Things to do on a first date
The First Date
The start of a, possibly, new relationship is a fun whirlwind of excitement and desire. But, only if the first date goed well.
Ladies and Gentlemen, remember, this is a test. You will be graded on every action, every word, every tone you make and take. That’s why first dates are so nerve-wracking.
It doesn’t have to be this way. Plannning a fun first date, that allows time for interaction, conversation and activity is a perfect first date.
Now, not all activities are available all the time, depending on where you live and what time restrictions you have.
I suggest doing this: take a cooking class for two.
Whether you’re in a big town or small you’ll likely have night school cooking classes that you can “try out” as a date. Or maybe you can hire a chef for some two-on-one cooking lessons.
Call your local school board, YMCA, look in the phone book, or online, for a chef to hire.
the both of you will have a great time, you’ll both learn something for life and the best part is that you can eat too.
