Yeaaaaaah <_<

My main question is just as the title, ideas for activities on a date(s).
I know there is the typical "walk around the town" or go to places like bowling or going out to eat together and stuff.
Thing is i'm not so creative i guess when it comes to things one can do on a date. And i just started a relationship with this wonderful girl i met to a cosplay convention (would be my 2nd relationship ever then). I've already been with her to this huge shopping mall like place and it was really fun and we both enjoyed it alot (but that was still as friends), but i would really like to have, well yeah, a bigger pool of options.
Cause i'm worried i might bore her, even thou she says i dont bore her and she really likes being with me and stuff (this is just my insecurities that always appear when i'm in love with someone) (Oh and i already have met her parents and made a good impression it seems, and she's coming over here on saturday and stays til sunday)
Well we both are Introverts anyway, but it still would be nice with stuff to do.

So if it's not to much asked, it would be great if you guys could help me with ideas of things to do <_<

Hmmmmm, random brainstorm coming up (but I'm definitely not an expert, believe me :lol: )

Errr..... music concerts, art galleries, trips to the countryside, doing creative stuff together, going to a different city for a weekend (expensive though!), trying some new sport or other activity together (yoga or whatever)

I don't know why I'm writing all this stuff, cos I'm so lazy, I just sit and watch DVDs with my partner lol - but just cuddling up and spending quiet time together can be the greatest thing of all... it's not boring, it's the best!! Make the most of it :wink:

Music concerts
Now that you mention it she does like classical music, so yeah, good idea =D

Art galleries
I dont think there are art galleries around where we live, besides maybe in Cities like Copenhagen and stuff

Trips to the countryside
This is also a nice idea, sadly right now it's getting colder and colder, so it's something that we could do when it's getting warmer

Doing creative stuff together
We both like doing creative stuff, but in different ways, She likes to draw, and she's not an expert, but i still think she draws really well, and i mostly like to do stuff on photoshop

But yeah, those were some nice ideas, thanks =)
hope other people will also comment

hmmmm I rather like the idea of taking a girl out for a picknick at night and show her the stars and on a night when the moon seems big and is glowing yellow. It does do that from my position on the earth. Seriously. I mean it, I can prove it too mate.

Balance the amount of time you want to spend talking with doing something else. Classic thing is do something than occupies the attention first then you have something to talk about.

Making cookies or something can be a lot of fun. My boyfriend and I have had evenings where we wander to the nearest shop, buy stuff, then go home and bake yummy things. We also go to gigs quite a bit, and typical things like the pub and cinema.

Oh, well i've seen the moon in a more red shade before, that was abit creepy <_<

But yeah, thats also a really nice idea, but thing is it's really starting to get cold right now.
when it's warmer i could do that to, heck, there is a beach in my city to, and when it's night and there is a full moon, being at the beach is really nice, cause you get a clear view and stuff. It really gave me the "Woaw" effect

@Gremmie

Also a good idea, wel i like to cook in general, but mostly food, my sister is the one who makes cookies, cakes and such stuff, but still nice idea =D

Pst if she says it's "really beautiful" or some variation and she seems honest about it, you can say in response "but not nearly as beautiful as you are". Good idea mate, I hope it works out. :D
