Take her for a jog to the mask vending machine in Xinyi, and then give her your allocation of masks.

Rent some youbikes near Gongguan Station and follow the riverside bike path (Taipei City side—of course other paths are possible) down to Bitan.

Enjoy!

I like the youbike idea, I did Jiantan - Tamsui, finishing by watching the sunset. Real nice.

If you’re into escape rooms and are into scary experiences, The Warrant at Limitless is by far the best English-speaking escape room I’ve done in Taipei.

Lastly, there’s a decent salsa community in Taipei, you could take some intro lesson.

A Coach bag could be less costly in the long run.

With COVID-19 and social distancing measures, I suspect this may not be the best time to give this a whirl.

How long have you been dating?

How about some rock climbing? There are places along the river or rock climbing facilities or even at this public city operated gyms.

Trampolines? There’s places for that.

Hiking is a no-brainer.

SPOT Film house/restaurant. .https://www.travel.taipei/en/attraction/details/456 Indie films, good second floor cafe overlooking a garden restaurant, good quiet-ish date spot.

Villa Herbs lounge bar. Restaurant is not bad, but the lounge/bar on. the other side is an ideal date spot. Very cool old 2 story building, I think it was a church or something previously https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/travel/taipei/the-villa-herbs/ps44862571.cms

Da an park is always cool.

Drinking in the park until well lubricated, then maybe show here some of your muay thai moves, thinking somewhere public where you could practice, perhaps on a MRT station platform nearby.
