My living room window has a nice view of the sea, but I'm sure the view from my terrace will be even better. The problem, of course, is that both the living room and the terrace are iffy venues for a first date. :-) @Mayuresh: I haven’t been to the terrace yet, but I love the idea!

Have you tried taking the girl to the terrace of your building? If your building is one of the tallest in the area (If it is not, go to the terrace post sunset) go there and watch the sunset. Its an amazing sight and you will have all the privacy you need. It is quite an experience to hold hands, count stars etc. from the terrace at night! Would like to suggest something here.
