Dating sucks!

An ice cream parlor sounds over the top corny.



No it doesn't. I'd go on a putt-putt/ice cream date and think it was a lot of fun! If you go to a movie, I'd pick a nice dessert place instead of ice cream. Do you have a Cheesecake Factory near your house or some place like that? Another good thing is that Chocolate Orgasm (what the heck is that called again?) drink they have at Starbucks. Mmmmmmmm!

Edit to add: Hey, this is by far the most replied to thread I've ever posted. Just how many freaking replies does a thread need to get the little flaming icon thing?!!

Damn....I don't know of anyone who overanalyzes stuff like that.

Really, dating isn't all that difficult. Don't read into everything, and do what comes naturally (as long as you are respecting the other person.)



Lol, you're absolutely right. I am a very overanalytical bastard. I'm a mathmetician and a programmer; that's how my brain works. I fucking hate it. Because I'm a very logical person, I've always tried to take dating logically, which doesn't quite work, since women aren't logical at all .... they work much more off of their subconscious emotions. So I've had to logically teach myself to not look at things logically, but I can only do that if I know what I should or should not be doing, until eventually it just makes sense.

But, honestly, I don't think any of you will ever understand that.

Hey now! I got my degree in statistics...and that's all about analyzing! But, you will never know exactly what a person is thinking. You will never know exactly what they "mean" by what they say (if there's some sort of hidden meaning.) It's really just pointless to try to figure out what they mean...to look for clues and signs. It's much easier to ask.

why can't more women be like you:)


That's what I'm saying, except I don't think it's so much enjoying the uncertainty (possibly even not enjoying it), but rather attracted to the uncertainty. Because they don't know whether they can have something, they want it more.

On top of that, if Person A (guy or girl, doesn't matter) is uncertain about Person B, but then they go out, and the date goes well, it'll feel much better, than if it was already known that both are attracted to each other.

I mean, if a guy asks a girl to come out with him, it's obvious that he's interested. He doesn't need to vocalize it as well. She already knows.

You know....I think that's why I didn't really date in college. I think there is a correlation between age and games. I did know a few guys like that, but I knew they weren't my type because of it! :D

People in general aren't like that. My current theory is that people tend to not be straight forward and upfront to prolong things. It's hard enough to find someone to go out with... even if they aren't 'right' people try to stretch it out for a couple months.
it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality

not necessarily. If they are friends, doesn't need to mean that. Also there are many times where I've asked gals out innocently, since i dont really know them at all. I sometimes i guess it's to see if there is an interest. physically attraction isn't all what it's about...... just 99% of it;):D

Well, yeah, discount friends. I've gone out to dinner with friends girlfriends, and that's all it was ... but I'm referring to the others ... the ones you don't really know. you said you were seeing if there was interest on their end ... and that essentially means you were at least somewhat interested enough that if it's mutual, it might be worth a shot.

but of course, there's always exceptions. as i'm writing this, i keep remembering other times this didn't really fit ... so i dunno

The more a girl likes you, the less you call her, and she'll like you more. It's fucking stupid, it's a retarded game, but that's just how it is.


If you think games are stupid and retarded, don't play them. You'll end up with others who don't play games.

well this interest could just be an interest in friends not nes a possible relationship. I've asked out many women before, fully knowing that they have b/f or are married (that is a touchy one).

so i guess if you are talking about interest in terms of relationship potential, sure.
