Five Worst Places To Take A Date

On the first few dates, you’re trying to appear cool, sexy, together, confident, and fun. You’re also trying to make the other person feel as comfortable as possible. That’s why avoiding the worst Date Spots is the first step in smart dating. The following lists the worst places you could possibly take a date.

1 | A slam poetry reading.

There is a time and place for slam poetry and that is NOT when two people are just beginning to get to know each other. You'll get to know a hell of a lot about the poets, since it's a free for all share-fest up in there. This night out can end up to be a total disaster.

2 | Your amateur comedy show/rock concert/whatever.

Sweet baby Jesus in his swaddling cloth, please do not take your date to any of these spots. Because, well, see #1, plus the added discomfort of you potentially sucking. Such a bad vibe for a date, and a first class ticket to singles-ville.

3 | Fast food place.

For a fourthmeal? Perhaps. For the main dinner? Not so much. Greasy meals with a choice of a kids toy should never be an option when treating that special someone. Besides, fluorescents lights flatter no one.

4 | Your parents house for dinner.

Is there a more uncomfortable setting than sitting at a dinner table with complete strangers in their own house? Don’t put a date through this torture. You may have the hippest parents in the world. They may be intelligent, hospitable and interesting. But don’t subject anyone you just recently met to your parents for an entire dinner. Besides, your mom might just whip out the old photo album with naked baby pictures with you and your siblings.

5 | A tailgate party.

This last one is specifically for the gentlemen; For the love of God don't do this. Getting hammered and hanging out with your friends in dumb facepaint is not a romantic scene. You're basically dating the football team instead of the girl, so keep these types of situations for boys night, only.
