Best dates you've been on

Shaun @ Tru6 · 04-17-2009, 02:43 PM

I have a second date tomorrow night with someone I really like. Not sure what we're going to do. Might be able to make it to the Frogs exhibit (she likes frogs) at the Museum of Science.

Any good ideas for a unique and quirky date?

What are some of the best dates you've been on?

A picnic comes to mind.

My wife (pre-marriage) once told me to pack my bags, threw me into her car on a Friday night after work, and let me fall asleep in the passenger seat. I woke up to us pulling into a bed and breakfast in Stowe, VT. We froze our a$$es off that weekend (even the mountain was closed), but it certainly was memorable.

She also took me sailing on my birthday, once. (Uncle's sailboat in Woods Hole.)

However, kidnapping on a second date--while it might be equally memorable for you two--might not be viewed so favorably in a court of law. Blue Ginger has worked out for us, as it used to be where we'd go on anniversaries, birthdays, etc. Doesn't the MFA have monthly night time events for Boston area singles? Ice skating on the Frog Pond?

call one of her gf's and ask them what would she really really like - you get bonus pts. just for asking

Thanks guys.

A., that is quite a wife you must have! wow! Blue Ginger is a nice place, haven't been there in over 10 years.

it is going to rain tomorrow night, so no picnic Milt. One of my best date ideas in the summer is to rent a canoe here in Watertown, paddle down the Charles, have a picnic in Boston, then paddle back. Looooong day, but it pays incredible dividends. I think women like to see men work.

Randy, don't know her friends, this is a second date, but good for the future.

She gets done with a workshop (work-related) at 4.

I could give her a tour of Little Traveler World Headquarters.

You have a second date with a new woman, and you want to take her to see frogs?

You get stranger by the moment.

My best date in recent memory....i was invited over to a young ladies house i had met on a dating site. I had planned to take her to dinner and a movie, etc.

She lived in a very nice suburban area and her front door was partially open with a hand written note that said "come inside". Once inside i followed a trail of rose petals to her bathroom, where i found her completely naked in a double sized bubble bath, lit only by candle light with a bottle of champagne on ice, a tin of chocolates close at hand and one of the most sexily inviting smiles on her face that i have ever seen.

Frogs he says....

Am i really the only one that this sort of stuff happens too? (perplexed)

That's for a jury to decide!

I guess so.

Why not drive up to Philadelphia for the weekend, hang out around Sniper's apartment and wait for the excitement and EMS to arrive?

LOL

Not quirky, but... Invite her to dinner at your place, and then offer (read between the lines) to drive over and pick her up. Make her a great dinner. Low light, cocktails or wine, view, music, (suggestions from her friends), OR something you like, nice lyrics, beat or tempo, (jazz comes to mind) and candles. Make her comfortable. Have a wonderful dinner, take your time, listen to the music, talk, go for a walk......and offer to take her home. No strings attached.

Hold On

Date? What's that? Been on 1 actual date in my life, in high school. Different times I guess.

Laneco · 04-17-2009, 05:37 PM

Way, way, back in the day, a boyfriend took me to an autocross. DANG! That was FUN!

My husband is great for quirky dates, even after 20 years. Paintball and four-wheeling both come to mind.

Staying there next week. Something I need to know about that place?

Can ya'll recommend a good restaurant in the area? Went to a Atlantic Fish on Boylston and Tappeo on Newbury last time I was there. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
sorry for the hijack.

I think the aquarium and dinner would be cool.

hey Todd, to which date at the Copley Marriott are you referring?

drive to newburyport is a good idea, but it's going to rain tomorrow.

VincentVega · 04-17-2009, 05:59 PM

Best and worst dates have been sailing. It's warming up, get her out on the water.

Best date I had was 22 years ago on the first date with the woman I am still married to.

. Honestly, it was an awesome, memorable date.

Dude, have you been in a hole these past 24 hours? Some young lady got murdered in the hotel. They have all sorts of security video cameras of the suspect in the hotel, and walking down Brookline Ave. Very weird to see those photos, and know that you've literally stood in the exact same place before.

Take her to the Red Sox game.

Low key and you may need to bring a blanket if it's cooling off!!
