The Perfect Date

Recently, I was asked what my ideal date would be. Let me #expose myself real quick and say I’ve never dated anyone (big oof I know)!

But for some reason, I always find myself giving my friends relationship advice….I don’t know why either! People always say “the coaches don’t play the game” right? 😫

Anyways, I started to think about the advice I’ve given people in the past and what it would be like to be in a relationship. I thought about my “ideal date” and honestly, it was a super clear answer for me….that I didn’t care!

I think there’s so much pressure now, since social media is so prominent, to have the “perfect” date with everything meticulously planned out. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a sucker for those cheesy couples posts and can definitelyyyyyy be a hopeless romantic sometimes.

But for me, my perfect date would be plain and simple. Whether we’re getting coffee or having a moonlight picnic, I just want to be able to be myself. That’s it! I think the best date would be one where I would feel comfortable being me.

One of the best feelings in the world for me is how comfortable I feel with my closest friends. I don’t have to act or be a certain way, I can just be my weirdo self without judgement.

I know a simple date isn’t a life-long marriage proposal and it will inevitably be uncomfortable at first, but I think it’s an important thing for me to be able to be myself (as cheesy as it sounds) around the person…

…and if all else fails in the future, I’ll just sign up for the Bachelor 😉
