What does your girlfriend love to do? What are the things that she's interested in?
You can focus your date on the things that she likes to do and make some surprises. I think that would be romantic. Sometimes, romantic dates isnt just about the place where you went, the restaurant where you ate dinner, and the things that you bought for her, but it also has to do something with the things that you do for her. Things that she doesnt expect you to do. That's why you need to know the things that she likes and the things she's interested in so you can focus on making her happy. When you made her happy, she will always remember that date. I believe that when your partner is happy then you would also feel happy.

That's just great if you dont know her that much because that will be a challenge on your part. Do your best to know what she wants and what she's interested in. That will be more impressive on her part because you made all the effort to know her wants and be able to cope with it. I am sure she will really like it.

that is true. just be creative/indigenous in your date. just cater to what she likes and interested in. strolling in the park, beaches, anywhere which you can go as long as she is interested. cater to what she is apt to. and good luck and happy dating and mylotting.

Start the evening with giving your girlfriend a single flower. It passes the message to her that she is number one in your life. Then, help her with her coat (I love that myself) and when you leave her place walk hand in hand with her to what ever mode of transportation you will be using.
If you're going to your place, have everything set up at the table so you don't have to rush around doing everything while she is sitting watching. Have candles on the table so that when you serve her a home cooked meal you can sit in romantic candle light. Put music on really low, especially romantic music that conveys your message. Give her a cool drink (especially if it has been hot. I don't remember the weather patterns for your area- I lived in Thailand for 9 months but that was a long long time ago) Have a little love note on her plate, roll it up and tie it with a red ribbon (red is the symbol for love). When she sits down (help her with her chair) she can read the note while you're bringing in dinner.
If you can afford it, get her a little token gift to remember the night--jewelry like earrings or a pin. It doesn't have to cost a ton, it's the thought that really matters. Serve her the gift with dessert.
After dinner you can cuddle on the couch and even slow dance. Make the conversation about her and don't get into politics, religion or how horrible the day was. Tell her she looks beautiful and remember to tell her how much you care about her.
I am not a big picnic person, especially with the creepy crawly critters. I also remember the mosquitoes that would dive bomb me constantly. The other real damper on a romantic time is to be rained on during your picnic.
If you can't cook don't panic, there are some great frozen dinners that you can take out of the container and put into your own pan. But there are so many different things that are easy to cook and don't cost you your life savings.
Good luck!

I think that you could give your girlfriend a hand made gift in a pretty little bag. It could be a book mark or something similar that is quite small. You could meet your girlfriend on a palm fringed beach at sunset. Then you could go for a walk along the white sandy beach. You might be able to have a picnic if you meet an hour or two before sunset. I hope that you and your girlfriend will have a really romantic date.

Okay, I'll see what I can suggest here. I'm not really sure it's going to sound really romantic though because I don't really know what activities your girlfriend likes to do. I think that when on a date, you should have activities you like in common, that way it would be productive, fun, memorable, and can be romantic. If you're planning on a simple date, just bring her to a picnic. Prepare home-cooked meals and sandwiches, some chips maybe and drinks then bring a mat so you can sit together. I don't recommend movies, unless you both are movie freaks. Try visiting places you haven't been to, a simple ride on a bus can be a romantic trip as well. Dine in a restaurant you haven't tried yet, one that probably plays live acoustic music or maybe somewhere with a vies of the sky or the beach. Try preparing food at home and invite her over, some girls find that really sweet. Good luck bro!

I am a Chef by trade so I have always been successful at cooking for my dates. A romantic meal at home is always nice and keeps things cheap. Maybe a movie after dinner. My wife, who when we were dating, really liked it when I would spontaneously dance with her.
Good Luck!

I am from the Philippines as well and I do have a suggestion for you. I love cooking and this is one way of getting into a woman's heart. I suggest that you will look in the web to search for her favorite food.( Surprise her ) For me, it never fail but make sure that you will do it right so that it will taste good. It is cheap because you just need to buy ingredients then your good to go. Good luck on your date.
Remember that, the more simple the more better results. God bless for the both of you.

arreolabryan,
Here's a fact, if she has accepted you as her friend and is really interested with developing this relationship further, then any sincere thoughts or acts from you would move her.
It is good that you are having considerations for your girlfriend here, yet I hope that you would never do anything that is beyond or not really you. Being truthful and sincere will mean that you should be that to yourself too. I cannot stress how important this is especially when I see how often couples go on the wrong footing with their start of their relationships.
Frankly, you do not need to look further as thoughtful acts like picking her up from her place of work to send her home or accompanying her to work or window shopping or a stroll along the beach on a weekend or even eating out at food center ordering her favorites will be heavenly for her.
Just let me reassure you that your girlfriend will also appreciate your honesty especially where it is one that is to yourself. You do not have to go out on an arm or limb especially with how you handle yourself and your well being.
Take care and have a nice day.

I too were in a similar situation as you were some days before. I think by seeing others dating so sweetly, we too feel the same way. And I think you too might be feeling the same. If you have a girlfriend, I don't see why she is refusing a date with you. In that case, she either might not be your girlfriend or there might have been a row in between you. Where you live is not important in my view. You just need to be a lovely person yourself.

if you want a romantic date with your girlfriend at less expense. if you want you could have a candle light dinner at your place. if you know how to cook then cook some foods. the foods should be her favorite. there should be some sweet music that played while both of you are eating. if you dont like it. since today is summer here. why dont you gor for a swimming?
