4. Be fun-loving.

8. Wear cologne (Unless we're allergic).
9. Make us feel attractive and important.
10. Fresh breath is a must! Always brush your teeth before coming to visit us. Simple chronic halitosis is offensive. No one is safe--use protection; keep mints or gum handy.

29. Surprise us.

38. If you can sing, serenade us.

    Relational Dates Some of these date you may consider silly, but read through, and see what you think. I will be adding more ideas, so check back often.
    Here's a list of dates that are:
    • Out of the ordinary
    • Inexpensive
    • Promote Communication
    1. Test-Drive Cars-- Dress up and hit the new and used car lots.
    2. Water Fountain Tour-- Locate indoor and outdoor water fountains in your area. Get a roll of nickels or pennies and go with another couple to the fountain to pitch coins and make wishes (out loud!).
    3. $ 2 Shopping Spree-- Go on a double date to a shopping mall. Limit your budget to $ 2 each, then find a gift for your date for that amount. Guys with guys, girls with girls. Everyone meets in 30 minutes to give their gifts.
    4. Lights, Camera Action!-- This would be great for a double date. Get a camcorder and videotape. Go to a library and find a good short story. Have both couples read the short story and then make it into a movie. Watch it and have popcorn and soft drinks.
    5. Sunday School Switch-- Together, offer to substitute teach for an elementary school Sunday school class. You'll get a sense of your date's Christian maturity, and you'll see how much he or she cares for children.
