Search Results: first date tips for guys

Mine are. Last time I asked a girl out was my first and only time as well, and after I told my parents I was going to (cause I needed their permission first of course), my mom told me that if we were to become boyfriend/girlfriend to save sex for until it was right. We hadn't even gone on one date yet lol, and she didn't even end up saying yes. And they made it really weird cause they kept asking me if I had asked her yet all the time. Another time I was in the car with my dad and older brother, and my brother brought up the topic of girls and dances and how I should go to dances, and my dad started trying to give me advice saying that I should go to a dance and go up to a girl and be like "I don't give a sh*t if you say no, but let's dance." It's not even like he was being cool about it, cause he's a pretty dorky guy.

I've asked a girl out now, but it hasn't quite been organized yet (we've just said we should do it sometime next week). I don't quite know how to tell my parents. I can't just tell them I'm going with a friend, cause they'd ask what friend and everything. Oh, and yes, I live with them haha. And I can't drive. I'd probably be able to bus there, but they probably wouldn't want me walking/bussing back in the evening... they're like that haha. Any tips on how to tell them while making it as not-awkward as possible?

And of course, what are/were your parents like?

So you like him and he likes you and this is the first date, like ever. You are nervous and psyched and so is he. He picks you up and takes you to a restaurant, but its not like a fancy restaurant, but definitely a restaurant where people go on dates, like an Apple Bees, or Olive Garden. You are enjoying yourself when all of a sudden when it comes time to pay, he busts out a coupon for like a free entree or a free desert. After that, he takes you to the bowling alley where he has a free pass for a bowling game. He is paying but of course. He is also leaving a reasonable tip, just in case you are wondering.

What is your gut reaction to a guy who uses a coupon on a first date?

Note: I've never done this, but I was thinking about it since I just got a coupon to a bowling alley. It's a fancy place not your local Brunswick.
