Re: Girl Advice
My Advice
I would re-think the dinner idea. There's too much pressure and expectations that go along with a dinner date, especially on a first date! I would highly suggest something more casual like coffee, drinks or "hey, do you want to grab a quick bite to eat?" - pizza works wonders, EVERYBODY likes pizza! If that goes well, THEN you ask her out to dinner! But when you do, make sure you already have a time and place in mind. Because if she asks, the last thing she wants to hear is "I dunno." Women love and respect strong, decisive men.
I would also keep the number of texts to a mininum. Not only do you run the risk of "saying the wrong thing," but you also risk becoming too much like a friend rather than a potential lover. I understand that there has been some flirting. But it sounds rather subtle so far, and she does seem a bit unsure about getting involved with you since you mentioned her hesitation after you suggested dinner. Most women, shy or not, will jump at the chance to go out with a guy that they are very interested in. So there is a chance that she likes you but "not into you." Just throwin that out there. So be careful, AND DO NOT GIRL TALK WITH HER! That is a major, major mistake.
I would also watch the number of compliments you give her. If you kiss her butt too much, she WILL lose interest and respect for you. It's happened to me TIME AND TIME AGAIN! This doesn't mean you don't have to be a jerk. But it does mean that you can't be a "Yes Man." Don't ever be afraid to say "no" and disagree with her. Don't do it on purpose, of course. But if you have the chance, let her know that you are a MAN and have your own set of ideals and opinions. And certainly don't apologize for being a MAN either! There's a reason that women are turned on by the so-called "bad boys." They are attracted to MAN'S natural, unpredictable and sometimes reckless nature. So let her know that you are one... and I can guarantee that she will go out with you. Don't believe me? Go up to any female and start talking about a whitewater rafting trip you once went on, or how you love skydiving, or how you once escaped death... and then watch their eyes and body by how engaged in the conversation they are. Women love a man who excites them, and surprise... also makes them laugh (you certainly can't be serious all the time). But ultimately, women just want a man who will keep them interested. With that being said... good luck, man! *Yeah that's right, I called you a MAN! NOW GO GET HER!!!!!!*

Re: Girl Advice
It's true, everybody does, and if you run out of subjects to talk about with the girl, you can always pour some ketchup or mayo on your pizza. That is surely going to be a hot conversation topic.Weekend_Warrior wrote:pizza works wonders, EVERYBODY likes pizza!
I know Racketboy talked about that for what, 30 pages?
