I guess it's okay. But I think dinner and then somewhere you can talk. A first date is the time to really talk and get to know each other. Then when you get to the cuddling making out stage go to the movies.

No, on first dates, you should have dinner with your girlfriend and girlfriend's parents(and immediate family), that way her parents can be comfortable with their daughter dating someone. If the first date is at the movies, more than likely her parents will think you like her for all the wrong reasons. Movies are just not a place for first dates, unless you are double dating. And don't get me wrong, fathers ( and mothers) like to meet their daughter's boyfriend, before that first date, so they can set things straight with you( because most parents are very protective of their children). SO NO....... First dates should not be at the movies, but having dinner with the family( would be good first date), so the family will be more comfortable with you.

Sure it is. But, if u can afford it try going to get something to eat first. That way u would hv an idea of the likes and dislikes of ur date. Ask questions, share the moment. Movies are fun but u spend most of the time together watching with little to no talking. U dont want to spend at least 3 hours with someone and dont no who they r. So, plan an early date grab a bite.........THEN the movie........Good Luck!

I like the movie as a first date. If you go out for drinks, or coffee, or a big meal there's a lot of conversation. That's not always a great thing, because too much talking can feel like a job interview. A funny, or romantic movie (or whatever you're into) can set the tone for the night. It will give you something to talk about later, you can discuss the movie - instead of going on and on about yourself.

No, a movie should be more of a second date! think about it. first date should be dinner.. that way you guys can sit down and talk about ...what ever. but as you talk you get to know the person and after that date invite her to the movie for next week. preferably a horror movie! because who's hand is she going to hold when she gets scared. and now that she knows you she'll feel more comfortable with you, rather than being the first date and having an aquard moment.

It depends on what your intentions are, or how well you already know the other person.
Going to the movies, you don't really get to talk to or learn anything new about your date. Not only that, but most girls out here think that if you want to go to the movies with them, all you're interested in is kissing.
Going out to dinner, on the other hand, would involve lots of conversation.
I think if you invite them on the date, you should choose something YOU want to do that they would like, that lets the other person learn things about you without you saying a word.

No, it is not a good idea for a first date, in my opinion anyway. It's not a good way of getting to know that person. You're sitting in front of a huge screen for 2 hours instead of communicating with them.
If you are going to go, at least get something to eat with them. While you're eating, try to get to know them better.
See, my first date with my boyfriend, we met at church so we both wouldn't be nervous. Then we went out to eat with a group of people, again so we wouldn't be nervous. The alone times with him, where we really got to talk to one another, were the best.
My second date however, we went to a movie. It was a really long movie too, and we didn't talk or anything. Afterwards though, we went to play mini-golf and that was very fun. We got to talk, laugh at each other, it was great.
So yeah, try to do something afterwards. Mini-golf makes for a very fun date! Try to do something afterwards where you can really communicate!

I don't think it's a good idea! I mean it's your first date, do something different from others and try to do something fun. Some places that will allow the two of you to talk and get to know each other more. Like....ice skating, pic nic, miniature golf, bike riding, hiking, dinner near the beach, etc.

Great idea if you're really shy, nervous or not a very good conversationalist. At the end of the movie, you should have plenty of common ground to start and maintain a good conversation.
If you are not shy, it's better to have dinner or something that will allow you to converse and get to know each other better.

Nope, I hate movies on the first date. You cant talk and get to know each other. It feels weird watching a movie with someone for 2 hrs that you dont know.
