The first time I took my wife out, she really didn't speak English nearly as good as she does now. She surprised me when we were walking by a rowdy country-Western party at a brew-pub and said she wanted to go in and see what it was like. We had a blast and really seemed to enjoy everything. Of course folks were just fine with us as well. It was just something I didn't expect. Being that most of my family is of Southern decent, it was a good sign.
I remember that date clearly above all others, she was wearing a deep green white polka-dot dress that drove me crazy. The first thing I said when she opened the door was "Oh WOW..." : )
