on 8/8/2006 You should make a plan of combining a few things together. If you live in a tropical country, then it would be great to meet after work, have a chat, drink some tea or coffee at the local mall. Then take the person for a walk in the park, see how feelings develop. If you have a good result, you can plan more intimate activities.

on 7/26/2006 If you are a teen, keep in mind that going to the movies on a first date puts pressure on making out (a good or bad thing depending on your personality).

on 11/30/2005 You scored some tickets to a sneakpeek that's a genre you both enjoy. when you tell him/her "i scored two tickets to see the ____ snekpeek, do you want to come with?" it sounds like you've had those tickets for a while and gave some thought into who to give the tickets to. movies are unoriginal and seem like you had no other ideas.

on 11/22/2005 If you like a girl romantically. And you know that she likes you in the same way, then a movie is great. Before you ask her out, take her out to see a movie. It's not really a date but it's fun for both of you. And it works.
