You’re a man and it’s your job to make a date that’s memorable, exciting and filled with attraction. Here are a list of date idea “templates” for men that will be sure to get your creative juices flowing no matter what city or country you live in. Why do I call them “templates”? Because you can transfer them into your own life and add additional “modules” (parts) to them to make them personal.
20. Local Concert
This is a great date, because you’ve always got a constant source for conversation. When things in your conversation die down, jump around. jump. jump.
19. The Zoo
Corny as it sounds, this is an awesome date idea. You can always bring out creative banter about animals and how she’s very similar in personality to that cheeky, yet shy lemur.
18. Martial Arts Lesson
Women love these active dates, and especially fighting… for some weird reason. Go to a place and take a beginner class and show her your skills. Make sure you don’t come across weak or afraid at any time. Big turn off.
17. Local Fair or Farmers Market
Nothing is funner than seeing some weird hillbilly at a fair. Make sure you make fun of their mullet and occasionally bring up the fact that she secretly likes the men that sport them. For you city folk, there are dozens of bazaars that scream “I’ve got second hand goods!”
16. Historic Part of the Town
Learn the history of your particular part of the town. There are always strange and fun events that took place in days gone. Especially learn those “this governor’s wife got jealous and ended up shooting him just around the corner…” stories. Usually these parts of the town are now gentrified so it’s a pleasant walk around. Say that you’re going to take her on an “historical tour” of that particular area. Then finish up with something sweet.
15. Arcade
Take her for a trip to those old school arcades and play physical games like basketball, air hockey and if you insist.. Daytona.
14. Boat Tour
Usually in most major cities in the world you have some sort of water. Usually the city has ferries, boats, or kayaks. Use them. One of my favorite dates was taking the Staten Island Ferry, walking around Staten Island for (5.2 minutes) and then running back to the ferry…
13. Art Gallery
A classic but a goodie. Try and be the “rebel” and break the norms without seeming naive or insensitive to the awesome art work inside. Prank that you’ll pull out your camera and use the flash… (guards hate this)
12. Theme Park
Nothing gets your closer to a woman than adrenaline. Women love it!
11. Tennis Match
Take her to a court and teach her how to play. If you don’t know how to play tennis… then teach her to play your favorite individual sport. Then battle for dessert!
10. A Friends …
Show her that your socially cool and normal by bringing her to a friends new play, band performance, bar tending gig, or house warming. This gives her a chance to see how cool your friends are (hopefully) and get to have some cool conversation.

Cooking together is my absolute favourite!
Anything Random and exciting, the higher the level of danger/irony the better. On a second date i took a girl out for lunch, but just to be random i ordered it to go, and we took our food to some near-by model homes and ate there like we were married. And it worked out nice, a place to eat, AC, and ofcourse a bed… Sex or Not, still fun doing something stupid/fun.
Great ideas.
I would add that there are no “great date ideas’ that work in every occasion.
A great idea may work better in one occasion or another one in another.
when I meet someone new for the first time, I rather go for a simple cup of coffee. this way we can chat and I get to know her, without paying more than a couple of bucks.
if that goes well, it opens up for another date
To know exactly what I am talking about, read my bizarre seduction stories that I call the Casanova Chronicles here: http://www.datingformenandwomen.com/free-seduction-stories.html
Tommy
Dance lessons(salsa, swing, etc.)
Jogging in a very scenic area
Walk and talk along the river walk
Snow ball fighting/ skiing/ sledding(ty Harry from Dumb & Dumber)
I have to concur about the firing range.
I can also add that it is a good idea to be prepared to make the safety drill your self and to know a little about guns.
This gives you the opportunity to instruct her and tell her what to do and go kino while doing so.
And you can say things like: “let your hands embrace the gun” and “As you squeeze the trigger I want you to allow your hands to fully take the recoil in and feel the vibrations in your body” etc. And all kinds of other subliminal suggestions while she is under the effects of the adrenaline. And sometimes girls get really scared and want to hug you for protection.
a good idea for a first date is the all too original drive in but dont go alone (as in just you and her) take a few friends. this makes the atmosphere more fun and exciting and dont worry there will still be plenty of alone time between u and her.
when the movie(s) over if u enjoyed the date so far and its obvious she has as well then take her out to get something to eat. this not only shows sponteneity but also allows for more time to talk together. if all this hasnt been enough for you and you really want to spend a few more hours with her take her out to a hill on the outskirts of town with a nice view and watch the sunrise with her.
i tried this on a first date and the results were life changing. i had a blast with her and we ended up dating for three years and were married last september on the 4th( on the same hill where we watched the sunrise) when people ask her when she knew i was the one she replies “when we watched the sunrise on our first date.”
All women love horses? The f-ing mall? Food fights? WTF??? How stupid do you think we are? And – thank you Lino – please give me instructions on how to shoot a gun b.c. clearly a woman wouldn’t know how to use one. We’re not children, you don’t have to entertain us.
Best “dates” I’ve been on weren’t dates. In fact, dates blow. Throw the concept out. It’s garbage. The best date equivalents I’ve been on include : a one-week vacation to MT, complete with hiking, canoeing and mushroom hunting. Working together to build a set for a play…. and… impromptu birthday beers at the best little bar on the West Bank.
Haha i love the last comment
she just blasted every guy that commented before
Hurray for Debbie
I hate the date concept as much as the next guy. And believe me all those “routines” are mighty annoying, but the fact is that they work and that they tend to lead to a pleasant altogether experience for everyone involved so they are worth the trouble most of the time.
And in my experience most women even when they are far from stupid prefer to act as in “stupid mode” during what I would call typical male – female interactions.
And there are some good reasons for that behaviour, basically all this is in our genes, but lets not get into details.
