60 Date Ideas For The Couple Who Never Knows What To Do
Oh My Disney

Do you ever look at your significant other and realize that neither of you have any ideas for what you should do for your date night? I know I do and it drives us crazy because we always end up doing the same thing like getting dinner or seeing a movie. So, in honor of Valentine's Day, I thought I would share some ideas! Some are tried and true, some new and adventurous, and others may be a bit unorthodox. Next time you're in a pickle and can't decide on what date night should be, take a glance at this list and maybe you'll have better luck.

Note: I didn't come up with these all on my own... I have Pinterest to thank for about half this list.

1. Karaoke!

2. Watch a foreign film and try to guess the plot or make up your own!

3. Make a mixtape/playlist together. You could make one for each other and then share, too!

4. Have a movie night at home, popcorn and everything!

5. Buy the biggest puzzle you can find at the thrift store and see how much you can do in a couple hours!

6. Make a scavenger hunt. You could make one together or make separate ones and meet up after you've finished!

7. Go to the park/playground and act like kids again!

8. Find a random campus event and see what it's about!

9. Paint pottery/take a pottery class!

10. Go out to a movie at the theater!

11. Brunch, because who doesn't love brunch?!

12. Do crosswords together! Or Sudoku or word searches if crosswords aren't your thing.

13. Visit an art gallery!

14. Take a brewery tour or go to a wine tasting!

15. Do a food crawl! Get each course at a different restaurant.

16. Make homemade ice cream sundaes!

17. Go to the beach!

18. Go rock climbing!

19. Give each other massages!

20. Take a drive... wherever!

21. Raid the fridge and pantry and have your own "Chopped" competition!

22. Go bowling!

23. Have a paint night. Get a canvas and some paint and go crazy!

24. Play games! Board games, cards, video games, whatever!

25. Teach each other a skill!

26. Go shopping and pick an outfit out for the other person!

27. Browse a bookstore! Leave small, kind notes for future readers.

28. Walk through a nature reserve!

29. Recreate your first date!

30. Pack a picnic! Eat it too, don't just pack it, it's more fun I promise.

31. Go paintballing or to laser tag!

32. Double date!

33. Have a photoshoot!

34. Go-Karting!

35. If you have one nearby, go to a trampoline park!

36. People watch and write backstories for the people you see.

37. Try a restaurant or dish you've never had!

38. Stargaze!

39. Build a fort out of blankets and pillows and binge watch TV!

40. Play at the arcade!

41. Geocache!

42. See a play or a musical!

43. Have a library day - find a book, then find a corner and read!

44. Watch the sunrise, then make breakfast together!

45. Go ice skating!

46. Find a drive-in movie theatre and see whatever they're showing!

47. Go to the range!

48. Take a dance class!

49. Try making fondue!

50. Go to the zoo!

51. Put googly eyes in random places around town!

52. In-state roadtrip!

53. Cook a meal together!

54. Do an open mic. If performing isn't your thing, just go see one!

55. Go mini-golfing!

56. See a sporting event!

57. Prank one of your friends!

58. Make your own pizza!

59. Chalk the town with nice messages!

60. Grab coffee!

Okay, now that you've got the ideas it's time to make a decision! Good luck with that one though; if anything is more difficult than coming up with date ideas, it's deciding on one! Happy Valentine's Day, everybody!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
