[header] How to pick a good place to go on your first date [title] Think about what your date wants. This is important, regardless of whether you barely know him/her or have been friends for a while. [step] Your partner won't enjoy the date if it seems thoughtless or impersonal. 
Consider if he/she wants an involved active date or would rather do something passive, like watch a movie. [substeps] For example, if your date dislikes nature, don't plan a hike and a picnic.
