yes i've never done that before!!



strangely enough though, i went on a first date last night. Jeans and my lucky green polo. I always run better with girls when im wearing that shirt

7/3/2009 12:01:12 PM

^ Did you get lucky?

7/3/2009 12:04:20 PM

well i already consider myself to be a lucky guy, so yes



but if u mean sex or something, no. I did get a second date tho

7/3/2009 12:10:39 PM

Well done! I hope you have another lucky shirt in your wardrobe. Otherwise, wear the shirt again and see if she notices.

7/3/2009 12:13:51 PM

ahh see well i actually have 2 lucky green shirts, so i can wear the other one and its different color of green so it wont look the same. May even make me look sexier

7/3/2009 12:15:13 PM

I haven't been on a "first date" in years. I don't meet many guys.


But I will just say, that I would wear something to show off my boobs.

7/3/2009 12:37:03 PM

You do have a nice rack

7/3/2009 12:37:50 PM

I would prefer a first date wear something that shows off their legs, hips, and butt.

not a boob man, obviously

7/3/2009 12:38:35 PM

Then we should go out. I'm all butt, baby.

7/3/2009 12:42:12 PM

^^^thanks boo

^^understandable. I have pretty nice legs too, but I never shave them so that eliminates showing them off. Unless the dude likes apes.

[Edited on July 3, 2009 at 12:42 PM. Reason : slow. also, I don't really have an ass.]

7/3/2009 12:42:19 PM

7/3/2009 12:47:19 PM

is this a butt man role call now?

7/3/2009 12:54:31 PM

Something like this is what I had in mind. But I would prefer if it were a little shorter

I wanna go on a first date with shawana.

7/3/2009 1:30:42 PM

if it's like my other first dates, it will also be a last date lol


I really hate "dating"

7/3/2009 1:31:26 PM

I just want to see how you would show off your boobs anyways.

7/3/2009 1:33:43 PM

well if you want to buy me dinner so you can look at my cleavage for a couple hours, I'm down.

7/3/2009 1:41:04 PM

i don't mind showin my cleavage for some dinner

7/3/2009 1:42:38 PM

Ack! My date will be here at 6 pm. I can't wear a cocktail dress at 6 pm. Lord. What to wear at 6 that will take me to midnight?

7/3/2009 5:33:09 PM

jeans

7/3/2009 5:34:52 PM

ooh boobs. you in Wilmington right, shawna? lets go get food.

7/3/2009 5:36:11 PM

Not there at the moment, no. Do you live in Wilmington?

7/3/2009 5:45:10 PM

nah, currently staying in Garner and working in Raleigh. I'm actually from Leland though and my parents still live here so I'm taking a break from raleigh until Tuesday.

7/3/2009 5:50:33 PM

oh word

you should go downtown tonight and get wasted

cause that's always fun

7/3/2009 5:58:13 PM

I despise downtown but i'll probably end up there or wrightsville beach with some friends tonight.

7/3/2009 6:00:41 PM

treat it like extreme dating

bring a few changes of clothes and end up in the hot tub a the end

7/3/2009 6:41:12 PM

you could wear one of those maternity dresses that chicks like to wear nowadays

7/3/2009 6:55:13 PM

Went with jeans and a ruffly blue top. This was date #2 with one guy. He asked if we could be exclusive. Ack! Wtf. Not to be ugly, but I've been on the site for a week. I want my money's worth.

And I have a date lined up with him for tomorrow. but I have dates with other new guys lined up from sunday through wednesday.

Match is really weird.

7/4/2009 1:04:10 AM

do you wanna be steadies?!?

7/4/2009 1:05:32 AM

Congrats on all the dates. Looks like you're going to get to test out your full wardrobe.

That would be correct if the arguement was about health....unfortunately, we were discussing rather you were a small girl/teeny....which you still are.

And it's not like saying you are small is a put down. It is in no way a put down.

7/4/2009 1:55:10 AM

Haha. I think I'm going to get to test out the full wardrobe. I feel the need to hit up the Macy's outlet, suddenly.

Memorable quote from yesterday, "do you want to go see fireworks tomorrow, or would you rather we make our own private fireworks?" Lord. I may bring my taser.

And my colleague just messaged me via match for being desperate and doing Internet dating. LOL ... But he's been on the site for a year. Dork,

7/4/2009 8:17:30 AM

^From your quotes, Match is really coming off as a place for the social inept. There's gotta be a decent percentage of normal peeps on there...but not looking like it right now.

7/4/2009 9:11:00 AM

^ He just called and asked me to go to lunch. I said, no, I am getting ready to head to a 4th of July party. He asked if it was another match date. I said, "Uh, no, I do have friends, you know."

I may be cancelling tonight's date! He's getting clingy. I suppose it's generally bad to have someone ask you out for several future dates before the end of the second. Easy, boy.

