Making The Best Out Of Popular Date Venues

When you’re out there on the dating scene and you manage to find someone with whom you hit it off, the first few dates are crucial. At issue are the sometime conflicting needs of being yourself, thus setting a realistic expectation that you can live up to, while at the same time trying to sell yourself as an already successful person, which may not be 100% true. Adding to your problem is the fact that many of the most popular initial dating venues have some hidden pitfalls that can kill a budding relationship before it has a chance to get off the ground! To help you all out, I’ve outlined a few potential problems that can arise during some common dates. In this way, you can avoid behaviour that will kill whatever it is that you hope to happen.

Mini-Putt

At first, this might seem like a safe date idea. What could go wrong? You’ve got an easy evening of walking through a few mini putt holes, right? Wrong! Even this cosy environment can have its dangers.

Whatever you do, do not compete with her, even jokingly!! Ensure that you up the fun quotient a lot! If you get trapped into a competition, you will lose, even if you win at getting the ball in the hole, you will never get a chance at the nineteenth hole as it were. And keep your jokes about long stiff putters, tiny holes and big balls to yourself!

Playing with Frisbees

Throwing Frisbees with your new love when on a picnic can be a lot of fun. There are some things you have to remember though. If your paramour is not that adept at catching Frisbees, you can embarrass her. Make sure that you lob in some easy ones to start to assess her skill level. If she can handle it then you can increase the intensity a bit. Just make sure that you never toss it so hard that you run the risk of breaking a nose if she misses it. That will definitely put a damper on the rest of the day's entertainment!

On another note, stay away from windy locations like the beach so you do not lose control of it. Before you know it, your disc will have flown out to sea, or hit some quick-tempered jerk’s radio. Then you have a fight on your hands. It is a much better choice to pick a secluded clearing in a park or in some wilderness area for such activity. On top of that,  even though there are hot beach bunnies for you to look at, the beach is also full of eye candy for your honey to admire. Who needs distractions like that. Better to pick a venue where both of you can focus on each other.

Going To See A Film

Movies are popular dates for a reason. If you choose the right movie and the right snacks, you get your date in the romantic mood. One real advantage of a movie theatre is the expectation that you remain quiet. This is a great because you can hold hands without having to hold up your end of the conversation. Paying some attention to the movie will give you a natural springboard for the rest of the evening's conversation. Make sure you dodge the following traps.

First thing that you don’t want to take you by surprise is how expensive movies have become. Make sure you have at least a lot of dollars in your pocket, because you will likely have spent most of that between admission and snacks. Plan to spend at least forty to fifty bucks. More if it’s IMAX.

Second, the choice of movie is all important. Make sure you reserve your tickets online or by phone. Also, make sure that it does not have some hot leading man doffing his clothes (or at least baring his chest). You will  be unlikely to score well that evening if she is still fixating on the washboard abs and rippling muscles of some Hollywood hunk.

Third, make sure the movie is one that will turn her on, romantically. Light comic movies are second best. Even a movie like meatballs has a romantic ending. So even the right comedy movie can end on a decent tone. Avoid depressing film noir type of shows. Way too depressing and that will lead to a no-nooky evening!


A Night Of Music

First and foremost, make sure that the music is something that she likes. Going to see Michael Buble might be something you hate, but if she is into his music, then grin and bear it. Choose what she likes. One of your most important roles on a date is to keep her safe. If you go to a venue where there are likely be be a lot of obnoxious drunks, try to keep a low profile. Better yet, avoid such places!

On another note, if you have been to a loud performance, both of you will be slightly deaf afterwards. So make sure what you think she said is, in fact, what she said. You don’t want to assume she said “I want sex” if she said “separate checks”.

Also remember that if you have been to an outside concert on a hot night, you will be sweaty and stinky – make sure you have some deodorant secreted away within easy reach!

   
Midway Rides

It would seem like bringing a woman to the amusement park would have all sorts of benefits. The best rides of course are the ones where she grabs you, either in fear, or just to keep from falling. It is a great venue for fun rides, challenging games, and eating sweet treats and street meat. Accidentally winning a stuffed toy has a side benefit giving her a reminder of your time together that day. Never brag you to your girl that you will win her a stuffed toy. Carnival operators have the games rigged significantly in their favour, so it is much cheaper to buy her one at WalMart. It is a lot of fun to try, but no promises. Besides going broke, too much time spent on one activity that only you are doing is no fun and liable to put a damper on the rest of your evening.

Be wary of the food as well. The food may taste good at the time, but eat sparingly. Who knows how sanitary the facilities are that produced it. As well, the possibility of someone vomiting as they get off a ride is a mental picture that will fizzle any kissing possibilities.

One last thing. Many rides take pictures of you at the scariest point. Figure out where that is before you get on the ride and try to look nonchalant at that point. After all, you may want to by the picture later.

A Night of Video Games At An Arcade

Even if your date is not into gaming, the both of you can still have fun with it. But as with many women these days, do not be surprised if she cleans your clock. So that means you cannot brag before hand about how great you are. Besides, losing is okay. It gives you the perfect excuse to take her back there some other day for a re-match.


