It so happened that in the pursuit of wealth and social status, we often forget about ourselves and those little joys that make life more interesting and eventful. But in vain!

Ordinary going to the hairdresser or spa- a great option to relax after a hard week of work. Men won't give up visits to the bath or sauna.

When boring routine meetings overwhelm her (and yours too) patience, they come to the rescue - tips on how to spend a cool evening with a girl.

So much has already been written on this topic that sometimes you wonder. Guys with Internet access always have a whole network of sites in front of their eyes that advise how to have a date. In all of them there are a lot of options and ideas ... it's not difficult to get confused about what you can and cannot do.

It is important to be able to choose among the abundance of tips those that really create the desired effect.

Fortunately for you, I have selected for you several options for such a pastime. Well, as always, there were additional (but very important) rules that would be very useful.

Plan, but without fanaticism!

Making plans is good. Planning in life is 100% necessary.

But when it comes to a date, the exact plan can play a trick on you.

Girls are insightful creatures. When you have made an accurate date plan, then it is written on your face that you are tense and waiting for something. Every minute of your time you think not about how good you are with a girl, but how soon you will move to another place.

Besides, if you plan everything accurately, then any unexpected turn of events will easily unsettle you.

But “easy” planning is what should always be. Have a rough idea in your head where you will go first, where you will go second, and where if unforeseen circumstances arise (the girl does not want to go to the sushi bar or in the evening the places in any institution will be occupied).

The itinerary is also important.. Not only the places themselves are of great importance, but also how easily you will move between them. If going to a place on the other side of the city is a matter of principle, then try to take the lady there by car or taxi (you can also use public transport, but in this case you risk that the romantic mood will disappear).

Planning is good, of course. But it doesn’t hurt to have a few ready-made ideas on how you can spend an evening with a girl in stock.

Option number 1. At home

So-so option, because girls do not like domestic boys.

True, there is an exception: if until now she has not had a reason to think that you are “home”, then why not spend the evening at home?

The main thing is not to force the girl to watch movies, listen to music or drink coffee. She can do this at home too.

But if, along with the music, you dance with her, and chew popcorn along with watching a movie (playfully hinting that you can’t watch a movie without popcorn),. After all, how confidently you present yourself, it will be so interesting for her to be with you.

Ideal option - cook dinner for two. Find recipes for unusual dishes on the Internet, try to cook them at least once (both for training and in order to appreciate the taste), and then just make an offer you can’t refuse (by the way, this is a good reason to invite a girl home for the first time , though for this dish they really should be unusual).

Such a dinner will have the strongest effect if you have not arranged anything like this until now.

How do you spend evenings together?

Childhood is sometimes necessary not only for children, but also for adults. In fact, a little childishness can make a relationship happier and stronger. To fool around with your boyfriend, don't be afraid to be sincere and funny. Start throwing food or have a tickle war. Goof off by taking crazy selfies, playfully teasing and giving each other funny nicknames.

Steps

Tune in for childishness

Embrace your unique personality. To fool around with your boyfriend, stop worrying about what he thinks. Decide to be yourself instead of trying to fit in with a guy. If he doesn't appreciate your authentic personality, he's definitely not worth your time.

Live in the present. Part of childishness is total immersion in the present moment. Instead of worrying about being funny or saying the right things, focus on having a great time with your boyfriend.

Be spontaneous. If you just need to do something stupid, do it right now. After all, childishness means letting things take their course. The longer you wait, the more likely you are to hold back. Wake up your funny inner child who doesn't care what others think.

• If you're sitting by a lake, start splashing!
• Suggest an impromptu game of hide-and-seek or catch-up.

1. Don't take everything too seriously. Of course, there are times when you need to be serious, but sometimes you can laugh and fool around. Not every conversation with a guy needs to be deep and emotional. Goofy and carefree interactions are also important for strong relationships.

   • Also, don't take yourself too seriously. It's okay to be stupid sometimes. In fact, it can actually be quite fun!

   Play games

   1. Set up a wrestling match. Challenge your boyfriend or surprise him from behind! Have fun, but keep the fight under control. You don't want to really hurt each other.

      • Pretend you're fighting in a specific fighting style like boxing, martial arts, or sumo. Take turns declaring a fight.
      • If your boyfriend is much stronger than you, set a few rules to even the odds. For example, he can "fight" with one arm behind his back.

   2. Plan a surprise pillow fight. The next time you're lounging on the bed or couch with your boyfriend, grab a pillow and hit him. Before you know it, a full-scale pillow fight will begin.

   3. Throw a dance party. Turn on your favorite songs and rock! You can start a childish couple dance or arrange a dance duel. Don't be afraid to show class with all your hilarious dance moves.

      • Try playing a dance video game together, like Dance Dance Revolution or Just Dance.
      • Watch videos of professional dancers and try to copy their crazy moves. Make your mark on Dancing with the Stars and let the fun begin!

   4. Play with food. When baking cookies in the kitchen with your boyfriend, blow some flour on his nose. After he blows flour back, toss a couple of chocolate chips at him. And let the food battle begin!

      • Play food catching: you toss some gummies or grapes to the guy, and he has to catch them in his mouth.

   5. Start a tickle war. Suddenly provoke a guy in the middle of the movie and start a tickle war! In a few seconds, you'll both be doubled over with laughter.

      • Find his most vulnerable spots. Try the ribs, abdomen, armpits, and even the feet.

   play the fool

   1. Give him a funny nickname. The options are endless. You can choose a nickname that reflects his funny habit, or one that doesn't fit him at all.

      • If your boyfriend is just obsessed with Star Wars, call him Chewbacca.
      • If your boyfriend is very tall, call him Tiny.

   2. Tease him lightly. Playfully banter - flirty and fun. Laugh at one of his quirks, parody him kindly, or give him an ambiguous compliment. Tease in a casual and fun way. His insecurity should not be the butt of your jokes. Stop immediately if he looks upset or asks you to stop. Feeling hurt is definitely not funny.

      • Say something like, "Wow, for someone who lives on instant noodles, you're a pretty good cook."
      • If he laughs insanely, parody him.

   3. Take stupid selfies. Put on the weirdest faces and take lots of selfies. Try recreating famous photos or paintings, or use Snapchat filters to make your photos look even weirder. Then review them together and judge your stupidity.

      • Send your boyfriend one of these funny photos in a few weeks with the caption: "We're so attractive, aren't we?"

   4. Act out a scene from your favorite movie. Turn on the stage, turn down the volume and create your own version of the dialogue. Don't be afraid to be funny, because the dumber the better.

      • For a funny contrast, come up with goofy dialogue for a very tense romantic scene.
      • Use foreign accents to spice up the scene.
