What's the best date you've ever been on?

Resident Evil 4 (I think it was 4). lol. I can't remember much of the movie. ;p

I had some great ones.  Two stand out.  On two occasions my date picked me up for dinner and drove to the airport where we were flown, once to New Orleans and once to Atlanta, for our dinner date.  This man and I were great friends for years, but alas he wanted to marry.  He had custody of his delinquent children and there was no way.  He and I never lost touch until about a year before he died when I moved out of state.  I didn't know he died until about a year after.  I'm still sad that he was so ill and I will always miss him being in my world.

Pretty much all my best dates were with the man who later became my husband. back then we lived in Sydney.

He was, still is, a lover of most of arts but particularly world music, dance and performance. His pattern as a bachelor was to scan the ads for what’s on every Friday - inevitably finding five or six events he was interested in and then have awful quandaries about which he would choose. But for some odd reason I never have any trouble knowing what I prefer in an instant and at least one of his choices would always appeal to me. I think that’s a key factor in relationships. When you discover that you share similar values and tastes you have a foundation for compatibility.

Anyway, his solo bachelor habits made him a natural for dinner and a night out, and after about six months these were followed by a leisurely morning in. We went dutch; taking equality in all things for granted. There were great moments. Like one time when we happened to be passing a Women-Reclaim-the-Night march, and a bunch of radical feminist lesbians threw their fists in the air and shouted “Yai, Ari!” knowing that he was a man who favoured their causes.

 

Here’s one that stands out in my memories. I guess at the time we had been dating for about two years.

When I arrived at his place, the front door was open and the table was set with fresh roses from the back garden, lit candles, sandalwood incense and an Indian sunset raga playing in the background. He had steamed brown rice with fresh vegetables and ginger and served them with fried tofu, tamari, and roasted sunflower seeds. We were supposed to be quick because we had tickets for a concert at the Opera House, but we got carried away chatting about our day, our friends and the news.

He drove far too fast to find a parking place by the Domain. We ran through the Botanical Gardens where the fig trees and flying fruit-bats were silhouetted against a huge orange moon. One tree was so beautiful we stopped laughing and breathless against its trunk, in the hard comfort of the giant folds in its buttress roots. I couldn’t resist the moment and raised my full length skirt to invite him in.

Then we raced again and arrived last to be seated. The hors d’oeuvre was Bach’s sonata in G minor H for oboe and harpsichord, the main course, Sir Charles Mackerras conducting the Sydney Symphony Orchestra playing Debussy’s L’Apres-Midi d’un Faune. It all sounded like bliss.

Back at his place again, a hot chocolate before bed and chatting about it all.

Then in the morning, the sun poured through his bedroom window, made the world shine gold, and I loved the sight and smell and feel of him. When I closed my eyelids it shone vermilion. We made love, mutual, slow, leisurely, sensuous, generous, till we were sated and exhausted.

Energies soon revived, we walked to Bondi Beach for a swim, followed by percolated coffee, almond croissants, fresh orange juice in a cafe with long discussions of the polemics of the latest news in the Saturday Morning Herald.

Umm....I was In a relationship pretty young so the only good dates I really remember were from just before I became official with my now ex wife.
I was dating her and her roommate separately and together a few times.
I was friends with both of them so it wasn't really too weird, but there was a bit of tension between the three of us.
I wasn't having sex with either of them at the time so we would go to the movies and I sat between them and I would sleep in bed with them too.
So going to the movies in my truck with two cute chicks and sleeping in bed with them, but only holding one of them is my favorite date or couple dates. : )

It was the first time I met a woman from the internet. I didn’t have a computer but my phone had a chat room on it. There was a woman called lonelylady. We were chatting all that evening and arranged to meet up the next day. I was 19 and she was 27. When I got to her place it was a bit awkward at first, but once we got chatting we got on great. I went to the shop and bought some wine. After a few drinks she disappeared into her bedroom, when she came back she was wearing just high heels. Good times

"July 4, 1988"  ... my divorce became final and Independence Day too!
                           It doesn't get any better than that!!

I've had other good dates but the best date that I've ever been on was my very first one ever. She was a real sweetheart and pleasure to be with. We dated throughout the Summer and was perhaps some of the best times of my young life. She was my first love and I had great respect for her. My heart was broken when she broke up with me. I was hurt and angry but found out later that she didn't break up with me because of something I did. It was because she found someone she like much better and is still married to him after all of these years. She holds and always will hold a special place in my heart.

No good dates. None. The problem is I am too cheap. However, I did manage to steadily date my current spouse who was pleased to have a date who actually had a real job.

never been on a date, guys wont ask me out and i have no idea why
