Oh, they'll start building a movie theater in 2008. I live in Goes, Zeeland, The Netherlands :).

Here is some truth for you: A woman that has the hots for you does not care where you guys go - she just wants to spend time with you.

Think about it in the reverse. A girl that you like asks you to hang out with her. Are you really going to care about what you do? NO.

One of the best dates I ever had involved me taking a girl out with me to do my grocery shopping.

There must be SOMETHING that you can do together that's doesnt involve playing on the jungle gym/traveling overseas to see a movie. Does your school host sport events? Pep rallies? At the very least ask her about a movie she wants to see, then go buy the dvd and invite her over to watch it - I'm sure she knows that it's a hassle to go to the movies so she wont consider it weird or anything.

He can't take her to his house...his parents think he's gay, and might tell her so...

Okay, so I could just ask her to watch a movie with me?

Hey, I just got the greatest idea! If I could get my parents to go dancing for a night or whatever, I'd have the place for myself. Tell me, would a girl find it romantic if a guy'd cook dinner for her and watch a movie with her afterwards? I'm a great cook, so the dinner wouldn't be a problem. If only I could keep my mouth shut when a subtitler makes a mistake :( :p.

They are counter productive. The focus gets turned to the movie rather than each other.

IT DOESN"T MATTER WHERE YOU TAKE A WOMAN OUT.

Coffeeshop? It's illegal to get a woman under influence and then do things to her (although I like the way you think :p).

Um... not really what I had in mind... I think you need to keep those raging hormones in check. I recommended a coffee shop so that you don't have to pay for anything expensive (if at all) for the girl and it's a good chance to talk to her to build and increase attraction.... You need to get to step A before you get to X.

Nope, nothing. But as stated previously, she said she liked Kung Fu movies.

BTW, if you SHOULD ever get anywhere with this chick, be sure to let her know you get lots of date advice on the internet. That should impress her lots...

A misunderstanding on my part. Here, we call the places you can get weed legally, 'coffeeshops'. Sorry. :p

It's a nice idea, but we don't have anything like that over here :(.

There you go, 100% truth right there.

Oh and just so you know, I took a date once to the local park (after hours though ;)) and we hung out on the jungle gym/slides/swings setup. Both had a great time and we were like 19/18 years old.

Buy you're gay, remember? How is she gonna deal with that when your parents tell her?

Besides, what YOU think is impressive may only give her a little chuckle...

It's friggin' Holland, man. We only have one Starbucks, and it's located in Amsterdam. I ain't gonna make a 200 mile trip just to drink some damn Starbucks coffee, no matter how good it is.

I'd listen to the advice many people have given and stay away from the movie. You want her attention to be directed towards you, not the screen.

Then you'll be better able to gauge if she's worth the time and expense of the trip to the movies/dinner and she'll also get the chance to figure out if she wants to spend time with you at all...[/quote]

But isn't that like kind of.. sad? I mean, in my previous thread everyone was saying I should totally take her to the movies... And I personally don't think she'd be scared off if I asked her to go to the movies/watch a movie at my place with me.

As another poster said, it really won't matter where you go if she really likes you. You'll want to avoid any sign of desperation by over doing it.

just play it cool and confident, the rest will work itself out.

Good luck to you.
