I never understood the "movie date" thing...

It is so... passive... Both sit in darkness and stare at a screen, not really romantic, is it?

When I still bothered I would suprise the girl with something active, paintball, gokart, dance class... The list goes on.


Last proper "date", I showed up at her door with a walz instructor, a pianist, a violinist and a cook. We had dance lessons to live music (lots of laughs from all involved) while the cook prepared a romantic dinner in her own kitchen. Worked wonders.

That might be out of some peoples monetary reach of course, but there are cheaper ways to come up with romantic suprises, heck, pretty much anything beats the cinema...
