Gay First Date?

I might go on a date with this really cute dude I met online. Spare me the safety speech… I kinda trust him and I would never meet him in a non-public place or accept a ride… etc. That’s not my question really…
The thing is that I want to know where to go out w/this dude. What’s a great place to go on a first date? I really want to get to know him, so the theater would be a bad place. What’s a great place to go in LA that’s both fun and/or romantic. He seems to be interested in me and I don’t wanna disappoint?What precautions should I take? Not as in safety, but as in appearance, demeanor, conversation topics, etc.
What’s a great thing to talk about in a first date?
I have this corny plan to take my year book and ask him to bring his… it’d be a good conversation starter, bringing in topics such as crushes, friends, signings, teachers, school environment, etc.? What do you guys think about this?
He IS 8 years older than I (not too much), any pointers on this?

    For first dates, I always recommend “quickie dates” that can last longer if you wish. For example, there was one guy I met in Starbucks. We were going to meet for only 20″ because he was under a lot of pressure, but the 20″ turned into 90″. We really LIKED each other.
    Another alternative on this theme is to meet for lunch in a shopping mall. Lunch takes a bit longer, and if you really like each other, then you can go somewhere else in the mall for dessert.
    In other words, plan an event which can very naturally be cut off quickly if you don’t hit it off. (You can finish a cup of coffee in 15″ or you can linger over it for 90″ if you wish).
    I like the fact that you have already ruled out a movie. You can’t talk and you can’t really get to know each other in a movie. Good for you!
    Your yearbook idea, however, not so good. Leave that at home. I think you are worrying too much about what to talk about. If the two of you like each other, topics will just flow very naturally from you.
    Best of luck to you both.

    I would take him to the Zoo… Nice and sorta romantic, but it’s also a public place… I’ve always been turned on at the zoo.. no i dont like animals that way, but it always brought me and my partner closer together… u know lookin at the animals… plus i’ve always like the attention that hetro’s gove.. they like see 2 same sex together and they ASSUME they are together.. i think it’s HARALIOUS!

    take him to the reatuarant Gladstone’s in malibu. they have really awesome food and it’s right on the beach. it’s a little bit on the pricier side but it’s well worth it….
    google the restariant its on pch.

    talk about yourself/himself; ask him questions about him.
    be yourself.
    i would suggest not talking about crushes :/ prolly a bad idea,ya know? since ur crushing on him kinda?
    um, as for where to go? go someplace;do an activity…like bowling,putt-putt golf, or like a fair/carnival. then you’ll both have fun; chat. get to see what he likes to eat (people always have interesting eating quirks,lol)
    and as for appearance,etc. just be yourself; look nice, smell nice. don’t overdo it.
    or you could always go to a park; i’m not really sure where to go in LA; i’ve never been,but i’m sure theres more fun things for a couple to do there than to do where i live!! lol
    or you could go out to eat somewhere; go to a shopping center/mall.
    just be yourself; i’m sure he’ll love u; if not,you deserve better. good luck man! :)
