Where are great places to take a girl?

I think the best date I've had was when I took this girl to the zoo, even though we wern't five she really liked it.

Thanks!

Some sort of outdoor activity that let's you interact and get to know each other at the same time. If you both enjoy wine, I would suggest a winery. Good luck!

I think the zoo is a great idea, I don't believe I've ever met a woman that doesn't like animals, and you don't have to be a kid to get a kick out of them. Were lucky to have a nice one here in Pittsburgh, not to mention the one in Columbus is like world reknown.

I love going to the zoo!!! There's a very cool aquarium not too far from me. I went there for a date once during the winter and loved it too. It's expensive though.

One man posted that he took a date to a used car dealership that specialized in expensive imported cars. They walked around the lot and picked the fantasy cars they would like. That was free and sounds so creative. Until you know someone, parks are off limits for safety's sake but I like going on hikes in nice weather.

I really like people watching too. I like to make up stories about the people I see. I also do the same thing on rides through the country. You can guess how many children are in the families and what they do for fun, even make up names for all the members of the family.

Anyone can spend way too much money to go to an expensive restaurant for an hour or two but there are so many other things out there to do. Be creative. Incorporate the things you enjoy. Show who you really are by taking your date to something that means fun to you.

Remember to always keep it as a negotiation. Ask if your date would think something you suggest would be fun for her. If you think of relationships as a negotiation and compromise, you'll have a much better time.

The man who remains at the top of my list of best boyfriends ever, made everything a negotiation. He always did it with a smile. When I think of him, it still gives me goosebumps. He was certifiably cute in everything he did.

The Cincy zoo is very cool as well. My daughter helped in the Endangered Species Center there. She was studying to become a vet. Her mentor ran the center. She also founded a center for endangered species in Trinidad.

I think this is a very subjective topic. Here are some places dates have taken me that I really enjoyed:

- An aquarium and dinner at a cute restaurant (Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.)

- In-n-Out (my favorite burger joint) and browsing at a book store (we got to share childhood books and other material of interests), then coffee

- Dinner at a quaint jazz cafe in downtown Orange County

- Lunch and a museum complete with gardens

(and I know a lot of people are anit-movie date, but I'm a movie fanatic, soooo)

- Kind of early movie (so the dinner doesn't start too late) and dinner

Good luck with your dates!

Pack a picnic lunch and take some fishing pools to a spot by the water.

Great question, and some of my favorite dates have been to that I have had the best times are at:

1. The National Zoo and Smithosian Museums (I live in Washington, DC, so visiting those places are free as there is no admission charged)

2. Airport lookout point where you can park your car and watch airplanes take off and land. Living by Washington Reagan International Airport in Washington, DC there is a spot along the George Washington Parkway when you can pull off alongside the Potomac River and have a picnic and watch the planes during the day or go there at night and sit on your car hoods and watch this. Very romantic, free and a lot of fun.

3. Batting cages -- If you date like sports, this is a fun place to go.

4. Bookstores and it is fun looking around at all the books and having a great discussion about them.

5. Historical Landmarks/Battlefields - Living in the Washington, DC area there is so much to do and see around here that if you and your date like history, they are fun to go to.

6. High School Football game -- This was so much fun as we didn't know anyone that went there and went up the street to support the local high school. Reminded us both of how much the high school years were the best times of our lives and fun for a night to re-live those high school days.

7. The local playground and playing on the swings, jungle gym, merri-go-round, etc. Wish I was a kid again...

8. Hiking/Nature Trails -- Great fun outdoor adventure and always something to find to talk about.

9. Wine Tasting -- Whether it's at a local community event that puts one on, a restaurant, or at a winery, these are a lot of fun to do.

10. Game Night somewhere playing board games -- fun times and lowkey event and brings you back to childhood. Playing is even more fun if the other person is as competitive as you are.

Ikea
No joke. I told a woman that I had met for coffee that Ikea has the best cookies ever and it's worth the commute just for the cookies. My coworkers thought I was crazy! I drove her in and we had great conversations in the car; did some people watching at Ikea and goofed off. It was a fun time! If you can have a fun date at Ikea, then it can only get better when you go to a "real date".
