Friday night rolls around, and the pressing question is, “What do you want to do this weekend?” You need a great date night idea to get out of your date night rut.
If you’re anything like we are, you scroll endlessly on Instagram or Google to look for date night ideas. Maybe you have had a thousand dates with the same person. Or, it may be your first date with that special someone. In either case, you want to plan a date that's fun and different.
Still, the same restaurant keeps popping up on your feed. It's tempting. Should you try this new "spectacular" eatery for date night or do something completely out of the ordinary? You Google date ideas near me, hoping to come up with something romantic or fun - the best date idea you can create for the two of you.
Chances are you head over to the featured restaurant, and the rest of the weekend is the same old, same old. Planning fun date ideas to do for date night becomes just another task on top of your already very long to-do list.
Planning and overthinking can kill the romance as two people try to match their expectations for a fun, adventurous or romantic date. They must agree on the best way to maximize their time spent together. For many, having fun becomes a chore. Not anymore! Date Deck® to the rescue!
Rather than trying to figure out where to go or what to do, Date Deck® takes the work out of enjoying your weekends together as a couple. That way, you can save your time and energy for enjoying your date, rather than planning it. Think of it as outsourcing your date ideas. It's packed full of fun and creative dates.
Date Deck® is a 52-card prompt deck. It suggests and creates interesting and fun date adventures to do together for a weekend or week night date.
As in every relationship, each person has different strengths. Typically, it becomes the responsibility of one partner to coordinate something fun, hoping to get the other partner to buy in. You want the other partner to be excited about the adventure you have created for date night.
Date Deck® makes planning a fun date easier than ever before. Just pick a card from the 52-deck of cards and let the Date Deck® card guide you. It will take you, for example, to a new date destination or spark your adventure for that perfect winter or summer date night. Whether the prompt card motivates you to go beer or wine tasting, see live music, or try something that scares you, Date Deck® strengthens your connection as a couple. And it will nurture your growth.
Happiness has a multiplying effect. The more fun you and your partner have together, the more connected you become. In turn, the richer your life will be. Doing new things stimulates your brain, which encourages growth. This is growth both personally and as a couple. Growing together is one of the most important aspects of a healthy, thriving relationship. It doesn't matter if you have common interests. What matters is that both of you actively invest in each other and your relationship by being open to whatever date night idea card you pull.
The importance of doing new things and creating new neuro pathways.
It may seem crazy to say that Date Deck® can improve your brain function. In fact, however, there is a scientific correlation between happiness and brain function! Every time you do something new, a new neuro pathway is formed. Novel experiences, or experiences outside of habit, are particularly effective in creating these new neuro pathways. Every time you pull a date night idea card and go on a date outside your normal date night routine, you are creating new pathways. This slowly rewires your brain for happiness as a couple. Developing these pathways has far reaching benefits.
Ever heard the old phrase, "The more you do, the more you can do?" It's true! Every time you change your routine and do something different, the brain is forced to adapt. With every adaptation, and new pathway created, the neuro pathways of habit become weaker. This can improve memory and stimulate the pleasure center of the brain. Additionally, "novel experiences" release dopamine. This causes people to feel happier. Over time, consistent releases of dopamine cause us to become more motivated and productive. That's why new date ideas feel like you're on a first or second date!
The goal of spending quality time together, no matter what that looks like, is to show each other that your relationship is a priority that deserves time. It can demonstrate how much you value your partner and reignite the sense of fun and play that you had in the early days of your relationship. This can help to alleviate stress and also strengthen your bond, so you can take on challenges together more easily.

My wife and I have been happily married for 16 years and sometimes we run out of ideas for date night. This deck has made it soooo easy for us to just pick a card and go have some fun! I highly recommend this!
