Best place for a first date?

Definitely dinner and a movie. Go to the movie first, then, if you don't have other things to talk about over dinner, you can discuss the movie to break the ice. And go to dinner someplace that stays open late, so that if the conversation really gets rolling, you can linger over your coffee and dessert.

ask her!!! she is totally flirting with you. take her somewhere fun, but not romantic, cause that would be just CREEPY for the first date. do something out of the ordinary. like boating. or rock climeing. don't just do the old dinner movie rutine.

Not really, but assuming that you're an adult and not a kid: \n\nAfter several email chat exchanges, if you don't already have one get a photo. Then  move on to telephone. Talk at least a few times on the phone before agreeing to meet. First date should be in a well lit public place for a drink or coffee. Starbucks is a good example.

first date? well actually my opinion will be diff then others!! I would want to hang out with him his freinds and my friends just because id want to get to know him!(the real him)so i know hed be comfortable around the boys and me with the girls ya know!!! it might sound weird but if ya think about it it makes sense!! That way nobody is nervous and everyone gets to know each other and you can have fun at the same time!!

50 dollars to spend on the date? Or 50 dollars to your name?\n\nThere are so many options for a first date- coffee, picnic, lunch, bowling, something you both enjoy, and even dinner does not have to cost more than 50 dollars .

The movie suggestions above are good...  \n\nYou can also try, "Have you ever been to ___(insert place here)_____?  You haven't?  I have to take you there.  What are you doing on __(insert day here)__?"\n\nThe place can be a restaurant, theme park, putt-putt golf, funky area of town, cool store, ice cream place, etc.  The sky is the limit.  Bonus points if you know it's something she's interested (such as a museum for artsy ones, butterfly pavillion for nature ones, laser tag for athletic ones)\n\nGood luck!

Try something new.  And make sure there is plenty of time to talk.  A first date should be exciting.  You don't have to go all out, just be yourself and show her a good time.  Pay attention to her!:)

If it will be your first date, then let him ask to take you out.  But if the two of you want to hang out, then it's all right for you to ask first.  Since you are shy, find an event that you would like to attend and ask him if he plans to go.  That will help break the "nervousness" between the two of you.

A movie is always a great, relatively safe, enjoyable first date. Try holding her hand or putting your arm around her during the movie and maybe go for coffee, hot chocolate, ice cream or a slice pizza or something after the movie so you can get more of a chance to talk and get to know each other as well. Good Luck and have fun!

I'm guessing you're a girl from your nickname and avatar. \n\nAs a guy, I can tell you that there is nothing more frustrating than a girl who just expects everything to be done for her, and I don't mean picking up the bill, which is okay, but just keeping the conversation going, and making some effort on your part, is a good thing. Asking what you asked just now shows you're one of the good ones :) \n\nIf you do some homework on your date, you can find out what he likes, and then take him to an appropriate place. Best thing is to avoid the awkward silence. Going to a museum, for example, is a place where you can start talking on many things. If that's too brainy for a date, you can go to any place you feel comfortable in, that gives you opportunities to talk(best if it's something you like to talk about). Also, make sure there is a place to eat near where you're going, we always appreciate good food. \nYou can make a good date out of walking in the park, if you manage to keep good conversation. That doesn't mean talking all the time, just keeping him concentrated, and listening. \n\nMake sure it's not something that will be interesting to him as much is it is for you - usually girls like the opera and and ballet and things like that, and most guys fall asleep in those places(if he says it's interesting, he's probably lying). A first date can be some place neutral, that he can like too.

I think that movies are a cop out on a first date...I agree with those who say do something low-key and fun.  Outdoor activities are great and you could take a picnic.  Have fun!

if its a first date, dinner is first, then another activity (i.e. movies, bowling, or even just hanging out)  OH!!! as a plus, if you take a girl bowling, even if you're somewhat good, be sure to let her win.  Witnessed a guy slaughter a girl one time at the alley, and she was pissed off.

If this is a first date, what mood is desired if not sexual? Sensuality is just as important as sexuality.\nAsking general not personal questions of her on a first date is ok. Be a good listener and flirt. Watch your language as some women are offended by blunt none of your business questions on a first date\nNever talk about your ex's and braggarts are boring.\nHold hands, be a gentleman,compliment her sincerely and above all, pay attention to subtle little gestures she may make to show she's interested in more than just holding hands, but don't be pushy. Honesty is always the best policy, but you don't have to feel obligated to tell her your whole life story. Be a little mysterious. Women are attracted to men who have good manners too, so don't pick your nose when you think she's not looking (only kidding)

Try going to a really great antique shop to see who can find the most odd or funny item.  Then surprise each other with an inexpensive goofy item as a token of your date.  Go for an icecream to top it off.

You could make it a 'daytime date' and take her to a museum.  Keep it casual and fun for the first date, so there is no pressure on anyone and you can just talk and get to know each other.  Good luck and have fun!
