FIRST DATE IDEAS FROM MEMBERS

I appreciate a man who puts thought and effort into planning a first date. For me, a nice restaurant creates the perfect atmosphere to enjoy great food, have meaningful conversation, and truly get to know each other. I’m not really a fan of coffee dates or walking dates for a first meeting.I prefer something a little more intentional, where we can relax, connect, and make a wonderful first impression together.

Visiting a gallery or a cultural show, creates natural conversation, followed by dinner at a nice restaurant.

A nap… or anything active. I like to eat organic and do something fun. Mini golf, climbing, even just a walk.

I reside in Bellerose near the Queens- Nassau border . An easy drive for me, or train ride to Manhattan or elsewhere. Native of Manhattan and also find pleasure in the greenery of the mountains. I enjoy music (classical and jazz),theater, dance (contemporary and ballet), opera, art and museums.Enjoy evenings at home during the week and cultural venues on weekends.Subscribe to Met Opera, NY Phil, Roundabout Theatre, JALC. Member of Met museum. I seek a relationship, with an educated,cultured gentleman who has some or all of the above-mentioned interests. I am anti-Trump, open to conversations and concerned about the future of the world. Read NYT, WSJ and The New Yorker.Watch Channel 13 and BBC and a WQXR supporter.. Retired from a family service business. Previously was a freelance graphic artist. Have a strong background in artI I have travelled internationally to many countries in Europe, Asia, Cental and Sout America and Canada.Currently interested in seeing more of the United States and perhaps re-visiting the Venice Biennale. Fitness has been important to me exercising with trainer 4-5 times a week. I'm very healthy .No meds or operations. Young in body, mind and spirit. Kindly send me a Message,if interested in communicating not just a “Like”. Thank you.

A rooftop restaurant, an art museum, or a waterfront dinner where the conversation is so engaging that neither of us notices the time.

We would first go to eat, then explore the Arts & Culture, then we might go to see a Performing Arts, then end the night with a sweet kiss if we can, otherwise we would shake hands and say goodnight.

Let’s go see a theatrical show or we can go dancing or hang out at the bar and chat . I used to be a professional dancer in the theater show so I have a soft heart for all the arts and culture.

I would love to get a meal together and go for a walk afterwards to a musical or something like that I would also like some flowers please

Going to a broadway show or the ballet. Having a nice dinner at a private club and talking the night away and making jokes.

I love culture, music, art comedy clubs museums Broadway shows black ties events dinner shows how do you think that has to deal with performing arts fun to watch.

I'm weak for any type of live entertainment. Watching concerts, theaters, athletic events (football), plays, bands, musicians, cooks, street performers etc always leave lasting memories. , I just melt at watching people do their craft live.

Option 1: light dinner before an art event or movie and I walk afterwards to defrief. Option 2: you cook I provide the wine and we watch a movie (any genre - including documentaries). Option 3: weekend - we both workout meet for brunch and drink virgin margaritas by the pool until the sun sets. Option4: REPEAT

Well, I like the idea of candlelight dinner in the quiet place with a beautiful view. We can actually talk, but we have to have something to talk about so that’s why I would suggest going to some performance Theatre or art installation. Anything that we can actually talk about so we can understand if our minds match .

A play like a broadway show in Manhattan be super fun or musical or concert tickets ( Backstreet Boys)or as geeky as it is a science museum. Love anything with science.

Ideally, a really nice first date is watching a live show, dinner and going for a nice walk in a park or garden to settle the food and talk about our experiences.

I would like to do something spontaneous, something a little different than just a dinner date. Lets go on a boat ride, let's go on a road trip look at the world.

I truly enjoy spending quality time immersed in adult experiences, cherishing discreet moments and sharing life’s joyful occasions with clarity.

I’m equally happy dressed for rooftop cocktails with skyline views, Topgolf, or laughing through a couples cooking class

This is a toss up between sports and weird arts. Museums but like wax museum Lol. Illusionary art that makes us go, hmmmm. Opera, dance, Elton John

Maybe painting and knowing the calmness of the partner. We can surely take a bite after that. We can go with the flow.
