I just met an amazing women online. Granted, we've only been on a few dates, but it's difficult for me to imagine why this person is still single. I feel fortunate to have her company. Anyway, I would like to get suggestions from people on fresh date ideas.

Here's a description of the dates we've had so far:

Does anyone have any fresh date ideas they can pass along?

I prefer NOT to do something banal as dinner and a movie. Some other ideas I'm considering are a 3-hour cooking class. There's also an upcoming one-day art class.

Thanks in advance!

I think you are doing great on your own. So you want to go out with me???

Provide ages, fitness level and area and I will see if I can come up with anything for you.

You seem to like being outdoors, know anywhere to go hiking ? Not a killer hike, just casual with another picnic.

You're doing great. Some other ideas: go to a museum to see a special exhibit, pottery class, live jazz club, biking, wine tasting (one evening or a multi-week class), volunteer together at a charity event, explore local vintage or resale stores for old records or books (if you share such interests).

Those are really good ideas too.

You could also kayak. And I like Haz's idea for a hike and a picnic. That would be a great date to me.

Dinner would not be banal if you chose the right setting. In her shoes after all the golf I'd be ready for a romantic night out. I'd want to see how you clean up

If you're already running out of ideas, maybe the relationship is running out of steam.

What the heck kind of answer was that??? Bleh!!!

But I thought of another idea - I would get out a map of your area and have her close her eyes and pick a spot blindly. Then plan a route and take a day roadtrip and see where you end up. You guys can bring some music and spend time in the car talking and sharing the music that you like. Find a whole in the wall place to eat and explore. Sounds fun to me...

I mean that if he's already had 4 dates, his head ought to be full of possibilities. He shouldn't need to be checking with a bunch of strangers who don't know him, his lady friend, or anything about the area they live in.
