This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Why is hiking a bad first date? Its free and walking side by side makes it easier to talk casually + it makes you appear like someone who actually leaves the house.

The whole purpose of ~~buying the boat~~ going on a hike in the first place was to get the ladies nice and ~~tipsy top side~~ alone, so we can take them to a nice comfortable place ~~below deck~~, and you know, they can't refuse...because of the implication.

Not sure if this was above posters point, but this was pointed out to me once...

As a guy who typically dates girls, you're asking a woman to go out in the woods alone with you to a place that likely has no cell service and no way to contact anyone and is typically for the most part completely isolated from civilization.

A walk in the park is a lot better, yeah.

Maybe not for a brand new Tinder date but a hike with someone you've known otherwise for a while sounds fine. A hike doesn't have to be way out in the sticks either where you need to rub sticks to light a fire. Plus I think it makes for a great filter, if she is willing to be alone with you like that, chances are she's into you as more than just friends.
