Many of us remember, appreciate and long for the days of traditional dating. You know, proper courting. Yes, way before the world of swiping left and right, meeting solely for the purpose of one-night stands and the agony that is online dating, the game of love had, well, actual rules. Sort of.

We asked our Facebook followers to reminisce about some of the things they miss most about dating -- back in the day -- and we got an outpouring of responses. Here's what it seems we're all missing out on in the modern age:

1. There were no sexpectations.

We won't be naive and say premarital sex never happened but sex on a first date wasn't really expected. The night ended after the bill was paid and you said your goodnights. Reader Tricia Scott said she misses not having any mention of sex at all. OK -- maybe just a kiss goodnight.

2. Men were expected to be chivalrous.

OK -- so not every woman appreciates having the door held for them or getting help putting on her coat. But some of our readers said they longed for the charm of old-fashioned mannerisms. "Something you do to be polite and attentive. It can be done on a date, or when getting together with a friend. I do it for my friends all the time just to show appreciation," said reader Christine Boone.

3. Men put effort into their appearance.

Guys, if we spend hours picking out an outfit and perfecting our hair, at least have the decency to scrub up a little. Iron your shirt. And at least run a comb through your hair. As reader Lycia Chiang put it, "Dress as if they are going on a date with a woman, not a bar with his buddies. Put a little effort into it."

4. You could expect flowers.

Either when the guy arrived to pick the woman up -- or perhaps the day after a date -- flowers were the way to show someone you liked them. Oh, and love letters were nice, too.

5. Your date paid attention to you, not to his/her phone.

There's nothing worse than talking to someone who is only making eye contact with their phone. The world is not going to end if you don't check your messages for an hour. And if you really must check, excuse yourself to do so. "Don't constantly check your phone for texts or to surf," said reader Deborah Hitayezu. "That can wait until I go to the washroom with my phone where I'm doing the same thing." Good advice.

6. Men always insisted on picking up the tab.

Reader Lori Kilma said it was nice when the man "insisted" on paying the bill. Other readers shared the same sentiment. It certainly takes away from the slight awkwardness of splitting the check. Perhaps whoever does the asking out should offer to pay -- at least on the first date.

7. There was no talk about your sexual history.

When you overshare about all the notches in your belt, we can only assume you're over-compensating. According to reader Deborah Hitayezu, this can only be bad. You either wind up feeling insecure about your own sexual experience or wondering if you're being compared to all their other so-called "hot" conquests.

so to sum this up

get fly and fresh... take her out.. bring flowers... hold open doors.. pay full attention to her all night... making sure to never check your phone... also make sure to never bring up sex

then pay for everything.. drop her off and expect nothing in exchange... then later send more flowers or a love letter

:stopitslime:




do these women know it's 2015?? a woman will run all over that nikka like jackie joyner kersey

I think you're purposely being obtuse. I was brought up to be able to support myself as a single woman or someone in a relationship. Feminism gave me that choice. We don't necessarily need a lot of things in our lives but here we are.

I'm just saying, feminism isn't some big ol bogeyman. I have my gripes with it but it does have its benefits.

what he's trying to say is, simple things like independence and equal pay, come with consequences


men didn't do all these things for women cause they wanted to.... women just didnt have any fukking money

you think if women were making 100k a year and most men made 30k, that men would still be breaking the bank to take a woman out??? hell nah it'd be women in power (having money), choosing what mate they wanted to invite in, and share the wealth





but skip to today.... more men are saying "wait a damn minute, this woman makes what i make, or more, or slightly less... why am i out here spending $75 in one night, just to get to know you"

it's not like you can't pay for it... or you live at home with dad.. or you're waiting on a man to court you to move out... or something

nah you, through the uplifting of women's rights, are now close to being my equal. why am i doing this extra display of things i wouldn't do if i didn't have to, in order to win your hand.

add in the notion that you should fukk like men cause we are equal now... and now men are thinking, what the fukk am i even doing this for?

it used to be to marry you, then get the ass, then move you in, then you take care of the house and the kids

now i can get the p*ssy for netflix, a blunt and some henny... and women really think men are just going to maintain the "let me pay and do everything" just to get the same results? for what reason?

the necessity of this situation has faded and gone

Real talk why do you think they ignore those types bro? The ones that would give them the world?

Probably because these hoes are greedy
They figure if i can get him to give me the world that must mean i can find an even better guy to give me the world also

They probably also think that the guy who is willing to give them the world is somehow inferior to the guy who wouldn't give her the world

They probably think the guy that is willing is a weak man because he is actually trying

Its some really twisted thinking
