Date Ideas for Winter
Try: Ice Skating

It doesn't get much more romantic-comedy-level adorable than ice skating now, does it? Skill level doesn't matter -- more adept couples can spin their way through figure eights and impress each other with fancy footwork, while beginners can wobble across the ice together (holding hands, of course). Oh, and bonus? Hot cocoa break for when your fingers get too cold/your ankles get too tired!

Date Ideas for Foodies
Try: A Farmer's Market

It may not sound romantic, but a farmer's market can actually make for a decent date idea -- think about it, you'll be outside in the fresh hair, and you'll be surrounded by good food. Plus, if you're lucky, your farmer's market may even have its own live music.

Date Ideas for Water Lovers
Try: Water Sports

It's always fun to do something active, and heading out to your nearest body of water makes for a nice change of pace. Stand-up paddle-boarding is a great core workout, while a kayak ride could be very relaxing. Things like surfing and jet skiing are great for thrill-seeking couples, while a nice turn around the lake in a kitschy pedal boat could be a romantic way to spend time together.

Date Ideas for Gourmands
Try: A Cooking Class

Do you love food? A cooking class date might just be in order. Cooking classes are surprisingly fun, and as a bonus, you'll get to learn some new skills (and eat some good food) along the way. If you and your partner are gastronomically inclined, this might just be your perfect date! Pro tip: look for deals on Groupon or Living Social.

Date Ideas for the Young at Heart
Try: An Arcade

Retro arcades are becoming cool again --- and, come on, who doesn't have a soft spot in their hearts for classic arcade games (Skee-Ball, anyone)? Whether it's Asteroids, Ms. Pac Man, or a real live pinball machine, you'll have plenty to keep yourselves occupied on date night. And hey, a little friendly competition can't hurt, right?
