Regarding your first point, the freezer just opened so it makes sense 🙂
Make sure your parents know exactly what you want but do it in the most respectful way possible.
truth be told
Neighbors can also see when they walk out of the house together when leaving on the date. Just saying…
Dovv
Wow you sound annoying 🙂
More than I should…
tumid bsimcha
100% right!
MDG
Now I’m confused. Are you a guy or a girl?
popa
LOL
We should really ask what we EAT after dates…
bochur24
I see what your saying. Still, when a guy walks me to the door his ratings go up a few notches 🙂
Yeah if deep down I know I won’t be attracted to him later on. I think to continue dating would be leading him on.
Sac
Never thought about gray. I’ll probably stick to black though.
popa
Did that seriously happen to you?

I wouldn’t go as far as to say the guy is acting boorishly if he doesn’t walk a girl to the door. I guess some people have a Rav who find it to be a problem of tznius.

Speak for yourself. Like tumid bsimcha, I also know LOTS of girls who would prefer the guy to walk them to the door.

“Would you drop off a friend and just watch from the car to make sure he/she got in? I think most people would say yes.”
The way you treat a date should be very different than how you treat a friend…
“I think there is an old thread on this same topic. “
Here’s one that’s the opposite of this:

“Do we have to be sober?”
Yeah, cuz we wouldn’t want to have to ban chayav inish livisumay.

Reminds me of the story where a guy grabbed a girl back as she was about to step off the curb with a car speeding towards her. She dumped him for it.
1) I know. It sounds like we’re big babies but we like it 🙂
2) True. I also know that a lot of guys speak to their Rav about it and just follow what he says which is why I wouldn’t fault a guy if he doesn’t do it for me.
3) I don’t see why you think it’s awkward. Even if it’s 5 seconds what makes it more awkward than the last 5 seconds in the car?
1) It’s polite – makes a girl feel protected.
2) It shows that a guy cares. I wouldn’t dump a guy if he didn’t walk me to the door but he definitely gets points if he does.
3) What makes it more awkward? It’s not a big production. You just get out with her and as your walking say thanks and good night or finish up your conversation.

It’s chivalrous…just do it! And it doesn’t have to be awkward…it’s a few steps…talk about what you would say right before she got out of the car had you not been walking her to the door.
veteran
I sure hope you treat a date differently than a babysitter!
Sac
Yeah. I tried blue…it looked really cool but I’m too conservative to walk outta the house in that.
I have big eyes so I can get away with not too much liner.
MDG
Lots of men say they want natural. If you’d only know what the girls go through to pull off the natural look…
Yup. Eye shadow as eye liner. Recommended to me by the MAC person lol.
Sac
I’ll try it – I actually use just black (actually dark brownish) eye shadow now. It give a softer look.
mikehall12382
I know someone who asked for a Jack Daniels!
Ofcourse
I think his point was that he didn’t want to do certain things yet did them to make the girl happy.
Sac
Thanks. I wanted to try gel next.
always here
You’re right! Now let’s see if the Mods will agree 🙂
I heard from someone that the “rule” is to put on a show until the 3rd date. From then on you should be yourself. I’m not sure how that works for people who get engaged after 3 dates…
“Can we hear from the girls? Is it appreciated or not?”
Yup, it’s appreciated.
I’ve had all scenarios:
– walking to the door
– walking to the steps
– walking to the walkway
– stepping out of the car
– staying in the car
I think all waited until I got inside though.
Sapphire
Thanks a lot!

You’re a guy and you know of a salad recipe? Wow!
I heard about a group of women who committed to being totally prepared for Shabbos by 1pm. Beautiful, in my opinion.
Water!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t like going out to eat, feel uncomfortable doing that on a date. 🙂
Same 🙂
Sac
I think it’s time we get a makeup thread rolling. I’m looking for a new eyeliner.
cofeefan
Reminds me of one of my dates. It was obvious (at least to me) that it just wasn’t gonna be a shidduch. By the time we got to the place I wanted to leave. He didn’t have a watch so about 2.5 hours in he asked me the time. I told him…he thinks for a second…and then asks, “So you wanna walk around a little?” I’m thinking “no way” but of course responded with “sure!”
lightitup
Yes, that’s how it’s used. Some people use chemistry as an excuse when there’s a different reason but don’t want to say.
Hair…makeup…getting dressed…for HALF AN HOUR?? No way!
I only saw the first day on youtube. Where can I watch the 2nd one?
ramateshkolian
Do you have a source that it’s assur?
popa
I think we should compile all your funny lines into one thread.
Obviously you get to know someone better if you spend 2 years with them vs 12 dates. But do you honestly think that you find out the same much on a 12th date vs a 5th?
smartcookie
“You WILL NOT know the boy/girl better if you date 12 times versus 5 times.”
That’s a joke, right?
aries2756
In no way does your post annoy me. Thank you for taking the time to respond. Obviously Hashem hasn’t told me who my bashert is. I am searching for him based on the qualities that I desire in a husband. Yes, height is an issue for me. There are MANY great short guys out there who lots of girls will be very lucky to get. However, it’s something that bothers me and I don’t see that changing any time soon.
I heard from a shadchan recently that the trend is dying down – due to the high number of broken engagements people are going our more often than before.
allsgr8
That’s such a good idea.
chayav inish livisumay
You can also look at it from a different perspective. What’s the point of going out if you know that height will remain an issue after the date?
I have the same question. Check Syms…they sometimes have.
Chanel Chance and Ralph Lauren Romance.

That scene is just too funny!!

I never believed that story until now 🙂
