Is going to the movies a good first date?
Going to the movies can be a fun first date, but just like most basic b**** first date ideas, it does have some downsides.
So if you want to up your dating game and get better first date results, keep reading.
In this post, I'm going to explain:
And a lot more. Let's get into it.
First, here are the downsides of taking a woman to a movie on the first date:
You're going to be watching the movie instead of watching your date.
Basically, you're not getting a chance to create strong eye contact. Eye contact is one of the keys for creating attraction.
It's possible to sort of bypass that downside, though. I'll get into that in another point.
If you choose a bad movie, it's going to equal a bad association.
She's going to connect that shitty movie to you, and that's not going to be a good thing if you want to get a second date.
It costs money to go to the movies, and you don't have to spend money on a first date.
Besides possibly picking her up, if you're into that, and the time to get your tickets and get in line and then sit and watch the movie, you're probably looking at maybe three hours or more.
That's a pretty long date. But it's not all bad.
If you want to get the most out of your first date movie, then try some of the following:
You can put your arm around her, hold her hand, or even put your hand in her lap, depending on how comfortable she is.
That sounds weird, I know.
But basically, we all know that when you're talking in a movie, you're not going to be speaking out loud, so you're not going to be having a regular conversation.
With some distance, you're going to be leaning over and talking into her ear.
The great thing about that, obviously, is it creates more intimacy with your face being closer to her face.
You could make out in the movie, in which case you'd probably have a much better movie date and possibly escalate from there.
Avoid finishing it off with a peck on the cheek.
Why not invite her home after? If everything went well, the movie was good, you made out, or whatever, you whispered her ear, just go for the full meal deal.
So, yes, you can make the movie into a good date. However, I would personally skip out on the cost and the time involved to take someone to a movie and just invite her home for a Netflix and chill instead.
You can still watch a movie at home, and you're in a much better environment for taking that date somewhere.
