A Bus Date.. getting a little closer

How’s your love life?  

During the early part of the day, end of the day, Saturdays in the middle of the day, many buses are very full. You normally have to sit next to someone or someone will sit next to you. To some this may seem uncomfortable, but on the bus it seems acceptable... really doesn’t bother you that much.

Then the other day it hit me... what a place for a date.
Been wanting to get closer to someone?
The bus is the answer.

Whether single or married, this is a great novel, different, and unusually romantic possibility.
The seats are close together so you sit very close together. More than on any other form of transportation... trains and boats and planes. Reminds me of a song.

For example, you may be in college, have been wanting to get close to someone. Been a few places but always had some physical distance between you. Suggest a bus date. Make it sound different, metropolitan, somewhat earthy, while artsy. Now, you have your big chance. When you board the bus you of course will sit together. There is no other place where you can sit as close as you do on the bus. After a few hop ons and off, you will have eliminated the physical distance factor and establish a closer feel to each other. Great opportunity here to get close to someone you really would like too.

And the married couple who goes your own way so much, suggest a unique night out. Use the bus as your transportation. Maybe it will bring back the memory of your college days when you rode the bus around the city.  Or let it be just one of those simple moments that most couples seem to relish the simplicity of. Take time planning your routes together... using the city transit website. Find out how your bus system works and make it an adventure together... to a stroll downtown, off to a quaint eating place, a walk in a park, a special dessert. If you live out of town, come in, park the car/SUV and use the bus.

Then too, you are really close and it’s a great place to spur some intimate conversation. With some people around(don’t want all to hear), a whisper in the ear, touch of the hands, creating time of moving closer that takes you back to when you were hooked on that feeling.  A good place to spark the feelings of those times when the fire burned brighter.

The bus is a great novel date idea that could kick the romance up a notch or two. Or if it’s the one you have been wanting to get closer to, arrange the date so you must make several bus changes... the frequency of being close breaks the ice so it becomes a spontaneous way of becoming closer.

The bus is a good place to get closer, naturally. Better than trains, or boats, or planes, and the automobile.
