have a sex on your first date.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
