A Sag took me to a dive bar yesterday... I was kinda tipsy before the date so it did not ruin the my time but I would be so pisssed if I was sober lol.
ime with sags I just can't be too sober with them..

I'm not fussy but idk too many people -_-

The romance factor was at an all time low.. I was talking to people around me and I lost my date a few times in a crowd and I was drunk and paranoid I got stood up wooo.. and this couple was trying to help me find my date..
It was a disaster..
WHY DO PEOPLE BRING THEIR DATES TO DIVE BARS?

Idk I like going to secluded places on dates
midnight hikes sober, arm and arm sounds perfect right now.
With that full moon
Who wants to gooooo?
boo

The great thing about hotels, is that you can get as drunk and as naked as you want! perfect date LOL

Edit:
Moon in virgo
Venus in gemini
Mercury in cancer

Id also love doing something physical during the day (mars in aries), a hike, a visit to an interesting museum, exploring the city together. I like it more when there's less planning and expectations and just light fun and good stimulating conversation, think its my gemini venus

A nice conversation where she doesn't talk about other guys, shows up on time and nice conversation where she doesn't give unnecessary ultimatums while manners and class are practiced by the both parties

I think my most perfect "date" was my libra s.o. who took me to the botanical garden, it was a nice weather when we arrived and it was funny watching all the plants until the inside glasshouse closed, and when we went outside it was raining:P But it was perfect because it was romantically and a little clumpsy, but very sweet!

I like dates where we have to do something active, I hate just sitting there and small-talk on a café, it's just not my kinda thing…

Me too. Actually went on a walk and picnic at night for V-Day. First time I celebrated and no complaints.(idk if it was considered a hike although it was close to a mountain lmao ). Lots of talking. I've never really went out on a date but this was really nice.

A dive bar doesn't seem very "date-like" to me. To each their own.

But I like spontaneous dates, eg, we suddenly decide to drive somewhere we've never been to before, or one of us has been to and wants to show the other. No pressure, no expectations. Those are the best "dates" for me.

This appeals to me as well. I've an 8H Venus, so any type of pressure or expectation makes me bail.

perfect dates include long city walks, nature hikes, camping (though not right off the bat), picnics at the seaside, anything adventurous. anything spontaneous. good conversation is a must! outdoors is preferred, but if in a city, anything cultural or artsy will do.

i remember one scorp guy asked me to come to a town two hours away with him. he had to go for some banking reason (which would only take a few minutes) but he wanted my company for the trip. i obliged. we had a great time discussing all sorts of things on the way there, ate at a great restaurant, then stopped at a lake to skinny dip on the way back.

now that i'm in a ltr with kids, going to dance parties is a typical date for us. we still go camping a lot too. but full on romantic dates, there isn't too much time for those anymore

cap moon, 8th house
cancer venus, 3rd house
taurus merc, 12th house

Most of the way through our first game he gets a call and says he's going to have to cut the date short. A friend has just died. I think to myself, what? Wait, am I on the receiving end of a first date rescue call? And to kill off a friend to do so! Wait, what?

Well, his friend & coworker had indeed died of an unexpected heart attack. I knew her somewhat tangentially. He doesn't know what to do...go/stay. I certainly don't know what to do. There really isn't a protocol for such things...is there?

He gets another drink and other friends of hers are there. As soon as you know people are crying all over the place. Then it turns into preparation for an impromptu wake. I left in shock.

So that is NOT my idea of the perfect date.

Undeterred, I a made a date with someone else a few weeks later. While no one died, it still went bizarrely and badly. I think I'll be staying home for a while. Venus in the 12th.

My perfect date would be NO date. Hanging out casually, doing whatever. Anytime someone says the word "date" in terms of "taking me out on one", I'm horrified. Too stuffy, pre-planned, just weird.

If we happen to be walking around and see a restaurant we want to go to or a bar or whatever, then okay.

One guy I dated (I met him on the bus, of all places) met up with me at a cool dive bar the first night we hung out, because we both lived in the neighborhood and I was going to be there with friends. We ended up hanging out with each other for the rest of the night, and going to his friends' rehearsal space to listen to them play.

That was a good date for me.

The next time we hung out, we grabbed some coffee and went to the oldest cemetery in the city with our cameras and took pictures.

I've been on "conventional" dates before to restaurants, I dont mind meeting conventions, but honestly the person expected me to be somebody I wasn't and give away too much info, information comes from experience not the first date so why should you rush? Seems some people treat others like packaged pieces of meat at a supermarket like "yeah I'll have one of those, with some of that" Go with the flow and be exciting and stop expecting too much ffs.

i guess i like to be a little mysterious on the first and second "date". whenever i have gone on a traditional "date" i feel like i have to say "THIS IS WHO I AM THIS IS WHAT I LIKE TO DO" but if im just meeting somebody for the first time at a place like a concert, you get to SHOW them who you really are instead of tell them. id much rather show than tell. makes it more mysterious and interesting, dont ya think? plus, if its just the two people on the first date you only get to see how the person interacts with YOU. obviously they are going to put on a little bit of a show. theres a quote, and it says something like "if you want to know the true measure of a person, simply watch how they treat people who can do nothing for them."
anyway, end rant. hope you enjoyed lol.

Some great quotes there lol. The last one is soooo true. I ALWAYS take note of how my date is treating strangers, people in customer service roles, etc. Even how they speak to their mother! It really says a lot about a person. If we are just hanging out and their friends are present, I like to see what kind of rapport they have with them too. It's how they relate more to other people than to ME that attracts me to them, funnily enough.
