[中文]

大家好，我是乔丹-佩奇，来自“千禧一代妈妈”频道。

今天我们要聊聊集体约会。

(欢快的音乐)

最近我收到很多问题，

关于我们最近参加的这些有趣的集体约会，

我们邀请谁，如何计划，做什么，

所以我打算拍一个简短的视频给所有想尝试集体约会的妈妈们，

帮助大家轻松又愉快地完成。

我的第一个建议就是去做吧。

很多人只是坐着想，

“如果没人想来怎么办？

“如果约会不顺利怎么办？

“如果大家玩得不开心怎么办？

“又不是完美的周末。”

别这样想了。

拿出手机，发个短信，就开始吧。

直接选个日期和时间，然后开始行动。

别发邮件，也别打电话，直接发短信就好。

都2017年了，朋友们。

这是现在流行的沟通方式。

在邀请人的时候，

要考虑一下性格是否合得来。

不一定要每个人都和每个人都是最好的朋友。

事实上，我们最近举办了一个有14个人参加的集体约会，

除了我和Bubba，

大家彼此都不认识，

但到晚上结束的时候，

每个人都成了好朋友，互相交换了联系方式，

玩得很开心，所以有时候，

大家彼此不认识的集体约会反而更有趣。

现在来说说集体约会做什么。

我的建议是，一定要有食物，

而且食物要放在第一位。

我们通常从晚餐开始。

这是打破僵局的好方法。

能让大家聊起来，

也能让大家有事情做，

而且说实话，

每个人都饿了，每个人都得吃饭。

不如大家一起吃。

选择餐厅的时候，

一定要选择有很多不同选择的餐厅。

如果有人不喜欢海鲜或寿司，

或者对贝类过敏，

就不要选择专门的海鲜或寿司餐厅。

另外，还要提前打电话给餐厅，

确认他们是否接受预订，

以及是否有足够的空间容纳你们的团体。

我的下一个建议是晚餐后安排一个活动。

不要去看电影。

千万不要。

在电影院里，你只能坐在那里

盯着屏幕看两个小时。

你无法和任何人交流。

这并不有趣。

我们喜欢举办独特又有趣的集体约会。

最近我们先去吃了晚餐，然后去了一个喜剧俱乐部，

那次集体约会非常有趣，

因为我们最喜欢的集体约会之一

是去看演唱会，或者去喜剧俱乐部。

我们有一次还去玩了轮滑。

我们玩过激光枪战。

密室逃脱也超级有趣，如果你没玩过的话。

基本上他们会把你锁在一个房间里，

你的团队必须解开所有的谜题，

才能在时间到之前逃出去。

这真的很有趣。

如果你有幽闭恐惧症，可能就不太适合。

绘画课，舞蹈课。

只要做一些有趣的事情，

而且是初学者也能轻松参与的，

无论你在那个领域有多么熟练。

在集体约会结束时，

一定要拍一张合影。

我总是忘记，

但拍合影真的很有趣，

而且这是大家在社交媒体上联系的好方式，

因为你们可以互相标记和关注，

当然，我最喜欢的是拍一个Boomerang，

因为Boomerang有多么有趣？

because I mean, how entertaining is a boomerang?

我的最后一个建议就是放松。

不要给自己太大的压力。

有些人希望这些集体约会完美无缺，

或者想在家举办一个晚宴，

准备好小名牌和各种精致的小东西。

放松点。

人们只想玩得开心。

享受它，放松，

这将会是一段美好的时光。

我认为集体约会非常重要，

尤其是对于妈妈们来说，

因为它给你一个机会去走出家门，

也许还能认识新朋友，

或者加强与其他人的关系。

有朋友的生活会更有趣，

集体约会可以减轻一对一交流的压力，

但仍然可以享受美好的社交时光。

好了，就这些了。

去尝试一些集体约会吧。

告诉我结果如何。

这实际上将是我最后一个“千禧一代妈妈”视频了。

我将专注于我的个人博客和YouTube频道，

频道名称是“Fun, Cheap, or Free”。

相关信息在下面的描述中。

我会想念大家的，我真的会，

但一定要观看昨天的视频，

你还可以看到我其他的视频。

我有几十个，甚至上百个视频，

而且一定要订阅。

留下来，不要走。

下次再见。

去玩得开心吧，朋友们。

再见。

太棒了。

- Hey guys, it's Jordan Paige with Millennial Moms,

and today we're gonna talk about group dates.

