A Romantic Helicopter Tour
Mar 24th, 2007 | Date Ideas, Dates, Romantic Ideas, Unique Ideas, User Submitted
We always wondered how many people actually end up doing the things we suggest…so this was really refreshing.
Last week we received an email from one of our users, Alan Oratovsky, thanking us for helping him plan his date. Alan works as a paramedic in Riverside, California and he wanted to do something really special and romantic for his girlfriend. He began by taking a 45-minute helicopter tour of Los Angeles at sunset and finished it off with a candlelight dinner by the beach.
Here are some photos that Alan included from his helicopter ride:

Group Dating In Your Thirties
Feb 2nd, 2007 | Date Ideas, Dating Advice, First Dates, Fun Ideas
In junior high, before our parents would let us go out solo with the cute boy from history class, we embarked into the crowded and often hormone filled cesspool of group dating. Usually we were paired up with other kids our parents were friends with. Or worse, we had to cross our fingers that we didn’t get stuck with older brothers with new driver’s licenses or teamed up with cousins in town visiting for the holidays. All we wanted were a few stolen moments with the cute boy, but we rarely, if ever, got them.

Ice skating is a great activity to enjoy by yourself, on a date, or with a group of friends. In the past, ice skating was not just a recreational activity, but a way to travel over frozen lakes or rivers.
Today, ice skating can still be done on a natural ice surface, but most of the time people prefer to skate on a man-made ice skating rink. Because of the popularity of the sport, indoor ice skating rinks are available in most cities, and you can now ice skate all year round.

Full, golden moons and shooting stars are some of the romantic celestial gems often dreamed about for that perfect night out with your date. However, when you go on a date at night, the expectations for a date to go beyond your front door, whether you are ready to or not, are often there. One way to avoid the awkward pause at the front door is to not even have it be part of the equation until you are ready for it. This is easily achieved by dating in the daytime.
Dating On A Budget

Just because things are tight in your checking account doesn’t mean that you have to board up all of the windows and turn down dates. Dating with little or no money is easy if you keep an open mind. Sure you could throw yourself at the mercy of the person that you are dating, but expecting your date to pay your way takes the excitement out of flying by the seat of your pants. Besides, some of the most romantic dates can transpire with very little money.
