Is going to McDonalds acceptable for a first date nowadays? (Page 2)

[AdithyaR]

Personally I wouldn't go for McDonald's cause it's not really an ideal setting for me to get to know someone. At the same time a really fancy restaurant wouldn't preferable either cause it's too formal.
I'd like something like a small cafè for a first date.

Going anywhere is acceptable unless she was a gold digger and dating the guy just because of his money...

What matters is that they are together, wherever he takes her, she will be happy cause they want to spend some time together, he might buy 2 bags of chips, juice and chocolate and take her somewhere to sit together such as on a beach or a place where there's a beautiful view... etc

[DesiUwU]

i say yes. chicken nuggets and milkshakes, then sitting in a field somewhere under the stars whilst eating them. sounds like an amazing first date

[LiamJHayden]

No McD, but I will always do a coffee date for a first meeting. Dates are for women with whom I can see a relationship, not someone I do not yet know. If she expects me to spend $100+ when we do not even really know each other yet, I will go find someone less demanding.

[Truthatanycost]

If dating was truly about getting to know a person, and spending quality time together... it wouldn't matter where you went...

But dating isn't about any of those things hence the issues...

[TallAnon]

Honestly, perfectly fine; Not everyone has the budget to make it fancy. Poor people date too.

If you need someone who can invest more money into your relationship, that's fine too. You feel how you feel and if this is not for you, then listen to that feeling.

[Static_In_The_Attic]

A date is a date & as for me I always wanted to take a date to McDonald’s & have a candlelight supper just like the one above.

[teamvic]

I personally wouldn't make that the first date but I get what he's saying too. Bottom line is you both have a difference of opinion and probably won't work.

[RavVid]

Generally I'd think not. Depends on what else you are doing. If you are going to the movies it might be lets get something quick to eat.

Certainly ok if you are at high school.

[4ngelic]

depends how old you are i think. if your in your 30s-40s that's kinda lame honestly. if your a teenager or in your 20s that's pretty normal

[Adam1978]

No you either go for something like a walk or a coffee. Or you actually pick a good eating spot. McDonald's isn't either.

[slatyb]

The discussion was pointless. Clearly you have very different values. I would have just said "Thanks, but I don't think this is going to work."

[Mangospacho]

Probably not a first date - McDonald’s is not that special; it’s what you eat when you don’t have a lot of time to eat. If the date is going to see a movie or some bigger event and you just need a quick meal, McDonald’s should be fine.

[Anonymous]

I won't mind going to McDonald's. I won't mind if it's just walking.. what I would mind is if he would expect sex after when I just want to get to know him.

[Still-alive]

Clearly you're supposed to be turned on af when he buys you that quarter pounder with cheese helloooo

jk lol

I'm all for cheap dates but Fast food places are full of annoying screaming children and nothing kills the sex drive than an annoying screaming child.

[KostasKouvalis]

"Yeah. Yeah, I booked a restaurant. Spoke to the Matris D. Ronald, I think his name was."

[Ninania]

Doesn't matter what his previous dates thought, they're not you. If he wants to date you, he has to take your wishes into consideration, otherwise you're just not a good match.

[WhiteSteve]

I wouldn’t take my lady of 15 years to a McDonald’s lmfao.

[genericname85]

it's definitely not for everyone but i think that's just cool :D

[lightbulb27]

I wouldn't do that, but maybe in some rare scenarios.
