Alright ladies and gents, I have my first date scheduled. I thought it appropriate to announce it thanks to all of the help and advice I received on this thread. It's sort of a unique situation. She lives 280 miles away and I met her last weekend while I was visiting my father. The unique thing about the situation is that she had applied for a job less than five miles from me prior to us meeting. She still might get the job. But, in the time being I've scheduled another trip back to my father's just to see her.
I met her at one of those Eagles clubs (F.O.E.) where she moonlights as a bartender. She knows my folks because they belong to the club and my step-mom played a little match-maker while I was in there. I barely know her but we seemed to hit it off real well. She even asked me out to dinner in front of the whole place. Unfortunately I had to turn her down because of work. But, I'm headed back to take her up on it.
The nice thing about the situation is that it's Memorial Day weekend and she has all three days off as do I. It's almost like a three day date because I have a feeling I'm going to be seeing a lot more of her than my old man. So, here's my plan. :devil: I was thinking that Sunday would be the perfect day for her and I to have a picnic. They live out in the boonies so there is no shortage of quiet places where a couple of love-birds can be alone. The weather has been beautiful too. I'm thinking Sunday so that we can spend some time maybe shopping on Saturday and getting comfortable around each other. Maybe play some frisbee and what not. Hopefully end up with a 10 second frencher...
Well, it will be the first date I've gone on in like 7 or 8 years. Any advice?

Groovy!
Just be yourself and enjoy yourself. Sounds like you've got a really wonderful weekend planned!
(I'm I'll be thinking about you...hoping that you get a smackeroo or two.)

Brush your teeth, keep breath mints on hand.
Wear plenty of deodorant.
Wear clean underwear.
Light aftershave.
You may want to get rid of chest/back hair if it's getting thick.

I do, it's just that when a nice girl gets near me my confidence plummets to the ground and I can't utter a single coherent sentence anymore.

That actually still happens to me once in a while. My first girlfriend almost called 911 because I stopped breathing.
I guess you'll just have to find a girl in the same boat as you. Maybe start treating them like friends vs. putting them in a seperate group, ie. Girls. I'm no expert though...I usually embarass myself thoroughly a few times up front just to get it out of the way.

go to a bar and keep your eyes half-closed while sipping a martini and staring off into space. while doing this make sure your wearing black and hopefully a coat. have your hair slicked back.

Oh hoooooray she wrote back? This IS promising Ormi! First dates are always exciting but nerve racking at the same time.....Sounds like you've gotten some good advice so far but one thing I would add in....make the first date a relatively short one. That way you won't have so much pressure on yourself wondering what to do and say and if you need one, you have an excuse to get out. If it were me...I would plan on the first date lasting just a couple of hours. Out to dinner or coffee or whatever. Plan on it being short and if it turns out that you two hit it off fabulously..then you can decide what else to do after that! You'll know if it's going well within the first hour. The picnic will take up much more time so you'll want to feel pretty comfortable around her before you commit to that much time. But, you will probably know after the first date. Hope this helps...if not just ask more questions!
Personally Ormi, I'd ditch Brut. Ralph Polo Blue and Calvin Klein Eternity are waaay better. Every girl I've talked to loves them.Ormiston said:How does Brut sound?

Chest and stomach hair is easy to take care of. You may have to ask your buddy to help ya with the back. But only if your back and chest are Sasquatch-like. Otherwise, I wouldn't worry 'bout it too much.
Curve is good too.Buttercup said:A couple of cologne's I like are Givency--Pi and Calvin Klein--Obsession. And my all time favorite was some type of Chanel for Men...but I forgot the name. Great help that is huh? But yes, John....make sure you smell delicious!
