FIRST DATE IDEAS FROM MEMBERS

MY FIRST OFFICIAL DATE: Was with a French Canadian high school exchange student that went to the same high school as me. We went to Vancouvers notorious nude beach ,Wreck Beach, and climbed the sand cliffs on a warm July night. After some kissing and fourplay she leaned over and asked "Would you like to fuck me?". I was16 & she was 15; did she have to ask? It was obvious she had done it befor but I was a virgin...until that night. So we did, again and again and again over the next 6 months until she went back to Montreal.

at home, with candle light, with a nice romantic music, dance, huging, kissing. making one another confortable.

Candle light dinner, maybe a movie and a good conversation.

cooking together......desserts are my favorite

It depends. Casual is good. Meet for a drink, maybe for coffee, have lunch, a baseball game, wine tasting, fly my private jet to Carmel................sorry, I don't really have a jet.

Nice quiet place to get to know one another-taking a walk in the park or meeting for coffee.

Have coffee at a Starbucks and check out our chemistry..........

I'd like to meet for lunch or early dinner, at a plac eof our choosing. And see how our conversation goes. Then after our meal, If things are going oksy maybe take a walk in the park.

Shall we dine at a fancy restaurant and enjoy some music?

After a meeting at a coffee shop to see if we have common interests and values and if we have chemistry, a nice dinner by the ocean so we can talk and get to know each other better would be my next move.

Wine bars seem to work, but I'd rather pack a picnic with good wine and snacks and meet at a park.

Light Lunch Or Coffee Walk In San Francisco

Not sure. I have not been on a first date in 25 years. I guess it would be a nice dinner, and talking, just plain simple talking.

First date huh? Well, I haven't had to think about one of those for around 20 years (widowed in 2009, over it but a bit unsure what to do next..times have changed) I would imagine it would depend on what you like to do when YOU are out on a date. I was military for over 30 years..highly adaptable in stressful situations, or not so stressful. However, I am NOT a fan of OPERA..so please..that can be a GNO thing (Girl's Night Out). If I'm near one of my boats, putting out to watch the sunset or pulling into a marina with a live band or something might work. I don't drink and don't smoke (used to do both, body paying me back for it in spades now..especially for combat damage). I'm not a virulent anti smoker but prefer those who don't, simply because I've had too many friends and loved ones die from lung cancer (one at 40 in 2009 and the reason I'm widowed) so I'd prefer, if we hit it off, not to have that happen again. I never dreamed I'd be in this position at 48 (49 July 4th) at this age. It's ridiculous. However, it has given me a HUGE appreciation of what the rest of the family did on my behalf while we were together. Never realized it (most guys don't, being busy with earning money and saving the world..we don't notice the stuff that's done quietly) So, picking something to do would be something I did back in my youth that I can still do well (short list, unfortunately). I can dress up or down as needed, but I only have one suit,, as I used my dress uniform for that up until 2007, nor a tux (mess dress for that) but I still think I clean up pretty well, and my daughters oddly agree with that statement.. I still race but despise nascar/circle track..going left for hundreds of miles isn't very interesting to me. (done it, didn't enjoy it) Road racing is what I do, or autocross. Now if there was an autocross happening, THAT I'd take you to..and I'd be sure to let YOU drive (as fast as you can against the clock..no cops to arrest you!)

Let's get together to know one another better with a good meal. If we hit it off the sky is the limit. So many ideas to go forward.

I think that a first date should be somewhere quiet so you can talk and get to know one another.

To many possibilities. I am romantic at heart. Tell me what you like, I'll guarantee to make it special! Dinner & Dancing? Sunset sailing on the Columbia? A weekend in Cabo San Lucas? I'm game for anything. No strings attached, just want to get to know you. Is there any chemistry?

First date should be a drink, coffee something casual. If we click then we can decide to continue for something more fun.

How about we have lunch at your favorite kind of restaurant.

A nice picnic by the river, where there is a cascade of water floating down while we enjoy each others company. Or Surprise me with your best homemade candlelight dinner, then we take a walk by the beach.
