Here are some dating ideas to get you started.
Food
Coffee at a cafe - Great for first dates
Breakfast at a diner
Lunch
Dinner - Be it romantic, cooking together or something a bit crazier involving chocolate or your other favorite desert. Fondue?
Getting ice cream together
Picnic
Outside/Sport Dating Ideas
If you are going to participate in something competitive, always remember not to be upset if you lose. A bad loser is a turn off! A bit of light hearted teasing is okay if you can pull it off.
Miniature golf
Bike riding - Mountain biking
Amusement parks
Visit local parks or botanic gardens
Hiking and nature walks
Swimming at a pool or the beach - be careful you don't come off as just trying to see your date in their bathers if it is early on in your dating history.
Surf catting
Yachting
Kayaking / Canoeing
Water skiing
Lawn bowls
Rollerblading
Tennis
Horse back riding - Note: this can turn out quite painful if not done correctly.

Play in the snow
Camping
Charity walks/runs/bike rides - Good way to have fun and keep fit
Paintball/laser guns (there are some outside laser games these days)
Rock Climbing
Archery
Horse and carriage ride through town
Watch a sporting event
