I actually like going out and meeting new people! The only dates that I hate are blind dates! I think it's the worst when someone else sets you on a date with someone THEY think is great for you, and when you actually go out with them, you can't believe how wrong they are. LOL! But I always try to be nice anyway!

I much prefer going out to bars and so on when it's still considered 'dating' - staying in comes later.

Dating to me = going out. I panic if I am alone in a house with a new guy.

haha, going out for sure, it'd be awkward to be at someone's house. Its much better to be at a restaurant or a show or something that gives you a commonground to talk about.

Going out. I find hanging out at home too awkward with a date.

Always go out on a first date. Staying at home is too much pressure to do something you might regret.

Going out for a first date, definitely. No staying in 'til you get to know him. You never know if he's a real weirdo or not.

When still 'dating', I want to go out. Dinner or a movie or even an afternoon walk somewhere. I just don't want to do the hang out thing because that's not what I consider a date. The hang out thing, at least in my experience, is usually with the hope on the guy's side that it will lead to something. I don't want to spend my whole 'date' nervous about keeping that at a distance until I'm ready for it.

Definitely go out!

I like going out when I've just met the guy but when we're more comfortable with each other I'd rather stay in and enjoy each other.

On the first few dates, going out is always a nice tension breaker. But after getting to know the person, quiet dates are nice, too! Mixing it up with a little bit of both is ideal.

Going out definately! I wouldn't feel comfortable in a new guys home, or with him in mine.

I love going on dates And maybe that's because when I go out with my boyfriend, to anywhere (movies, restaurants, museum, etc.) we consider it a date. On the first couple "dates" we had, neither of us wanted to really stay in. Once we got closer and everything, we love just having time to ourselves to cuddle up with a good movie.
