oberkeat Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 This will sound contradictory: I want a girlfriend, but I don't really like "dating". The standard "date" where you meet for drinks or coffee, sit across a table and chat -- I find it boring and forced and hollow, but, for whatever reason, I continue to do it, with indifferent results. Instead, I'd rather go to someone's house and hang out and watch movies or play board games (which is actually how my last gf and I transitioned from being friends to lovers). Does anyone else tire of the standard "date"? Is this the only way to get to know someone in a romantic context?
preraph Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Most women aren't going to be happy with a steady diet of doing nothing at home. They can do that alone or when they're 80. 1
Gaeta Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 I am not brining any stranger in my home or going to someone's house I don't know. With a stranger I am comfortable in a public place. I would not be comfortable in my home with a stranger. Going out on dates is part of dating, when you are in an official relationship with someone you still go on dates. If you are tired of the coffee date then offer something else like play pool, bowling, skiing, skating, many bars have boardgames, etc 1

Best for 2nd date+ I made a forum on this as well http://www.loveshack.org/forums/romantic/dating/511600-cheap-date-ideas
