Find and Restore
This is a two part date, which is perfect if you get along on the first one. This way the second date is already a given. For part one, you simply spend the day searching flea markets and garage sales until you find a great piece of furniture to restore. For part two, you get together again and buy any tools, paints or whatever else you need, and then restore the furniture together.

MST3K, The Home Game
Ever rented a movie that you heard was good but ended up being less than you expected? This time go out with the intention of finding the worst movie you can. Cuddle up and see who has can make the other laugh as you ridicule the movie to pieces. You may need a full bucket of popcorn for throwing at the screen.

Give Blood
Do something a little noble. Give blood, save a life. And maybe even get a free cookie.

Video Games
Video games are no longer just for the circle of people who can't get a date. In fact, many of them have become the perfect date entertainment. Dancing games, guitar games, and other “party games” are extremely popular now and are a great way for Houston singles to have some fun.

“Runaway” for a Day
This is particularly enjoyable if you both ditch work to do it. All you have to do is go to the nearest bus or train station, pick a direction and go. You never know where you'll end up or what you'll see. Houston singles can have their own mini-adventure, getting lost and making it back home again.

Ice Cream Sculpting
At the end of a warm, Texas night, nothing hits the spot better than some great ice cream. And if you buy a block of it, you can use spoons, knives, and toppings to let your creativity flow and create and ice cream sculpture. A messy, but fun activity.

Go Boating
Houston is just 30 minutes from Clear Lake. This 2,000 acre destination is a great place to go and get out onto the water, whether you like sailboats, yachts, or other pleasure crafts.

Take a Camera Phone
Cell phones of the bane of proper etiquette. But maybe it's time to incorporate them into the date and have a little fun. If you both have camera phones, agree before hand to take a certain amount of pictures with them. The next day you can send each other your favorite photo or two. (This has the side benefit of deciding together when you can make your follow up connection.)

Tourist Day
Houston has many attractions that bring people here from across the country. Have you ever wondered why but refused to find out because the attraction was “too touristy”. Take a day and find out what everyone else is seeing.

Paint a Picture Together
Choose a subject, choose a medium, and your set to let your artistic side shine. There's no limit to the options here. You can take a box of crayons and some paper to the mall, sit at a table and start drawing everything you see, or you can build a huge canvas and let your abstract side take over.
