PostHeaderIcon Sick and Tired of ‘Dinner and Movie’ Dates?

Have you ever thought about how important fun dates are?

Seriously.

I mean, if you’re in a relationship like me, then you know things get a little stale after a while, and if you’re single then I’m sure you know how important a fun out-of-this-world date is for leaving a solid impression!

Reason I’m bringing this up is because last week I stumbled across a great book I wanted to tell you about by Oprah Romance Expert Michael Webb. The book is called ‘300 Creative Dates‘ and it’s truly amazing!

Sure, there are many simple ideas that this book helps you remember by refreshing your memory, but there are so many ideas that I would have never thought of in 1000 years!

My girlfriend and I have only tried one of these dates but, gee.. I already feel so much closer to her. Brings back a lot of memories from our beginning!

My only complaint is that I wish I had bought this book the first time I surfed and found the page. To be perfectly honest, I thought I could find creative date ideas for free by simply surfing the net, but sadly they don’t exist. Sure, I found some ideas but nothing that makes you go, Wow!

Seriously, if you want to impress that special someone on a first date or surprise them for a special anniversary or occasion, or you just want to kick-start your relationship again, grab this book now.

PostHeaderIcon 10 Simple Rules to Always Remember

1. Whether or not the occasion may seem perfect, try to avoid being a wedding date or date to a work function on a second date. Follow up dates can be even more stressful than the first if important people like friends or family are present. Eliminate the stress by not even thinking about it!

2. If you told lies on the first date, correct them and come clean on the second date. This might seem like dating suicide; however it’s very simple to overcome if it was a simple white lie. Saying, I was really nervous last time and said that isnt completely true, this is the truth It will prove something regarding your integrity and show you’re taking this seriously.

3. The first chance to start showing who you are in a very romantic or thoughtful sense with your date plans is during your follow up date. If you picked up on something they like to do on the first date or know of anything that sounds funny then do it! You dont have to be as traditional now; a little trust has been earned.

4. A weekend getaway with friends or a drive with friends is okay, but dont get too crazy!
Always remember that though this is the second date and a certain level of trust has been gained, not enough trust has been earned to travel too far from home or to a too big event without friends present.

5. One possible plan for the follow up date to get a little bit of time to speak while also being entertained is going to a sporting event of some sort. Basketball games or baseball games are nice because you can speak and if you’re having a hard time with topics you can talk about the game. Not championship games or big events mind you, but regular games with a decent crowd.

6. Another nice venue for the ability to walk while thinking other topics go right by you is a mall or fair. You’re not obligated to go to any particular thing at any particular time, but have lots of entertainment you want.

7. Understand that now you’re on the true follow up date, that means it’s much like a follow up job interview that tries to determine one thing, who are you? Many people assume that you already find this out on the firs date, but that isnt necessarily true because now they have date # 1 to compare date #2 to. Who are you?

8. Dont feel the necessity to take the follow up date in the early evening up till the late night hours, its okay if you want to go out during the daytime. Daytime seems to ease the tension and anxiety that several people feel on a date as the sun is out and the lights dont seem to be on you!

9. As you choose where to go or what to do with the second or follow up date remember that you must take a little more time with the second date to converse. The first date needs a little more time spent in non-speaking situations like a movie because of the awkward times getting to know each other, but now is time to talk and speak well.

10. This might be more of a tip for the first date, but the follow up date needs to be a confirmation of who you really are, therefore be yourself the first time. If you set up impossible false images of yourself the first time it will get extremely tough now. Be yourself and make the whole thing easier!
