How to Have a Boyfriend by the Holidays




COSMOPOLITAN always help us.Sure, being single during the holiday season has its charms: one less present you’ve gotta buy, and a whole lot more flirting on the party circuit. But lots of chicks yearn for a steady guy to ring in the new year with. If that’s your MO, grab that guy that you've been hanging out with and try out some of these creative, wallet-friendly (and bond-strengthening) date ideas. They just might tip you two over into “serious” territory by Christmas.


1. Go day-hiking and marvel at the amazing autumn colors on a woodsy trail. You’ll both feel alive and connected to nature...and to each other.

2. Surprise him with an unexpected date that will blow his mind: a shooting range, boxing match, or beer and chocolate tasting. He'll love your creativity.

3. Instead of meeting for a beer at a local pub, sample some hard cider, or try a wine bar. Sharing something new together triggers a brain chemical rush that mimics the rush of attraction.

4. So what if Halloween is over? Go ahead and Netflix a cheesy-horror film, like Shaun of the Dead, and laugh/cringe at the scary/silly parts.

5. Invite him over for homemade s’mores you make on your stove-top. It’s a sweet gesture that’s not as loaded (or time-consuming) as cooking an entire fancy dinner.

6. Meet up at a local college football game; guys love anything that has to do with competition.

7. Novelty is exciting, so pick a town you’ve never visited before within a few hours of your house, Google-map it, get in the car, and drive there on a day road-trip.

8. Go ice-skating — and don’t be afraid to suck at it. It’ll give you something goofy to bond over.

9. During the next full moon, take a long walk. Try not to talk too much; just hold hands under the moonlight.

10. If snow arrives early, pick up a cheap plastic sled and hit a nearby hill. You’ll feel free, kid-like, and unguarded.
