dating

so i went on a date yesterday and had a good time. shes 23 and im 27. i thought we wouldnt have much to talk about, since i dont really know her, but it went really well. we had dinner then a few drinks. showed her my house(since we were across the street) then brought her home. i went for a kiss in a hug kinda way and she just went for the hug. i think im actually happy she did since most girls i meet lately would of been making out with me and i probably wouldnt respect her as much. anyway, anyone else think dates are just so wierd? you go out to dinner, etc... of coarse you get to know the person blah blah blah, but there is gotta b something more fun than the run of the mill date. any thoughts? im far from a rookie at dating, but dinner/movie shit is really getting old.

Meh. Dating can be frustrating. Same old stuff wears on you. Its never good to be in a rut. Just try to take advantage of different things when they come up. Go to a comedy club. I took a girl with me to see Dave Chappelle last month. Are there any interesting sights around where you live? I went for a tour of sights around downtown chicago last week and it was a fun and interesting time... cheap too :naughty:

:1:

I hate the basic wine and dine that everybody seems to do. Why does it have to be dinner and a movie? I guess society as a whole is lazy.

Really though, do you learn much about somebody in a movie and while you're eating? Not really.

any thoughts? im far from a rookie at dating, but dinner/movie shit is really getting old.

Why not just ask her to go somewhere? I mean most people won't consider it a date but a date is really just getting to know somebody and being with them.

Say you need a second opinion when you go to the mall to buy new clothes.

You could tell her you need groceries and want her to go along.

How about a walk in the park (or beach whichever is closer)? It's free, you get some fresh air, and it's very peaceful.

What about going to a zoo or aquarium? I mean chicks love animals and cute fish.

It's football season so you could go to a game with her. I mean if you live near your old high school you could ask her to go because you'd like somebody to be there in case you don't know anybody. If anything else you can sit in the stands and talk with her.

Any of these things sound good to me. As long as you're with the girl, getting to know them, and most importantly she likes being with you, it doesn't matter really where you go.

i dated a 27 yr old...

those are some good ideas, the comedy club sounds like the best idea. chapelle? damn that'd b sick, but i dont think he does shows around here. true about the movie thing, i dont even go that route anymore, but at dinner, we did talk alot. too bad i didnt eat most of my food tho!!the park is an idea since i have a pitbull that we could bring. maybe like minigolf or some gay shit. thatd probably b fun...keep em coming! by the way, i live near hartford, connecticut. not really much to see there..

Fish ftw!

Fish ftw!

Fish wtf?

maybe we could go to nicoles and watch her goldfish!

Note to self - Plan all dates around my room...

dates in bedrooms are always fun...

dates in bedrooms are always fun...

it ceases to be a date when you get to the bedroom...

What is it then?

Hopefully not rape

haha, i think its still a date... if it starts and ends in the bedroom, its a bootycall..

the wine an dine thing brought back a memory, we know a guy whose parents were in the SOE (look it up) and this guy's mother was a secret agent in WWII, and she used to go on "dates" with high-ranking german officers, then kill them.

it was always said that she "wined them and dined them and shot them"

another useless snippet of info from 2.2.......

...the SOE (look it up)....

Special Ops Elite??? Okay, I'll look it up :frown:

I was close

go to a theme park. dates at Six Flags are awome. you get to talk and flirt on line (really does pass time for the big rides), and you get to go on thrilling rides together.

trust me, theme parks ftw.

sounds fun but im a fag at theme parks, i dont go on shit....

same, roller coasters scare the living shite out of me.

Very true. I went on a Six Flags date early this summer. It was really fun except my friends girlfriend was real antisocial and didn't wanna talk to the other girls at all :shakehead

Me and my date had a good time though.

I've found that a simple picnic is nice to have. Also, putt-putt is fairly inexpensive and allows you the talk time. Pretty much anything that doesn't require your undivided attention for a long period of time is a good first-date plan (ex. movie is bad. Maybe for a second date).

Bowling? :dunno:

Just another idea going along with mini golf

^actually, yeah, bowling is also a good idea. went well for me, atleast. you don't even have to be good. i think i bowled a 94 or something that day (the highest i've ever bowled i believe, lol)

ya, as much as bowling and minigolfing seems stupid, itd probably be fun. ive already learned movies suck bigtime, u look forward at a screen.....wow....

I've found that a simple picnic is nice to have.

I agree, Picnic's are great, nice relaxed environment and stuff.

and what can be better that the combination of a date and food at the same time?

date and sex maybe? lol

bowling and putt-putt are great. i usually do that as a first date and i always end up makin a fool of myself. it doesn't matter though cause the girls are having fun. i dunno what it is like near Hartford but hiking is fun too

hiking another good 1. keep em coming, my second date is coming!

it may sound childish and what not, but if you have a nice space to go fly a kite. it's fun, some people have never done it, and you get to be at the park. you could pack a picnic or somethin too. it leaves the door wide open for various activities.

another one, most girls don't really like playin sports and what not but i've found that a lot of them like throwing frisbees. i dunno why but it's fun and you don't get too sweaty, plus you can show them how if they don't know how.

or they could show me!lol i only say that cause i did that like 2 months ago with this girl ashley. for some reason i forgot how to! that is a good idea cause i have a dog and itd all tye together. once again, i have no trouble getting girls to fall for me, but new ideas are always good. not sure about the kite thing...

I miss read that at first and I thought you said that you end up making food for yourself.

Why not cook?

Well when my bf asked me out for our first date, we went out for chocolate cake at this pub and there was a man playing classics on the piano. I really liked it. Afterwards we just went for a drive and parked up at the beach and talked. It's one of the best dates I've been on. Most of our dates before we became "official" revolved around hanging out on the beach as the sun went down. It's just so relaxing after a long day at work.

food during sex, ftw.

(Seinfeld, anyone?)

food during sex, ftw.

:grinyes:
Is that pastrami?
Yes... I find it to be the most sensual of the salted cured meats :naughty:

How about trying dates that involve something you like? I avoid run of the mill dinner/movie type dates. Go hiking, take in a football, basketball game etc. The most fun date is whitewater rafting. Make it something totally original. I haven't done a sky diving date yet though, I'm too chicken to jump out of a perfectly good airplane.

DO IT!!