And I don’t know how things are in your corner of the world, but where I come from in my lifetime I’ve only encountered one woman that could handle a gun and she was an instructor at one of the firing ranges that I visit occasionally (that alone gave her +40 attraction points).
… but that’s the easy part of life. Normally I have to go do all that stuff with the guys only.
Otherwise in the rare occasions that I come across an attractive woman that would go hiking, canoeing and is capable of spending a night in a tent without whining 26 hours a day I call myself a lucky man and I fire up the mushroom hunting equipment
Anyway I appreciate your thoughts. A constructive female perspective on these things is always interesting.
P.S.
so stupidity has nothing to with it and its quite often a good idea to threat a woman like a child.
I did the firing range date with a girl recently. She is a pretty decent software developer, reads a lot of good books and can hold her end of an intellectual conversation and on top of that she is on of those rare girls that I would take rafting (in fact I did), but she enjoyed the instructions on the firing range a lot and those afterwards as well
And I appreciate how this would be something that most women wouldn’t like to admit …
Hey Lino,
It is not a good idea to treat a woman like a child. Most intelligent women in this world do not seek a “daddy” or “teacher”. Not to say that there aren’t things we could learn from the boys. However, being treated as an equal while being instructed in a new hobby or task is more often than not a nice exchange when getting to know someone. This works so much in your favor because you appear knowledgeable about something cool we want to know more about, AND you’re awesome enough to expose us to it. Oh by the way, there are only 24 hours in a day.
IKEA!!!
I am very surprised that no one has mention going to a comedy club! Women love to drink and laugh afterward the show you can take her for a walk get the (IOI), get coffee or dessert, talk, and close the deal. This way your showing her a great time setting the positive mood and feedback.
Most important if you like her you can definitely get a second date!
How about some mild physical activities? Bowling, tennis table, skating, things like that. Of course they must be fun with no competition at all.
Great Date is a Wine or Beer Tasting; Just make sure that she likes
wine or beer before you take her there.AVOID getting sloshed on this
date, not sexy…however let her drink as much as she wants. If she
is the one that gets sloshed, make sure that you behave like a total
gentleman and go no further than a kiss even if she is begging. You
should at least kiss her because she might possibly think that you are
not attracted to her. She’ll greatly appreciate it in the morning. When you are both in your right senses shell definetly remember your chivalry and maybe do something extra she might not normally do the first time she hooks up with a guy.
People don’t call me Dennis the menace for nothing: I absolutely love playful teasing, challenging, making jokes, and so on. Because of that women often see me as the devilish dude, the bad boy and they love it. What I do and advise others to do is theme your dates around your personality. This way, your strongest and most loved traits will show the most.
That’s why I go on dates that are similar to bad boys: exciting, some risk involved, playful. Example: instead of going to the beach or swimming, swimming in someone else’s pool at night when they’re not at home. Instead of “just” going for drinks, I go somewhere with a woman and order the weirdest sounding thing on the menu and ask them to double the alcohol percentage, then play a drinking game.
It’s real easy to add that twist, that little risk that makes the difference between a date and a “bad boy date.” And maybe YOU are a guy that loves magic tricks, mystery and so forth… so why not build a date around it that allows you to show your talent? Women fall for talent like CRAZY, so be smart and use it when thinking of a place or a way to date…
To more dating success,
Dennis Miedema
Glider ride for 2
haha debbie…..mushroom hunting….what a hick
Fake Dine and dash
Worked for me, it was amusing
I told the girl this date was on me, and not to bring any money. Had a great dinner at good resturant then i secretly paid for the meals on way to the toilet.
As we finish the wine i realise i dont have my wallet (not true), i tell her. We were both gettin a bit pissy so we spend 10 mins quietly plotting our escape and encouraging each other.
We get up and bolt wen the times right and run full pace to the randevous. We stop, still panting, she is laughing hestericaly because we got away and she had never anything like that before.
her adrenaline thru the roof, bad girl for a night.
Went home for sexy time.
She still tells her friends about it…cant bring my self to tell her it wasnt real.
MARGARITAS AND COOKIES AHHAHAHAHAHHAHA AND THEN WALK AFTERWARDS……DO THIS @BERRYHILL
Jesus guys.. are you really serious.first being only 32 and dating more woman than a small world country and having most fall in love I can tell you one thing.. you are the prize not the other way around.. take her and dothings you think are fun.. what I’m trying to tell you from experience is there is nothing worst than going out of the normal and going all out because that’s not you.. if you really like this girl then show her you and be creative that way you don’t have to overplay yourself and basically lie.. she will appriciate you and if not well she’s not worth a second thought .. all of these top 10 ideas are great ( if you were the writer ) but take her and do something meaningful to you.. example there was this baseball park I spent countless summer at.. I put a little work into convinced the supervisor of the park to hit the lights and we had a romantic picnic.. all woman want is to know you put a little thought and effort.. goes way more than taking them to a fancy dinner.. show her why she’s lucky YOU took her out.. I can promise both will be happy.. be yourself and good luck.
P.S and for God sakes be a gentalman open door, pay etc..
if you live in california in the los angeles area go to eaton canyon for a hike and hav a picnic at the waterfall <3 it was amazing for both of us
PICNIC!
Find out what she liked as a kid and make her something simple yet special…The last one I did was actually a moonlite picnic with fish sticks and kool aid!
I still have to say my favorite date has been when I took my new date to a dollar store. We had a competition on who could buy the coolest 5 items and then ask the cashier to be the judge. We both looked ridiculous but had an amazing time arguing whose stuff was better.
I had a wig on and continued to do the Justin Bieber hair sweep and peace sign. Not gonna lie, it was pretty sexy. One tip though if you’re gonna do this, try to let her win….
Cheers and good luck!
