So what is everyones ideal date night? Would you like to double with someone or go with just another person? Stay in and cook or go out? Movie, walk, dinner, coffe, concert...etc?
For me my absolut favorite date starts with dinner at an amazing sushi restaraunt, followed by going dancing, either swing dancing or going to a club, and then going back to my place for a nightcap.
Kareoke is also acceptable, but dancing is much better |

It depends on the person. With you, my dear, dancing sounds like a good time. I would hope you know how to tango  I like the high energy level at clubs, but I find other people's frequent bumping and grinding gross and stressful thus tempting me to drink. I would much prefer to go on a nature walk or go for a drive. I once took an ex of mine out for a picnic lunch. We went to Friendship road in the middle of the countryside, and I thanked him for being such a wonderful friend and partner. We sat on top of my SUV and had our picnic overlooking the countryside. That was my favorite date ever  |

Ideal date night? No. There's no such a thing. Because dating is an inefficient use of time. Courtship can be accomplished without it. |

Optimaler, you must be my husband's evil twin. He actually led a study on courtship once, and was very particular about how we spent our time together while "courting". Funny---"date night" means something different to us now that we're married. It means, "Oh gosh, i get to have a conversation with you without kids screaming for milk/cookies/movies/stories/playtime/spills/tears every five minutes!" Sometimes it can mean, "Oh wow, we get to have sex without the fear of being interrupted!" All we really want is coffee, and time to scheme together. Once, we were so tired of not having any "us" time that we slipped into our utility closet while the kiddos were playing...to make out and chit chat a little bit about what we'd "like" to do if we had a weekend together. When we opened the door, little ENTJ was standing there (she was 2 at the time) and said, "I eat big poops!" |

@ Trance City: That sounds like a lovely date. Time spent somewhere beautiful with someone that you enjoy is always memorable.
There's really no ideal for me, aside from good company with witty banter, shared references and a connection, though I do love the outdoors, concerts, plays, museums, good food, art festivals, etc... Anyplace you can share a moment of fun / joy / beauty enhances a good connection, or at least distracts from a not so good connection.
But who wouldn't want a date with an "I eat big poop" punchline??

Yeah, it was "Boy Meets Girl: saying hello to courtship" by Joshua Harris. He led a group of guys going through the book. I'm sorry, I wasn't very specific with my language: it wasn't a scientific/sociological study.  |

Anything that involves food, good conversation, some kind of activity that we haven't done in awhile, and eventually sex and more conversation followed by more sex. Tonight we're going bowling... she doesn't know haha. The verdict is still out on the sex though... |

Hmm, well, as long as we are talking in terms of ideals... I would absolutely love a date night that revolved around hiking in the Black Forest, stumbling upon an abandoned castle, exploring said castle... or wait, it would also be totally fun to hang out in my elementary music room and create musical compositions with all the random instruments there (I wonder if I could get away with this? I could just explain to the janitors that I am doing lesson prep..) Shared creation is cool. It could just be attempting some hopelessly complex recipe (food) that neither of us has ever attempted before. Or, you know, renting a dvd is fine too. |

Shared creation... that's a good one  We had a great time once painting pottery. |

@Trance: I've never had the opportunity to learn to tango, but I would love to learn |

It's a very technical and sexy dance. I'm not so sure you have the skills or the sexiness required. Prove me wrong (please, for the love of Zelda, prove me wrong) x] |

And don't forget the mind-blowing sex inside the castle!

Haha, oh yeah, naturally. I have a feeling Wagner would just start spontaneously playing in the background. |

Ideal:
Compatibility
Intellectual Engagement
Sushi
Walking - maybe art museum or something?
Hike?
Sunset
Truthfully I am with Optimaler on this. I don't really like "dating." I want to skip that crap and just go to a deeper level of understanding. Dating is when you are just looking to have superficial fun, I feel. I mean, 9 times out of 10 I would rather stay in and be intellectually and emotionally engaged with someone I feel really close with than go jet-skiing with a practical stranger. |

I couldn't have said it any better myself. Most women I deal with have that wall of superficiality that must be torn down to have a meaningful connection. Men do the same; I'm not just singling out women. When I go on a date I just like to be myself, honest and curious, and visit places my date and I enjoy. After that, I like to relax indoors and cook a fun simple meal together (restaurants are overrated imo). |
