Other places to avoid are eateries where you’re expected to use your hands to feed yourself. A first date doesn’t want to watch you maul your barbeque ribs and chicken legs like The Missing Link. No one likes
thought of being touched later on by greasy fingers. And have you ever eaten corn on cob and come away with clean teeth?
A Family Function I don’t know about your family, but a few of my great-aunts have hairy faces. I mean really hairy, with partial beards and hairy moles. One of my uncles thinks he’s still living in 1880 and uses every racist expression ever known. So it goes without saying that I never brought dates to family functions. And you shouldn’t either. Weddings, reunions, baptisms, bat mitzvahs, and especially funerals, are out.
There’s no such thing as a family that isn’t dysfunctional. It doesn’t exist. If you bring a first or second date to a family function be prepared for somebody to embarrass you. Grandma will ask you two when you’re getting married and when to expect great grandchildren. And your little cousin Eunice will promptly tell your date all about time you farted in church.
Your Parent’s House for Dinner I can’t think of a more uncomfortable setting than sitting at a dinner table with complete strangers in their own house. Don’t put a date through this torture. You may have hippest parents in world. They may intelligent, hospitable and interesting. But don’t subject anyone you just recently met to your parents for an entire dinner.
Often parent of your same sex looks like you’re going to look in twenty five years. You’ll find your date sizing up your parent asking themselves whether they’ll be ok with your pot belly and hairy ears a couple of decades from now.
Bringing your date to your parent’s house is just asking for trouble. Your mom may temporarily forget that you’re trying to make an impression and start talking to you like you’re thirteen years old again, “Before you leave tonight my little muffin, can you take your hemorrhoid ointment out of our medicine cabinet, daddy keeps using it for lip cream by mistake.”
Dates can be traumatic and nerve-racking in best of places so don’t make it harder on either of you than you have to. There are some great places to take a date that will make you look like a hero, won’t cost you too much, will give you just enough time to talk to each other, but will also provide an entertaining distraction.
I’m talking about museums, jazz shows, rock concerts, musicals, art shows, plays and live comedy. These are all cool places to bring a first or second date. They allow you to talk and be entertained at same time. These types of places make date memorable, distinct and out of ordinary. It shows you put more than just a little thought in idea. And if you’re trying to get someone to go out with you for first time, find out what kind of bands, shows, comedians or plays they like, buy a couple of tickets, and casually invite them along with an explanation like your buddy just cancelled on you and you have a free ticket that you don’t want to waste.
