First date without booze

suit · 19-02-2008 02:50PM #1

Want to ask girl i get on well with/kissed recently, on date.
The last time i met her she commented that i was too drunk. She had a point.
The cinema is out due to lack of conversation.
I was thinking of Bingo. Or is that as bent as it sounds?
Any suggestions

Yes, bingo is as bent as it sounds.

What are you, an elderly woman?

Picnic and make some effort with it.

Nothing more magical than a night at the owl bingo. It'll be a night they'll never forget.. :rolleyes:

*Insert clever joke about bingo ball numbers*

ThE_IVIAcIVIAIV · 19-02-2008 02:56PM

i can't believe he said bingo. what a joke.

Local methadone clinic? You can't beat a bit of cross addiction/substitution.

ems_12 · 19-02-2008 02:58PM

not bingo, you'll just get distracted by the two fat ladies
(clever enough bad bingo joke?!)

Anywho how about (depending on location....) ...bowling, ice skating, mini golf, play pool, walk (find nice location), theatre, something in local area like aquarium or other attraction....

humanji · 19-02-2008 02:58PM

You could go to the pub and not drink so much!!!

kmick · 19-02-2008 02:59PM

How about a meal. You can do that without booze. Its a nuetral venue. If its not going well you can climb out bathroom window and stiff her for the bill*.

NoQuarter · 19-02-2008 02:59PM

go bowling or playing pool, easy peasy

bingo:rolleyes:

Donegal Lass · 19-02-2008 03:02PM

what about bowling/arcade typy thing? I wouldnt even suggest bingo if you actually want her to turn up, but that said, you must think she'd be interested if you think its appropriate?

Spud83 · 19-02-2008 03:03PM

Bring her to the bingo and please please let us know how it goes. I foresee a very weird PI in your future.

Bingo? Who are you asking out ... Glenda?

Maybe its Shirley Temple-Bar

moco · 19-02-2008 03:06PM

Lol @ bingo:D

Why not just go to a pub and not get hammered?

You need alcohol for a first date! I do anyway...:o

halfinch · 19-02-2008 03:06PM

Whatever you do dont bring her to bingo, the cinema isnt so bad if you go for something casual like a pizza beforehand....

But like the other posters said, a walk or play pool or bowling or whatever

What in the name of god made you think of bingo

muppetkiller · 19-02-2008 03:08PM

Why not Coffee and lunch ? Does it have to be at night time ?

AARRRGH · 19-02-2008 03:12PM

I'm going to assume you're in Dublin.

Why not a stroll (with Coffee/Hot Chocolate) in the Iveagh Gardens (behind the National Concert Hall), followed by a pre-Theatre dinner and a trip to an opera or something in the National Concert Hall? Women love that stuff.

Or for something different you could do the Ghost Bus thing in Dublin.

You could play pool in the Palace on Camden Street?

19-02-2008 03:16PM

Sorry OP but I cant believe you said Bingo!!!!!!????? HAHAHAHA

Thats one of the funniest things I've seen on here in a while and thank you it made me LOL .

Eh.. not all women...

Really depends on her tastes and this is a little "coupley" for a first date

All of them seem interesting but I reckon the Ghost Bus could be good craic and then if things go well you may end up in the pub afterwards.

@Dublindude Boy the woman who gets taken out by your is very lucky, your full of ideas.

That's a bit much, I'm still laughing at bingo though.

I want to go on the ghosty bus

NeMiSiS · 19-02-2008 03:24PM

The Zoo.

19-02-2008 03:24PM

****ing Bingo omg lol

Rob_l · 19-02-2008 03:32PM

OP Bingo is pure brilliance but don't do it I want this one.
I promise for the next time I go on a date its bingo I'm bringing the lucky girl too.
Then I'll play it as straight as can be and continuously tell her how I come here all the time and love the place.

Reaction will be supreme and if I can still keep her interested after that I'll be a feckin hero:cool:

Women always say they want something different, right here the OP has something so different no one ever thinks of it well spot on buddy its a funny way of taking the piss out of her for slagging your drinking and also makes for a very easy conversation starter and shared funny memory.

Ross_Mahon · 19-02-2008 03:53PM
