OR...maybe she just wanted him to be assertive and initiate an actual date. She did say that she wanted to get dressed up for him. Maybe she would've paid for the date. Who knows?

man, I hate that women think that they are supposed to go on a date without having to invest anything. no wonder dudes are trying to do ice cream or coffee. break the bank on a few hoes, and suddenly, you've dropped a stack with nothing to show for it.

That is business 101. Why invest a lot financially and time wise into something that you do not know much about and may not even have a good return profit? I think everyone should start of small on the first date. That can be a book store, fair, free event, gallery showing, painting and wine class, Chinese food, Carribean food, pottery class, beach walk, game night, arcade, and etc. You are just getting to know each other on the first few dates.

I remember the first time I went out with my wife. I actually offered to take her to a bar/restaurant by my crib cuz she drove all the way across town.

and I remember it to this day she said :whoa: "we can just go to mcdonalds" :gladbron:


If a woman ever says this to me, she's instant wifey material. :wow:

Ya'll just gotta be creative. First date I took my now wife on was back in college. Took her to a play I had to go to for a class I had (told her about it too). I gave her a single flower, took her to the play and then to eat at a decent spot in Lincoln Park. Couldn't have spent more than $70 total for both of us. I've taken women to street fairs/festivals, to walk the beach, ice skating, etc. Most women just want to actually do something that shows you took more than 8 seconds to think about it and had a plan.
Exactly. Lots of these dudes have little to no social skills.

We can thank social media for this huge surge in clown ass nikkadom.

The first initial contact with the person should be simple where you two get to vibe off each other and see if it's worth pursuing. Not knocking what you did, but $70 would of been expensive if that girl (your now wife) was boring and you didn't clock with her.
Not really. I actually wanted to kick it with her. Same with other women. And not saying that was a regular thing but if I wanted to pull a girl and so did everyone else, I had no issue actually coming out of pocket a little bit. OR coming up with inexpensive ideas. Shoot even going to get coffee can be interesting if you suggest a different place than Starbucks and make it seem interesting like 'this spot I love'

First dates should be stripped down to the bare essentials, something relaxed and casual so neither party is coming into the foray "fronting", neutral ground and I can see and hear you for what you are. Dinner and a movie should be ENOUGH for a first date, I'll be damned if I put down a car payment on a woman that I don't even know who's even going to make it to the "second round". Expectations should be set a modest level, if you working with McDonald's money and spend like you're working with Goldman Sachs loot, your gonna be STUCK into that until you're ass gets exposed in the end from going broke.

Put it this way: back in the day when females would ask dudes to Sadie Hawkins, if you was :ld: about a female you was only going if she was buying your gear for the matching fit AND it was something you wanted. If she's not sure if she's feeling you I ain't mad at her for saying she wants to do something interesting at least. If ya'll have coffee and she ain't into you then she wasted some time. If you take her on a carriage ride downtown at least she did something interesting. If you ain't down to spend the cheese then I ain't mad at it, I'm just not mad at her for having a requirement
Fam don't try to compare the mentality from a high school mindset to grown adults.

I can't rock with the mentality that she has to get something out of it. I'm solid enough man to know I wouldn't be on the BS. If it's not a match cool.

I would need someone more down to earth than thinking getting to know someone in a simple environment isn't worth their time. It's not even about the $.

fukk all this. What if he doesn't even like this bytch. Story time. One of my good friends invited a girl on a date. He took her to a movie, bowling and dinner. Now off the bat he did too much. But at the end of the night. This bytch had the nerve to say. I hope you don't think this was a date. I saw my future husband in a dream and it's not you. Mind you this nikka paid for everything. After my boy and I finished laughing at him we told him to never do any dumb shyt like that again.
