Best wow date is when a friend asked if I wanted to take the plane to see tso. Another good 1st date we spent 6 1/2 hours talking at olive garden. Guys can plan a good date and it be nice. Scenic trips, car shows, festivals, etc are free or cost very little. In the past I've had guys who want to meet without an actual date. Like a woman is going to fall in love with you standing in a parking lot.

My personal opinion is to have a little understanding of her personality and what she likes. Good communication to start thing's off, without being to critical of the small things, since no one's perfect.

The "Where" could be a signular place or numerous places depending on available of time and interests each shared.

The "How" is be op;en enough to ask and to accept the offer. Why run from what each individual is generally searching for in life.

The "When" probably with in a short period of time of being introduced to each other. Why waste time just talking without actually communicating face to face (unless distance is involved).

The first date is about making an impression upon the other person, but also accepting them as an individual. A simple coffee and walk, to a dinner and theater/concert date.

Two people have to take the chance too know each other, regardless of personal concerns if the other will like them.

first of all, it would depend upon said woman. I would ask enough questions to get a general idea what she is into before choosing such a task. with that being said, and if the situations where based upon my own choices because she was into that, I would choose some place comfortable and relaxing like a Red Robin/Outback/special little ma and pa Italian shop/thai food.



if she was comfortable having me pick her up we would go that route. if not, she would have to meet me there.



when she is into me enough to bug me via text, phone call, meeting up online nightly.

She has to be into you before youd want to date her?

I think, I gonna date myself from now on. At least, I know what to expect, and I can't disappoint others

Potatoes are great you can make many things with them how do you know said couch potato couldn't turn into something great

Hum? I must be special. A woman fell in love with me sitting on the tailgate of my truck at the Ingles Grocery store parking lot. She loves me to this day. It took me several years to catch on. But when I finally did, I realized that a person falls in love at the drop of a hat. They either like you that way or they don't.

It doesn't matter where you go or what you do when you are with the right person. Falling in love with someone doesn't follow any certain plan. You can plan dates that you know for sure is going to WOW her/him. And yes, if you happen to fall in love with that person you'll remember that date. But that doesn't mean that certain date is what made you fall in love.

My sister, when she married 35 years ago, what made her fall in love with her husband, he stood in the pouring rain and held an umbrella over her head so she wouldn't get wet. She had locked herself out of her car. He stood there and got soaked to his socks so she wouldn't have to.

And this all happened in the parking lot where they both worked. Love will find you anywhere. Even in a parking lot. It's all about the right people meeting at the right time. It's not about a well-planned date. It's about two people that want to be together, being together. Where doesn't matter. Where you meet doesn't matter either.

I met my 1st husband in a parking lot too. The difference is i was 16 and he was hot. 6'2 brown curly hair and blue eyes. Now at m8ddle age guys aren't as attractive and it takes more than the pretty smile that he gave me. Plus ambition back then was good grades and working for gas money lol. Now if a guy wants to meet in a parking lot, it shows lack of class. If he can't afford dinner, he needs to be working on his finances instead of dating. Guys who don't want to put in any effort should have held on to the woman who didn't require any.

I agree with the poster that said, If you have to impress her she isnt the one.

If the chemistry is there, anything you do can be fun and exciting, Ive seen couples who are into each other go to Walmart and make an adventure of it, because they are into each other.

Taking her to fancy restaurants splurging on expensive wine and fancy desserts isn't going to win her heart, unless she is a gold digger and materialistic .

Too many nice guys do this, splurge to impress her, going into debt and if they end up in a relationship with her it all stops and its weekends at his house and weekends at her house and soon she gets bored.

Why not get to know her for her, do things together where you live and once in a relationship plan things to surprise her, weekend trips away, vegas ( depending on where you live of course)

I'm pretty sure it's not the cost that counts. It's the little thoughtful things that count. I've spent fortunes on dates and gone down in flames. The most memorable dates have been where I gave a lot of thought as to what she enjoys.

Its all about making a lasting impression regardless of cost and you got it sir . Thanks for posting

Op was all about romantic fantasies that may or may not happen. Yoi posted reality and i do appreciate it too sir .

Taking thate girl for a long drive with her fvrt playlist and then ask her for drinks Nd will drop her after dinner

Sir, You get it. It doesn't matter how young you are, how old you are. Or your looks, or the money you spend. It's about the right two hearts meeting. You can't build happiness from monetary things. You can't build happiness with another person from things that don't last.

And just for the record. I've been out here in this world a long time. I've been around the block more times than I care to count. I have seen some of the most unattractive men with some very pretty women. And many times I've asked myself, "How did such an unattractive man get such an attractive woman to even glance at him? Much less marry him? As it turned out, every one of them was able to see past the guys looks.

Some of them didn't care how much the guy spent on them. They didn't care what his earning potential was. They loved the man. And really, that's the key on both sides.




I respectfully disagree with part of your statement.

I think you have it backward a little about men as they get older becoming less attractive. Maybe to you? As men get older, many become more attractive to younger women. As I've gotten older I've found that women in there early 40's are attracted to me. I don't know, maybe it's the little bit of grey in my hair. Maybe, it's my "worldliness". I don't know.

The way I look at it, If it matters so much where a woman meets me, finances or if we go dutch or not, Or whether we have dinner or not, she may not be worth my time or my effort. The woman that requires very little, is usually the most attractive. Because if she requires very little and still wants to be with me, that tells me a lot. She's with me for the right reasons. She's with me because she "wants" to be with me. Those monetary things don't matter to her. The man does. One like that may be worth my time and my effort. I know one thing, I'll sure hang around to find out.
