When you want to come

KILL THE PRIME MINISTER OF MALAYSIA

Bathe and shave before your date. Don't count on being nice smelling after a long day of work.

Change into something appropriate for the venue of your date.

Ask about her interests. She's a runner. Ask her if she's a member of the NYRR club and if she's going to do the NYM. It's sort of a big deal for folks in the running fraternity. Oh, and don't get freaked out when she says something like "only 15 miles". To folks in the distance running community ten miles is a warm up.

Be funny, but don't try to make everything a joke.

Be well mannered. Open doors. Walk on the street side of the sidewalk. Offer to carry her stuff. Chicks dig it when they meet a guy younger than their dad who actually knows how to treat a woman.

Get excited and show excitement over actually doing stuff. If appropriate, offer to do stuff together that she likes to do. For instance, you could say something like "wow. Half marathon huh? I need to get in better shape and it's so hard living in the city. You think you could help me get off the couch?" Or "I heard about this crazy zombie 5k down in Baltimore in October. I know it sounds crazy, but my nutty friend Paleocon and his wife are going to do it. Is this the kind of thing you do too?".

If she expresses interest in your activities, offer them too. If she wants to see your show, tell her you'd love that. Don't make a big deal about comping her tickets. Just tell her you'd be really happy to have at least one friendly face in the audience.

Oh, and remember that dating is an opportunity for both of you to decide if this is right for you. If she isn't reciprocating your effort, don't be afraid to cut the evening short.

Offer to impartially rate the quality of her Brazilian by sight and texture.

And if it goes bad, remember the solution to everything:

1. Pack your bags.
2. Move away!

Don't buy her a rose at a gas station. They may actually be a pair of thong panties rolled up to look like a rose.

Along this line, make sure to use her name often. "Hi Jessie, welcome to our date Jessie! What would you like to eat tonight Jessie?"

If you can somehow manage to get her name tattooed on you during the date that never fails. Never.

It's a first date. At the very, very worst, she won't like you, and you'll be just as single as you are right now.

You literally have nothing to lose. So no need to panic.

Assuming she's not a murderer or somesuch, of course, in which case you actually have something to worry about. Otherwise, not so much.

Also, you get to check out a bar you haven't been to!

Talk less listen more is good advice.
Hard part is getting her to freely talk.

One topic I fall back on if nothing seems to be going is vacation talk.
I ask them to recommend me a place to go or where they would like to go and why. (not so directly of course)
It brings up memories of good times and makes them excited for future plans.
Getting her to open up and laugh with you about the stupid stuff they did on vacation usually works to get flowing into other conversations.

*Disclaimer: I'm 26 and single. So maybe taking dating advice for me isn't a good idea, but then again I haven't been turned down for many second dates.

Is the dragon having a good time? It's hard to tell with dragons.

It's more likely he's just doing his duty.

Don't tell that to the bus then...

There are few things as hot as a gorgeous latina who can execute a perfect flying triangle.

It's a service I provide.

Alright guys, I'm departing for the date. It's pouring and I'm nervous as all hell. But here goes nothing!

Good luck. Hope you remembered to rub one out beforehand, so you're thinking clearly.

I saw the thread title and thought "CF is going to win this thread in one sentence."

If it were possible to bet money on a such a thing I would be angry at myself for not doing so.

Aw, too late to say, on the other hand, buy her a rose at a gas station. They may actually be a pair of thong panties rolled up to look like a rose

Remember, the key to that sentence is beforehand, not during.

No updates yet. Escape plan foxtrot must have not been needed.

I dunno man, because: when in doubt, whip it out

He's like that in person, too.

The leg humping isn't as endearing as you might think, though.

If the date's going poorly and you have nothing to lose, go for it. It might improve your chances.

That, or he can't type with 9 fingers.
