A friend of mine is experiencing the joys of dating for the first time and I was just curious about 'Messer's experiences--what works/what doesn't, what do you talk about/what don't you, what activities can be fun etc... I know movies and things like that are go-tos but I'm not a big fan of those.

I celebrated nine years of marriage yesterday. But I think when I dated I basically just pointed at my crotch and asked if anyone saw anything they liked lot. Maybe not. It's been a while.

I like mini-golf and bowling. Somewhat competitive, but in a fun, silly way for most. And casual. No romantic entanglements required. Plus, they let you get to know someone's level of playfulness, which is healthy in a relationship.

I've never dated, so I really don't know anything.

Nothing soppy or over the top...
Fun is the key.
Stay away from dating websites and webcams...

Movies are good. Diners -- if you have one in your area -- are a great way to talk in a low-stress environment. And if my experiences are any indication, if you and your date get hopped up on enough caffeine, magical things will happen in the nearest abandoned parking lot.

after a gf and I of 8 years broke up, and i was dating-rusty, i was smart enough to do two things-- find a girl about half my age, and let her take the lead. because young girls just do whatever the fuck they want (and they haven't had time to marinate into bitter man-hating hags yet), and they don't mind telling you that you also need to just do whatever the fuck they want. generally it involves coffee, a movie, a shit-ton of booze, and a lot of dirty, foul-mouthed fucking, in that order, as CJ would know, considering his namesake.

I laughed very loudly at this.
I've been married seven years. I love my wife, I'm very happy, but if something ever happened and I was single again, I don't know what the fuck I'd do. Christ... I couldn't go through dating again. Geez... the slow opening up of myself, the person seeing what a colossal, immature fuck up I am, the baggage, finding out that I have 849,000 more faults that I never knew I had...
I guess I'd have to wash down a bottle of sleeping pills with a bottle of Wild Turkey.

Give it a try. They don't bite, unless you catch a good one.

Married for 15 years now, our first date we went to dinner and went for a drive and just looked at the stars. We made the 610 loop in Houston twice annever ran out of things to talk about. Don't ever try to put on a show. If they don't appreciate you for who you are, it will never work.

Don't talk about yourself unless you're asked a question. Women love to talk about stuff so just listen and throw in the odd question to keep your date talking.
Don't talk about your ex.
If anything other than your ears have piercings, save the show and tell for at least date 3 or 4.
