I'm highly considering asking this chick out to the regular movie-type thing, followed by heading to a hookah bar on a Saturday night(Belly dancers and free shisha refills 'til 11:00 pm!). I love the vibe and it's totally an awesome setting to end up at the end of the night.

I should probably get more creative than just a movie though... Hm...

yea. get a list of abandoned buildings and go infiltrating instead of to the movies. You could end up in jail :P Best way to end the first date.

If spooning leads to forking, does infiltrating lead to penetrating?

toeing that ENTP/INTP line. But you can rely on me to be extra obnoxious in most situations...

Best date would have to be between picnic under the stars and go cart racing(they were the kind that got up to 30 mph)

But it's funner to tell my worst date. My by far worst date was when I went deep sea fishing with a guy. I spent about 18 hours with the man from start to finish with driving, and I was certain by the end of it that I had no desire to continue seeing him. It's a great example though of how it doesn't matter how extravagant or simple the date is, it's the connection of the people that truly matter. He wouldn't even bait my hook for me; I must have baited over 20 squid by the end of that trip. :frown: I was covered in blood, and before that I wouldn't even bait a simple worm by myself. But even then, a different person would have yielded a different result.

Sometimes a single word comes to mind. I read this and thought 'wow, Raw'. You got to see him him raw. A man baiting a hook for a female is considerate. One who does not (at least offer to) is one that life will be served up raw with.

I would have taken a pass too.

Ya.. I agree. I have learned a lot since that situation. I have learned to trust my intuition/gut. I knew going into that date that I wouldn't enjoy it, and I still went along. I felt like I "should" be dating and gave the guy a chance. But you're right I am self sufficient in a lot of things, but he flat out refused to bait my hook even once. I probably would have eventually done it myself, but the offer would have been nice. He spent over $300 on that trip, and we didn't catch a single fish. Go figure.

You got to see him raw is what I was thinking.

I'd love to know why what I am thinking does not hit the keyboard. In fact I miss entire words while typing and while reading. As far as I know I never did that while hand writing. I always read a sentence in fast moving glance. Slow does not work.

I love doing a little urban exploration... though jail is usually more of a 2nd date kind of thing with me. :wink:

Picking nits is still part of bonding.

Awesome dates are less planned and slightly unpredictable.

I went to the zoo in the rain once last summer in rubber boots. It was very fun. Also things like walks in the woods, around lakes, with dogs, etc. Went shooting - to a range. That was cool. Then impromptu to an Asian Market to browse around all the gross stuff (no offense... but there was some really bizarre things going on.) Activities that are casual and relatively unplanned. I dislike going on a series of formal dinner dates. I also dislike dates that are always the same - to a bar every Friday night, etc. Dates can also happen at all hours and not just Fri/Sat at 7pm or later. A combination of conversation and activity is always good.

Ooooh a shooting range sounds like a blast! I've been on a group date to laser tag. I think paintball would be fun too. I'm going to go look up shooting ranges now.... the other day I had a strong desire to take boxing lessons. I'm still thinking about it, but I don't have a place to hang the bag.
