Dating Ideas

Are you getting tired of the default "dinner and a movie" that we often resort to when we can't think of anything else to do? Seattle is a town with countless options to create great dating experiences, and it would be a waste to let so many opportunities pass you by. And sometimes you don't feel like going out and just need a few dating ideas to get the ball rolling.

Kayaking
There's a number of great places to get out on the water in Seattle. A great one for a Seattle dating experience would be Agua Verde since you can finish off your day on the water with an evening at a great Mexican restaurant.

A Day at the Park
Sometimes there's nothing better for Seattle singles than to spend some quiet, relaxing time together at a nice park. Go for a walk or picnic, or just sit back and watch other passersby. There's a number of places to choose from, including the Japanese Garden, Waterfall Gardens, and Golden Gardens Park.

Disc Golf
Do you like just going out to play sometimes? Disc Golf is a great way for you and your date to enjoy some time outside playing this unique sport. There are a number of locations around Seattle where singles can have some fun, including North Park and Lakewood King County Park.

Artwalks
Our online dating site was designed to help you find other singles who share your love of art, and in Seattle you can experience some great artwalks that will introduce you to some incredible local artists and the local area.

Proper Cell Phone Use
Cell phones have been the bane of proper dating etiquette. So rather than fight against the trend, use it to have some fun. Agree before hand to use your cell phone cameras to take a certain number of pictures throughout the date. You can then promise to send each other your favorite pictures of the date the next day.

Iron Chef, the Home Game
This is a spin on the traditional "dinner at my place". Before the date begins assign a random ingredient and a random portion of the meal to each participant (this is a good activity for group dates). Bring your ingredients to the date and see who can create the most unique, tasty dish.

Paintballing
What's more romantic than an afternoon of trying to shoot friends and acquaintances in the most friendly way possible? Paintballing is a fast paced, adrenaline pumping way to add some excitement to your dating life.

Video Gaming
Video games are no longer just for kids who can't get dates. More and more, these games are becoming the perfect choice for a fun dating activity. Whether you like the dancing games, the guitar games, or the games that involve small plumbers on go-karts, they are a perfect way to break the ice, laugh, and have some fun.

Tourist Day
Ever wonder why people are traveling thousands of miles just to see a couple of sights in Seattle? Do you avoid these places because they are "too touristy"? Take a day, and take a date out to see these sights and get to know a little more about your town.

Give Blood
It doesn't always have to be about you. In fact, some of your best dating experiences might just be the times when you go to help others. Giving blood together means you can save a life, and have an experience that will bring you closer together.
