For me it was the neighborhood. The girls were mean. How mean were they? They were so mean that when you took them home after a date.............they'd stab you goodnight!

Bada boom!

I always hated guys who thought my face was their personal ice cream cone. Lick, lick, lick, tongue, tongue, tongue. Posititvely gross.

Here's how you torpedo one before you're able to even go on one. Just got back from my regular pub gig here in Shanghai. There are some very hot Filipino bartenders who I've been idly flirting with, and who I usually drag up to sing with us. They usually do after a lotta cajoling.

But tonight my Filipino jam buddy brought his three roommates with him - three professional Filipino singers - and we ended up doing the songs the other girls usually do. We are in deep kimchee, as we've been informed.

Taking a woman out to dinner at a nice restaraunt and then turning into one of those "I don't believe in tipping" guys is a real killer. I had to explain this to a buddy of mine as he was dismayed why this nice girl he went out with never called him back.

Add to that list:

Men who are loud.

Men who are bad tippers/cheap.

Remember gentlemen, there are still some of us women out there that admire chivalry qualities in a man.

The worst I had was after a couple of daytime lunches where she met me at work.

For our first"real" date she forgot to send me directions to her house and I had to call her that morning to get them.

When I got to her place she announced that we would have to pick up her sister at the airport as she was flying back from a trip to Los Angeles.

We had a quick dinner,picked up her sister(who I had never met) and went to a bar nearby

The two of them sat there talking about her trip for about an hour and a half while I sat there.

The music was so loud you had to scream to be heard so there wasn`t much chance of joining the conversation.

Thought I had somehow gone to hell.

Did you ever let yourself get talked into going on a date only to discover within the first two minutes you'd rather be any place on this Earth than on the date?

Well, Help is at hand......

Just follow any of these tips:

  • At dinner, guard your plate with fork and steak knife, so as to give the impression that you'll stab anyone, including the waiter, who reaches for it.

  • Collect the salt shakers from all of the tables in the restaurant, and balance them in a tower on your table.

  • Wipe your nose on your date's sleeve. Twice.

  • Make funny faces at other patrons, then sneer at their reactions.

  • Repeat every third third third word you say say say.

  • Read a newspaper or book during the meal. Ignore your date.

  • Stare at your date's neck, and grind your teeth audibly.

  • Twitch spastically. If asked about it, pretend you don't know what they are talking about.

  • Stand up every five minutes, circle your table with your arms outstretched, and make airplane sounds.

  • Order a bucket of lard.

  • Ask for crayons to color the placemat. This works very well in fancier venues that use linen tablecloths.

  • Recite your dating history. Improvise. Include pets.

  • Pull out a harmonica and play blues songs.

  • Sacrifice french fries to the great deity, Pomme.

  • When ordering, inquire whether the restaurant has any live food.

  • Without asking, eat off your date's plate. Eat more from their plate than they do. Drool.

  • Recite graphic limericks to the people at the table next to you.

  • Ask the people at the neighboring table for food from their plates and Ask your date how much money they have with them.

  • Communicate in mime the entire evening.

  • Upon entering the restaurant, ask for a seat away from the windows, where you have a you have a good view of all exits, and where you can keep your back to the wall. Act nervous.

  • Lick your plate. Offer to lick theirs.

  • Hum. Loudly. In monotone.

  • Hold a debate. Take both sides.

  • Slide under the table. Take your plate with you.

  • Order a baked potato for a side dish. When the waiter brings your food, hide the potato, wait a few minutes, and ask the waiter for the potato you "never got". When the waiter returns with another potato for you, have the first one back up on the plate. Repeat later in the meal.

  • Speak in pig latin throughout the meal

  • Take a break, and go into the restroom. When you return to the table, throw a spare pair of underwear on the back of one of the chairs. Insist that they just need airing out.

  • If they are paying, order the most expensive thing on the menu. Take one bite.

  • Bring 20 or so candles you, and during the meal get up and arrange them around the table in a circle. Chant.

  • Save the bones from your meal, and explain that you're taking them home to your invalid, senile old mother, because it's a lot cheaper than actually feeding her.

  • Take a thermos along, and hide it under the table. Order coffee, and fill the thermos one cup at a time, taking advantage of the free refills.

  • Insist that the waiter cuts your food into little pieces. In a simliar vein, insist that he take a bite of everything on the plate, to make sure no one poisoned it.

  • Accuse your date of espionage.

  • Make odd allusions to dangerous religious cults.

  • Don't use any verbs during the entire meal.

  • Pass the hat in the restaurant. Use the proceeds (if any) to pay the bill.

  • Feed imaginary friends, or toy dolls you've brought along.

  • Bring a bucket along. Explain that you frequently get ill.

"First Date"??

A lady wearing Birkenstocks, sweats, chipped nail polish, talking with cigarette in mouth, swearing during the first few minutes of conversation, and then ordering a Jack Daniels...

Lol, what a TURN ON!

I'll tell ya what's a dating turnoff from this guy's perspective although I've been married for nearly a decade. It's women that expect to have sex after the second date and are willing to go nearly that far on the first date. Even in the '90s it seemed that you couldn't just go out and find out about each other. I'm certainly not unattractive nor were the women I dated, and some were very nice otherwise. But the expectation these days is almost that you have to have sex at some point in the dating relationship.

Some guys reading this I'm sure think I'm nuts, and frankly, for guys looking for a temp relationship with "sexual benefits," I'm sure it is.

A couple of the women that I dated back then quit dating me b/c I wouldn't have sex with them early in the relationship. Nice and attractive girls, just very needy in that way apparently. Others asked me why I didn't think they were attractive when I told them they were.

Is this where women find their value these days as women, in whether or not men will have sex with them as the basis for a validation of their attractiveness? Apparently so, at least by my experiences.

I dated on girl who I specifically told I just wanted to have fun together and to not misconstrue that as a lack of romantic interest. I also specifically told her that I did not want to be physically involved. On the second date, we're at her place, and she comes out of the bathroom after excusing herself for a few minutes, in lingerie and then jumps on top of me. Needless to say, I'm human and man, but in hindsight, I didn't appreciate it.

At the time, and after some "intimate dating" myself, I figured women would love to date a guy that didn't want to have sex immediately. I found out that I was entirely wrong.

I don't get it! Women bitch that all men want to have sex and they just want to have fun, but by my somewhat extensive experiences, I've found the opposite to be true, at least practically speaking. Is it that we have so little self control in our society that our basest instincts always overcome our moral desires?

Anyone can feel free to chime in...

My first date was awesome. We (my husband now :)) went to an Italian restaurant for our first date. Before we were seated the waiter referred to me as his wife. We looked at each other with big smiles because someone would assume that. We had a great meal, wonderful conversation and are now married. Everywhere we went from then on, everyone always thought we were married. We thought that was so neat, guess it was a sign hehe..

My worst date was also with my husband, although none of what happened was his fault. He was very helpful, caring and calming throughout the whole ordeal.
