First date

I was 19 and it was a double date. This is a good question because when I think back, I really don't recall going on a lot of dates. I'd hang out with friends who'd happen to invite other friends over, who'd just happen to be guys. lol But even that didn't happen often because I was never very social. That's my personality and I'm happy with it but for mostly everyone else, I think it is good to go on a lot of dates to meet a potential mate or get to know the one you're with better before getting serious.

I was 16 when I had my first date. Many girls were dating younger than that, and there were girls that didn't date until they were older.

I was 18 when I went out on my first Single date. I used to hang out at my 1st guy I liked sisters house every Sunday and we even double dated with them a couple of times, and such. It was quite interesting looking back as there was always the safe guard more than when you single date.

I guess for me it really depends on what you would consider to be a date. I started seeing the first guy that I was ever with when I was nineteen years old. However, though the two of us spent a lot of time together, I wouldn't really say that we ever went on a real date. So, my first real date would have been about 14 months after that when Donnie and I broke up and I started seeing Mike. Mike actually took me out of my first date where he bought me dinner and then took me to a movie.

I was 17 when I first met my boyfriend and started going out with him. Its probably better to start dating when you're older and are a little smarter and ready to have an actual relationship with someone.

I did not have a girlfriend when I was in school and so my first dating experience was in my first year of college.. I was 18 at that time and we had just started seeing each other and I took her to a small eatout next to her place.. We are now engaged and about to get married this year end and the eat out still remains one of our favorite places to visit.. Cheers

Well, if I count the "play date", I probably was around 8... I remember teacher had us in couples for some project... We were goofing around in class & got in trouble... We were in "time out" together & she said "What are you doing after this?". We started laughing & we ended up walking home together... When we got to her house, she said, "Hold on a minute...", then she runs inside... I can hear her yelling out to her mom, "Mom...!!! Could you take us to icecream place? We're still on time out date...". Her mom called my mom to make sure it was ok & off we went to finish out date... Looking back on it, I thought it was cute... I did start seriously dating around 6 but I don't remember my first date...

Im not sure how old i was on my first date but i know where i went, what movie i saw and which boyfriend i went with. I was either 14 or 15 years old and we went to the movie theater and there was no one really else in there and we saw the movie Glitter with Mariah Carey in it. Weird how i remember things but i still see him around today and i can see what he is up to on facebook and i enjoy still being able to see what hes doing of course. Well of course waiting till your older is i guess somewhat better if you think you arent ready when your younger and you might be wiser and more intelligent then of course too. I of course likes boys and wanted to go out and be with my boyfriends all the time.

It depends on what you mean by a date. I was nine when I started a relationship with a boy five years older than I was, and we dated for five years, but we hid it from both our sets of parents so we never officially had a night out or a date. Three years after we went our separate ways, I started dating another boy and went out on a few dates with him (to see an ice-structure festival, to go DJ-ing with him and his father, etc.). Later that year, I met the man who is now my husband, so we've been on quite a few dates! I'm not going to say the older the better, since so many people tried to tell me I was too young when I started dating my husband, and I still know to this day that they were speaking of the majority of sixteen-year-olds and could not have known about my personal maturity level. Still, there is nothing wrong with waiting until later on to start dating, and quite honestly, I'd recommend it. I have a fading relationship with my best friend, who is 24 now and still does not seem ready to date, yet she's expecting a baby with her boyfriend. My uncle is past 40 and still isn't mature enough to date. And, after growing up with both my mother and father, I'd venture so far to say that my mother wasn't ready for a relationship (and, after the divorce, still isn't). On an ending note, it normally depends on the person, but in general the later the better. There are too many kids trying to be adults when they aren't ready, having babies in high school, etc. One last thing: if you are going to start dating young, don't get physical. As young as I dated, I saved my virginity for marriage, and it was one of two best decisions of my life. No comparisons, no STDs, no heartache, no memories of other people...I would highly recommend it.

I really can't remember what was my age when I had my first date. This needs recalling =). At any rate, I would agree with what you said that dating is better done when both parties are mature enough to know.

I think I'm gonna be 25 when I go for a first date. I haven't dated ever, but I'm not ready still ready yet. I'm 20 now, and if that's old, I don't what what's 25!!!

i was 19 when i went on my first date.and before that i am busy in my studies .there was no time for girls.and after first date everything reversed.now i am always available for date ha ha ha. but i think my decision was correct. now everything is in my control there is no problem at all about the carrier.i am cleaver huh?

Hi Shybear88, I just couldn't remember what was my first date or where did we went back then. I guess, I wasn't into dating before because I am really afraid of my parents. My parents were really strict that I couldn't get out of the house while I was still in high school. When I went to college, things seemed similar as well. Anyways, maybe I went to the mall and just walk around. Or maybe not because I was afraid that my parents or somebody who knows me will see me in there. And right now that everything is OK, things are going well..and I tend to watch movie or even go malling. And I am happy that things are really OK. Have a nice day!

Well good for you. But as i remember my first date it's a little bit odd for me. Cause I don't know what to do. It's kind a funny though. But it's a good experience somehow.
