For example: "Let's set an attentive date."

Is "attentive" the right word? I can't remember.

You are thinking of the word "tentative" When you say "let's set a tentative date" you are agreeing to a date, but leaving open the possibility of changing it to a different date if necessary.

From the way you have it phrased, I waould say you are looking for "Alternate" or "Tentative."

"Attentive" is a word, and it has a meaning of "an attitude of attention."

no...i think you might mean an alternative date, meaning another date, or a different date. attentive means to pay attention, to concentrate

i think so it will be correct if it is said "let's set a tentative date."

tentative. otherwise, we normally say "would you like to go out sometime?" or "let's go out sometime" when asking for a possible date.
