View Full Version : Hot Date
So, managed to get a lovely lady at work to give in and go on a date after getting shot down a month ago and continuing to talk her up and down. She likes adventure/seeing a lot of new people/whatever. Initially she thought I was an ultra conservative prude or something but that's just me being very PC while at work.
May be one and only date, but I'm trying to find something memorable. Not sure if I can get long hours free with both our schedules so that's a limiting factor. So far best I've come up with is in Town horse tooth reservoir or driving out to jackson for either jetski or jetboat followed by dinner at Rodizio's and maybe a movie somewhere in there.
Any better idea's than that? If not a lake, there is also a hike around bear lake in RMNF but that's a bit far. Trying to plan for just me and her, but may get saddled with her 2 yr old.
Edit: She doesn't mind gun, maybe even can be considered as liking them, but not planning on a shooting trip being the best for a first time.
Quit trying to make a huge deal of it. Just go hang with her and be yourself, either she'll like you or she won't. And for the kid's sake - stay out of his/her life for now dude.
BTW, hooking up with gals from work isn't the greatest of ideas.

I kinda agree about keeping it simple.. Dont over think.. You got this man!
Keep it simple and fun. If the kid comes along then make the time about the kid. So a genuine interest in the kid as well, just don't over do it.
Good Luck

To much pressure if you spend a lot or do something special of the first date.

it's a bad idea to dip your pen in the company ink, that is some experience talking. Other than that relax, keep the first date simple and light.

If you consider her 2 year-old coming along as being "saddled," then she probably isn't the right lady for you.
If you are serious about her then the kid should not be a problem and should be included whether he/she comes along or you bring him/her a toy when you pick the lady up.
As for dates make it something fun more in a public scene so it isn't too awkward and don't set the bar too high or she might get pissed when the 3rd date you want steak and bj night.

+1 on this and
Also gotta see some pics. Where are they?
How is a live band better for conversation than a movie?
I have zero advice for this thread. I couldn't plan a date to save my life, or relationship.
Yeah, I guess you can at least try conversation without being sushed as well.
the 3rd date you want steak and bj night.
Damn thats a looong wait.
I always just had the first date at my place with homemade food and drinks maybe a movie. Plenty of time for conversations and the right facilitys in case she was a girl I really respected[Tooth]

Sorry Sniper had to fix it for ya![Coffee]
Jeese so many replies almost forgot this thread, been busy taking over supervision at work.

I didn't mean negatively, I almost was ready to marry a lady with a 5yr old and 5month old, until she went back to meth head ex. So that's no problem. After talking tonight about what our schedules are like found out though the 2 yr old getting attached to any male figures right now and she doesnt allow him to see any of her dates till she ends up engaged. Which is cool to protect him, maybe makes it easier on me even though I'm well aware of the fact that she and the kid is a package deal.
As far as work thing, we are contract technically, her department is completely separate. Basically even if things went very sour somehow, it would not affect the workplace. Didn't go into details since I didn't think anyone would go into that, though I suppose that's the obvious answer without knowing all the details.
Agree on movie and conversation problem, but she really loves romance's and was pushing for me to watch some. But I can't dance so don't want to do that first time around. Ditto on dinner at my place, I know with murphy I'll screw it up and might seem forward. For her she's adventurous and all that. (And admitted to some freaky stuff) So the water stuff isn't all that wild. (For anyone else I wouldn't have gone for it.)
Will have to get pics. But 5-8 or 5-10. Redish/brown long auburn hair. Never had seen a girl you could say it about but cute ears. Not skinny rail thin but not fat at all, so shapely? Plenty of hot girls and single at work, but what does it for me is who she is/personality etc.
For various reasons I also started to come to the simplify for it. Our entire thing has been a little out of the norm and we've known each other for a bit so she knows me as myself at least as far as honest/compassionate. Just because I'm at work I reign it in compared to when I'm at home or out and about.
Learning towards that new romantic comedy + rodizio. Nice simple, should end up under $100 instead of $300. Just felt like dinner/movie was a little vanilla but hey it must be classic for a reason right.
Thanks, texting she wont be able to do anything this week so more time to plan. Instead going drinking tuesday night to celebrate 4.0 for summer class she needs for nursing school. Trying to coax her into a ride in the hot rod up around horsetooth first. Non date, just celebrate. Offered to DD but she said hell no I'm drinking with her <3.
Sadly she's a tequila girl and not whiskey :(
Have a feeling your gonna have your hands full then!

The best first date is take her to maatam fez for dinner it is a 5 course meal with lots of distractions and cool atmosphere to keep from that horrible ackward silence, but lots of time to talk, then go rent a movie together and go back to your/her place to watch it with a couple of drinks.
This has worked almost a dozen times to get me......... married

I have an odd allergy to tequila... I'm fine with one or 2, but any more than that and I break out in cuts and bruises the next morning...

FWIW
It breaks rule 1 of the 5 rules of life...
1. Never get your meat where you make your bread (work)
2. Never get your meat where you lay your head (same apartment complex)
3. Never spend the night, unless you mean it
4. Never be the first to say I love you
5. Never sell a car to a friend
Now I have broken every one of those and the only one that has turned out good was selling a car to a friend...

I have a similar allergy- but it usually ends up with my friends making fun of me: "Dude, you were arguing with a houseplant, falling over a lot, throwing things, and then you puked in the laundry machine!"
Fitz, good luck, she sounds great- but me personally, I shy away from the single moms- I don't want to ever become "the other dad," and I just don't want to deal with the bio-daddy drama, but if that's for you, and you're cool with it, happy hunting and hope it works out for you. As far as dates go, I suck at planning them, but thus far have had some good luck with improvised date plans... if it is possible, one of the best dates I've ever been able to arrange (done this about 4 times now and every one of them ended with her being happy to see me again) is sports. Take her to a Rockies game (don't do rockpile though), or if it were time of year, a hockey game, the Avs are always fun to watch and you show her you care by spending a shitload of money on food and beer that is waaay overpriced... joking about $$=love.
That's what I've had the most success with, and it involves very little effort, just walk in, take your seat and enjoy yourselves.

I believe there was a better rhyme for it at one time, just the way it was told to me. Feel free to replace meat with whatever floats your boat. Could have been a woman that made it up, I don't know.
Why do you ask? Are you interested in that lifestyle? I am sure there are plenty of internet resources for you. You might start with your local GLAAD group.
While I do not subscribe to it, I support your rights to live in or out of the closet.

You are the one talking about getting meat. Im sorry to expose some light on your closet activities. I didn't even know what GLADD was until I goggled it. So keep hunting for that meat you soo desperately desire.
Or learn how to take some flak when you set yourself up.

GLAAD to hear you are getting the help and encouragement you need. You've made a terrific choice in following your heart.
As to the meat I desperately desire, a good tri tip marinaded in Spade L Ranch dry rub for 3 days and grilled over fire will do the trick.
Here to hoping your new friends will treat you right and that you take take a joke as well!! [Beer]
