This girl, really likes me, she has told me.. a few times actually. She even asked me to be her boyfriend, i told her i liked her as well, but i said no i couldnt be her boyfriend right now because.. it would just be awkward, our relationship is 'weird' We talk on msn and facebook literally all day long! that's all we do, and when we arnt talking to each other there, we are texting each other, i literally talk to her 24/7 but.. we rarely talk to each other at school or in person! Since September, I've only hung out with her once at school, at lunch, we are both a little shy which is why we dont talk much in person.. which is why i think it would be a bad idea for us to be boyfriend/girlfriend at the moment.. We have gone out befour, a few months ago we went swimming together, with one of her other friends, it was a little awkward, but fun. A while after that, me and her went to the movies alone, it was even more awkward, and we didnt talk much (it being a movie) then just a while ago, in December we went Ice Skating together, i think that was the best time out so far, we talked and laughed a lot. But now I need another idea of where to go.. Swimming, Movies, and Ice Skating we've already done.. I'm sure we could do them again, but i would also like more ideas, i want to start hanging out with her a lot more in person, so we can feel more comfortable with one another in person. I'm 16, so try to make the date ideas not so pricey (I'm kinda broke ) And, i dont have my license yet either.. so, try to base the ideas around that
go to dinner. so that way your sitting close together face to face and basically have to talk. it could make you less shy if you have a good time and talk a lot
All those are really good ideas! Except, i forgot to mention.. I dont know if there an official name for it, but.. I have a 'fear' of eating around other people, not necessarily a fear..but, i get really nervous and feel extremely weird and uncomfortable, i never eat at school, or at friends houses, not even cousins or family members houses! (except my parents and siblings of course) and going out to dinner, and a picnik both involve that s:
I went on a first date where we went to a state park and sat by the water on a bench and fed the ducks...it was pretty fun
Hi originallymasked, Looks like you've been given some useful ideas so far. My first thought after reading you post was, just give her a call to chat for a little bit a light chat, ask her what she enjoys doing right around where she lives. Maybe she enjoys riding bikes or there could be a trail she walks sometimes for exercise, both of you could acompany with. Also if either of you own a camera or perhaps could borrow one you two could just take a walk and take turns snapping shots as you walk around. This gives you both more material for future conversation!:sunny:
If you searched the Internet for a bit, you would find literally hundreds of ideas, lots of which would be cheap or free. Be creative. It's very important that you like and want to do what you have in mind, then you will enjoy yourself and someone who is having a good time is much more attractive. One I used to like was going to thrift stores and trying on weird clothing, especially if you have a camera. Anything nature based is pretty safe. "Partners in crime" was also always a great success, basically do something naughty together (prank call, ding dong ditch, robbing someone's garden of some fruit, etc.. nothing illegal.) People watching on a busy street. Chatting with senior citizens. You said ice skating worked really well, not surprising. Something active will be great. I probably wouldn't take her to dinner for the first one. Maybe ice cream or a milk shake or something..
Was he 80? I'm kidding Op, a picnic sounds like a great idea. Don't worry about things being awkward, most relationships are kind of awkward at first, especially at your age. It's probably better that you both do your own things at school and whatnot, if you were hanging around each other all day you'd probabaly get sick of each other in no time.
just go for a walk. it's all i've ever done. i mean, it's all about talking and chemistry at the end of the day.
you should move 1000 miles away so you don't have to worry about actually seeing her in person. that way you can focus on texting and IMing, which seems to be the part of your relationship that works the best.
Yeah I know, it sounds like an old person thing to do, but we started off walking around the trails and ended up sitting on a bench and just looking at the water. He's an avid fisherman so he had some stuff in there for duck feeding...it was really romantic, actually...it was cute
And if I were to add to what TIB said... Go for a walk in the woods. Be around nature and talk about all the nature-related things with her. Actually, you don't have to talk about nature oriented things. Why not just go for a walk out in the woods and talk about the stupidest things you could possibly imagine? That's what great conversations are sometimes about. Remember, the awkwardness you feel is something you have to overcome. There's no shortcut. Communication is the single most important thing in any relationship. Ask her questions and learn about her, what she likes, what her hobby is, that sort of thing. Allow her to ask questions. Two-way street type interaction is the key. If you could do all that stuff, it really shouldn't matter where you two go. But still recommend hiking in the woods, lol. All the best.
On a date ... ? I hope so that my sensitive soul, will satisfy only with talking by river and smelling the Mother nature ! :love:
I'd be down with a girl that likes feeding ducks. It's one of my favorite things to do when I have moldy bread in the house.
