10 Thrilling Date Ideas You'll Love

10 Thrilling Date Ideas You'll Love
By · Updated October 28, 2020
01
Face Your Fears

You know that thing you said you’d never ever ever do? Girl, go do it, with your man! Fear brings people closer, and facing yours together is sure to make for a day filled with memories you both will cherish. Pick the activity together, then make a pact not to let each other chicken out until you reach the finish line. Need some suggestions? Go rock climbing, bungee jumping, or ski diving! (Yes, we’re serious!)

02
Take to the Skies

Take your love to new heights – literally – the next time you plan to spend the day together. Hop in a hot air balloon or a helicopter for the ride of a lifetime or maybe share beginners flying lessons. Our only requirement: Float high above life as you know it, and enjoy the view from the top.

03
Step Outside Your Comfort Zone

Go grab your bucket list and see what’s on there that you and your boo can do together. Go skinny dipping in a nearby lake or river, take salsa dancing lessons, go out to a wild and crazy club. Have you ever had your palm read? Whatever the plans, just let loose and go there! We promise you’ll be so glad you did!

Hit the Water

You know sometimes it is a good idea to rock the boat. Grab your honey and head into the water for some unforgettable fun in the sun. Not sure where to start? The possibilities are endless. Look out for things like jet skis, kayaking, white water rafting, or snorkeling for two nearby.

Treat Yourselves to VIP

Sure you’ve gone to a concert or club before, but have you ever gone first class all the way? Splurge on VIP concert passes or exclusive nightclub entry and pop nonstop bottles while you’re there. Yes it will cost a little more, but to be pampered and served on your big night out, is more than worth the money. Plus, you know that long line outside? You won’t be waiting in it.

Be A Kid Again

You know it’s been forever since you joined the theme park lines for a little summer thrill action. Make a date to head to the amusement park nearest you, and don’t you dare skip a ride. The bigger and the faster the roller coaster the better! It’ll be fun, just like old times, we promise. Oh, and here’s a tip: When you’re holding on for dear life it’s your chance to hold him close.

07
Take A Risk

Nothing is more thrilling than risking a little hard earned cash for a chance to win big money. Leave your inhibitions at home and head out to a casino or racetrack near you for an evening of gambling, live music, and an all around good time. Be his lady lucky or raise the stakes and place a wager of your own. Either way it’s sure to be a night you both won’t soon forget.

Have Sex Somewhere Unexpected

In the yard, on the car, in the bathroom at your favorite bar. We don’t care, just get it on somewhere you never thought to do it before. He’ll be in for sure, and the thrill of possibly getting caught will be all you need to spice things up!

09
Role Play

You know that really hot scene in your favorite romance movie that you always rewind and replay? Act it out together! Stop worrying about whether you’ll look silly and just relax and get into character. Lights, camera, action! Note: Filming is optional!

Do Something Naughty

Crash a nearby wedding reception, play a silly prank on your friends, sneak into the movies – whatever you want – just go out and break all the rules tonight, okay?
