    Back story: Meet a lovely lady there last week and we hit it off and had a little kiss at the end of the night. Saw her once more during the week and we kissed again. Been invited round to her place for dinner tonight.

    dress nice and clean but don't overdo it
    bring some decent wine and pralines and flowers
    watch for her signals if you get lucky tonight
    offer to help with meal prep and clean-up afterwards

    good luck

    When she's bringing in the dinner, lob your lad out on to the table and say: ''There's your main course there, love.''

    She'll be putty in your hands.

    I don’t know about that if she’s bringing the dinner in the shock might cause her to spill something hot on it. That wouldn’t be fun for anyone.

    I think revealing that he has a son so early in their relationship, might prove to be detrimental. And offering him up as some ritualistic style cannibal sacrifice, might also not help matters.

    I'm laughing at some of the replies, classical! - Doc, it kind of depends, is she your next one nighter/fcuk buddy ,or are you actually into her and want to see where this will go!?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,002 ✭✭✭jay-me


    Do the usual and bring some wine and after dinner chocs if your feeling extra generous.. After the meal and washing up suggest some nice slow romantic music and get her to sit with you on the couch.. Then when she is nicely relaxed.. Blast her with piss!

    She didn't put out on the first night so this one's a keeper!

    Bring a bottle of Lambrusco and a Romantica for dessert, you wont need the Romantica*



    *Nor the Lambrusco.

    Give yourself a good grooming down below.

    Get nice wine (€25 minimum) and swot up on it from the internet beforehand so you appear sophisticated.

    Bite your tongue when she puts on Adele or Coldplay while you're eating dinner.

    Avoid all potentially controversial topics of conversation.

    80's Ballads, like Chicago and I think Huey Lewis and the News had one, definitely Phil Collins.

    Inert obligatory quote from American Psycho here but that's all about the inserting you'll be doing, though this is from my 1998 dating book, chicks might dig chainsaws now.

    Never worked for me, particularly singing the Monty Python "I'm a Lumberjack" song but times have moved on, women are more "adventurous" ;) now.

    That was my fear! Patrick Bateman would be in tears. Really you should watch American Psycho, its like a dating guide for dummies:[URL]="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0144084/quotes"[/URL]
    Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Christy, take off your robe. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. Sabrina, remove your dress. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.
    Do you like Huey Lewis and the News?

    Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far much more bitter, cynical sense of humor.
    Yes it is! In '87, Huey released this, Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.

    Ask her if she would mind wearing the carcass of a dead sheep during sex.

    Define good grooming. As a woman, I'd expect the man to have clean underwear and have some basic hygienic habits already. If he puts his pants down though and is clean shaved and smells of perfume down there, I'd be asking myself whether he's not with me to get to my brother.

    Rope and chloroform OP. That'll put all doubts aside!

    In my opinion that would fall into the 'over doing it' category. She might think he's trying to be flash! No-one likes a show off.

    You've snogged her twice and she's invited you round for dinner? There is very little you can do to mess it up now. Don't be late, bring wine, look reasonably like you made an effort. If you watch a movie don't go on and on about the hot actress. Tell your date she looks nice. Don't get into a row.