7/4/2009 10:46:53 AM

1) What do you wear on a first date?
(a) Dinner/Drinks --- a dress. sundress to maybe a semiformal dress depending on the place
(b) Activity Date--i.e., bowling, mini-golf, Gatorland -- something comfortable.
(c) Casual Encounters from Craigslist Excursion -----

What do you like your date to wear on a first date?
(a) Dinner/Drinks --- the male equivalent of 1a.
(b) Activity Date--i.e., bowling, mini-golf, Gatorland --- something comfortable
(c) Casual Encounters from Craigslist Excursion -----

7/4/2009 10:50:25 AM

^ You'd want a guy to wear a kilt to a wine bar? Isn't that the male equivalent of a dress? Or would it be a toga?

7/4/2009 10:51:14 AM

^^^
yeah for real...guy is either crazy about you or doesn't understand how dating works...probably both
while we're on the subject of dates...
I met this chick at a party on Wednesday, got her e-mail and e-mailed her yesterday asking her out for coffee. she replied a few hours later, saying sure, and that sometime next week would be fine. I am thinking Thursday (it would really be most convenient for me), but do ya think suggesting Thursday would come across as trying too hard not to care? or is Thursday perfectly reasonable?

V that's how I prefer to roll, when I think I can get away with it

7/4/2009 10:51:58 AM

^^ sureeeeee

^lol @ email.

7/4/2009 10:53:07 AM

5^ , 7^

are lots of guys like this in general, or do you think it's the internet weirdness?

[Edited on July 4, 2009 at 10:54 AM. Reason : ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^]

7/4/2009 10:53:55 AM

lucyinthesky, i'll wear whatever you want me to wear on our first date

7/4/2009 10:55:19 AM

^^^^ You got her EMAIL? No #? That's funny. Thursday is absolutely reasonable on a holiday weekend. If it weren't a holiday weekend, you'd be in trouble.

And I'm not sure if he's just clingy or old. He's 34, so perhaps he's getting antsy to settle down. I'm thinking he's just clingy though.

^^ Even the guys I meet offline tend to try to plan our wedding on the first date. The last two guys I dated offline got extremely clingy extremely fast. One invited me to go on vacation with him and his family 3 months from then. The other had a list of about ten dates pre-planned by the second date.

^ Clothes are overrated.

What in the hell? Just when I thought women had a monopoly on crazy, a few of my brethren pull stunts like this??!!

i have never dated any guys that i just met online who didn't have RL mutual friends with me. that's semi-creepy, IMO.

my only odd experience with dating someone who became weird was this guy who said he loved me after like three days of dating.

@JeffreyBSG: yeah, why didnt you get her number?


my latest first date outfit:





[Edited on July 4, 2009 at 11:08 AM. Reason : a]

7/4/2009 11:05:25 AM

Actually, we were at a bar, and I was really drunk and put my arm around her and nuzzled my face into her shoulder. She said "Take your hand off me" so I did. And also, either before or after this, I tried to convince her to come back to my place, because I remember her saying "I'm not going home with you." Anyway, after all that, it struck my drunken mind that asking her for her e-mail, rather than her phone number, would probably be a really nice contrast. So I told her I thought she was really cool and asked for her e-mail and she smiled and gave it to me.

7/4/2009 11:10:32 AM

^^^ There are some clingy/stalker men out there. Then again, I have really bad luck to boot. My friends joke that I'm the real life version of Mary from "There's Something About Mary."

^^ And "I love you" after 3 days? That's either "I'm crazy" or "I want to get in your pants."

AND WOW, where did you get that dress?

^ I, too prefer email. I can check my gmail via blackberry, and you don't have to worry about character limits. And you can send nekkid pics w/better resolution!

[Edited on July 4, 2009 at 11:14 AM. Reason : .]

7/4/2009 11:11:47 AM

^^i'm surprised she replied to your email if she was all "don't touch me" and whatnot.

^Martin + Osa. They've got a store in Crabtree. Lots of really nice, good quality stuff. I call it "AE for older people" since it's owned by the same company.

New email. I only emailed this guy ONE TIME and I have not met him. WTF.

" "Hi Lucy !! Pretty name... I'm Alfred... I really think you are a cute and fun girl to be around with. After reading your profile it seem to me like you have an awesome personality so do I, lol....I think is awesome to work for {your company} that way you can travel all over. I have a friend who used to work there and he used to travel quite often...Regarding your trip to Colorado, sound great to me...I mean, If i have to choose other states to live that would be either Colorado or Hawaii...That way, I can either surf or snowboard...How about you ? Have you been in Costa Rica ? Nice place too..I have plans for a surf trip to the rain forest of Costa Rica.. Lucy, I don't know what else to say for now but one thing is for sure...I would like to get to know you since we have such passion for the very same things. Did you surf ? That’s super cool. Do you have a board ? Maybe we can plan on going surfing any time...I also play tennis so since you said that you are always looking for new tennis partners so do i, here i come..I love playing tennis too. I play tennis once a week.. Maybe we could plan going to Colorado in winter...That would be a hit!! Well Lucy, hope you to have a wonderful 4th of July!! Looking to hear from you sooner than later..."

Oh my. Let's plan a trip to Colorado?
