A first date can be make people nervous because almost everything is new to them.
Even people who have known each other for a long time can find the first official date leaving them anxious because it is a new situation, a whole new experience.
To relieve some of the stress there are a few classic and not so classic good date ideas that are sure to be fun and stress-free.
Dinner and a movie is the most common and is a great option.
It allows for a person to ask someone out with something already in mind so that there's no hard decisions to be made.
Most people can agree on a movie and even if food is a tough choice there are a lot of places that have more than one style of food so that both people can be happy.
Mini-golf is another good option.
It is not quite the norm but it is a lot of fun and keeps both people focused on having a good time and not worrying about if the other person isn't.
Many mini-golf places also have some sort of food or ice cream as well so it can be a full first date experience.
Group events can also make a good setting.
Sometimes the idea of being along with someone for the first time can lead to unnecessary stress and being around friends can ease that tension.
A great time for this to happen is when both people are friends with the same crowd of people that happen to be having a party.
It is a good way to ask someone out to get a feel for whether they are actually interested or not, too.
