    I'd end the date right then

    But chickfila on the other hand...... even in and out burger is better. But you should really go to Fuddruckers at the minimum.

    Fuddruckers is an automatic win.

    I'm hoping this there is some subtle innuendo in your message that I don't understand because I'm from another country.
    If so... hahaha (don't want to be the only one missing the joke!)

    If not...... I'm with the previous poster who says... LAST DATE! (if you could call going to McDonald's a date in the first place, I'd call it a punishment)

    Neither. Why on Earth would either place be a consideration?

    I knew a guy in high school who claimed to take dates to Burger King. Not after they were established as a couple, like fairly early in the process. The guy got married by 25, and isn't the point of dating women to find a long term relationship?

    Well, don't be such a big spender ...start with White Castle. Then work your way up to Arby's.....don't spoil her too soon because she'll expect it all the time.

    I looked all over for that Parks & Rec gif where she says "I wish I was at an Arby's because there's better food and cooler people" but I couldn't find it.

    I went to McDonald's three times on the day of prom last year. Lunch, dinner, and after prom. It wasn't my senior year so I didn't care. Arby's is yummier, McD's is cheaper I guess, except they just raised their priced. $1.29 for a McDouble? Preposterous.
  • Starbucks.

    Taco Bell, obviously...

    Exactly. Take her out for ethnic food. It'll maker her think you're sophisticated and worldly.

    Starbucks.

    Good idea. So why is Starbucks more acceptable than Arby's or McDonalds?

    Depends. Are you dating an 8-yr-old or a 65-yr-old?

  • My ex chose McDonalds for our first date. Relationship didn't end so well, I'd go for Arbys. You might have more luck.:drinker:

    Because you can bring your macbook and pretend to be creative while really just surfing youtube.

    I mean... because coffee has less calories and more expensive equals classier?

    Hmm... First date? So, no pressure, right? I think McD's or Arby's vary widely by location, so if you must pick one, pick the nicest looking, best run one in your neighborhood. I've seen some very nice looking McD's, but there are plenty of crummy ones as well...

    If you want a list of fast food joints to choose from, peruse ye olde Wiki list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fast_food_restaurants . This list should do in any weight loss plans for sure. The best places from this list, IMHO, are In-n-Out (fresh fast food), Popeye's (spicy tenders, or new naked tenders), Chick-fil-A (spicy chicken), Subway (diet friendly), and Taco Bell (diet friendly, if you try). That is my completely biased opinion. I'm sure others will have their favorite "evil fast food"! Culver's butterburgers and frozen custard are quite good, but I wouldn't eat them in the same sitting; they will blow an entire day of points, I'm sure. Dairy Queen "with the curl on top" is an evil, but yummy option that might be fun. There's also Steak-n-Shake; you can do OK there if you stick with the tiny burgers and skinny fries and stay away from the shakes.

    Honestly, fast food is only appropriate for a first date if it precedes or follows a movie or concert, or perhaps an "impromptu" first date "Hey, wanna go get McD's after BIO 201?".

    GOOD LUCK! If I liked a guy, I don't think it would matter. ; )

    Girls like sparkly things, and guys with confidence. Order for her, and get something wrapped in foil.

    Mcdonalds is disgusting and pathetic just saying crazy people go there..... and I'm not just saying that cause its unhealthy


    Then slap my *kitten* and call me Sybil, because I frucking love McDonalds. What is your basis of fact for the above statement?

    Arby's definitely the $1 Chocolate turnovers are to die for . . . on the other hand McDonald's has 3 cookies for $1 and you get variety . . . .

    Choices, choices . . .


    (I do believe not making that choice and getting it ALL got me to where I am)

    Make cookies and go to the park to walk around and chat. I think you'd have about a 75% success rate and it is cheaper than McDonalds.
