It wasn't the first date in my case and more like third if I recall correctly, but my wife did this thing which really won me over. I think it would have worked just as well on the first date.
But my impression of her up to the third date or so even though we had been friends before and on a couple of dates is that she was this hyper-feminine, hopelessly romantic type. She loved Broadway musicals and opera and classical music and cheesy things like that as well as frequently dressing in a somewhat dated and hyper-feminine way like long skirts. She also loved fine wines and things of this nature: possessing all the stereotypical qualities I associated of an assertive but traditional, cultured, classy, romantic type of lady-like woman.
So anyway, just to make her happy I took her on the third date or so to a park that offered cheesy romantic boat rides for couples. I thought it was so lame but I wanted to show her I can be more than a jackass and summon up a romantic side every once in a blue moon and I thought she'd appreciate it.
I took her to the park and we went to the lake and then instead of wanting to take the romantic ride together, she wanted to take two boats and race me across the lake! So then we raced across the lake like jackasses making a big scene while couples are trying to enjoy a peaceful view and I totally kicked her ass. Then she turned into a sore loser about it (humorously). I had already grown very fond of her but I didn't realize she had that whole other fun side to her the entire time. So that made me like her even more.
Aww what a great story/memory! ❤️👍
For further context, I've always been like an overgrown kid at least as far as my interests go. I'm a fun-loving type and one of my weak points when it comes to maturity is taking things seriously. So I tended to invite exes that were very immature like me, and that was loads of fun like two kids on a playground together.
Yet it was also very stressful when things got serious and frequently like a rollercoaster relationship with my exes since we were too immature to avoid mutually escalating arguments, for example. So I started developing at least the barebones maturity and patience and open style of communication required to avoid escalating conflicts, and I thought I needed to change the type of women I dated to match. My wife epitomized this sort of maturity I was seeking as one who got along so well with everyone but assertive enough to avoid keeping her troubles to herself.
Still, I thought that dating her meant that I would have to forego some of my childish humor and sense of fun. It's like she's such a great person but maybe I'm going to have to grow up so much and become like the super-serious type of boring person I don't want to be. So she especially won me over when she suggested that boat race. It's like she does still have that inner child we can enjoy together when it's not required to be so serious.
That's awesome👍
Well of course I've never tried it. But if they still got rides going to the Sun I hear that was pretty good. I hear we're so good you don't even have to get three-quarters of the way there. So whatever you do don't bring any chocolate with you it'll be messy
I don't know I haven't been out such a long time on a date I forget what there is to do in my town LOL I live in a twenty-four-hour-a-day town and everything here to do is either too personal or not personal enough. Or I would have to take away from the date because I would want to add more people to it maybe like have something set up where you go to a place where kids are going to be adopted out grab a handful of them they come to build a bear so everybody can build a bear it had that comfort of their waiting to be adopted out or go by Twenty loaves of bread peanut butter jelly make a bunch of sandwiches an and then out to the homeless people yeah I'm just not a very good first date her type of guy I half be spontaneous if I think about it it's always about somebody else or something and I'm hungry right now so it would be one of those two things at the moment. It could all change in 10 minutes
I think those gestures are sweet and let's someone get to know the real you
🤣🤣
If they were kind to the servers and acknowledged them when they came by. That's something small I know, but it's pretty uncommon these days, that's what my then date now boyfriend did and we've been together 3 years now! Haha. Also, being polite and listening intently.. those get big hearts too
👍👍 3 years that's great!
Thank you! by the way I love your positivity. I've seen you post some comments and questions and you're lovely. It's great to see kind people on GAG
Thank you! 💛🙂
Something heart melting is him basically tell me how he truly feels about me very creative with his words. That is optional but if you just truly honest with me on the first day that we meet. That will make my heart melt tremendously and I feel like we will have a really good time.
Yeah real and honest from day one is a good thing.

Being sincerely interested in knowing me and ditching the phone for the lenght of the date.
Is that simple!
Right!!!
