Dorset Dating: The First Date

It's a good idea to start thinking about potential Dorset dating venues and ideas early on. Anyone you're talking to online will appreciate it if you have some good suggestions. Many a first date takes the form of drinks or a snack and Dorset is full of some truly fine places to eat and drink. A Gastropub is a cheery place to launch a new relationship. Enjoy a nice meal of kippers washed down with J.W.Lees's John Willies. It's great for a lively night out with a new date.

Follow up on your first success

If everything has worked out well for you both on your first date, it might be time to try something a little more adventurous than Dorset dating. Perhaps a day long expedition that takes in some natural beauty or sights of historic interest.

If your new date is a fan of the great outdoors then you could do worse than an expedition to the gorgeous Weymouth Beach, which stretches out a golden arc of shimmering white sand up from Purbeck and all the way towards Durdledoor. On the right day there is nowhere more romantic in the world. Get to know each other with a long walk and take in the stunning scenery. A long days walking can be one of the best ways to really click with another person. However, if walking is not your thing then maybe your new acquaintance has an interest in visiting historical places of interest? Christchurch Priory is set in beautful surroundings wtih views out over the bay. It's within reach for a day trip from Dorset and is one of the most extraordinary historical sights of the district.

Of course if the idea of a complete day together is still rather scary, there are always daytime activities closer to Dorset. Dating opportunities that you can relish with your new fellow sightseer. Devonshire Collection of Period Costume is a superb museum and always worth visiting again, if it's a while since you were last there. If the weather's not too bad, do a little circuit round Bournemouth Church.

Dorset dating successfully is all a matter of experience, so make sure that you are not put off by difficult or unsuccessful dates. Eventually you'll find somewhere in and around Dorset that makes for your perfect day out. Once you've found it, you can take all your dates to that same place.
