First Date

Cham Zord · 09-01-2004, 03:27 PM

I got a girlfriend, hip hip horray!

Except I don't know where to go for our first date. >_< I need suggestions, decent suggestions. Other than the movies. No, I don't need comments on how anyone thinks I'm too young for stuff like this, just decent suggestions. I'm not good at dating and stuff like that. ~_~

Ike · 09-01-2004, 03:31 PM

Mabye you could go to dinner or something.

***CaptHayfever*** · 09-01-2004, 03:40 PM

Definitely dinner.
Aside from that, go somewhere that you two can talk while you do whatever that place's purpose is.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Viceroy Nute Gunray · 09-01-2004, 04:17 PM

Maybe bowling or miniature golf? Try something a little more fun on the first date.

Phenom · 09-01-2004, 05:09 PM

I wouldn't call her a girlfriend when you haven't gone out for the first time yet. But yeah, Knux has the right idea. Some place fun over anything serious.

Cham Zord · 09-01-2004, 06:47 PM

Well, it's been decided to go to a restaraunt called Cafe on the Corner, see a movie, and walk around downtown. Hmm, I hope everything goes all right, even though I'm a bit strapped on cash...

The Missing Link · 09-01-2004, 06:54 PM

Kudos on the miniature golf idea. =)

Dinner & a movie. It's extremely cliché, but you can't really go wrong with it. Not like I know anything, though.

Cham Zord · 09-03-2004, 06:38 PM

I'm back. Everything went great; we had lunch, walked around town, saw the myriad attractions my tiny city has to offer, then I went to her house.

Unfortunately, now my mom thinks I'm too young for dating...

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 09-03-2004, 06:51 PM

heh, yeah that'll happen...

SilverWind · 09-03-2004, 06:52 PM

Awww! ^_^()

Well, my suggestion is to show your mom that you're responsible. Try to convince her it's alright for you to go out with your girlfriend-- never too late, always inform her where you're going, etc. Small things first, like just going to the park together in the afternoon, you know? Show her that she can trust you, and that trust should increase. ^_^ Good luck.

^ Word up. That's what I would do. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Vinny · 09-10-2004, 02:48 PM

Wait, aren't you in high school by now? And she thinks you're too young for dating? What the hell?

My mom ENCOURAGES me to date. The other day she asked me if I'd found out that playing guitar (I play guitar, obviously) attracts girls yet. It can be a bit awkward at times, but I respect her for that, because unlike 99% of other moms, she doesn't pretend that she was a sweet little angel when she was my age. It would be simply hypocritical of her to do so, and she acknowledges that. I think all mothers should realize that. Either they've all forgotten what being a teenager was like, or they don't want their kids to do what they did at that age. I'm betting on the latter.

Sorry, I can't resist.

In all seriousness, though, if your mom thinks you're "too young", then prove how mature you are. Do things that test the whole "trust" thing. Do what the other members told you to do. Mostly, don't do anything stupid, and you'll be alright.

And perhaps the "too young" thing is just an excuse made because there was no other real good reason to defend with to prevent you from doing this. Or I'm just overevaluating.

1989 would be grade 10 right? Is your mom an uber-christian or somethng?

Seriously though, just maturely tell her that pretty much eveyrone has dated for years at your age. (At least around here.)

I wish my tiny city was slightly bigger. Our downtown is like maybe 3-4 blocks.

Cham Zord · 09-27-2004, 06:09 PM

Sorry to bump it, but I have found a response.

I am in high school, but I'm a freshman, and my mom says not all freshmen are in high school.

I was born in 1989, but I'm in 9th grade. December 27 is late 1989.

I told her about how other kids my age have been dating for years, but she's just like "None of the moms I talk to have said that." I guess she doesn't get out much.

She doesn't respond to the whole trust thing. She just says I'm too young.

Well, did you try proving your maturity? You may be "too young" in her eyes, but maturity is not age-dependant. At least, that's what I think. Just ask her how you can prove that you are mature enough for a relationship.
Also, does she at least let you still date? If my mom thought I was too young, but still would let me date, than I'd be thankful that she at least allowed me to.

I don't think my mom really cares anymore, she used to have a thing about an age limit, but now, she's kinda lienant. I wouldn't minded the age thing, she's doing the best she can for a single parent.
