First Date at a Pet Store

When I went on the first date with my boyfriend, we were going to go to a movie, but it didn't start for another half hour or so.

We went to the pet store and looked at all the pretty fish, the cute hamsters, and the freaky centipedes and stuff.

It was really fun, a great way to break the ice while talking about the animals, and a good time to share some stories about our previous pets that we had when we were younger.

After that we went to see a movie, which turned out to be terrible, but it was fun at the same time because we could make fun of it afterwards and tease each other over who had chosen it.

We went for ice cream afterwards and had a great time.

It was a great first date because it was very low-key, there wasn’t any pressure, we had things to talk about, and it was fun and cheap.

I couldn’t think of a better first date for us to have had!
