I recently finished reading Models by Mark Manson and I think the most innovative thing I learned from the book is his approach to Date Architecture. Manson says that a good date is built on common experiences and are active, participatory, and allow for touching and flirting. You also want to choose venues that are close to your house or hers, making it easier to end up there at the end of the night. He gives these three examples:

Meet for coffee -> get ice cream down the street -> check out the big swing in the park -> shopping at quirky book store Salsa class -> Drinks next door afterwards -> walk around neighborhood -> Your apartment Interactive Improv comedy show -> Walk through the local park -> Dancing at a lounge near her place

This for me (20M) was a huge breakthrough and unfortunately Manson only speaks for two pages on the subject. So I'd like to dissect this further to the idea that successful dates are successful because they are successful in relaxing, in touching, and in creating an experience.

So, r/seducation, I'd like to ask you all what your favorite dates are and why you chose to do what you do on those dates while loosely following the aforementioned architecture.
