View Full Version : How often do you go out on dates??
Brad Russ 12-09-2006, 06:55 PM On average, I'd say I probably go out on about 2 dates a month. I was with a few of those online dating websites for a couple years, and that's where I got the majority of my dates, as well as where I met my last girlfriend, but I recently took my name off those sites, and so my dating life will likely become even less active over the next few months. When I have a girlfriend, I probably go out on about one or two dates a week. How about all of you, how often do you date?? This question is for singles, as well as married people.

I can understand that. Dates can be fun and everything, but they sure do take a toll on your wallet. When I first broke up with my girlfriend, I was totally inconsolable, but then when the month went by, and I saw how much extra money I had in my wallet, that definitely helped to soften the blow. :lol: That's one of the benefits of just dating, as opposed to having a girlfriend. When you're just dating, you and the girl usually split the bill 50/50, while when you have a girlfriend, you always have to pay. Despite that though, I still prefer having a girlfriend to casual dating. The good feelings I get when I have a girlfriend, far outweigh not having much money in my view.
tdf4077 12-09-2006, 07:36 PM I dont really know what a date is.
I'm with you....
I'm kinda married, and we haven't gone on a date in about 2 years, but the marriage is only for a little while later (perhaps the lack of dates is the problem lol), so I'm thinking my dating will become even less if that's possible :)

yeah i have this kind of girlfriend that i've been with for like 2 years..we hang out and go places but i dont think its like going out on a date? dating makes me think of meeting someone new and asking them to go to the movies or dinner.
jpcanes 12-09-2006, 08:00 PM I have a girlfriend. Her name is The Internet.
We are together nearly everyday and we travel around the world a lot!
She is very inexpensive. ;)

People and their damn monogamy ways.
I've always wanted an excuse to use this word and it finally came up

That's where I would draw the line. If I went on a date and the girl expected me to pay completely, I'd tell her that isn't fair and if she expected me to pay, I'd say "Ok, well if that's the case, you won't be going on any more dates with me." and I'd leave and make her pay. :lol:
But in all honesty, I think whoever asks the other person on the date should pay. If the girl asks the guy to go with her to eat, it implies her saying "Would you like me to take you out to eat?" which means she should offer to pay. Same thing if its a guy who asks the girl on a date. It's not fair to expect the guy or girl to pay every time, and I wouldn't allow that treatment.

I know what I mean-lol If you are expected to keep paying you should be atleast be getting some touch feels-lol

The women Iv'e gone out with usually have offered me a little action, or as you put it, some touch feels. LOL!! I rarely accept it though. I find that "touch feels" are far more exciting when you wait. Builds up the anticipation. ;)

I completely agree with you. I don't ask random people out right away. I had a err... "girlfriend" up until a few weeks ago and like you said, we just hung out and went places, and I guess they were dates but not like a 'date, date'.
TVFactFan 12-09-2006, 10:17 PM a massage with a happy ending?
Possibly-lol

:rotflmao:
"touch feels"...def. gotta use that phrase more often!
PZelda 12-09-2006, 10:35 PM I go out on the occasional outing... I wouldn't call it a date, though. It's just us hanging out and whatnot.
I prefer to have someone of the opposite sex come over to my house the first time, or vice versa. ;)
Studio 60 12-09-2006, 10:36 PM im going on one tomorrow.
"I prefer to have someone of the opposite sex come over to my house the first time, or vice versa."
yeah thats what i did when we first stared "dating"
but he kinda called it a date, i didnt call it anything.
*Pleasant Tomorrow* 12-09-2006, 11:36 PM Um. Zero?
Amen, sister :mrtarver:
Czas na Zywiec 12-10-2006, 12:56 AM if you call a date going out for dinner and a movie then none. if you call it going out drinking and just hanging out, then plenty. i think the old dinner and a movie standard is lame and outdated. sure, once you get serious fancy dinners are nice, but im not going to be throwing cash on someone i'll probably never see again.

Cathy, I thought that you were seeing someone? :confused:
Nighthawk76 12-10-2006, 02:23 PM I have had my share of dates, but not any over the last two years. I need to really get back to dating though since I am 30 now and would like to have a family someday.
dawsongirl 12-10-2006, 02:39 PM Cathy, I thought that you were seeing someone? :confused:
I am. But we don't really go out on "dates."
¤I Love Clay Aiken¤ 12-10-2006, 04:22 PM Amen, sister :mrtarver:
Theres a guy I like and we hang out one on one and such and everyone at work thinks we're together and dating.. evidently its a big rumor at work, but its NOT true!
Brad Russ 12-10-2006, 07:44 PM I wouldn't know. :(
Don't feel too bad Jen. I didn't go out on my first date until a little over a year ago. Some of us are just late bloomers, and there's nothing wrong with that. :)
D-Dey 12-10-2006, 07:58 PM The question is - what is considered a date?
A game of 20 questions where if you get enough of the answers right, you get to spend one night with a member of the opposite sex. The more answers you get right, the more of your life you get to spend with him or her.
That's one of the reasons I don't do it. I know that rejection is guaranteed before I even try.
MsOrange 12-10-2006, 09:25 PM me and Jonathan go out every Friday night, sometimes more, if you consider that a date, then I guess i date alot??

Closer than I am lol
~LadyJess~ 12-10-2006, 11:29 PM If you qualify a date as going out to dinner and/or a movie, Anthony and I go out on about 2 dates a month. For the most part we are fine with just hanging out at one of our houses. That and we are both broke college students.

Sharop 12-11-2006, 06:19 PM I haven't had a boyfriend since I was 15.
So my dating life is pretty non-existent.
dragster58 12-11-2006, 07:53 PM You must have a NICE SALARY-lol
Well, I did get a pay rise last year actually!!! That's not the point though:rolleyes: ! It's just that Italian chix like to play around more too now.....it's not all mandolins, poets and family over here anymore.....wwwwwwwwwwooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! Me get married? Never again, heheheheheh!!!!:cool: :lol: :lol: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:
Sharop 12-12-2006, 08:06 AM Nah, no worries, you are still young; and also, I find that hard to believe that you do not have a boyfriend!??!; you are a doll:)
Thanks. :) That's really nice of you. :) But offline, I'm quite shy, and I don't really go out much. I think some people tend to find me a bit standoffish and boring. Either that, or if I'm talking animatedly about my beliefs in astral projection and alternate realities, they usually think I'm crazy.
