I'm going on a blind date tomorrow!

[Haunted Serenity]

Have fun. Just be yourself and if the datee doesn't like it then w/e. It wasn't right

Wear a giant foam cowboy hat and daisy dukes.

that's a pretty gnarly image there....

That outfit made my last Thanksgiving kind of akward.[/retardedness]

First piece of advice: Don't take any advice from the internet. Ever. About anything.

Since you've disregarded that already, try this.

Be yourself.
Have fun.

If you fail at either of those two, you've failed.

Finally, it is okay to scream and run when reality doesn't quite live up to fantasy.

yes, screaming and running works quite well in many dire situations

 

[duchaked]

Relax and enjoy yourself. Be yourself, don't mention your ex if you have one, don't complain about where you're eating, and don't go into the date expecting a relationship. Go into it expecting to have fun and enjoy yourself, and if it goes well then start to think about what could be. Good luck!

Hey that was actually some level headed reasonable advice. I defiantly second that.

It really also depends on your age. Dates where quite a bit different when I was 20 compared to the last couple of years.

...EX: She doesn't need to know you sleep naked yet.

However ladies that does not apply to you. He does not mind knowing you sleep naked.

Ohh double standards are fun ain't they?

yeah, ain't that the truth lolll

be yourself...unless yourself is a serious jerk...
then said jerk might need to work on character building before dating haha

Love isn't blind, love is all-seeing, guilty, shameful, and is actually lust in disguise.

Agreed.

well i'll give you points for bravery. Why thanksgiving though?

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Don't ask me. I probably know less about dating then you.

My first piece of advice would have been "don't accept a blind date"... I don't really understand the whole concept. Love isn't blind, love is all-seeing, guilty, shameful, and is actually lust in disguise.

Not true. Love is blind, it's people who aren't. And it's people who often confuse love for lust but they defiantly aren't the same thing.

If its a girl, chances are, shes got as much personality as a sack full of empty.
Be fake, be a yesman, thats all there is to it.
If its a guy then show some personality, dont be the 500th girl to have no personality and be nothing more then a sex object. That complains.

 

[Teh Ty]

Make sure your charisma stat is up to 10, and if you kiss, remember to V.A.T.S onto the lips, since you're right infront of her, it should be about 97% hit.

 

[KValentine]

As I recall my first date: Be mindful of surroundings, use protection, avoid making a scene, and shoot every guy taking pot shots at your date.

We went paintballing.

 

[IanBrazen]

Ill give you some of my most erotic pick up lines.

"I find the most erotic part of a woman to be the boobies."
and
"if I said you had a beautiful body would you take your pants off and dance around alittle.

But seriously just be yourself, dont front, and have a good time.

(from futurama if noone got it)

 

[BonsaiK]

And I need tips. I have no idea how to date. I think the fact that I'm asking this here say enough about me to give you an idea of where I'm coming from.

I have replied to this question in the Relationship Problem Thread, which is here ---> http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.117161?page=11#3577314 <--- and which is a thread that you should all feel free to use should anyone have questions like this.

 

[Booze Zombie]

Just go have fun and see if you like each other.

 

[Soxafloppin]

Make her laugh

Avoid gamer jokes/dead baby jokes/ sexism

Dont be wierd

spend a good half hour on your apearance

smell nice

Relax, you will fine.

 

[riskroWe]

Don't drink excessively, either. Despite being a type of pirate cool, alot of chicks are turned off by swaggering buffoons.

Unless you're the quiet nerd type, in which case alcohol can only make you sexier.
