Guys. Describe the steps of your typical date.

From when you ask her, to when you pick her up, to what you do (in other words, are you a gentleman and open doors for her, etc. and describe things like that), what you do when you take her back home?

Also any blunders (and how she reacted to them).

Here is mine to give you an idea what I mean.



I usually ask her if she has plans for a certain day. If she does not, then if she want to have dinner. I like to let her select the place (within reason).

Before I get there, I will stop someplace and buy some flowers (usually three roses in her favorite color). This is something I do on every outing I consider a date.

When we leave I always open the door for her and make sure she is seated. We then proceed to the place we agreed on.

When we arrive, I like to once again open doors for her. Then, when we decide on what to eat, she orders first.

We talk and eat. Then (on the first date this is the test) I ask her if she wants to do a movie or something. If she wants to just go home, that may be an indication she thinks I am Lou Zuhr. If she wants a movie, again, I let her select.

While she is in the ladies room (which usually happens) I pay.

We go to the movie and maybe walk around before or after. Then I take her home.

We will talk for a bit, then a light peck of a kiss, then goodnight and I usually tell her I enjoyed the evening and ask if she has plans for the next weekend.

I then go home.

Sidenote: 90% of the dates I have had, the next day I have gotten a dear John email.
