First, they’re sour, then they’re…sweet? The Sour Twink cocktail is bratty energy liquified! You took too long to text back, you’re late to brunch and maybe he caught you eyeing up the barista for just a little too long. Slip this cocktail in his hand and promise a fun filled date night, and he may not be so sour if you play your cards right!
Need to make it up to him? Here are some quick date ideas to fall back into his good graces!
- Spa Night! – Lavish him in high end soaps and face masks, rub his feet and help him relax! Pampered treatment goes a long way and can make any partner feel like royalty.
- Dinner and a Movie at home. – Make his favorite meal! Going out to eat is fun, but there’s something special about your partner cooking for you. Especially when it’s one of their favorite meals. Once you’re full and satisfied, mix up a couple of drinks and sit down to a movie or tv show that you both enjoy. Whether or not you actually watch it is up to you!
- Outdoor Parks and Gardens – A lot of “Date Idea” lists always put hiking on the list, but not many are so athletic, or willing to sweat that much. However, there’s always an open park or botanical garden to be found. It’s a wonderful way to get outside, breathe in the fresh air, and connect over the gorgeous nature and wildlife in your area.
- Take a Day Trip – Sometimes it’s good to get away from your local area and explore something new. Maybe go check out a major metropolitan city nearby! Or if you already live in a big city, find a small town nearby and see what they have to offer! Taking a short trip together can be a fun bonding experience.
- Go shopping! – Nothing is more fun than some retail therapy with a partner! If you want to buy them a gift, this is a great way to do that! See what he likes, and what he’s drawn too. Then either offer to buy it right then or impress him on the next date and gift it to him then. Little things like, “I saw that you liked this” can go a long way, and it doesn’t have to be anything extravagant, unless you want it to be. This is where the thought truly counts.
Gay men, especially twinks, have a bit of a bad rap for being catty, bratty, sarcastic, and a little bit “sour.” But they can also be romantic, sweet, loyal, and kind! So the next time he seems a little annoyed, mix him up a Sour Twink cocktail, and start planning the night of his life!