Sorry, but I don't see that as "heart melting" material, Jean-Marie. Unless she's a single mom, or someone on call in the medical field or similar, that's merely common courtesy. I would think "less" of my date if has no reason to leave the phone on and out, but did it anyway.
@loveslongnails I don't have high pretenses honestly.
Having been taken for granted too often and by too many people, now I'm just drawn to people who are considerate and kind enough in giving me time and attention.
Ok, but don't mistake mere common decency (which is actually self-interest motivated in this case), for heart rendering sacrifice. Don't drop all your expectations into the gutter, where being kicked to a curb may seem attractive !
Probably play footsies under the table! LOL j/k
I would say if they are genuinely interested in getting to know me and it's not all about them them them.
,🤣🤣 footsie under the table lolol maybe for the
women with cute, dainty feet, mine would probably just injure someone🤣
I agree with the other tho👍🙂
bahahahahahahaa stop.. it's too early.
Aww you're no fun lol go drink some coffee... And early? I been up since 4-do don't feel so early to me
*so...
I was out late last night so this is super early for me! And yes coffee is brewing! Thank god. LOL
Out late? A date? 🤔🤔
Ha no but the waitress did hit on me though hmmmm probably looking for a phat tip!
Probably🤣
Hey you are supposed to say maybe she thought I was hot or something Ha
Oh uh... "I'm sure she thought you were the hottest guy there"...😁 "oh, and no honey, you don't look fat in those jeans"🤣
I was looking and smelling good last night so... you could be right Ha
Footsies are fun as long as you don't kick his balls
If she acted super adorable in some way while still being somewhat "wholesome" and pervy (at the same time), I'm a sucker for that shit in most situations. It's hard to explain an example, But sometimes you just get a vibe that sends the "I really like you and want to be overly dramatic about it, but I'm not dumb or impatient so I'm not gonna be a slut either, but you should love me because you won't regret it" kind of vibe.
It's sort of like a clinginess and nervousness with a hint on panic that she tries to hide, like she's terrified I won't want to be with her and is trying really hard to not fuck it up, so she's fucking it up a little as a result.
Not in an insecurity sort of way, but more like in a don't let him get the wrong idea about me from being too nervous kind of way.
Think of it like a really important job interview, and you go there knowing you are the most qualified and that this is your dream job, but that means you are scared af that you won't get it because of some unexpected stupid reason that you need to eliminate as possible, so you don't entirely act like yourself in an attempt to needlessly increase your own value, and I find that sort of guesture very endearing, because it says I'm actually appreciated by this person enough for them to go through all that mental nonsense.
If thats not love I'm not sure what is.
And yes, I know, first date, but any first date is gonna be with a long time bestie.
Haha you just described me on job interviews. Suck at the interview part, but great on the job lolol, and I agree, cuz if I wasn't really into the person, the nervous wouldn't be there, but if I was well again think you described how I'd probably be lol
Lol, This is something guys do as well, and why women who only date "confident" men, always end up dating jerks.
If he acts condfident, he isn't worried about losing her.
Right!
Ok, well, some terms, maybe: Some "coffee chats" when we just casually, get together, and nothing like a "real" date, but more like, looking at something, like maybe for ladies, like a really nice pair of shoes, and maybe trying them on, but not really sure you want to buy them.
A few of those, and in the same neighborhood, and just running into each other, totally unexpected, and just being you, and not expecting, and Saturday, and no make-up and hair in a pony tail, but WOW!!! Just chatting, "flirting" maybe, and her touching my arm, and then a hug!! WOW!!
So not surprising, a "First Date" REAL date, and she invites me over to her place for dinner! Trying not to read anything into that!! :)
So I need to bring some good wine, right, but I don't know what she is going to cook!! My ADHD kind of mind makes me get 4 different ones, trying to cover everything I might imagine she would make!!
She remembered my favorite hot dish, and no wine needed! LOL!!
