the perfect date

I was having a conversation of topic for this blog with my new friend about things i should write on. Haha. it's so funny to think that getting an idea is not as easy as writing this. But yeap, he suggested on writing about him. But dude, really? what topic should i take?

Suddenly i remembered about something. He was having a date a day before. And there. what's your definition of perfect date?

For some people, just be together with their dates can be considered as the most romantic thing. For others, it's not that simple.

Let's take the first case. A and B are just known one another, and since they haven't define their relationship, they both decided to take a step ahead and go out for a nice casual date, with dinner at typical restaurant, and spend the next 3-4 hours by watching movie together.

The second case will be when they have DTR, they step it up by going to a fancy restaurant, shopping together, cooking meals, and probably travelling together.

The third case when they have been in relationship for longer than what they could think of. Typically they both know what the other wants, hates, etc. So typically they need to romantically change their routine by visiting new places, what they used to call cullinary experiences, or double dates and rememberance the love they have.

These three cases are similar but different from themselves. Not to judge on the nature of the dates, but can we define the perfect date if they are so typically arranged based on past experience? Where is the spontaneity and surprise moments? Where the initiative of saying, hey let's watch tv instead, bring wine, i cook, or take-out, then let's dress like a prince/princess and imagine we are in a scottish castle with butlers and horses and parks and accents (o wait, ignore that. I watch too many british movies).

We define perfect dates differently. But the idea is the same. We want to impress our partner. It's probably not as romantic as we expected, but at least we try to romance it.

Even the simplest gesture and words can be the perfect date. So, grab your cell, text your spouse/partner, and say: hey, i pick you up now. Wear white cloth because you look like an angel on it. Or just simple one: I ..... U. U decide.

#I just thought this post is a bit romantically designed. My bad. I need to be loved. There I said it. XO
