What are some great and original second date ideas you guys have had besides the usual dinner, bowling, etc?
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Great second date ideas?

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Comedy clubs!
But really I try and fit 2 or 3 locations/activities per date.

Tried searching through articles and tips, there isn't really much on it. There's mention of mini cart, amusement park, etc, but you can't do any of those in this winter season.
So any inputs from anyone?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

What do you like doing? Dancing? Listening to live music? Bring her in your world and do something fun, or just grab some drinks and bring her back like runner said.

This is after 2nd date but me and my old girlfriend used to go to a local arcade and just mess around on the games there.
Bearing in mind we were both 17 at the time though.
We'd start with bowling, then we'd do quasar, then move on to the games that didn't need booking in advance, pool, air hockey, interactive racing games like those skiing things you stand on, those electrick pole things you had to hold for as long as possible.
It cost a fair amount of money I have to say but once I'd paid for the first few things she would insist on chipping in.
And it was a lot of fun just messing around playing games and chatting, real ice breakers.
We used to do that quite a lot. Anyone know if that stuff would still work? (I'm 21)