Paying attention, and remembering the little things that the other loves, is such a heart-warming, touching thing!! How she remembered that one thing, from the casual conversations, well, that makes her something beyond AMAZING!! :)
👍👍🙂
Light my chest with a blowtorch. Sorry - it's been a long day and it's late - I'm not responsible for my actions at this point. but I digress - - - - --
Probably bring a batch of homemade kolachke - Bohemian/Polish fruit-filled, pastry dessert.

Blowtorch🤣🤣
Yum those pastries lol ok scrumptious...
Good thing it's just a pic cuz if that basket was in front of me, me and my scale would be in trouble🤣
Yeah - I'd be down to the wicker in one sitting - - - - -
If I didn't get to them first😂
Say I think you are cute

Look at me in desire

Kiss me

Or talk about vintage 80s or 90s stuff
😂

A first date that would melt the heart would be one where the person showed me their heart, and concern for others. Talk to me, let me see how you think; let me see how you are in your family, and around your friends. I all these things and more, if I see that your heart is true in all; then yes, you are a keeper to me.
👍👍
After the date (if it went well), when I walk her to her car or to the door of her home, if she turns to face me and looks up searchingly into my eyes for reassurance. Then she takes a chance and gently places her hands on top of my shoulders, lifts herself onto her tip toes, and gives me a warm, tender kiss before saying she had a really nice time.
👍👍🙂
To show she has listened to at least some of the bollox I have come out with prior to agreeing to first date.
It could be a kiss to Cheek, a smile, a flash of the eyes.
but usually it’s something simple like a soft laugh or giggle
it’s often unlocked for that smacks you in the guts and makes you pause.
Admittedly, I’m the clown that’s usually coming out with the heart melting stuff lol.
Very true
Not sure to tell the truth. No one's done it yet.
Though I have been told I've done it before. I remember small details and can cite where we were, what we were doing, what she wore, and just about everything about different moments and how it made me feel at that time.
That you can still remember that you even paid attention, yeah that would melt a girls heart lol
Yeah, the other day I mentioned in a conversation I had that I remembered a girl mentioned she had to get her brakes fixed. This was a month or so ago. She didn't even remember saying it.
Then I explained where we were, what she was wearing, the perfume scent (floral spice), her hair style, the color of her nails (light lavender), and what she was buying. Then it all came back to her.
Turns out she procrastinated and hasn't gotten them checked yet.
Oh then really good you mentioned it
Not sure bout my heart.
But first date with my girlfriend was a few days after her B'day, and one of the things that had brought us together was a Unicorn. I turned upto our first date with a small Unicorn toy, just a token b'day present. Seemed to go down very well, got me a kiss.
That's cute🙂👍
I remember one date such date. She wore this yellow dress. Hair was beautifully curled. Her smile was so (a lost for words). I gave her roses as she blushed. She said, "I didn't know you were... I we should had did this sooner."
At that moment I wanted to devour her!
We went to see WICKED. Her legs were soft and amazing. We kissed all night. PDA is usually the my thing but she was gorgeous.
Aww sounds like it was a great date❤️👍
After a really good date and mutual interest and I am truly feeling it. I would like to try a nap date where we could nap for a few hours. Omg that would be divine haha.
Just nap🤔 lol
Joke around, laugh, and be generally goofy. I know that sounds bizarre, but women that act silly and be playful really get to me. Women always say they like men that can make them laugh. Well women that can make me laugh are priceless. I just love them. So if she does that, my heart will melt like wax before a blast furnace.
Yeah people that make it fun no matter where you go out what you do makes such a difference
Gaze deep into my eyes and run his fingers through my hair
Sounds good, just don't use hair spray🤣
Dw. I don’t 😂.
