My strategy is to have been married to the person for at least a decade so expectations are set.
- “They’re rambling about trains again; good thing I brought my knitting.”
- “Oh, they brought their knitting, I may as well keep rambling about trains because they are not paying attention.”
- good food
- walk
- bed
This is peak comedy xD

Sex first, then dinner.
Nobody wants to have sex after they are stuffed with their favourite food!
Why not? You must be young. As an elder I can tell you from experience that one can have sex more than once; before, during and after dinner if needed.
ahem.
Hello.
Sex really breaks the ice.
This should be top comment.
Floss your teeth and brush throughly before date, relax, the point is to enjoy yourself

Set up a pizza delivery the day before to ensure it shows up at the exact time I want it. Figure out a good movie ahead of time. Order a fresh bottle of lotion off amazon. Do some stretches with my wrists the day of. Light some candles. You know, the basics.
Be kind, communicate a lot.
Sounds dumb but if it’s meant to be that’s all it should take. People make dating these days so complex.
I don’t go on dates or come up with strategies. I say “Hi” and then they say things back and I respond to that. I place food into my face hole if it’s expected of me. I continue this process until “dates” are no longer needed - one way or the other.
Do something or go somewhere neither of you has been or done before.
If it’s enjoyable for both of you, you win. If it’s not fun, you get to bond with each other over not liking it.
People naturally bond when experiencing something together for the first time and feel the same way about it. If you feel the opposite about the experience, then you know you are less likely to be compatible.
The most important part is to be honest about how you feel about the experience, and be honest immediately if you don’t like it. “This is terrible, right?”
My marriage is the result of several weeks exploring the town. Other dates were not honest about not liking something, and the relationship didn’t last. Wife to be felt the same way about places we tried as I did. If it was a terrible experience and we both thought so, it would bring us closer together just as much as a positive one. In fact, the terrible experiences were sometimes the best because we would laugh together about how bad it was. It’s like taking a compatibility test.
Something new is good advice.
It’s temping to do something familiar to minimise the “risk” of a bad experience, but that’s false safety.
It’s human nature to get defensive of what we already know we like, and it puts the other person in a difficult position too where they may feel forced to pretend, or to keep their genuine opinion quiet.
Something new puts you both on an even footing, leaving neither disadvantaged, and that’s cool. And - as you say - even if it’s terrible, at least you can both laugh about it.
Fast all day. Order take out. Shower before the gluttony to avoid mirror shame. Consume take-out. Collapse into the blanket pile for nap time. Wake up in time for raid at 9 Pm.
