Going on 1st date in 13 years. How have the rules changed?
Recently divorced.
Been to numerous lunch dates. Lunch dates are safe, cause in a hour you go back to work. Didn't like any of them anyway. This new woman may be different. We've spent 10-20 hours on the phone and I'm going to Vegas to meet her where she is attending a trade show. I have tickets to a show. Plus we'll go somewhere to dinner. I would prefer not a buffet. SOOOOOOOOO, what has changed? Small bunch of flowers still acceptable? Ladies, what is the cologne of choice? What are the things to do, not do, say, not say?? thanks Last edited by chris; 01-13-2005 at 10:17 AM.. |

Girls like it now if you slap them on the butt and ask them "who's your daddy?"

Before I got married, I discovered to my surprise that girls no longer expect you to bring them flowers when you pick them up for a date. I was going to take a girl out and I mentioned to of my friends (both girls) that I had to run to the florist. They both thought I was completely out of my mind.
You know what else I learned though? I learned not to listen to those two, bought the flowers anyway, and the girl I was taking out was absolutely bowled over by it. I never failed to take flowers on the first date after that. Of course, I haven't been on a date in 8 years, so that may have changed, too... but I'd bet most women would still appreciate it. |

She could go insane, and well then you probably won't score. Which is the goal. Never lose sight of the goal. |

Dump the flowers and the chocolates- that's for teenagers going to a dance.
Here's a foolproof plan- Show up at the door with a bottle of tequila and bring a copy of Led Zeppelin IV. Later on, when she invites you into her bedroom to show you her photo album that's when you "go for it"

It is a trip! went through the same thing. Being a gentleman still seems to work. However be prepared things have changed! women will walk up and ask you to dance, or walk up and give you their phone number or ask you for yours. It is a different game nowdays.

Just relax, be yourself, and have a good time. Wear whatever cologne you normally wear, if any. If you've already spent a lot of time on the phone with her, you're a leg up on anybody else going on a first date because you kinda know her. Keep it simple - no need to go overboard on flowers or candy - I think a first date woman would be equally impressed with the simplicity of a solitary flower.
There's absolutely no reason to be nervous. If this one isn't right for you, you move on to the next one. Do you get nervous trying on shoes? Same concept. |