That's good. I don't anymore either but was a teen in the 80's= Aqua Net and big hair😂 don't think anyone would of got their fingers through that🤣🤣
Least it didn’t get in your face when you were giving a bj 😊
It's good if a girl's hair smells like gardenia or like flowers, i find it relaxing for a fast sleep 😁
@Gwenhwyfar 😂😂 lol right unlike these days they'd go home and find my blonde hair all over their penis 🤣🤣
@TonyMetal___86 so you a hair sniffer😂
When you move your hair i can smell if i'm in a garden or not, my smell sense is powerful miss brains muffins, that's why i'm able to know if your baking muffins, even if i'm miles away 🤣🤣
One more thing, why do girls think that bj are so important to guys, i'm someone who doesn't give it such importance as much as i'd like to bite and eat the spongy forehead's body cause it's made of muffins 😋
Well in my era everything is wild and i like to be wild but surely not all the time but you can say most of the times...
BORN TO BE WIIIIILLLLLDD 😂😂
@TonyMetal___86 wild is good... And oak sex is good, but if the actual sex is great oral means less to me then the actually joining of our two bodies
*oral not oak, but it is called wood so🧐🤣🤣
Extreme naughtiness from miss brains muffins, i was wondering how in the hell did i miss the oak, what's the oak sex 🤔😂
The spongy forehead always have new interesting things 😁
By the way the joining of the married couple bodies is the most wonderful feeling in the world, it makes you feel that you want to be forever joined but with me i can't hold on too much cause i get hungry and imagine the body as a muffin, which means i have to bite 😬
@TonyMetal___86 nah just a crappy phone, but makes conversations more interesting lolol
I like how it sounds OAK sex 🤣🤣
Miss brains's version of the kamasutra book "limited edition" here comes the OAK 🦅
@TonyMetal___86 😂😂 Well certainly takes "morning wood" to a new meaning.
"my man's wood is as hard and strong as oak"🤣
WoW! I'm out miss brains, i don't even wake up with a morning wood, it was long time ago when i was a teenager but now i wake up feeling like my whole body is a wooden board 😂😂
@TonyMetal___86 I said wood not morning wood lololol
@Brainsbeforebeauty I prefer receiving oral for pure pleasure but actual sex is more intimate. Like you said, a deeper connection (literally lol).
Right! Deep is good👍😇😈 lolol
Miss brains muffins likes to dive deep and that's why she will be eaten so we take some break from her naughtiness 😄
You said morning wood, don't play on words spongy forehead 😬
Loooooove that
Aside from giving answers or perspective to those who ask; i closely observe, say very little, yet express more then my words ever could.
Someone who returns in equally what has been given.
Ill leave it at that.
👍👍
Tell me he’s been thinking about me for 2 months since the first time he saw me. True story. 💕
Aww that's so sweet❤️❤️
Quote Euripedes.
"I'll take care of you.''
"It's rotten work."
"Not to me, not if it's you."
Aww, yeah that would be nice to hear of they really meant it!
Remember a detail I might have made about someone in my family and, if they saw something that my family members might appreciate they might say "hey, wouldn't your Mom really appreciate a picture of that?" for example...
That would definitely show they pay attention when you talk and thoughtful as well
Tough question... I don’t know if there was anything he could have done on our first date to melt my heart.
I'm not sure either lol
I have no idea, I guess for me isbthat she genuinely says that I'm funny and I been an awesome date so far? Will tell you in a couple weeks might go on a date soon :^)
If you do, good luck👍
I dont know to be honest. I dont know what would make me fall in love with someone or turn me into goo. Since the last dumpster fire. I dont know what to do or feel. Im just scared I guess to try again
I know. I let fear hold me back in a lot of ways I never did before... But I try to remind myself
"The greatest thing to fear is fear itself"
@Brainsbeforebeauty true.. But when you live with a parent who nags you constantly about it.. Its hard
She can't stop smiling and keeps gazing into my eyes.
