Good idea?

[DSK83]

I am thinking about taking a girl out on a date. I'm thinking about taking her ice skating since I know she enjoys it. However, I haven't ice skated in about 10 years so I probably will be a clutz on the ice for the first 30 minutes. I thought this would be a good way to show her that I'm not afraid to do something even if I'm not good at. She also tends to believe that I am more capable than she is in most ways and I thought this would be a good way to boost her confidence and show her that I can learn a few things from her as well. Does this sound like a good idea or would me flopping around on the ice for the first 30minutes to an hour as she tried to help me be a turnoff? I would really appreciate any advice, since I am planning on taking her out tomorrow evening. Thanks!

Sounds like a great idea to me. If she's actually seriously bothered by whatever lack of skating skill you have, your first date probably should be your last.

I have considered taking my girl out to skate as well. I don't know how to skate either. Not sure about her. But it sounds like it wouldn't be a mistake if you took her to go skating. You already know that.

I appreciate the advice.
