    Hey,

    Not sure if this is the right place to post so fell free to move. Have been seeing a girl recently, 1st time in a long time having been in a relationship for quite a while.

    We've met a few times and always just gone for drinks. like her alot.

    Anyway we have decided to meet up again tonight, but we both agree that we shouldn't just go to the pub again. So anybody have any ideas? thought of the cinema but is that just a little cliched.

    We don't really know each other that well having met only a couple of times so don't want to do something that seems to full on either.

    Any help would be great, thanks in advance.

    If you're in Dublin, head to the Palace, or the Hideout (if it's still there) and play some games of pool. It's fun, gets ye talking, you can 'let her win' and other such stuff. You don't have to drink, and it's something different from cinemas, cafes, etc...

    First thing, leave the cinema alone as both of you are just getting used to each other and sitting in silence for 90 minutes is a waste of time.

    How about Zoo, drive to the country, walk on a beach or some other activity thats near where you live.

    I would find driving around country roads with someone I do not know that well a bit weird. I am not the best passenger and if a guy was trying to get to know me and manouveur aimlessly around country roads I would be seriously uncomfortable. Also wondering if he is looking for a field to bury me in.

    Also as it is at night I don't think the beach or zoo are appropriate. The pool idea is a good one though.

    Pool is a great date! Get a cheapy bite to eat beforehand, or afterwards. Bowling is a good one too - nothing like a bit of competition to get the flirting going either :)

    How about a nice romantic dinner for two somewhere?
    It doesn't have to cost the earth, and without the lubricant of copious amounts of booze to ease conversations at least you'll have the menu and other diners to get you chatting.
    A nice bottle of wine'd help finish off the evening too.

    Have fun!

    Pool is a great idea. It's always good fun and it doesn't matter whether you're good at it or not.

    Myself and my OH found ourselves in a drab hotel in the ar5ehole of Spain once for a night. We were thinking what the hell will we do for the evening and then we spotted a pool table in the bar. We played for about 3 hours until dinner and had such a laugh.
