Hey fellas, I have a couple questions regarding dating. This Saturday I have a date with probably the most attractive girl that's ever agreed to a date with me. Don't get me wrong, looks are a positive thing, but I actually like her because she's interesting, and knows about the world around her, unlike other attractive females I've tried to date. I've decided to take her to a pretty laid-back eatery and then enjoy some mini-golf afterwards. If things go good, where do I go from there? I don't want to try and rush into anything because she is moving to Washington DC at the end of June, but will be back by August. So do any of you OSers have any advice that would make her consider me when she gets back from DC? Thanks in advance guys.

Re: Potential relationship question
I know it's some tired advice, but just be you.
Don't try too hard and show her a good time.
Talk to her about her trip to DC and be genuinely interested in what's going on with her. As long as you're there when she gets back and she's only gone one month.. don't see what you have to worry about.Last edited by AUChase; 05-12-2011, 12:38 AM. -
Re: Potential relationship question
Good idea on the Mini Golf. One of the best things to do on a first date or any date imo. Is she moving to DC for good, then coming back to visit?PSN: buckeye02Comment

Re: Potential relationship question
From the way I understood it, she was just going to live there for the summer, and then come back for school.Boston Red Sox

Re: Potential relationship question
I wouldn't sweat the DC thing man. If this is your first date with this girl (which is the impression I got from your initial post) then your thinking way too far ahead with this. Concentrate on what's gonna happen on Saturday. Just be yourself and have fun. Also follow AUChase's advice, everything he said was spot on.Patriots

Re: Potential relationship question
With the mini golf you have to make it a fun competition
Personally, I would make it a point to say that something needs to be wagered on the match.
For the first date I would say she has to kiss me on the cheek if she loses. Obviously I'd be flirting about how I was going to whoop her rear in the match because I want that kiss.
Don't even talk about the DC trip unless she brings it up. Think about the night and having a great time, not the future. That's when you get in trouble.

Re: Potential relationship question
Go on the date looking to have fun, not necessarily progress into a relationship.
If you enjoy flirting and that kind of thing, go for it.
Just don't try to center your night around making her like you.Comment

Re: Potential relationship question
If you don't enjoy flirting you better start.
Find me one girl that doesn't like flirting? If you do you also found a liar.
BTW since she is so attractive...I'd honestly playfully cut her down a time or two. Key word: playfully
Example:
YOU: Oh yea hey...did you pick out those shoes?
HER: Uhhh...yea...why?
YOU: No reason just thought they were...interesting.
HER: What does that mean!?!
YOU: I'm just kidding they look good hahaha, I like them.
HER: OMG I love you hehehe
Ok maybe not that last line but seriously...that stuff is great for girls. I bet she gets so many white knight compliments it is sickening.Last edited by NDAlum; 05-12-2011, 06:05 PM.SOS Madden League (PS4) | League Archives

Re: Potential relationship question
That's not what I'm saying.
I'm just saying, if you feel the need to flirt, do it.
Basically, don't force it. If you don't feel like getting overly flirty on a first date, don't.
It's a first date. Go to have fun, not to secure your future wife.Comment

Re: Potential relationship question
Have fun and don't be afraid to be a little goofy or a little competitive. Girls like a guy that has a sense of humor and confident in themselves.
Do you know what her favorite candy or flower is? If so, it wouldn't hurt to get one of them. Just shows that you've been paying attention and thoughtful.
ND's advice is spot on. Don't put her on a pedestal or try too hard. The absolute worst date I've ever been on was when I felt like I was out of my league and it showed. Needless to say, I didn't get a 2nd chance to make a first impression.Comment