👍👍🙂
Well she can make me muffins after a delicious meal of broasted chicken, also she can tell me that i'm her king and that i'm her whole life, i'd love that but not in dreams, in reality 😁
Chicken and muffins melt your heart, okay lol so guess it's true when they say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach🤣
Totally true, at least with me it is 😁
If the girl have a spongy forehead i'll love her more cause she will look like a cartoon character for me and i love it 🤣🤣
Spongy forehead, are you feeling better now from the burns? Next time be careful and i heard that the only treatment for making the burns vanish is by kisses from a neolithic man 😁
😂 actually aloe vera seems to be working, it looks smaller so must be working... More recovering from trying to cut the grass when wasn't feeling up to it, but gotta do what gotta do... So today probably gonna be a lazy day
Aloe vera is made from natural herbs, it was used back in the stone ages when a woman was single and couldn't get kisses 😂😂
Anyways i can't resist not biting miss brains muffins, 1st it will start by kisses until you feel relaxed and happy and after that you will get a huge shark bite yum yum 🤤
You really want to lose those teeth don't you🤣
No worries miss brains, a shark can replace his missing teeth 25 times 😜
One bite for the muffin and one bite for the spongy forehead 😋
Bring the gentleman back. Open doors, walk on the proper side of the road, pull my chair out, knock on my door to pick me up, don’t try to rush a kiss. Share your passions, pay for the date, make me laugh
Depends on the audience, how you first met to make a date. So, if you met on okcupid or tender. Look for themecentric to the profile. E. g beer or something else for his interest. That gives your interest into him as he has interest in you.
i just looked at your picture there must be a typo it says your 48 that must be a mistake i think it is to be 38 cause 😍😍😍
Lol no typo bout to turn 49 in July but thanks🙂
Thank you
Be really nice, supportive, and kind to me. Considering most people (especially women) aren't, I would truly be flattered by a lady that was. It would make me fall for them that much more.
I would say a girl / woman bringing me Roses or Flowers my heart would just melt
Aww💛
Focus on us, the conversation honesty, directness, just being a gentleman 😎✌️
Prepare himself for me, well dressed with good smell...
Not really sure I guess surprise me by being her self!
👍👍
"Random acts of kindness" impress the hell out of me...
👍👍
If she's the perfect woman for me, just being herself would melt my heart
That's what I always say, just be yourself👍
Just if they accidentally shown how attracted they are to me.
👍👍
Nothing really. The first date is a reconnaissance and by no means definitive.
give a big hug and say I love you, maybe a little kiss after the hug
First Date might be too soon for "I love you"
No way I said that to my wife on first date but I wouldn’t go on a date with a girl unless I knew there was a highly likelihood that she would be the one tho.
I don't know, it takes a lot to get me like that
You could always throw your sweaty shorts bra at them and see how they react🤣🤣🤣🤣
*sports
That's a punishment not sexy.
Unless that's their kink 🤣
Oh lawd😂
🤣🤣🤣
Never thought about it honestly, I don't have expectations when it comes to those kinds of things.
Ask me the important questions. That will create trust.
hmmmmm
I guess I’m dead or feelingless.
I can’t think of anything.
🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Do something that I'm not expecting.
Such as? Or just anything?
A good just anything. Especially, if he shows his gentleman qualities and kindness towards others.
👍👍🙂
If they had a killer smile like yours.
Thank you🙂
Bring there sister... I mean that's a joke! Honestly lol
Do you honestly though
Take hold of my hand while we were walking.
Yeah that's nice
Rescue an injured animal
But what if there is no injured animal to rescue? Lol
Show up for a change!
Ouch. Had a lot of no show dates?
No, haven’t had a lot of dates lately.
Well there was a lockdown
That definitely hurt the cause. I dated a chick for a second and ran as fast as I could from her crazy ass. Fortunately she took the hint, I’d rather be alone than with her. Never trust a government worker!
Hey you know I worked for a government agency once🧐 lolol
**taking notes** Okay, thanks I will attach that to your resume.
🤣🤣 please don't... Hated the fact it was a federal agency, but needed the flexibility it afforded me to be able to set my own schedule, and still take care of my hubby.
There were times I worked from my vehicle in the parking structure of the hospital when he was in the ICU
Oh man, I wasn't intending to dredge up memories of your tough times, I was just kidding around, which is 90% of the time. It doesn't come across in text, I understand. And of course, if the government has a good job for me, I will take it. I am not anti-government... Well, the current one yes, but I digress.
