BTW girls really like a man with muscles, sphincter muscles that can break wind in an unabashed yet artful manner. A good long and rapturous fart is a good ice breaker on a first date. :D
Phsah! Last time I dated was 22 years ago, now been single for 12 years.
I ain't single, that's the bad thing :p
13 years of hell :D
Oh, no. Every time you turn up something monumental and terrible happens.
I don’t think I have the stomach for it.

2 of my friends (well their g/f's ) tried to set me up with 2 of their friends..
one was really boring, so I just got totally smashed :p . friends (now wife) said the woman was a nasty piece of work she found out later. I said I could tell within 5 minutes of meeting her.
other turned out to be the village bike, was well funny a friend had knew her and "had a go".. he said if shes got odd shaped boobs, it's the same girl.. and she did :lol: . I said oh you worked X Y Z place and she was shocked I knew. she was a pot head and a goldfish had a better short term memory. I told her, want me to get a name badge :lol: . ended up I went back to her place, and her flatmate were there and they just sat smoking dope.. I didn't smoke but got high off the fumes.lol
the rest of the dates, well they are for the book :p . women moan about blokes being wrong'uns but there are plenty of women out there who are well , not so nice to be around.
Well, i've been on the first date and it went not bad, we went to a bar and chatted for a couple of hours and seemed to get on well. As we were leaving i asked if she wanted to see me again and she said 'we'll sort something out'. We exchanged numbers and i'll give her some time and see if she wants to go out again.
So, all in all it went fine. The ball's in her court now.
In Portugal we always greet with 2 (sometimes 1) kisses in the cheek... that's nice to break the ice (not sure how that would work in the UK).
Don't take flowers... it's a first date for a coffe, if you look to serious & old fashion it will show how long you've not been on a date (and how nervous you are).
Pay the coffe, that's enough of a nice gesture (Girls don't usually go for "nice guys" on the first date, and Flowers say: "i'm a goody boy" all over).
Be confident, funny and polite... just be your self!
(and for god's sake, NO MAGIC!)
I would say "good luck", but I'm sure you'll ace it!

Yep, works for me too. Round here, girls are usually greeted with "alright love, fancy a drink?", I usually find that they're quite pleasantly surprised when I give them a peck on the cheek (sometimes two - I'm Spanish after all ;)) and ask them their name. Manners don't cost anything. :)

:lol:
This really has made me laugh! I have a mate called Mike. Lovely bloke. We call him "Magic Mike" because he always carries a box of magic tricks around with him, and always has ever since I've known him. He is very, very good with tricks, but it's never worked for him as an ice-breaker - it usually just makes for very awkward (and very funny) moments. :grin:

I've used a similar 'ice breaker' here in the US....I tell them it's customary to kiss me on the cheek being that I'm European, then as they move in to kiss my cheek I quickly turn and get it on the mouth...so far it's 100% successful at making them laugh.
What's a date? I've never been on a date....although no I did take one girl to the flicks to see Turner and Hooch when I was 11 or something? :lol:
If I wasn't married I know here in the US I could have the pick of the pussy literally because of my accent, chicks are all over me, back home I guess I was average, because I had to get lucky to get lucky :D

I know what you mean. My wife will never stop off in a small town in the middle of nowhere cafe, due to too many 'incidents' from waitresses and the like who had taken an interest in me. In once instance ....., I'd never seen my wife eat so quick. lol.
Same here, and on top of the accent I'm good looking too....
yes, in america you are considered thin. :-D
gotta agree with you though on the 'we'll sort something out' line. fair do's is she has kids and has to get back, but it does sound a bit non commital. only zx1 can find out for sure.
I asked her if she wanted to swap numbers and she seemed happy to do that and yes, i got a photo of her to show my mum (who i haven't told yet).
I'm waiting on a reply to see if she wants to see me again, but no reply yet........:sad:
And i tested the number when she gave me it and her phone rang!

when you took her pic, you didn't say it was to show your mum did you?
I told her my mum had asked what she looked like so i asked if i could take a piccy and said ok.
Its the truth! Honest!

nope! I did mention i used to work with 5.25" floppy disk drives though!:smile:
Sounds like you made rapid progress.

though I'd be concerned about ending the date with a glasgow kiss second time round ;-P

that'll teach yas to speed read :)
quite the opposite , most decent women will say nothing and 90% won't give false hope
In my neck of the woods that's a nice way of saying 'hell no'.
yes, in america you are considered thin. :-D

We all had a date on Thursday...i decided not to break the mould and called mine "The 7th of June".
:razz:
Seriously though, how far did you get? Piccies??
:grin:
well my columbo skills say, why would she have given old zx1 her number if it was a no no ;)
it's weird seeing steam saying "piccies or it didn't happen" thats normally associated with Mile :lol:
when he gets through to 'mohammed's balti house' he will get the answer. :p
I'm waiting on a reply to see if she wants to see me again, but no reply yet........:sad:
And i tested the number when she gave me it and her phone rang!

C'mon Mile...that'd be silly!
We all know telling her it's for the "spank bank" is the only true answer to this.
Its the truth! Honest!

...have I crossed a line...?
