Good for you though to realize he's not wasting your time on. I'm a big believe on you know within minutes/hours if guy is worth this "second date" I keep hearing so much about.
Also, I
Lady Gaga as well. 0 -
Even if you don't like LG, it's cool. But the thing that mostly turned me off was his negativity. There were other comments he made such as he was boring (um ok), he talked about a guys jacket that came into the restaurant... To me, it should be fun and light. We will get to the negative crap later. Best foot forward in the beginning, I think.0

I understand the feeling behind saying 1,437 1st date.
But, first dates, no matter how unpleasant, are better than a bad marriage or bad LTR.
SO totally true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -

But hey at least he was himself, not parading himself around like he's something he's not. Better to find out now then 6 months down the line.0 -
1,438th is the charm!
ha ha yeah!
Sorry it didn't work out. On to the next!0 -
I totally agree that it was good of him to be himself. I guess imo, he could had beenore tactful about it.0

Was your lunch tasty at least? :laugh:0

Lol, lunch was good. We went to this nice Italian place and shared a pizza. He took the leftovers home though and didn't offer me any. Punk!
Do y'all take leftovers home on 1st date??0 -

I wouldn't take leftovers home on a first date. But i was one of the ones that wouldn't use a coupon .. lol. I think it falls under the same umbrella as the coupon. Just not something you do on a first date. I am famous for packing up the leftovers and then leaving them on the table ..lol.
But I guess if he paid for the meal .. he should get the leftovers.0 -
Yeah that's weird.. how much pizza was actually left?
If I was taking leftovers on a first date, I would definitely offer to split them.0 -
No to taking leftovers on the first date. That's more of a third date and later kind of thing.0
-
Don't take leftovers?! WTF why?? That's such a frivolous waste of food!
What kind of bad impression does that even leave? "I don't like to be wasteful" sounds way better than "UGH, I am ABOVE such poor person tendencies."

A question to some of the ladies on here.. is taking home leftovers on the first date worse than using a coupon? Would it be the ultimate turnoff if I did both?0

I usually don't eat on first dates, so this isn't an issue.
If I were eating a full meal, I'd offer her the leftovers.
Usually, when I eat, I finish the portion in front of me.
The leftovers is part of why it is a good idea not to introduce food (beyond appetizers) to a first date.0 -

Leftovers usually aren't an issue here... I eat all of my food... Pretty much every time.
Okay. Every time.0 -
I was actually thinking more of the female perspective. I've found it rare that the man doesn't clean his plate when we go out to eat! I wouldn't find it all that masculine for a guy to be carrying around half a piece of steak and some leftover mashed potatoes in a styrofoam container for the remainder of our date.0

Kit, totally agree with you on this!
Funny, I just remembered that I broke both "rules" on a 3rd date about a month ago ... we used a Groupon and got pizza. At the end, there was plenty left so we asked the server to split it and we each took home leftovers. There were other things that didn't interest me about him, but I really liked that that date was so go-with-the flow.0 -

Because most restaurants make parking so inconvenient that the car is no where near the entry/exit?
I think this is one of those things where people tend to way over think in this group. This is why first dates are so nerve racking. I think some of my most relaxed first dates were ones where I knew very soon I wasn't interested in a second date. I became much more relaxed because I didn't worry about every action/word being dissected and analyzed. I just said and did what I wanted to and didn't worry about the consequences. There is probably some country boy out there telling his friends that this girl was the type that she probably went online to discuss him taking leftovers home.0 -

Because I live in the city, so 99% of the time we get around via taxi or walking on dates. My view might be different if I lived in the suburbs and I was meeting a guy at a restaurant for a first date and his car was parked right outside.Funny, I just remembered that I broke both "rules" on a 3rd date about a month ago ... we used a Groupon and got pizza.

I think leftovers are fine on date 3. Just not date 1.0
