Date night is approaching and it’s your turn to call the shots!
When you two talked about hunting for a rare Dratini in Pokemon Go it sounded fun in theory but now that your night out is coming up you want to do something more engaging. That same restaurant you both keep going to just isn’t going to cut it either. And we won’t even get you started on the bar where everyone including the bouncer knows you by name. Here are some fun ideas to change things up and plan a date your significant other will never forget!
Go restaurant hopping!
Start by sharing a salad from your favorite salad spot. Then get tapas from that Spanish restaurant that just opened up. After, go for sushi at that place just outside of town that always seems to be filled with people, and end the night with Italian style cheesecake from that Italian restaurant you’ve always wanted to go to. So much food, so little you.
Paint and Drink
Have a few sips of a delicious wine and paint the night away with your favorite person. You don’t have to be the best of the best or even the best at all– the idea is to get your creative juices flowing and have a good time!
The journey is half the adventure
Just choose a direction, and keep driving for a half hour or an hour out and see where you end up. Maybe it’s a town you’ve never been to or you stumble upon a lake or a carnival that’s going on. The idea is to appreciate how you get there and to make the most of where you end up, so no GPS allowed! Until the end of the night of course when you need to navigate your way back home.
Drive-in movie night
See what’s playing at the drive in movie theater on the outskirts of town. It could be another classic like Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Or it could be something recent. No matter what it’s going to be good!
Summer concerts at your local park
Pick a cool night, grab a couple of your favorite snacks, and head over to the park to listen to some of the sweetest sounds of summer.
Date-and-Bake
Spend some time together by baking a Chocolate Pecan Torte. After you finish devouring it whole you can use the rest of the night to justify it by talking about how you’re both going to the gym in the morning.
Dance the night away
At silent discos, everyone wears wireless headphones to rock out to music only they can hear. As an onlooker, it’s a pretty funny sight. But when you’re in the midst of other people dancing, you will be in seemingly silent bliss.
Go for a night hike
Set aside some time from your busy lives and have a relaxing hike on a trail for beginners. You’ll see the nightlife like you’ve never seen before. Make your significant other starry eyed with your impressive knowledge of the stars by pointing out your favorite constellations!
