Dating Ideas and Tips

Tip 1:
Ask him what his favorite sports team is and then surprise him with tickets. It would also help if you do a little research on the team and impress him with your knowledge!

Tip 2:
Be waiting for him when he gets home from work, candles lit, soft music playing, and his favorite meal fresh out of the oven. After dinner take him out for a walk under the stars, maybe go to a small cafe for after dinner coffee, someplace quiet, and relaxed.

Tip 3:
Sneak into his/her home and place little notes in places you know your partner will find them. It lets them know your thinking of them, and I promise you will be rewarded upon your next meeting. If you can't get into his/her house, sneak a note into his pocket or her handbag.

Tip 4:
Plan a scavenger hunt for your beau around your town. Leave little notes all over town leading him/her to new places. At each place have him/her pick something up for the evening (like food, movies, etc.) Send him/her to your favorite store and let him/her pick out something that HE/SHE likes. If you want to get really creative, make the notes into little rhymes. This idea takes a LOT of planning, but trust me, it's worth the time!

Tip 5:
Picnic! Find a good vantage point for watching the sunset, and set up a picnic, complete with champagne, strawberries, oysters... whatever you want & whatever you know will catch your honey's fancy... scatter rose petals around & light tea candles... and have him/her meet you there at what should be the best point in the sunset.

Tip 6:
Go bowling. Pretend you are the only people there. Dance whenever you get a strike (or even hit a pin). Do 'trick rolls' together. Make up funny names for each other to put on the overhead screen. Kiss each other between every turn. If you want to make this date romantic as well as fun call ahead and reserve a lane. Cover the area with rose petals and have one of the tables set up with a rose and a nice dinner.

Tip 7:
For the Casanova - Girls will fall in love with you all over for this one. Before she gets home, light a bunch of candles all over the house, Have a trail of rose petals going upstairs to the bathroom, there have a bubble bath with music and candles waiting, leave a note saying something sweet, while she's in make rose petals go to the bed, then spread them all over the bed, more candles, and have 12 full roses on the bed. When she comes out to find it all surprise her with a kiss and carry her to the bed.

Tip 8:
Here is an idea that on the onset seems a bit childish, but is very insightful. Obtain a coloring book and put both of your names in it. Supply crayons, colored pencils, markers and water colors for the both of you to color with. Start by coloring one page of the coloring book together. Each person takes turns coloring one part of the picture with whatever coloring impliment he/she wishes to use and in any fashion they wish to color the part they choose. Then it is the other person's turn. No artistic criticism allowed! Discuss why they chose that color, that implement, etc. When the coloring of that picture is finished, try to associate that picture to your relationship (from the colors, the implements used, the style and the overall appearance). Then do the same thing another day, only each person colors their own page.

Tip 9:
Take time to think about each other, then sit together and write a letter to each other. Write from the heart, tell them what you appreciate about them and what you really like about them. Once you start writing it will just flow. Then exchange letters and read them together. This will bring you closer together...writing is easier than speaking sometimes.

Tip 10:
Before the date, buy a dozen roses. Attach a note to each rose telling her where to find the next one. The most fun place to do this is the mall. Most couples go to a particular mall, a lot. To find the next rose have her try to remember funny things that happened in those stores. Give each rose to the sales clerk. The last rose should lead her to you, at your favorite mall restaurant, where you will treat her.

More to come later!