Starbucks

Often considered to be the safest first date, this is not without it's own pitfalls. If the date is going well, there is a good chance that you will linger over several cups of Joe. As the caffeine builds, you will get the jitters, become a motor mouth, and in general start to turn her off! Have a cup of warm water with lemon in between cups of coffee. It’ll dilute the caffeine, and make you look chic.




As Forest Gump would say, "That is about all I have to say about that". If there is a date I missed, the trick is just to think ahead. Go through the whole date in your mind, and anticipate what could go wrong. Have solutions ready to go if the worst does happen. You’ll look like you’re a together sort of fellow, and that can only help your chances at getting her to actually say “I want sex”, and not “separate checks”.

Dating A Neo-Hippy Or Granola Child

The modern day hippy is often referred to as either a neo-hippy (who are very much like the late 60's hippy in dress, views, and outlooks) or else they can be a granola-hippy (those who are not really into political activism, but are into green Eco friendly vegetarian life styles). There are two other types of modern hippies, but they are not really hippies at all, just hippie wannabes. In my personal experience, one of the best kinds of women to date when you’re looking for a special someone is a modern neo-hippy or granola-hippy  chick. So these are not activists from the late sixties, although you shouldn’t discount anyone based on age. Just look at Cybill Shepherd, Sharon Stone, Madonna, Sigourney Weaver, Debra Winger, Ellen Barkin, Beverly D'Angelo, Kathleen Turner, and Margot Kidder for examples of 60's generation women who are still pretty darn hot! In any event, the modern day neo-hippy or granola-hippie will take a lot of their lifestyle cues from the 60's hippie movement.

Females from both of these groups will tend to be similar in a few ways. Like their 60's counterparts, they are into everyday clothes most of the time and seldom see the need to dress up fancy for anything. Jeans and a loose blouse, flaring skirts and a peasant blouse, or long flowing dresses are the norm. Their hair is invariably worn long and free. (They wear sandals and love to dance around campfires|They will wear flip-flops, or simple sandals, and go barefoot as often as practicable. They are uninhibited and thing nothing of dancing around a campfire on the beach, or just relaxing, looking at the stars, and contemplating the infinite|These ladies prefer being barefoot, and when footwear is necessary, flip-flops or simple sandals are preferred. Running shoes are for dress up occasions. They skinny-dip whenever possible. You can find them working with animals, volunteering to help young children, lecturing on healthy cooking, working in health food or herbalist stores, and giving lectures on Eco-friendly living.  They will drink beer or wine (especially if it is home made from scratch), smoke grass, perhaps indulge in magic mushrooms occasionally, but they will never touch the chemical narcotics that trapped the 60's generation. In short, they’re awesome!


Where to Meet

If you want to maximize your exposure to this new generation of hippy chicks, there are certain places you can go where they naturally congregate.

Drum circles – Just show up, chances are they will let you watch, and if you bring something that makes a noise, like a gourd with pebbles in it, you can likely join in.

Pilate's class – A clean life style demands regular workouts, and the simple mat exercises are most appealing to them. Find a class and put your mat at the back of the room for the most enjoyment as you improve your health.

Indie music festivals – Burning Man or Rainbow festivals are good. Read local free weeklies, or check Craig's list online for likely music festivals of this nature.

Organic markets/health food stores – Hippy chicks love a gluten-free, organic diet. If you’re at the same store buying similar foods, you could suggest trading recipes…

Lectures on environmental issues – these ladies are all about green living, low carbon impact lifestyles and organic foods. They seldom miss these kinds of lectures.


Pros to Dating Hippy Chicks

The most admirable thing about these women is that they tend to be happy with very little. That means that you can have a date where you only go out for a walk (preferably in a park where they can take their shoes off) and follow up with a snack at a health food bar or a herbal tea shop. These are women who will not dent your wallet seriously, and will be all the happier for it. They are fish out of water in a fancy restaurant, and would likely not eat any of the offered food anyway. On top of that, if you are just getting by with the job you have, they really do not care. They are into loving you for what you are, not what you have.

They don’t wear a lot of make-up or perfume, which lets you see her in her natural state. What you see is what you get. They will look pretty much the same in the morning, or after a shower. If you like what you see, you get to see exactly that all the time. As an added plus, they’re usually easy going, compared to a business minded “modern woman”. They don’t mind relaxing in a hammock or napping under a tree in the park.

They will tend to freely walk around naked in the privacy of your home. They usually have slender bodies that are a pleasure to behold and be held, and even when dressed, they seldom need the confining form of a bra.
 
Cons to Dating Hippy Chicks

Not wearing a bra can be a drawback as well if she had more than her share of estrogen and thus is well endowed. Gravity is not a friend to large breasted women, but at least you can see what you are going to get up front.

Additionally, hippy chicks usually have shaving issues. She might have a hairy downstairs, or legs, or armpits. Some guys like that though, and even if she does have “winter bush”, it’s the treat under the bush that’s important. In extreme cases you will find women who do not believe in deodorants. But you will figure that out early on when it is easy to walk away from them. You have to like how your lady smells.




So go get them and happy hunting!
