Confidence....

Impress her with your knowledge of .... fine wine, and ... exotic food! :-o

I know a great Balti house... They even serve Kingfisher lager! (just kidding).

It's all common sense advice which I've handed out to mates in the past.  Like I've said, it's more about the way confidence deserts you when you need it most - like the fickle friend that it is.

Maybe we should start a new post called "First date disasters"?

How about this one....:

A couple of months back I swapped numbers with a lass who seemed sweet and harmless enough.  

The next day my phone rang about three times, it was said lass calling me for "a chat".  No problem, but I was working at the time and tried to tactfully suggest she waits until after 5:30pm.

Minutes later a text arrives.  "What have I done wrong?"

Oh hell...  I text back to apologise for being abrupt but I was working and had a deadline to meet.

Later that evening I'm making arrangements to meet, when a text arrives "are you going to stay over tonight?".

Whoa!!!  Let's just concentrate on the first date shall we?  I gave her the benefit of the doubt and met up later that day.  There was no "spark" there, so after a couple of hours I thanked her for a most charming evening and left, despite her asking me once again if I was going to stay the night.

Next thing I get a text from her berating me for not giving enough "attention"....

OOOOoooooh! I know the type!

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that she's a Drama queen as well, and if you knew her for more than a few weeks and tried to leave, you'd get that "I thought you loved me" accusation over and over.

I can go forth with a smile on my face (and chocolate in my pocket, but we'll keep quiet about that one).

"Is that a chocolate in your pocket?
.....or are you happy to see me!"

I'm happy to see you! (it also means keeping one's chocolate to oneself).

Yep, it's a foot long slightly triangular shaped and lumpy...  Do you think she'll notice my Toblerone bar I've got stashed away?

She's from Suffolk, which requires a slightly more delicate approach

FFS guys!

So have you actually gone out for this drink yet?
No wonder you're worried, posting on a forum and having everyone wait with baited breath with you! :lol:

@Cyberus

This'll make you laugh.

She postponed because she'd put her back out...  Just as I managed to do yesterday too...  We're both hobbling around with sore backs and nothing to show for it.

Can it possibly get any more comical?
