When you’re coming back alongside your ex there’s a fine line that you must walk between doing things the old way and making a fresh start together. Sometimes it’s best to part with the old completely and go for something completely new and different. Something you’ve never done together before. If you’ve already tried several of these things, skip those for making new memories together and avoiding possible stigmas or negative emotions tied to things you’ve tried previously.
#1 Rodeo
Relying on where you are in the world, rodeos offer a chance to cheer for the underdog, to make fun of the antics of the clowns, and the rush of adrenaline that often accompanies danger or risk. All from the relative safety of bleacher seats. Besides, what girl doesn’t love ponies?
#2 Sailing, canoeing, or wild water rafting
Unless you reside in a desert climate, the odds are good that there is some venue for one of these activities nearby. Water can be romantic and fun. The amount of time you spend together accomplishing this is the time you’re not likely to forget. It’s a great opportunity to spend time together, talk, or simply enjoy the ride- – and the company.
#3 Minor league sporting event
Skip the high cost and huge crowds of the average big league sporting venue. Attending a minor league sporting event allows you both to cheer for the home team without breaking the bank. More importantly, the smaller crowds give you time to talk to one another a little before, during, and after the game. You get the benefit of watching favorite sports, for example, hockey, baseball, football, as well as soccer, without the downside of big league games.
#4 Hot air balloon ride
Few options available to you are more romantic than a hot air balloon ride. It’s a great way to literally get above it all and see how small your problems really are from a bird’s-eye view.
#5 Roller-skating or ice-skating
Both activities are physical activities that can possibly be a great deal of fun, at any age, provided you both come into it with open minds and expecting to have a good time together. More importantly, it gives you the opportunity to hold hands, to talk, and to rediscover that “sense of fun” that flows out of relationships when times are difficult.
Great dates don’t just happen. They’re made. It takes more than a great location though making your first date – the second time around – truly stick out from the crowd. These venues are a great start, but it’s up to you to really make this date sparkle and shine. Get on your best behavior. Treat your date well. Avoid danger zones or hot topics. And remember to have fun and remind your ex why she or he fell for you from the beginning.
