I miss the dating scene . what i didn't miss is paying for everything.
If it is a first date don't take them to the movie. Movie = quite which = bad. Dinner is good plenty of time to talk. Do some kind of activity like bowling (what i did with my wife the first time), pool, mini golf, go carts, etc... something fun. Mini golf might be good, still have some summer time left (but i always went at night, it usually was better. The mood is better the course is dark with a couple of lights around. not to bight but just right).
