Congratulations on the second date! Let's keep that momentum going by planning a fantastic date that will keep them coming back for more. Think outside of the box and woo them with a unique date that evokes them to refer back to this memory in the future. A new shared experience can strengthen the relationship while getting to know your date in other ways that may not be possible through a traditional dinner chat. The date does not need to resemble a rom-com movie, but when your best effort is put forward into devising a plan for the event, you may surprise yourself and feel like you're in a romantic scene.
Of course, you may have to conduct a bit of research and put in a wee bit more effort into this date than the first, but don't you want to leave a good impression? What if this person is the one? Thus, the research doesn't require any quantitative work. It's just about you doing some soul searching, thinking about what you love, and considering the other individual's interests. Plus, you have your community on here and Google to help you generate some ideas. However, to start your search, listed below are 10 innovative New York City date ideas that will keep things fun.
1.) Ax Throwing. A great way to see how competitive your date can be. Make a bet and see who can hit the bullseye the most times. Loser pays for the next date. Our recommendation is Kick Axe.

2.)Visit a Jazz Club. Plan a Great Gatsby night with your partner for an excuse to put
on your fancy clothes and have a slow dance.
Our recommendation is Smoke Screens.

3.) Spa day. Sit back and relax with your partner while getting soothing massages, man/pedi's, and a sitz bath. Our recommendation is Spa Castle.

4.) Rock climbing. A great activity to encourage trust while getting in some great exercise. We recommend Central Rock Gym.

5.) Pottery class. Skip the paint and sip and bond over making decor for the other individual to give them a special reminder of you. Find an art class near the both of you all to enjoy playing with clay.

6.) Dance class. We can all work on our dance moves, especially because some of us have two left feet. So why not learn a new skill with a partner? Even if one of you is a pro dancer, extend your predilection to the other so they can give your hobby a try. There are so many free dance classes around New York City or check out a few options in Groupon.

7.) Arcade. Arcades have a great combination of game and bar vibes that can cater to various interests. Therefore, if an individual may not be into playing arcade games, then you all can easily shift to a fun bar night. We recommend St. Mark’s Barcade.

8.) Karaoke. If your partner is a good singer, then you may want to skip this one, but when two struggling vocalists are singing over a song's instrumentals, an incredible connection will form.

9.) Street art tour. Head to Bushwick to discover legendary artists from the Historic neighborhood. While you're there, stop by the unique consignment stores and get an idea of their creative side.

10.)Silent Disco Party. Instead of going to a bar or club to hear loud music blast in your ear. Take a stab at finding a silent disco party. This way, when you want to chat for a little while, you can simply remove the headphones and have a proper conversation without music interrupting your flow. Google and Facebook groups may be your best friend for this option.