(upbeat music)

One of the questions that I seem to be getting recently

is about all of these fun group dates that we're going on,

who we bring, how we plan 'em, what we do,

so I thought I'd just do a quick video for all of you moms

out there who want to do some group dates, as well,

to help you pull it off seamlessly and oh so fun-ly.

My first tip is just do it.

So many people sit there, they're like,

"But what if nobody wants to come?

"What if it doesn't go well?

"What if people don't have fun?

"Well, this isn't the perfect weekend."

Stop it.

Just get out your phone, send a text, and do it.

Just pick a date and a time and start there.

Don't do an email, don't call people, just text.

Welcome to 2017, guys.

It's the way of communicating.

When it comes to inviting people,

you wanna think about personalities that will get along.

Everybody doesn't have to be best friends with everybody.

In fact, we recently just threw a huge group date

with 14 people and there wasn't a single couple

who knew anybody else in the group except for Bubba and I,

but by the end of the night,

everybody walked away best friends, exchanging numbers,

having a good time, so sometimes group dates

where people don't know each other are the most fun.

Now, what to do on a group date.

My tip is always have food involved

and have food come first.

We usually start out with dinner.

It's a good way to break the ice.

It gets people talking, it gives people something

to do with their hands, and let's be honest,

everybody's hungry and everybody's gotta eat.

Might as well do it as a group.

When picking a restaurant, be sure to pick a restaurant

that has lots of different options.

You don't want a specific seafood or sushi restaurant

if there are people in the group who don't like seafood,

don't like sushi, or are allergic to shellfish.

You also wanna call ahead to the restaurant

and make sure they take reservations and make sure

that they have space to accommodate your group.

My next tip is to do an activity after dinner.

Do not go to a movie.

Do not do it.

At a movie, you sit there

staring at the screen for two hours.

You can't associate with anyone.

It's not that fun.

We like to do group dates that are unique and fun.

Recently we went to dinner and then we went to a comedy club

and that was such a fun group date,

because some of our favorite group dates

have been going to concerts, going to the comedy club.

We went rollerskating one time.

We've done laser tag.

Escape rooms are super fun if you haven't done one of those.

They basically lock you in a room

and your group has to solve all these puzzles

to get out before the timer's up.

It's really fun.

Maybe not so much if you're claustrophobic.

Painting class, dance lessons.

Just do something fun, but something that's beginner level

that anybody can do no matter what their skill is

in that particular category.

At the end of your group date,

be sure to take a group picture.

I am so bad at this.

I always forget, but it is so fun and it's a good way

for everybody to connect on social media,

'cause you can tag each other and follow each other,

and then of course my personal favorite

is to take a boomerang,

because I mean, how entertaining is a boomerang?

And my last tip is just relax.

Don't put so much pressure on yourself.

Sometimes people want these group dates to be perfect

or they wanna throw a dinner party

at their house and have little name cards

and all these perfect little things.

Just relax.

People just wanna have fun.

Enjoy it, relax, and it will be a great time.

I think group dates are so important,

especially for moms because it gives you an opportunity

to get out of the house and maybe to meet new people

or to strengthen relationships with other people.

It makes life way more fun when you have friends,

and group dates are a good way to take pressure off

of one on one interaction but still have a good social time.

So there you go.

Get out there, try some group dates.

Let me know how it goes.

This is actually gonna be my last Millennial Moms video.

I am moving on to focus on my own blog and YouTube channel,

which is Fun, Cheap, or Free.

The information's in the description below.

I'm gonna miss you guys, I really am,

but be sure to watch yesterday's video

and you can see all my other videos.

I've got dozens and dozens of them,

and be sure to subscribe.

Stick around, don't go anywhere.

See you guys on the flip side.

Get out there and have some fun, guys.

Bye.

I'm sweaty from laughing so hard because that was awesome.

That was great.
