First dates can be very simple and still sentimental, or you can go all out. Regardless, it will be the most told story from a lasting relationship. Here are some real life first date stories that are heartwarming.
“It wasn’t super exciting, but we met up for coffee and then went for a walk and then because neither of us had any plans that day, our date ended up being 5 hours long. We got lunch, more walking, went for a drive, sat in his car, and then I finally had to leave. If I hadn’t, it probably would have been longer.”
Good conversation is key to a first date. If you can’t make a verbal connection from the beginning, it may be hard to come back from that, or even get a second date. This success story doesn’t have any frills, yet it’s one to remember because of how great the conversation was.
“My current boyfriend took me on our first date by piloting a plane on the 4th of July. We circled fireworks going off and then got ice cream. It was amazing. I was a student pilot at the time and we are both still at university. I couldn’t fly by myself but he already had his private license. He’s planned some incredible dates.”
A first date on a plane can be risky, but risky dates can say a lot about your character if you’re willing to go the extra mile. If you’re planning daredevil activities, make sure your date is comfortable beforehand.
“Told him prior meeting him in person that cooking is one of my hobbies… When we met, he took me grocery shopping and then helping me with cooking. It was all just so simple and relaxed and easy.”
This story is touching because it demonstrates how the little things matter. It shows that listening is key to making a memorable experience. If your date talks about a hobby, find a way to incorporate it in your date.
