    Ragu has it correct. Keep the conversation light when you first talk, see if you appreciate at least talking to her. If you can't manage a fluid conversation with her, well, don't go on the date. It would just be far more awkward. If you like what you hear and you get along, arrange for going for a cup of coffee or a drink later in the night and go from there.

    Ragu's nailed it.

    You want the first date to be short, casual and if it's a disaster, you have to be able to bail after fifteen minutes without anyone losing face or out serious coin. It you connect, your coffee date could be a couple of hours.

    Movie on a first date? Never. Even us old guys know that.

    A friend's girlfriend set three of us up with blind dates in college. We all met at some party. No major sparks but no "arrrgghhhh" moments either. One of the three was significantly better looking than the others and the guy who was paired with her was getting more excited as the night wore on.
    I think, he told us confidently, we're going downtown.

    About 20 minutes later, she started ralphing and didn't stop for quite some time. Pretty much all of it went right on our buddy. I don't know that I'd ever laughed as hard before (or since). Rest of the party got into it, too, except her two friends (and our dates), who were more disgusted with us than with their friend. So we didn't go downtown either.

    We'd ask him about it weeks, months, years later and go, "What was her name again? Oh yeah! Ralllphhhhhhhh."

    Oh God, please don't. It's not like anyone with any sense can't see right through that. Be honest ... or at least attempt to be clever.
