Picture this. You finally get to see your long distance partner after driving for miles and miles. You both decide to go to the cinema. You've selected a good movie to see. You've got the snacks. The lights start to dim and you spend the next hour or so in silence. Does this sound like a good way to spend your limited time?
So you may be lucky enough to get an entire weekend with each other, or maybe just a few hours, however long you are planning to visit with your long distance lover, choosing a date where both of you are silent for the entire time is NOT a very good idea.
Instead try to choose some ideas that will get you chatting, touching and bonding. I'm certain that you can think of some better ideas if you really put your mind to it. But incase you are unable to, here are a few of our favorites.
Star Gazing
Get in your car and drive out 20 minutes away from the city lights. Lay a blanket down and bring some warm chocolate. If you're a tech geek, download an iphone application called "Star Walk" which lets you monitor over 200 thousand celestial bodies and has loads of information about stars and constellations. By having dates like this, it will give you both a great opportunity to talk about your future together and really develop your trust in the relationship.
Ice Rink
An outing to the ice rink can be one of the most fun of all. Chances are you will end up grasping onto each others arms to keep yourself from falling. You could fall over a little if it's the first time you've been skating. But even the pros fall now and then. Gents, please remember to give your sweetheart a hand when she gets up. And Girls, please don't laugh too much when you watch your man fall. This date can get really physical and pretty soon I'm sure you'll be pretending to fall just so that you can grab onto one another.
Hiking
Pack a picnic, a map, and go spend the day together in the great outdoors. Be sure to take a camera for those perfect picture moments, and remember to bring a makeshift first aid kit and plenty of liquids to drink. This can be a great activity to develop your abilities to make decisions and work with one another.
Tropical Aquarium
An aquarium can be a wonderful place to spend the day with each other. It will usually be quite quiet during the morning and you will get to see some really cool animals. You can sit there all day and chat with each other, learning about the fish, and also learning more about your partner.
Dinner Date
It doesn't have to be anything fancy, although it can if you desire. I'm sure your partner would love it if you prepared a meal for them. No matter where you decide to have your dinner date, nothing is better than eating with candle lights and flowers on the table. And gents, let me give you some advice. A woman will love it if you make a fancy meal for her. Pasta is my favorite. Just remember spaghetti isn't just for two Disney dogs to enjoy.