You're good... Hard not to be anti government these days
flowers
👍👍🙂
Never really thought about tbh
👍👍
Making me dinner we're giving me a blojob or both would do it
Blow Job on a first date? 🤷🏼♀️ Yeah that would be a no for me..
@loves2learn Of course - that is one of my favorite things!
All good then. :)
My husband went down on me the day we met. I also gave him a bj. Been together for 20 years.
you say shut up and you feel so FUCKING BAD THAT YOU SAID THAT SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIT
Be really straightforward, without any lies
Actually show up and participate in the date.
Be themselves
👍👍🙂
You could prepare and cook a romantic dinner
That sounds too personal for a first date.
open the car door
Heating it at 6000°c
🤣🤣🤣 well if she pulls a blow torch or of her purse "Run Forrest Run"😂
She could be honest.
Let me touch her boobs.
Swallow. 😈
See it's that right there that ruins first dates...
@Brainsbeforebeauty
🤣
I am certain that you will agree that there is no more certain way to a man’s heart.
But first date? And then guys wonder why women think guys expect sex on the first date
@Brainsbeforebeauty
Perhaps not first date. 🤣
I cannot think of anything else that would have an effect on me, though.
I have been hurt so often, for so long, that in my dealings with women I border on the psychopathic now, in terms of being unable to allow myself to feel anything.
My mate selection is done on logic (channelling my inner Vulcan). Attachment, if it happens, comes much later.
There is currently one female on the planet in whom I have an interest, but she does not want to know.
That is the story of my life.
Why doesn't she want to know? And how can you be sure of that?
@Brainsbeforebeauty
I do not know why she is not interested.
We have known each other for 36 years, during which time we have done the wild thing more than once.
I suspect that there is another man who is servicing her currently.
I have to say that it hurts, because I have a genuine and deep affection for her. This happens every time that I allow myself to feel anything for a female.
We had a conversation about my desire for her. She told me that she was not interested in a relationship, although friends with benefits was a possibility.
That has not happened and she continues to find reasons to not get together.
I have stopped trying. The message has been understood.
Yeah, you deserve sometime that wants you and not as just an alternative
*someone
@Brainsbeforebeauty
Based on a lifetime of rejection and occasional heartbreak, I have formed the view that the universe has decreed that I do not deserve anyone.
I am not meant to know that form of happiness, apparently.
Plenty of women come sniffing around, but, for a variety of reasons, none of them interest me.
When I do security a weddings, it is almost comical to watch how the single/divorced/widowed women on the wrong side of 40 acquire me on their radar.
Security? Are handcuffs part of the uniform? That could be a reason😂😂😂
@Brainsbeforebeauty
No handcuffs for private security in Australia, which is typical libtard government insanity, because it means that the only way left for us to deal with a violent threat is to kill them, or break an arm and/or leg.
Anyway, no handcuffs, but at home I can offer leather cuffs, steel shackles and many other... toys. 😈
Lololol🤣
@Brainsbeforebeauty
After 50 Shades of Grey became the top selling work of fiction in the history of the world, nobody should be surprised that a lot of women get off on being... restrained.
Who was surprised even before that lolol not me lol
@Brainsbeforebeauty
What a pity that we are on opposite sides of the planet.
Why tho? Cuz I don't engage in casual sex. Not going to say never did, but it's not what/who I really am... I'm the one guy/one gal committed/monogomous relationship. And even the casual sex was with the same person on and off for 3+years... Naughty and whore aren't the same thing... These youngins don't get that🤣
@Brainsbeforebeauty
Follow me so that I cam PM you.
Aww see I don't pm on here. Had too many issues with it in the past, why my settings are set the way they are... Cuz of had prior stalk/harass, create fake accounts, underage or "pretend" underage users and when reported, those accounts deactivated right away, so now stick to public threads
@Brainsbeforebeauty
As you wish.
