Nervous about a first date over skype or zoom? Take a look through our virtual date ideas you can do from home…
Dating has changed a lot over the years and none more so than over the past twelve or so months. With lockdown, innovation has no longer been just a fun experimentation for singles, couples and dating companies, it has been a necessity. The ability to actually meet someone in person, has been completely taken away. We’ve been unable to catch eye contact with someone in a bar, to bump into someone on a dog walk, or get chatting to a stranger when you are at a house party. This has caused a huge surge in video dating and this is quickly becoming the norm for virtual first dates. If you have found your perfect match on a Tayside Dating Site or something similar and are looking for some fun virtual first date ideas, we have you covered…
A virtual Wine tasting
If you both enjoy a glass of wine or two, why not use your first date to learn a bit more about it? There are many online wine tasting events that you can sign up for that make for a perfect first date. Many send you the wine in advance, alongside tips for making tasting notes. You then taste the wines and talk about them together.
A virtual dinner
If you are both into food, then why not make your first date a cookery class? You can either sign up for an event or you can both follow the same recipe and cook together, via video call. Once you have made the meal, you can sit down with the laptop, ipad or phone open in front of you and enjoy the meal together.
A Virtual movie evening
Want something a little more low key? A virtual movie evening gives you the chance to find out the other person’s taste in movies – and see if you make a good match! You could both put a choice of film in a random generator to see which choice you get to watch, or you could take it in turns picking one. Why not get in some popcorn and drinks too? You can watch the film together and almost feel like you are in the same room.
A virtual museum or art gallery tour
For a little culture, why not partake in a virtual museum or art gallery tour? There are a host of events like this which you can find online. These allow you to walk through some of the most beautiful art galleries and museums, learning about them and seeing the different rooms and exhibitions as if you were there. If you love it, why not arrange a trip together to see it in person
These are a few virtual date ideas that you can try from the comfort of your home if you are looking to get into Tayside dating.
