somedude7 Posted May 28, 2008 Posted May 28, 2008 Hey guys, I have a 3rd date with this lovely girl on Friday night. I'd like to make it more special than just a dinner and movie (our first 2 dates were basically just dinner). Does anyone have ideas that don't seem too overboard, yet feel like I put some effort into planning it (which, I'm doing)? I prefer something where we can continue talking to each other (like a walk in the park or something) as opposed to a play or movie. But it shouldn't be corny or cheap either. This is in downtown Chicago and we're in our late 20's if it helps. Thanks!
