    That’s a tough one. I’d have to say April 25th, because it’s not too hot, and not too cold. All you need is a light jacket.

      That’s how my boyfriend and I had our first date. He tried to plan a date a few times but I was busy/flaky. One day he messaged me saying he was nearby at a bar with some friends and asked if I wanted to stop by for a drink. And here we are a year later.

    Definitely not a movie night, you don’t get much of a chance to really know the other person from that, and if either one of you decides that the other is crazy it makes it a little harder to dip out.

    Ideally something simple that’s good for getting to know the other person while being able to leave at any time. Coffee, shaved ice, frozen yogurt, etc. Then a walk through a park or along a beach, or just sit down/people watch, and discuss your interests to see if either of you are interested in a second date.

    Art gallery followed by some lunch, then visit a record store.

    This way you get to know the person’s tastes in art and you can judge if you’re compatible. If they don’t like the art you like it’s probably not a good fit. If they pick up a Taylor Swift album I know it’s not gonna work.

    I think a person’s taste in art is a very good indicator. And if they’re not really into art or music then they’re not a good match

    I would say going out for lunch somewhere nice. It’s a common activity that can go on for as long as you need, whether that be a long time or a short one. You get to talk to one another, and the focus can just be on you and your meals.

    The second date would be home cooking and a terrible movie. Like, Birdemic levels of bad. Something we can watch and have fun with, but can talk over it or start doing other stuff without missing anything good.

    • someone clog the toilet
    • someone fix the toilet
    • see if you can decide what to have for dinner
    • someone do the dishes
    • see if you can decide what to watch on tv

    if you can make it through all of that and still want to spend time together, it might work out
