Topic: The rules of the first date | |
---|---|
This not really a question so much as an opinion needed, a woman's opinion would be appreciated, my bros going on a date tmrow night and he asked me for my advice i told him these are the rules i stick by ( not that im saying i do great but i do ok) see if you agree with the following
1) Lean back take it easy 2) Don;t offer tp pay for everything-makes it look like you're trying to buy their affection 3)Less pressure the better 4)Make her laugh 5)Don't do the whole multiple questions its boring and makes it feel like an interview just pick a topic and let it flow and thats my opinion feedback would be great. |

#4 is a must!
Multiple questions should probably be saved for later, when you are really trying to get deep. I agree wait on that. Above all, listen to her when she talks and let her know in your response that you heard what she said. Good luck to your bro! |

I like the way you think...
Heres my thing if a guy asked me out then I feel he should pay for whatever we do (unless you go into a store and I pick something up then don't offer to buy it I pick it up cuz its something I want or need). Now if I'm asking a guy out then I will pay for the evening. |

Sounds like you gave him some good advice.

Easy going seems to be the key to your 'rules' and that's always best. Let's the other person relax ..

ask if she has a back-up plan

Easy going sounds fine, so really...why "rules?"
|
|
|

when I'm on a date I kiss her first. That way you have it out of the way and the whole date isnt a lead up to the goodnight kiss

Now if I'm asking a guy out then I will pay for the evening. I agree with this, however, I always offer to pay my share, even if I'm the askee. I think the most important thing is to keep things low-key and casual for a first date, something with not much pressure. Save the big expensive restaurants for a 2nd or 3rd date. |

Tell him the only "rule" is to treat her like a lady and be himself

I agree with most of the list, but I also foot the bill for the date. I feel that if you ask her out you shouldn't be volunteering her bank account. Now, if she asks you out that's different. I'm kind of old fashioned when it comes to dating. I do the whole, "open doors, pull out chairs, open the car door, coddle to every desire, and pay for everything" mentality. Like I said though, if she asks me out it's on her dime.....even then not really but it's as close as it gets. |
