What is hobby dating?

About this episode

Perhaps you've already experienced that awkward feeling on a first date when you don't really know what to say to each other. Having a drink or going to a restaurant are great activities, but they don't always add much to the conversation. So, if you run out of questions you are often just left staring into each other's eyes and hoping for an opportunity to arise so that you might make a quick getaway! But this might be soon a thing of the past with the rise of the ‘hobby date’ in other words a date organized around an activity. The idea is to introduce your date to something you already enjoy and sharing the experience together. This can take completely different forms, depending on each person's tastes. It might be a cultural outing to a museum, a hike in nature, an arts and crafts class or even cookery lesson. The idea is to choose an activity that you love or are curious about and then invite your partner to take part in it with you. What does this involve? Didn't this already exist before? Do the same activities often stand out? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
