What not to do.

Seriously, this guy makes the kid who asks a girl to check yes or no seem smooth.

-You said, "It was nice to meet you." at the end of our date. A woman could say this statement as a way to show that she isn't interested in seeing a man again or she could mean what she said--that it was nice to meet you. The statement, by itself, is inconclusive.

That's funny, I thought "it was nice to meet you" was code for "on the next date I will **** you senseless and I can't wait."

Is that not right?

Hard to believe he's single. ::)

 

[LongTimeListener]

About two-thirds of the way in, he says: "I suggest that we continue to go out and see what happens. Needless to say, I find you less appealing now (given that you haven't returned my messages) than I did at our first date. However, I would be willing to go out with you again."

Really makes a gal feel special.

I am leaning toward this being a hoax but I really want it to be true.

Not an investment banker. Manages mom & pops millions.

Not that either necessarily means you are a socially-inept dork.

I love the NY Philharmonic, too. No, I don't want to date Mike. My hair is really thinning and I keep it fairly short, so if I do ever date him, I guarantee I won't be twirling it in a suggestive way.

I can say that the Philharmonic is not the best place to meet women, unless you like em a little past ripe. We're in our early 40s, hit at least a dozen performances a year, and we usually comment about about how we are bringing the median age down two decades.

Ok, this is my favourite part:

I've gone out with a lot of women in my life. (FYI, I'm not a serial dater. Sometimes, I've only gone out with a woman for one date.) People don’t grow on trees.

Where do they grow then?

Marshlands?

On the top of mountains?

Caves?

"You played with your hair a lot" apparently = "we're now mated for life."

Seriously, this guy makes even ME look smooth.

Let's not go talking crazy here.

People grow in pods, connected to some kind of vine or vague tendril.
In your basement, closet, or garage.
While your asleep.

Very similar to YGBFKM's first PM to me:

In what bizarro world?

 

[Care Bear]

He had me at "inventory." Or perhaps "sweetie." I melted at both terms.

 

[dooley_womack1]

Inventory of seven? Pshaw, you should have told him you had an inventory of 10.
