We’ve had this thread about what not to say on your first date, but let’s turn the tables and chew a little on what you actually should say on your first date with that butterfly filled tummy of yours.

The floor is yours, people, and I want to hear millions of poetic ways of whispering sweet little things into your dates ears.

Remember, flattery is mandatory😁❤️😁.

Roses are red
Violets are blue,
What is your name?
I don’t have a clue.

Or maybe that’s for the other thread? 😅

Tbh? I wouldn’t know what to say, except that I would hope he would be well mannered lol. In Eli’s words, “I’m shy”.

I took this from the song "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton 🤭

And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight"

I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes

And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you 🤭

I'm going with: Hello, it's so nice to finally meet you (unless it's a stranger or close friend in which case we'll have to alter that) . Actually if this is a close friend who wanted to date me, probably not too much I could (well would) say wrong, they already know all my weird and decided they liked it.

You know.... really, all any woman has to say is Hello. That's it! Your job is done. And if it's an consolation - we all like your weird. ;)

"The most important thing is there is nothing important tonight. If we are on the way to the restaurant and decide we want to get an ice cream cone and catch a movie instead, that's what we'll do. Unless we decide we want to drive go-karts instead, or just pick up some potato wedges and watch a show at home."

I don't know if these questions are appropriate to ask on a first date but they sound poetic and profound.

Do you wanna be a poet and write
Do you wanna be an actor up in lights
Do you wanna be a soldier and fight for love
Do you wanna travel the world
Do you wanna be a diver for pearls
Or climb a mountain and touch the clouds above

Are you gonna be a gambler and deal
Are you gonna be a doctor and heal
Or go to heaven and touch God's face
Are you gonna be a dreamer who sleeps
Are you gonna be a sinner who weeps
Or an angel
Under grace

I short I am curious about his passion in life.

What SHOULD you say on a first date?

Why, the words every man wants to hear from a woman, of course: "I'll pay."

Now of course it's not like this with every guy, but I've been on a few dates where the man was complaining so much about women using men as ATM'S that when the check came, I just told the waiter to hand it to me.

I saw it as a no-win situation. I always offer to pay my own way as it is, but in this situation, it felt like no matter what I did, I'd still be seen as just another evil money-grubbing woman, so I would feel an obligation to pay the whole thing because I somehow had to prove that I wasn't like all these other women he was going on about.

But I also never went on a second date with the guy, either. As delightful as it sounds to spend another evening listening to someone complain about people I don't know and stereotypes I try to have nothing to do with, I'll have to pass.

Which of course, is probably why I'm still (sometimes happily) single.

There is a show here in Aus called Blind Dates. There are no paid actors just people who have signed up on a dating site whom agree to have their first date on camera. It is always at a restaurant. It is entertaining and I often find myself cringing at what people do or say. You probably have the American version as there is an English version as well. I must admit it is hilarious and interesting to watch human behaviour. When it comes to paying for the meal alot of the men offer to pay for it which is nice.

Wait, this seems self-contradictory... Or at least like a missed opportunity. If you're never going on a second date with this dude, why not hand the check to him? Who cares what he thinks? He's history! Might as well get a free meal out of it. That's your payment for listening to his rant all night. :cool:

Flattery? "You're prettier than your avatar would suggest." ;)

How about a simple, "I enjoyed your company, and would like to see you again."
