Interesting date ideas for a gay guy are not too different from those a straight woman might suggest.
One of the most nerve-racking things about your search for that special relationship, gay or straight, is the dating process. However, the dating process can also be, and should be, one of the most exciting parts of finding the right relationship. Dating can seem dull at times because too often we resort to the classic dinner and a movie idea. Dinner and a movie can be a great date, but why not switch it up a bit and really wow that prospective Mr. Right? Here are a few fun ideas you can use when planning your next date, whether it’s the first date or yours and his weekly date night.
1. A great date idea is going for a round or two of miniature golf. Mini-golf is a great way to participate in a stimulating activity but still have a solid conversation. Golfing is an intimate enough game that will let you to get to know each other while not just sitting in a restaurant. Regardless of whether you’re any good at the sport or not, flirting over your skills or lack thereof is a great way to lighten things up and get off to a casual start. Just be careful to leave your overly competitive side at your house.
2. If you live around a major city, a terrific date is to go for a night on the town. A downtown area always has loads of different activities to keep you pleasantly occupied. Whether you’re going in and out of stores, or walking through a park, the environment around you will provide for a great time, and some great memories. The exciting atmosphere of the town will also stimulate lots of creative conversation, and is a great way to learn about each other. You may even do something that’s unique to the city, such as a stage performance, check out the skyscrapers, or go to the pier.
3. If you two are energetic and able, you might consider going on a robust hike. Most communities have forest preserves or nature centers that are a wonderful place to walk. The unique scenery will surely be later recalled as a fun date, an it can inspire conversation about nature. Hiking is great for having the stunning environment spark a romantic mood. You might bring along a picnic basket and eat surrounded by the forest.
4. Think seasonally! In the summer, go to a baseball game. It doesn’t matter if there are no major league teams near you; the minor leagues or watching a local soft ball team can be just as much fun. In the winter, try sledding if you are in a cold weather zone. It’s casual, and it requires absolutely no skills. In the spring, pack a lunch and take a long drive to see the newly blooming flowers. In the fall, I would vote for a football game (playing or watching), but maybe going to a hilltop and picnicking while you admire the foilage might be more the thing for you and your guy.
Dating really can be an exciting part of being in or starting a fresh relationship. Building a social dating environment is important in order to get to know the other person. You might not always remember that sub-par movie you sat through, but you’re sure to remember the enjoyment of any of these more creative date ideas.
