Dating advice required

Blimey....a lot to take on board there....all good stuff and noted thanks....I was thinking about asking her out on a lunchtime date at first....bit less full on and not so stressful.....thoughts?

yep, sounds good to me! she can wear her comfy shoes without being worried you'll think she bats for the other team also, no pressure. but the next date needs to be more romantic. if she agrees to a next date, she's interested.

 

[ColinJ]

Agree, best not to text as messages can be misinterpreted and it is more personal.
She has given you her phone number so it's a good indication she is interested.

How about a short text to say you'd like to ring for a chat - when would be convenient?

 

[buggi]

I dunno, but a lot of that sounds like it was lifted from a dating guide from the 1950s.

and your point is??? Nothing wrong with being an old time gentleman! it's refreshing and sets you apart from the usual types.

A week to 'get an outfit together' - blimey, doesn't she already own any clothes?

As for high-heeled shoes ... I would suggest that she turn up we aring walking boots and to bring waterproofs, in case the weather turned nasty on our 10 mile hilly hike!

Mind you - what do I know about this dating marlarkey - I'm 2.5 years off 60 and still single!

Cheers Colin.....that made I laff

yea that would be ok. but then do phone coz i would expect a REAL man to have the balls not to hide behind a text. also, that goes for when you want to dump her ass

Hmm, why do I have vivid memories of phoning someone who eventually told me that I had spoiled her Friday evening TV viewing by ringing unexpectedly ...?

my most memorable date was someone who treated me like he was out the 1950s. mostly because he then turned out to be the best shag ever.

Therefore it translates that a gentlemen who puts your needs first out of the bedroom, puts your needs first in the bedroom. Women know this. the ones that don't know it will come to know it and set it as a benchmark for all future dates. Doesn't matter what year it is.

Maybe I'm still 70s child expecting phone call although a short text would probably break the ice.

 

[buggi]

Hmmm, note that the women on here want a phone call, the men are copping out with a text.

This is why you asked women for advice, not men! trust us!

 

[BigonaBianchi]

Just give her a call and be yourself. If she says no give her my number.

My point is it's rubbish, cliched advice!

Yes I see what you are getting at now.....but at the moment i'm not even thinking "bedroom" but I've been a gentleman with women I've been involved with... I hope this chap kept up his standards with you after your bedroom antics and getting his wicked way ?
