Advice on a first date - update

[tontod]

As I talked about in an earlier thread, i got a date on Friday with this girl I met a couple of weeks ago. Now, I've never been on a date before, so I'm not quite sure of myself. The only certain thing is that we're going to have dinner at 5:30 PM. Is asking her to go to a movie after that a good idea for a first date? If not, what else could/should I do? We havent talked about it, but I'm going to suggest to her that I pick her up. Oh, am I'm 24 if that matters.

Just be yourself, don't fart and if she never wants to speak to you again afterwards, don't take it personally and let it go.

Don't get caught staring at her boobs.
You are going to get caught now since I mentioned it.

yes a movie is a good idea. but askin her what she might like dooin is also a good idea. and just be yourself and be polite and all that good stuff. tell her you liker he hair and her shoes because she probilly spent a good 3 hours deciding which shoes to ware

I don't like going to movies on a first date because the whole point of a first date is to see if you'd like to spend more time with that person and it's very hard to do when you're sitting in a dark room for 2 hours and aren't even feeling each other up.

Edit: Also, unless your 65 years old and are catching the early bird special, 5:30 seems a bit too early to have a date.

5:30 is really early for dinner. Don't talk about yourself. No one cares about you. Just talk about her. She knows her. She likes her.

don't go out with a loaded gun! i'm being serious about this. if you don't know what i'm talking about, i'm referring to There's Something About Mary. you'll feel more comfortable around her.

going to movie is okay, but boring. i suggest eating in downtown, or other restaurant that is located nearby other shops. you could walk over to ice cream shops, bars, etc. and try to get to know her by talking.

that's good advice, but don't sound like you're a stalker or anything....and don't get into a political debate.....

 

[krackato]

Unless she's a politician. Then talk about her political career. Tell her you voted for her. That always works.

you're going to screw it up. that is inevitable. the only question is, how much and how bad?



just relax and be yourself.

Well on thing that you should know is that women likes attention and caring so always ask her what She wants to eat or what movie she wants to see first. it shows that you put her first!

its a good idea to tell her that she looks nice or just say "you look very lovely tonight"

you should definately plans out everything before heading out. because you never know if she thinks that you just want to have dinner and she might make plans with her friends afterwards.

PAY FOR EVERYTHING.

GOOD LUCK and let us know on friday night when u come back unless u get LUCKY!!! then we'll understand.

This is what happens when you "unload" you gun

 

[tontod]

Hmm, didn't realize 5:30 was a bit early. Maybe I'll push it back to like 6 or 6:30 and pick her up.

Thanks for the inspiration, pyonir.

:Q

 

[krackato]

6:30?!!!!!

Pick her up at 8!!! Everyone says I'll pick you up at 8! I hear a few pick you up at 7's, but mostly 8. Who says 6:30?

 

[tontod]

Ok, ok, I'll move it back to 8 then. As I said, I have no idea of these things.

 

[Anubis]

what are you guies talkin about!!!! 8 is wat to late for dinner!!!!!!!!
if yougonna take her to dinner 6:30 or 7 is best

Don't ask the girl so often what she wants to do. Girls want to know that you're thinking of them, but they also want you to be able to make some decisions on your own.

Also, when is this date? Weekend or weekday?

I only talked to her today about it, and she agreed. Just going to call her up one more time at most. Date is set for this Friday.

 

[badluck]

dood, grab some dinner at 8 or so....nothing earlier. after that, go to a comedy club that starts around 10....make it seem like you are a fun guy....not some guy who is 16 and takes chics to the movies. after the comedy club, hit the bars and show her a good time....

I repeat....NO MOVIES!!!! and act CONFIDENT!!!

 

[krackato]

Well obviously you can pick her up at 8 if you're the kind of guy that's planned ahead and already has reservations at the Cafe de La Grete Francesca de lou Me. Very exclusive. Have to make reservations months in advance but I pulled some strings.

Did you miss the part where he said he's 24?

Since this is the 1st time we'll be alone, I didnt select too fancy a place. From talking to her I dont think she'd like that at first.

Edit: She's also stated that she dosent like going to bars too much, so suggesting a bar may not be the best idea.
