When it comes to first date destinations and plans, it can be a tricky question to navigate. In the past, mountain men had it easy – they would simply take their date to a remote location and have a good time. But times have changed and now, it’s important to know where NOT to go on a first date.

The classic dinner and a movie option is a poor choice for a first date. How can you get to know someone if you’re sitting in a dark theater, with a movie playing in the background? And if you pick an action film, there’s a good chance there will be a lot of car chases and violence – not exactly a recipe for a romantic evening.

Another place to avoid is taking your date to your parent’s house. This will give the impression that you’re still a “mommy’s boy” and may not lead to a second date.

And finally, don’t take your date to a seedy bar or a motel. This will likely make your date feel uncomfortable and unsafe, and they may never want to see you again.

So, what are some good first date ideas? A casual lunch or coffee date is a great place to start. This allows for a low-pressure meeting and if the date goes well, you can continue to spend time together.

If the lunch or coffee date goes well, here are a few other ideas to consider: During the appropriate season, an amusement park or carnival is a fun and exciting option. No matter your age, we can all enjoy the excitement and fun of a carnival or amusement park. This can help take the pressure off of the date and allow you to have a good time.

Another option is to visit a museum. Many cities have a variety of museums covering a wide range of subjects. If you and your date have similar interests, this can be a great way to spend time together and learn more about each other.
