Search Results: second date ideas

I am a conservative and I believe in the Second Amendment. I also support many environmental issues. I like Rush Limbaugh but dislike Sean Hannity. I respect Bernie Sanders and Joe Lieberman, but I think Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters are idiots. I like Ted Cruz and Trey Gowdy but dislike Mitch McConnell and John McCain. All conservatives are not alike and the same is true of liberals.

In our current political climate, there is a pervasive attitude that "we are right and they are wrong." That, of course, does not help to bridge any gaps or heal any wounds. I dated a liberal woman for two years and never thought that she was stupid for being liberal. I thought that she simply had different ideas about the role of government in our lives. I disagreed with those choices, obviously, but I can't say they they are wrong.

How do you feel about the political opposition? Are they idiots or are they people who have simply made different choices about the role of government in our lives?

So a girl friendzoned me the other day despite having seeming to be very interested prior. We met through a mutual friend at a couple social gatherings and she agreed we should go on a date. Setting something up was difficult coming up on finals week of senior year/work etc. During this time communication was pretty minimal because we were both busy and because would have preferred to talk in person. I tried seeing if she'd be interested in catching a movie or getting something to eat/drink later one day and her response was that she wasn't too busy but wasn't looking for anything and wished me the best moving forward. We then messaged a bit more making some jokes about mutual interests and I said I'd still look forward to seeing her at gatherings with the mutual friend. I feel like never having met 1 on 1 we never really got a chance to get to know eachother and feel that first impressions were probably that i am awkward. The second time i hugged her and kissed her on the cheek which was probably a bad move... I was a bit more drunk than i had meant to be. However at the bar we were hanging out together and on the way back jokes were made about us being a couple etc. I think this may have made her feel uncomfortable/forced... any ideas about anything? Tbh not really sure what I'm asking... maybe if its still okay for me to try to land a date at some point moving forward? Thoughts?
