So I have to depend on the woman knowing whether we click rather than figuring it out for myself?

A great first date?

Lunch or coffee. It's all about the conversation!

ooooh, yea!

I prefer coffee shops. Open mic. $$

Oh yea. Definitely stay away from anything extremely "date-ish". Who wants to get gussied up for someone you're not sure about? Seems like a lot of work.

Casual is better. Save the fancy stuff for the marriage!

bayareagal i agree keep it casual a lunch date or a out for coffee.

a first date go to dinner see if you guys click, then go from there.

nothing too extravagant, but not too cheap either.

how about a morning motorcycle ride in the country stopping for lunch at a roadside tavern

How about an outdoor free concert in the park and then a picnic?

ok Let's go

Ok..........be right there carebear!

I'll make the picnic I saw a great Bobby Flay show on that and have been dying to try it

hmmmmmm a mexican picnic!!!! mmmmmmmm

you would be amazed what he can do with a grill

Ohhhhhhhhh I know what he can do.....also Mario Batali and Alice Waters....

YAY Food Network

lol and Bon Apetit and Gourmet magazine!

I don't use them....I think I forgot how to read

hmm good question. i would say not to take her to a resturant first just my opinon why not go to somewhere where you can walk or take her shopping with you..to me when i go on my dates i tend to make them laugh ALOT. and i try to learn more about her. i know you people disaprove of this but i pick on her too. and for some reason the call me and tell me thats the best date they had. i mean i cant really explain why I have them come back but its not wise to ask others how to make a woman come back..

jan 1 of every year is always the great first date of the year
