Originally posted by northernladuk View PostIt's a fine line and one that can only be met by pure luck. I did the dating thing for quite a while for a period awhile ago and it's impossible to get right. I always though first date over a meal was the best way as you could talk about the food if the date wasn't going well. I then get told by numerous girly friends that they don't want a meal as if they don't want to be there they are stuck. Poppycock I though. A couple of weeks later I go on a date at the Trafford Centre and my date goes to the loo after the starter and ****s off. Embarrassing at the time but a great story. To save my blushes she text me from the car park saying she had an attack of the nerves can we do it again. My reply consisted of off and **** in no particular order.
I did however, expect to pay for the meal. Although being as tight as a gnats chuff I am a bit of an old gent and believe paying for the meal is my job. I learnt to offer, if she said no argue it once and if she said no again then let it be. I can respect modern women wanting to go dutch. Thing is, hands up how many guys have copped a withering stare from women for not holding the door open? I mean, if you want to go dutch then you can open your own ******* door as well. Can't have it both ways.
So... after the meals polava and some advice from an introduction agency first date was always over a coffee with a set time so the lady knew there was a get out, say an hour. If she liked the company she could stay but that was the exception. If she didn't she knew there was a get out with no embarrassing excuses. What happens? All my lady friends called it clinical and where is the romance? **** me. Can't bloody win.

Originally posted by socialworker View PostI only ever sneaked out of a date once. Met the bloke halfway up a Welsh mountain and agreed to meet him for pub dinner later. Met in large busy pub, got funny gut feeling about him, said I was going to the ladies and snuck out. Later found he had been trying to track me down , creepy.
I'd be mortified if a woman did that to me.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
