First Date

[WDWFREAK53]

sure....if he wants to be "just friends" :lookaroun

Hug = Yeah, had a nice time...maybe I'll bump into you again sometime.
Peck on the Cheek = I'd like more but I don't want to move too fast.
Handshake = I'm never talking to you again :lol:

1. Apply cologne sparingly and strategically.

2. Do not, at any point, ask her to pull your finger.

3. Do not stare openly. Learn the value of a prolonged sideways glance or strategic use of mirrors.

4. Don't listen to anything I say.

5. Have fun. :wave:

And don't forget DEO, please don't forget the DEO...

MOVIE: Wait for july 30, go see "the Village"...

Time for me to cash in on some of those good karma points..

ok...first off...OFFER TO PAY FOR EVERYTHING!! If she offers to pay her own way..LET HER! Don't be pushy..wont get you very far...

Second...let her choose the movie..but dont be afraid to make suggestions. Be open minded...and dont make any faces about her movie selection (as stated above..a horror movie would put you SO into the good zone)

Third...Compliment her on what shes wearing/how she looks..chicks dig that kinda stuff (if you wanna try to get things a bit farther...compliment features such as her eyes..but be unique..use poetic words..like "you have the most stunning eyes")

Forth...Be polite. Open doors..let her choose where she wants to sit...just dont over do it (last i checked...taking a girls jacket off for her was a bit TOO much)

Fifth...Laugh at her jokes..but not in a fake way...girls like smiles..so make sure you do that a lot

Sixth (and hardest)...look her in the eyes..dont be creepy about it..but make eye contact every so often.

Seventh...At the after movie gathering..wherever it may take place...ask her about herself. What she likes..whats her favorite things..how did she like the movie...i mean..you ARE interested in her....show it!

eigth...Get her home on time Dont want the parents hating you

ninth...make sure she knows you had a good time...chances are shes just as nervous as you are about impressing.....so say it

and finally....just have a good time..dont be uptight..just go with it. You are your own best judge of whats going on and what direction to take things...none of us are going to be there with you..and none of us know this girl....you gotta trust yourself. Dont be afraid of strikeing out..it happens to us all. Learn from the experience...


.....just a heads up..when i was your age...i was a TOTAL disaster

I actually got a pat on the back once :brick: . I did get a call back for a second date, but again it ended with a pat on the back . I don't know, I think he was afraid of me. :lookaroun I would've been happy with a hug :lol: .

Nowinc, you seem like a pro. :king:

 

[General Grizz]

use poetic words..like "you have the most stunning eyes"

Grizzly's advice: Never ask Dan for poetic phrases.

I am a 17 year old guy who has never been on a date before . Tomorrow night I am probably going out with some girl from school. I live in a suburban town where the only thing to really do is go see a movie or go to the mall. What movie should I take my date to see? I was thinking of King Arthur. I've already seen Dodgeball, Anchorman, and Spider-man. Opinions would be appreciated!

I did not go out on my first date till I was 18. So dont feel bad. I would not go to the movies first. Go out to eat dinner and talk to get to know the person. Then go to the movies. But everyone always go to the movies on the first date. Why not try somehhing different like mini golf or ice skating or even rollerskating. Try something differnt or unique, heck even laser tag if it is near your house.

eigth...Get her home on time Dont want the parents hating you

Hmmm...does getting the girl home on time make her parents invisible to the fact that you wear more makeup than the girl AND her mother combined? :lol:

 

[DisneyJill]

I would throw in my two cents, but I don't think I am currently in a position to offer stellar dating advice. But if you need advice on the best movies to rent from Blockbuster on a Wednesday nite, I'm your girl. :lookaroun

Seriously. Have fun. Dating shouldn't be complicated at 17. Wait till you're in your (groan) mid-twenties for that.

(And do not hug her good-bye. She will go home and call every one of her good friends and tell them that you hugged her, and trust me, you don't want to be "that guy." You never want to be the hugger.) :wave:

Oh, and if you go mini-golfing, don't fall down. You don't want to be that guy either. :lookaroun :lol: :lol: :lol: :kiss:

 

[WDWFREAK53]

Oh god...no...do NOT fall down (that's why I didn't recommend going bowling!)

 

[AliciaLuvzDizne]

im sticking with my movie first dinner after.
are you really going to be able to discuss mini golf just in case conversation goes into a lul?? "oooh that windmill was a HOOT!!"

at least if you see a movie you'll have some things to discuss "oooh how cool was that part when the guy went to the place with the thing and did that cool thing!??" see?? ooh and also yeah compliment her on her outfit and how you think she's beautiful... thats good too

have fun let us know what you did

 

[Number_6]

And remember... if you go mini-golfing, you do not wear the same type of things you would to a regular golf course. No plaid or checked trousers!! :lol:

 

[Wilt Dasney]

...or a simple hug will do :wave: .

Anything to be friendly....

*spreads arms wide*

Hey, where'd she go? :lookaroun

 

[CaptainMichael]

Ok...........so here is what happened. First of all, thank you all for the suggestions, I'll try to give everyone positive points.

When I got home from work, I waited till band camp was over for her and called her. She wanted to see a movie, and we both decided on King Arthur. So then she asked her parents if it was alright, and they were fine with it. So here comes the point where I ask, "When should I come pick you up?" She said".....oh, my sister is gonna bring me" and I say,"Well I can come get you" her,"No, thats alright my sister wants to see the movie too"
So now I'm thinking hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.........?

I arrive at the movie theater at 6:55 and wait outside till 7 when the movie starts. I think, "well maybe she is already inside" so, I go in. There are 5 people in the movie theater and none of them look like her........so, I sit down and start watching the previews. Her and her friend walk in 5 min. late. She looked very beautiful. The movie had already started, so there was no opportunity to talk.

I behaved myself throughout the movie because I haven't a clue what I am doing at all.......plus I'm shy as Hell and her friend was there.

After the movie is over she immediately calls her mom and like two minutes later the mom is already there. I told her it was good seeing her and I enjoyed the movie. She said that she did too.

And then I drove home, confused to say the least. I have no idea what happened tonight??? Didn't seem like a date to me....she drug a friend along, and we never got to talk. My theory is that her parents are very protective and wanted somebody there to keep me in check. I'm harmless and if I had been able to pick her up, I would have gladly talked to her mom and dad and made a good impression.
Thoughts anyone? King Arthur is a good movie, I'd recommend it.

First dates are usually nerve wrecking and she probably felt she needed support and having her friend with her made her feel better. That's how it was for me and my friends in high school. Why not ask her for a second date and see what she says. Maybe you can suggest meeting her parents so they can see what a nice guy you are.

Meeting parents....every man's Everest.

 

[CaptainMichael]

I get along with adults better than I do with people my own age! Meeting the parents would not be a problem. At least I would have been able to pick her up and bring her home, a good chance to talk or go get a snowball.

I know how that feels lol...I get along better w/ adults, too! If only the girls would grow up That sounded like a pretty neutral first date...mine was horrible, cuz I ended up in the relationship from hell lol...next girl...none of that!
