Great First Date Ideas

So you have arranged to meet her next week for the first date. Where are you going to take her? What are you going to do? Impressing a girl does require a bit of planning but you will be well rewarded for putting in that little extra time to make the first date one that is memorable for her.

Going to a movie for a 3 hour date is something you might have done in high school but this is hardly the best way to get to know someone better. Here are some dates ideas to stimulate your imagination.

1. Up, up and away
A ride in a hot air balloon is sure to get her excited. Plan the day in advance. Many operators only do early morning and evening flights. Weather conditions are important so make sure that you choose an appropriate time of the year to avoid disappointment.

2. Get down to earth
Picnics are a great way to spend a date especially if you choose a good location. Head down to your local supermarket and load up on a selection of cold meats, dips, crackers and cheese so that you have a reasonable selection just in case she is vegetarian, lactose/ gluten intolerant. Make sure you get something sweet to finish with but nothing that will melt. Also remember to get the insect repellent in the warmer months. Nothing will kill the romance faster than a pack of hungry mosquitoes.

3. Drive her crazy
Go kart racing is a great adrenaline rush and will give you plenty to talk about afterwards. Make sure you warn her in advance that she will need to wear comfortable clothes.

4. Fun on the sand
Head down to your local beach for and endless list of first date activities. Go for a snorkel, build a sandcastle or hit the volleyball court.

5. Play ball
Many great dates have begun at the local billiard/ pool hall, bowling alley or mini golf green. Generally these are activities that few women do on a regular basis and so they love the novelty of getting a strike or getting a hole in one.

6. Amuse her
Amusement parks aren't just for kids. A ride on a roller coaster is a sure fire way to excite her.

7. The star treatment
It will set you back a few pennies but hiring a limo for the night is sure to impress. Cruising the streets with the sunroof open and a bottle of champagne is not just for the stars and will make you shine.

8. In house catering
Hire a chef to cook for the two of you personally. Be sure to check whether she has any food requirements beforehand. You don't want your perfect steak to go straight from plate to rubbish bin.

9. Go dancing
A salsa class or night is a great way to get up close and personal.

10. Jazz things up
Jazz and piano bars are scattered around the place. A bottle of wine, some solo saxophone and soothing double bass provides the perfect backdrop for conversation.

Here are just some fun date ideas for your first date.
