The year comes to an end. And with this our attempt to have date days every month. Did we manage a date monthly. No. We went on six cool date dates. I loved every single one. So my goal of shaping relationships in 2024 was definitely successful.
Best Date Day in 2024
Thinking back on all the date days I think the horserace day was my most favorite because it was a totally new experience. We made an effort to dress up, we planned our outfits. It was a whole day. And it was sunny and warm but not too warm. We tried our hand in betting.
But I also enjoyed the dinner at Schnitzelei on the April date or the stroll around peacock island in October. But the corn dog during our food hopping tour was also so good.
The Husband says he loved the cinema date because we haven’t been to the cinemas in ages. He also enjoyed Peacock island a lot and said it was a cool date. But overall he he says he really enjoyed them all and and every one had a favorite moment.
Outfits of Date Days
Date Day March – Futurism, dinner, movie
Date Day April – museum, dinner
Date Day May – food hopping
Date Day June – Horse Racing
Date Day October – Peacock Island, dinner
Date Day November – Stay at Home Date
I never wrote a review.
The gist: we stayed at home, order food (twice because I put the styrofoam container in the oven to keep it warm and melted not only the food but the oven which took three days to clean… sigh), watched a movie – Wolverine and Deadpool, played some song pop party and then we went shopping for my Christmas present (read I got to try on things the husband already ordered). It is something I wished for and he didn’t even read it. He knows me that good.

Overall total investment into the dates 587,48€ – and every penny was well spend. I regret nothing.
I think it is save to say that introducing date days this year was a really good decision. And I will definitely keep them in 2025 and hope the husband is on board. Maybe we don’t need to do elaborated dates all the time. Maybe just a movie. Just a dinner at some new place. Just a bike ride. Maybe we count double dates too ( then the Christmas tree cutting and the fancy dinner with our friends would count.)
Now tell me: Did you go on a date in 2024? Do you plan regular dates? What was the best date you ever went on? And any worst dates to share? What is your favorite outfit I wore on a date?
