Dating doesn't have to suck, it just needs imagination.
1001 Dating Ideas by Sarah Melland is the ultimate antidote to modern dating fatigue. Equal parts bucket list, therapy, and comedy special, this book flips the script on love by reminding readers how to have fun again. Whether you're single, coupled, or somewhere in the "it's complicated" category, you'll find creative, laugh-out-loud ways to reconnect with curiosity, joy, and maybe even another human.
Inside, you'll discover hundreds of clever ideas: adventurous date challenges, cozy stay-at-home nights, food and travel experiments, sexy and flirty twists, pop-culture-inspired games, and deep-connection prompts that actually spark conversation instead of ghosting it.
Written in Melland's signature brutally funny voice. Part best-friend banter, part "don't-do-what-I-did" wisdom, 1001 Dating Ideas transforms the chaos of modern love into inspiration, laughter, and maybe a few text-worthy stories.
Whether you're planning a first date, reviving a long-term relationship, or simply want to rediscover what makes you feel alive, this book delivers endless inspiration and unapologetic honesty.
Perfect for singles, couples, or anyone who's ever said "dating apps are trash" and still hoped for a spark anyway.

Why did I give you all of this? Because I am a bad a$$, and I am a Virgo, which means I am a perfectionist, love lists and don't want to leave anything out.
