Originally posted by northerwesteagle I think you have to be realistic ..What exactly do you want out of a relationship as a first date isnt going to show you exactly what she is and what she is about. I was in a relationship and our first date was a disaster. I didnt fancy him at all and it seemed we had nothing in common but i decided on a second date and we ended up having so much fun and spent quite a lot of years together and i grew to fancy him daft as that sounds .sadly he had a stroke years later and things went downhill as i became his carer for a few years but we remain best of friends to this day. You will never get a true impression of somebody on a first date, it takes time and you usually find its those that really didnt impress you first time round that turn out to be the ones you bond with the most.Dont forget a first date is nerve wrecking and you dont know the other person well enough to know what makes them tick so you of course do try to just do what you think is expected of you and usually you come across as totally the opposite lol. If you can laugh and she enjoys your banter you are half way there as that is one of the most impcortant things in any relationship, (old head on here lol). Thats where online dating comes into its own I think,you can spend a bit of time talking and seeing if you like the same sort of things. It makes a difference,mind you spent a few weeks talking to a woman online once getting on really well,we met and she was a complete loon....bunny boiler of the first degree. always a Norwood boy, where ever I live.

Seriously though..have had a few the same in the past...but you have to meet i think and get to know personally. With guys..dont give out too much imfo job car etc. thats when you get gold diggers. Play your life down a bit. If she is a decent lady she will stick around for you not what you can give her. I had a guy once rambled on about his flash car, his house and it just put me off totally..yawn yawn. I wanted to know about him and all i could see was he was about money and not all ladies are about that as blokes seem to think. A lady usually wants someone that shows her affection and can have a good laugh. If all you do is pour out about what you have financially then thats the sort of lady you will get.

Within the first minute of meeting one on-line date (she brought plants with her) I knew all about her lost cat and sh1tty day so far. Wonderfully 'not normal': So I married her.

The true secret I think to a successful relationship is not 'the person you love the most' but the person you couldn't imagine never seeing again. My wife turned up with a can of Fanta Grape for me on my first date, and she was right, it was 'the best drink I'd never tried'. We then went on a 'worst best date experience of London(culminating in dinner at a Mexican restaurant that played brutally loud techno). The curmudgeonly middle aged paradise.

Does anyone have an opinion about fish? I liked dates where you do something you'd otherwise never do, so if it was a 'bad fit', you could always have a new experience. Went go-karting once on a date, on the basis neither of us had ever done it, or really thought about it. "One Nation Under God, has turned into One Nation Under the Influence of One Drug" [Link]

Went go-karting once on a date, on the basis neither of us had ever done it, or really thought about it. Yeah but she had a face like a bulldog trying to fellate a wasp. And she turned up in harem pants. I dunno who her profile photo was of, but it looked a lot better than her. She seemed to have an opinion on fish. I have to admit, I made no effort. She'd go "look at that one" and I'd look at another f*king fish and just shrug. Bizarrely, despite how much of complete tsser I was for the entire date, afterwards she started talking to me about how I should meet her friends and family.
