My last relationship petered out very quickly because we basically stopped 'dating' on our 4th date and ended up staying in, making dinner, watching television, being intimate and then falling asleep, and this was how our relationship stayed until it ended about 6 weeks later. I now know full well the reason it ended was because we didn't date! We became a domesticated couple way too quickly.
As far as I am concerned dating is a necessary part of every relationship, it's the part that gives you valuable memories and time to get to know each other in a fun and usually stress-free environment. And as weird as it sounds, I technically 'dated' every close friend I have because in the early stages of our relationships we would go shopping, go to spas, go to clubs/bars, go on weekends out of the city, go bowling etc.
So I'm just looking for ideas, they don't have to be romantic or anything, because my belief is I am trying to gain a friend as well as a boyfriend.
Here is what I have so far to give you an idea of the way I am leaning:
Go Karting
Paintballing
Amusement Arcades
Bowling
Fun Fairs/Theme Parks
Pub Quiz
Rollerdisco
