100 Date Ideas For Any Occasion

Happy February, the month to spread the love! Valentine’s Day is only a few days away. I know some of us are starting new relationships, some are ending them, while others are trying to keep the spark or rekindle them. Since there’s still a pandemic going on, it can be hard to keep the love alive or to date. Today, I want to share 100 date ideas that you can do with anyone, even during a pandemic, if you socially distance and wear a mask. However, of course, there will be some very safe pandemic options if you’re still quarantining, and if you are, good job for taking this pandemic seriously! Also, remember to nurture all types of relationships, not just romantic ones!

Classes:

Classes are a great way to get one on one time with people you love and to be able to learn something new together! Learning a new skill by yourself can be boring or anxious, so inviting someone along with you can make things more enjoyable. You get to create an everlasting memory and grow as an individual. There are many different types of classes, but here are a few that came to mind. Even though Covid is alive and well, classes have been cut down in size, but there are always online classes that you can take!!

  1. Couples Yoga

  2. Dance
    You have salsa, pole, Kpop, Zumba, hip-hop, ballet; there are so many different dance classes you can choose from.

  3. Cooking

  4. Baking

  5. Pottery

  6. Martial Arts

  7. Meditation/Bible Study

  8. Art

  9. Musical Instrument

  10. Archery


Indoor Dates:

Since it’s currently cold outside, indoor dates are wonderful.

  1. Museum
    There are so many museums; art, history, science, Kids, Hall of Fame, Cocola, etc. Google which types of museums are close in range. There’s something for everyone.

  2. Arcade

  3. Trampoline Park

  4. Bookstore
    I know you’re thinking, a bookstore date? Yes, a date in a bookstore is very relaxing. Go to a bookstore browse the books. Sit together and read and enjoy each other’s company. Enjoy some coffee while you’re there and don’t forget to buy the books you think you’d enjoy.

  5. Nails/Spa

  6. Dinner

  7. Movies
    Even though most movie theaters are closed right now, some are letting you buy out a theater. I think that would be a fun date! If not, hook up a projector at home or see if there’s a drive-in movie nearby!
