I guess the ideal first date would depend on the person I'm going out with. I doubt seriously if I will ever meet a woman who has all the same interests as I. So the ideal first date would be a place and an activity that we would both enjoy.

I think that coffee and conversation would be a good start. Maybe take them to go on a nice walk in the nice weather. First dates can be awkward, but coffee and conversation can be a real ice breaker.

Somewhere quiet where we can have a conversation without yelling. A patio outside on a sunny afternoon. Getting to know one another in person to see if there is a connection. Somewhere so we can hear the music but not be overwhelmed by it.

After we get acquainted on the site, I would like to meet for lunch and get to know each other. If you don't care for Mexican cuisine, let me know your preference, and we can arrange to meet at some other restaurant.

For a first date I think it would be great to go to Balboa Park - walk around some of the exhibits like the art museum or railroad museum and have some lunch at the Prado or something similar. Maybe later go over to the beach for a walk.

How about after chatting and we want to get together. Meet for a drink and explore out common interests and expectations. I am not looking for a one night stand but would like to have a friend for physical and mental fun

A simple place to talk, share and discuss things that are important to each of us (without people distractions or cell phone messages). To get a better feel about our personalities and compatibility. To better understand if common interests exist or have a potential in developing?

Depending on the common interest and connection, the following might apply.
Enjoying a healthy smoothie at a park bench or walking our dogs.
Walk along a scenic trail, a bite of lunch to eat, picnic is fine with lots of laughter and conversation. An evening at a cozy restaurant, conversation and laughter. Perhaps some hand holding and a fun place to sample dessert.
It's an opportunity to open up conversation, if specific questions are asked, rather than a universal question that my profile might be able to address.

I'm open to new adventures so give me some choices of what you'd like to do. Then we can make a plan. I'm not a morning person so walking and getting to know you in the afternoon or evening would be my preference.

Getting together over a cup of coffe and just relaxing and talking to get to know each other. Or walking through a park or on the beach. Being in a relaxed setting that allows both of us to just chat.

Dinner out would be great but brunch also a good idea, since i am not fussy, most any place we agreed to would work. i think maybe a nice quite place be good for first date giving us an opporttinity to talk

On our first date, I would be happy to share a cup of coffee or a meal to try to get a feeling of how things might go. I do not think any question is out of bounds. If we felt mutual attraction we could move forward as quickly as you find comfortable...

My idea for a first date is getting together for conversation at a decent cafe, sitting outdoors if possible, in the fresh air, no expectationss, no sizing each other up, just the two of us getting acquainted.

We could have a afternoon meal near the beach or on the river we could enjoy our company and chat and find out our interests our likes and dislikes maybe we could go to the movies or we could go to a concert or go dancing

Let's have a good chat over coffee and get to know each other. Take a walk, talk about life in general. What is your favorite thing to do for relaxation? Favorite food(s)? Best vacation you ever went on?

Meeting in a public restaurant for dinner and drinks possibly live music or dj. Sitting and talking just to find out about one another. If we click then another date. Then another and another. Then decide if we want to be exclusive, then committed then maybe marriage or live together.

If you could take an all-expenses paid trip anywhere in the world, where would you head first? Why? Visiting Rome and Jerusalem is at the top of my list, so I can visit the Vatican and the birthplace of Jesus Christ. Care to join?

How about lunch or a picnic in a park. Just getting to know each other too see we are compatible. Maybe a day out at the zoo. Talk, spending time together. I love the water, just setting watching a sun set.

Going for a coffee or lunch or dinner 🥣 somewhere romantic or a weekend away from the bustle and noise of the city I love Southport the marina lake cafe where they have live music if that's what you want it would be entirely. Up to you

I would enjoy dinner and drinks in a casual environment to find out a little about each other and explore compatibility and interests. My life is a fairly open book, so getting to know another is not an uncomfortable experience for me.
