1. Dating For Fun and Love
Dating can be a fun, exciting and interesting way to meet new people and make new friends. However,
sometimes dates can be boring and awkward, and they often don’t allow for daters to actually get to
know one another. Dates that are most successful let both parties have fun, talk freely, and be
comfortable.
Remember that dating should be fun,
and never a chore!
Learning how to have fun on a date, whether it is a
first date or a date with your significant other, can
be the difference between a relationship
blossoming, or falling flat. We’ve put together this
selection of dating options to help your dating life
be as exciting and fun as possible.
1. Do something creative. Whether it be painting
ceramics, sidewalk chalking, or couples art classes, doing something creative on a date lets you and your
partner have fun while creating something unique, and getting to know each other better.
2. Do something athletic. This isn’t to say that your dates should always be competitive or require
significant skills, but bowling, golfing, or participating in a team sport together can help create a bond
between daters.
3. Do something educational. Museums, classes, and poetry readings can be a great way to do
something with your significant other while learning and growing together. This doesn’t mean that you
need to take it too seriously, have fun! Look around the museum for your favorite piece, and give
interpretations!
4. Do something delicious. Food is an excellent part of a
great date, you can check out a cool new restaurant,
discover a new kind of cuisine, or take a cooking class
together. Great food can lead to even greater
conversation, experiences, and memories!
5. Do something romantic. Sometimes you need a getaway
even when you can’t get away. Try having dinner at a hotel,
like Hotel Zero Degrees. Sometimes hotels offer dinner and
stay packages that are fun, romantic, and almost
completely planned for you.
6. Do something random. Spend time at a bookstore or the mall or even at the Hotel Zero Stamford
Boutique, find items that you think describe yourself, and your partner, and see how well you know one

2. another. Make it a game, and reward each other with something delicious or movie tickets for a future
date.
7. Do something outside. We live in such a beautiful world, chock full of ready-made romantic settings.
Take a hike, go canoeing, or play at the beach, but whatever you do, have fun in the beautiful world
right at your feet! Finish it off with dinner or a night’s stay in Stamford’s best hotel, or a romantic
evening at home.
Whatever you decide to do on your dates, whether it is at a hotel in Stamford, or in a cooking class,
remember to have fun together. Keeping it fresh and exciting is the most important part of dating. You
and your date should be happy and excited for a great time together!
