So, how many women here... or men... have heard the other say, " I Can Tell After ONE Date If We're Going Anywhere."

The latest installment of mine has said.. "I can tell we are going to go far, this will work great."

I couldn't saya word I was so shocked and confused.. ha ha.. I thought the date was sucking grass.

What is this BS? One date doesn't indicate everything, it's impossible, right?!

I think after one date you can almost definately know if you aren't attracted to the other person.

However, after the first date, I don't think you will know its the person you will marry!

Tell him to slow it down! And calm it down!

If he can't or won't.... you might want to cut him off before he turns stalker or something.

2 dates.... I think... unless the first was just so horrible. I mean if he comes off as the type of prat that you wouldn't allow to be alone with your cat for five minutes... well then... there you go. Nerves can screw up a first date... I say try two.. just in case....

I've known couples who hit it out of the park from the very beginning. I have had dates that I thought were going to go well after a while then BOOM!!! Some weird unknown comes into the party and changes everything.

I met one girl who seemed nice in every way until she found out I had a Harley. She was a "Biker Hater" and thought anyone who associated with anyone who owned a motorcycle was simply "trash". Adios lady.

A lot of people have stereotyped ideas about a whole lot of topics and it takes a while to get exposed to them all.

A lot of people have skeletons in their closet and monsters under their beds.

I'd say after one date you pretty much know where it's going. That's not to say you'll never date that person again, it's like a taste test.

I suppose you are right.. I could try again.. If I am able.. He did seem anxious and did relay that to me before hand.. Thanks!

Oh don't get me wrong things can be awesome the first date around and be never ending from there.. or whatever a good ride at least.. but I am talking about those who opening say "I can tell we are going to go far, this will work great." Ha ha..

I didn't stereotype this guy.. I was open about the date and what not.. it is how he acted and assumed so much in such little time that turned me off... I was looking to date not jump in blind to a "thing" Ha ha ha.

You're welcome.

You know. If you made him nervous... that's a good thing. He's taking you seriously. Being approached as something valuable is a good thing. It's not everything but it's a start.

Goodluck. Lemme know if he's worth a second date.
