A reader, anonymous, writes (20 October 2011):

To me all the the 'perfect date' needs is my boyfriend. Sounds gay, but it's the honest truth. I don't need a fancy restuarant, I'd much rather a night in alone with him, whether we cook together and play scrabble all night or whatever, I'm happy as long as we're spending good time together.

There is one date though in which I'm excited for and I'd classify as my perfect kind of date. It's one that my boyfriend dreamed and has promised me he's giving me, with a twist though he is keeping secret, but it includes strolling along the beach together, and then the sun starts to set he tells me to look at him, and I look at him, and he picks me up and kisses me. He then carries me to the car, running to the car, then sits me to dinner with mexican (both our favourites) and drinks. Where we laughed, and laughed, from the fun sillyness. Then he throws me down on the bed, pleases me till orgasm, then we have very intimate, sensual, sex.

I know that's only his dream, but he's told me strictly that I'm getting something along these lines very soon.

1sunshine agony auntMy perfect date was simple. We met online and talked for about a week before ever meeting eachother. We met at a bar/restaurant and had a few beers with appetizers. It was wonderful,very casual and nobody around us even existed...

A good date for me would be a weekend morning run followed by breakfast or a farmer's market outing. Or cooking dinner together and watching a movie on a weeknight. Sad as this might sounds, a lot of my dates have had a grocery shopping component to them. I'm a creature of habit...and the best dates I've had have meshed well with my established routine...in other words we do things we already both enjoy. I would go for things she's familiar with but amp the experience slightly.

She likes staying in to eat dinner and watch a movie? Then offer to cook her dinner and let her choose the movie. She like eating Indian food? Then research a great Indian restaurant and suggest you try it together. If you go for something too outlandish or opt for the fancy dinner routine you risk making her feel like she has to perform for the event. A great date is a date where she (and you too) feels like at ease.

This all depends on what your lady and you like and have in common. Good luck.

charliesdevil73 agony auntWhen my husband and I were just dating, we went out on a wonderful date that still sticks in my mind. He picked me up after he got off of work and took me to a moderately priced restaurant, not your usually cheaper place but not too pricey. He said I had to dress up, and I had to wear heels. He opened doors for me and pulled out my chair and even picked out a bottle of wine. Now, for the best part...after diner we went back to his house and sat on the couch watching comedy central and talking about anything and everything. We talked for hours until I realized how late it was and made him take me home. That is a date I still ask for since it was so nice during dinner and then relaxed and great conversation after.

PerhapsNot agony auntDinner dates are boring and a bit awkward because it's essentially putting two strangers in a romantic setting. I'd much rather be surprised with an unusual activity like paragliding, scuba diving, sailing or something exciting and new. If I had to do dinner it would have to be somewhere more exotic, like any Middle East restaurant with belly dancers, or something going on.

My idea of a perfect date is that first he asks me out. It doesn't need to be fancy. When he picks me up, he opens the car door for me. Then we go to eat, and like I said, it doesn't have to be fancy. Something comfortable and nice and not noisy, but not dressy. When we order it is nice to order something to share along with the meal, like an appetizer.

Then after eating we go do something fun. Like the arcade or mini golf. Not a movie because then you just sit there (at least not for a first date, but 2nd or 3rd dates movies are good,) but something where we can talk and laugh and have fun. Even like the museum or the zoo is fun. That way things come up naturally in conversation when you're up moving around, so you get to know each other better.

On the perfect date everything is going great, so he would hold my hand to show he's with me. And at the end get ice cream cones. And since it is the perfect date, there would be a small goodnight kiss. Just a peck. :)

A female reader, So_Very_Confused United States +, writes (19 October 2011):

So_Very_Confused agony auntoh such fun...

the expensive way:

1. he formally asks me out for the planned date...

2. it requires DRESSING UP FOR BOTH OF US...(nothing as sexy as a man who cleans up well in a nice suit)

3. it's on a Saturday night

4. pick me up at my place

5. first dinner at a lovely location preferably a classy joint.. say a nice steakhouse (and he should not be chintzy with the cash)

6. he orders drinks etc... we can split an appetizer and dessert...

7 after a lovely lesiurely dinner we should either go to a movie we planned to see or maybe out for some walking or dancing (if we are going to be walking please let me know to pack my flats to go in my purse)

8 if it's a new date he drives me home walks me to the door, asks to see me again and kisses me goodbye lightly.. no tonsil hockey on a first date.... if we are already a couple... he takes me home helps me off with my mink (yes I would wear the mink).... tosses it on the couch and then takes me in his arms and kisses me like we are lovers not like we are married....

and then.................. well that I will leave to your imagaination.

The cheap way

1. he asks me to join him at said event... hmmm things I love:

museums

picnics in the park

walks in a park

walks on the beach

heck window shopping in the mall (for later dates not a first date)

so on an early date:

1. ask me to go on a picnic or to the museum

2. pick me up on time please be neat clean and well groomed

3. picnic is nice... if you asked you could have had a basket made.. if we have been dating a while maybe we would pack the basket together...

4. a nice day on the grass, watching clouds etc... talking, walking (hand holding is important with walking)

A female reader, chigirl Norway +, writes (19 October 2011):

chigirl agony auntThe perfect date is when I get to hang out with a man who is totally awesome and makes me laugh for hours. A man who I feel can look into my eyes and see my soul, type of date. You said I could be clichè. A day with a man who gets me. Doesn't matter where we go or what we do as long as I feel a connection. Preferably the perfect date never end as we talk for hours into the night and fall asleep in each other arms, realize we are meant to be and see each other as often as we can from then on, creating a lovely relationship. The perfect first date never ends, it continues into a relationship naturally.

If you're just asking for factual great things about a date with a man who I do not automatically feel connected with, then I'd say.. politeness and cleanliness goes a long way. A perfect date with a man I'm not already interested in and don't really connect with, well if he could somehow impress me that'd be nice. Something unexpected or cool that I could brag about to my friends later on. But I'd absolutely NOT want a show-off with no real substance.

Hope that helps.
