4 Fun Date Nights For Those With A Competitive Side — Couple holding hands on valentines evening in a restaurant

Tired of the usual dinner and a movie? Shake things up with one of these fun dates that pit you against your partner. While you’ll always have your partner’s side, maybe it’s time for a little friendly competition for a change!

Mini Golf

I swear, it’s harder than it looks. Pop by a miniature golf course and show off those skills you acquired from those teenage late nights spent playing Wii Sports. Also, this is the perfect excuse to break out your preppiest gear. Go on, throw on that sweater set that’s been sitting in the back of your closet for ages. Bonus points for wearing multiple shades of pastel.

Rock Climbing

Easily the most active suggestion on this brief list, indoor rock climbing is bound to get your adrenaline up. Wear your sport gear on and get ready to sweat. Take an introductory indoor rock-climbing course and then race to the top! Loser buys the Gatorades.

Bowling

Give your date night a bit of an old school feel. Go to your local bowling alley to play a couple games. Throw on a circle skirt and a crisp polo to compliment your rental shoes and order milkshakes to go with your fries. Just don’t forget to bring your own socks!

Board Game Night

Okay, so this one isn’t quite as active as the others, but that doesn’t make it any less competitive! This date can be set up in the comfort of home. So break out that Scrabble board or that Jenga set that’s been collecting dust. Time to show them who’s a pro — all while in your pajama set.
