Planning a date doesn't have to be a production, but it should have some thought behind it. A lot of my guy friends would get really excited for their date, but then always end up pulling from the same grab bag of dates they always did. If you're going to ask a girl out you should plan something that shows you're actually excited to be there with her. It doesn't take much, just a little pre-planning. That's where this book comes in.It can be hard coming up with a good date on your own. The lines between trite, original, and tried-too-hard are painfully thin, which is why I compiled my best dates in this book. They're probably not what might come to mind right away when planning a date, and that's the point. There are a variety of different ideas that cover a lot of Boston, and a lot of them are adaptable to whatever location works for you. I came up with these ideas from dates I went on or from friend dates, and the reason they work is because they're all things you could do with a friend and they'd still be the fun. That's the trick. You may click, and you may not. But if you take the weight off and approach it like you're just going to hang out, at least you'll have a good time.So take these ideas, do the leg work and forethought required of a good date, and make it yours. You don't have to tell her I'm providing you with the idea, because you're making it happen.
