spjunkies Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I took a girl out to Lucky Strikes last Friday and I guess that went pretty well since she was crazy enough to want a second date. The only thing is that it's going to be a little difficult because she's from D.C. and I normally don't date girls from this area so that eliminates the museums and normal cheesy things like that. The place has to be metro accessible and I'd prefer not to spend more than $70 between the two of us. Normally I'm pretty good at coming up with these things, but my brain is not helping me at all this time :doh: So I turn to the only people who's opinion I value Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boysetsfire Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 With my current girlfriend, we just went out for dinner and a movie. Afterwards we went to grab a couple of drinks at bar to talk it up. Of course she is very laid back and chill so it worked out perfect. Edit: I think between us it was less than $70 for the night.

spjunkies Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 With Google, anyone can be a Chef. Very true. The only problem is that her parents are chefs soooo whatever slop I come up with probably won't look too good in her eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MumboSauce Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 cooking someone dinner is a bit much for a 2nd date imo. That comes later. It is a nice/impressive thing to do though. Bowling is a good first date because you're actively doing something where conversation isn't forced...that was a good move. Movies are bad because you really can't talk at all. I wouldn't really say museums are "cheesy" even if you're from D.C. The Spy museum for instance. I just came across this article the other day though..there may be some ideas in there you could use. http://www.marieclaire.com/sex-love/relationship-issues/articles/cheap-date-ideas watch the slides. Some of them were kinda lame..but a few could be useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fire5man80 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 National Harbor let her shop and check out the sites and take her to dinner. McCormic and Shmiks (sp) isnt too expensive. But theres a pot bellys if you really looking to be thrifty lol. Take a bus to the harbor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wysknz1 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I went on a 2nd date to the Denver Botanical Gardens, many many years ago, It worked great. Time to talk while driving. It's 100 miles from here to there and it was nice walking around the flowers, trees etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueinBuf Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Depending on what she likes, picnic in a park on a nice day is usually good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulane Skins Fan Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Royal Palace is near Dupont metro. Seriously though, Jazz in the Garden is money. Take a bottle of wine down there and then grab a late dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a bottle of wine down there and then grab a late dinner. Oooh I like this idea. So they just let you roll in there with a wine bottle? no problems? Take her to a Nats game. I was thinking of this, but those losers are out of town for like a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickalino Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I swear this **** could only happen to me :doh: I KNEW something was missing from the date, when you posted in the Random Thought Thread that the date went well, but you posted it at like 730pm. I was thinking, "Couldn't have been THAT great, if you're back so early on a Saturday nite" :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassow Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 You could take her to TopGolf in Kingstowne...assuming you have clubs. It's not walkable from the metro, but you could take a cab from Van Dorn St or Franconia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redskins cost $$$ and to be honest I'd prefer not to be around the drunks that occupy that stadium in Raljon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
