Here is a list of the worst first date ideas.<\/p>\n<h2>A Wedding<\/h2>\n<p>Weddings are occasions where people who love each other invite everyone else they love to watch them celebrate their love. Key word is: love. Save this for further along in the relationship when those &#8220;when is your save the date going out&#8221;. It might be a good idea to know each others last name before you watch other someone take another person last name.<\/p>\n<h2>A Family Dinner<\/h2>\n<p>Keep in mind this is your first date, you are still getting to know your date. Do you want to get to know his\/her whole family on the first date? I think not<\/p>\n<h2>A&nbsp;Religious Event<\/h2>\n<p>Religion is a touchy subject, especially when you are just getting to know someone. A religious event may not be the best idea to get to know each other, and its not really appropriate.<\/p>\n<h2>A Camping Trip<\/h2>\n<p>Camping, or the great outdoors are not really for everyone. Not including the bugs or the non existent washrooms that feel clean, this is just messy.<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center\">\n<\/h6>\n<h2>A Shooting Range<\/h2>\n<p>First dates should be cute, and fun, and should avoid all controversial topics, gun control being one of these topics. A shooting range is probably not a good idea.<\/p>\n<h2>An Extreme Sport<\/h2>\n<p>Extreme sports are tricky, not only with the fact that you are cheating death.&nbsp;Jumping out of a plane is definitely not appropriate on date one. She didn&#8217;t put on high heels in order for them to be lost base jumping or white water rafting or whatever else people do when they&#8217;re bored and have little regard for their lives.<\/p>\n<h2>The Zoo<\/h2>\n<p>Now who doesn&#8217;t love animals, everyone right, but you know who loves them more, little kids and their parents. You really want to be one your first day with someone surrounded by a whole bunch of little kids, and lets not forget about the smell that comes with the zoo. Pick something less stinky and something with a smaller reminder of what could be your future.<\/p>\n<h2>The Beach<\/h2>\n<p>So the beach. Its a nice day and its right there. So what are you suppose to do, make sand castles together? I don&#8217;t think so. Sit down on the sat and talk, and then get sand in places you definitely do not want sand? Don&#8217;t think so.<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center\">\n<\/h6>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>A&nbsp;Movie&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>Well this is just brilliant, because you will have like two hours to really talk and get to know each other. No don&#8217;t think so. You aren&#8217;t going to get to know someone by sitting in a movie theatre where you can&#8217;t talk.<\/p>\n<h2>At Your House<\/h2>\n<p>Nothing tells her more that you don&#8217;t care, then inviting her over to your house for the first date. What are you guys going to play board games and are you going to show her\/him around your childhood home? Save the house invite until you know a little more about her\/him.<\/p>\n<h5>What are some other worst first date ideas?
