What does 'make for' mean? Can you show me some examples using this expression?

Sure thing! Here, "make for" means to contribute to something - to lead to or cause a situation or result. For example, here, he's asking if a "walk in the countryside" would <contribute to> or <cause> a good date. Ex: This dress will make for a nice outfit with those shoes. Ex: This group of people will make for an interesting evening. Ex: Procrastinating doing work now will make for a stressful night tomorrow. Ex: Leave out the pasta. That will make for a shorter grocery list.
