What would your ideal first date be (if you've never been on a date before), or even if you have, what is the perfect situation for you?

For me it involves sunsets, Spanish guitar (my favorite), campfires, open spaces and nothing but stars for company. What do you reckon?

I've never dated in the traditional sense, so the very idea of a first date sounds bad to me haha.
While not technically a date, in an offhand way this may fall under the label.
I once met a woman online. We got very close and talked about meeting in person finally. She had never met anyone from the internet and "warned" me for weeks that she'll likely be shy and not talk much when we first meet.
Once I arrived she came outside to greet my, looking shy as expected. But when I stepped out of the car, before I could even fully get my balance she charged over and wrapped her arms around me without a word. I'd never been hugged like that before.
When we discussed it later she said she it wasn't planned, but an impulse she felt when she finally saw me.

So if you want to consider that, loosely, a date, then that was a date that far exceeded any expectation I ever had. In fact it remains one of the best moments of my life.

My date comes to pick me up and brings me flowers. I get complimented on how nice I look. We go to a classy restaurant have dinner w/a glass of wine and chat a bit about life. Then if we clicked go to see a Christian movie, or for a walk , window shopping at the mall, people watching at LAX and things like that. By that time we both would know if it's on or not and take it from there.

When Daeda Mae comes to see me, all she can think about is hugging me. I'm thinking that's gonna be one of the best moments of my life.

Short, public, and coffee.
This is what I am thinking, too. Focusing on not being overly invested and seeing how things go. Not sure if I am capable of coming up with big ideas, but I would save that for later.

We went to an art museum.

Then grabbed lunch and went to a place with picnic tables.

Then went to guitar center.

Just a short date at the coffee shop. You will know during the first date if you have chemistry and it does not have to take much time.
