Dating In DC 101 ~ "What Men Want"



Chapter 5 ~ "The First Date" Part II

Now remember these are words from the mouths of three New York male professionals: A lawyer, a surgeon, and a CPA. Agree with them or not, this is their perspective and I'm just sharing their insight with you. So let's finish where we left off, "The First Date".


Where to Go

  • If he takes the initiative to plan the date, then go for it, unless it is dangerous or truly crazy. He doesn't want to spend time agonizing over the details of where to go and what to do only to be shot down by you.
"You want to go there? That place is terrible. I wouldn't take my dog there!"

  • Men typically like cozy, intimate, unpretentious places for first dates. Nothing says "Good First Date" like a good piano bar.
Fortunately for us in the Nation's Capital we have so many great places to choose from.
Piano Bars
Cigar Bars (well not so much, but I like them)
Poetry Readings
All good choices

  • If he chooses a movie as a first date, he is either shy, dating challenged, or doesn't want to be seen in public with you. And you have to discern which one of these issues is the real reason you're sitting in a dark theater, with a bucket of greasy popcorn on your lap and a gynormous coke in the cup holder.
Hopefully it is a movie you really want to see, 
or
just take a nap. 
You don't have to worry about snoring, no one can hear you, 
not even your date.

  • Museums and art exhibits are excellent choices too. He has some culture and wants to get to know you better. Hopefully he will let you know in advance so that you can do a little research on what artist is being featured or the history of the stone that is being previewed. If he surprises you, then asks questions, men love to think they are teaching you a thing or two.

Chapter 5 is a long one so there is more to come. Stay tuned and

Smooches and Happy Dating!
