Dates are hard to plan. You always want there to be a balance between fun and unique. After a while, the dinner and a movie idea becomes boring — and expensive. Here are some date ideas that will help you mix things up so your nights together can be spontaneous, romantic, and fun!
Bowling
Bowling is, to some people, an obvious idea, but it is overlooked by many. Bowling gives you the opportunity to show your competitive side and have a chance to talk, all in one. Even if you are not a world class bowler, this date can create many laughs and memories to remember in the future.
Half and half picnic
A half and half picnic is a fun spinoff of your average picnic. First step Is to pick a spot. This can anything from a park to a driveway. The second step is where things get fun! Give your significant other the choice of entrée or dessert. Whatever they choose, they bring and you bring the other. A half and half picnic gives you an opportunity to surprise one another in an inexpensive and easy way.
Arcades
What is better than a friendly game...or ten? Going to an arcade can show off your hidden competitive side. Arcades give you the opportunity to joke around in a relaxed environment, plus there might even be prizes at the end.
DIY drive-in movie
Everyone has been on the cliche date that consists of dinner and a movie. Whether you have a truck, minivan, or just a backyard, you can transform them into the perfect spot for movies and cuddle. Grab a few blankets, pillows, a laptop, and you're set. But don't forget the popcorn of course!
Bonfires
Bonfires allow you to show your outdoorsy side. Imagine, you and your person, wrapped up in blankets, sitting next to a fire under the stars. Do I need to say more?
