We should have a first date thread. I think one of my fave easygoing ones is going to ikea to buy whatever furniture I need, with the caveat that we pretend we’ve been in a relationship for a while already so we can skip past the boring 20 questions intro you always have to live through. (I’m just tired of having 1st dates, they’re all the same)
For ours, though, I’d agreed to take her to see the christmas stuff downtown since it had been coming up, and she’d never had a “real date”. I jokingly took her on a “practice date” pretending I was just helping her get acclimated to actually going out w/ boys her own age. The running gag helped her de-stress a bit and just take it easy. I was a total chump and took her to my fave nice-ish eating so she could get the whole “guy swinging for the fences to impress you” feel.
