Guidelines for a date

[Vincent]

Well when i go out on dates i find out about the person i'm dating, as we all should.

To start, Athletic ability.
I like to do things that take some athletic ability, ice skating or mini golf, and i use this as one requirement. I don't care how attractive they are, if they don't do anything athletic then i don't care about them.

The second thing is intelligence.
This is not a big thing for me, but i want at least someone who can possibly carry a conversation for more than 2 minutes, tough i know.

Thirdly, life experiences.
This can be a factor of how they were raised, but you can change who you are. If they have almost no life experiences, and hang around with the same one or two people, they turn me off quiet a bit.

Fourth, What is there family like?
Is she an only child, one of several children, a few siblings, etc. These things can deeply affect the person, whether it makes them spoiled or makes them giving and good with kids. These are always good traits to find out.

Finally, Attractiveness.
Now even though this is the original thing that gets me to someone, it is also the last because, frankly, it does not matter all that much to me. It is always nice to have someone attractive to poke at night, but if you hate the person behind the beauty then its all worthless.

These are my guidelines for a date, Most of them can be changed to your own desires or wants, when you date someone you begin to understand what things you really want.

i am missing the point here...

athletic ability is nice but you going to miss out on plenty of great girls, jus b/c they dont run track or play b-ball?

oh, and mini-golf does not show athletic ability...its a question if real golf shows athletic ability

great, you dont care about intelligece, lets see how long youll be satisfied when you run out of things to talk about after date 2.

ahhh somethin we can agree upon... i hate those girls that have a lack of soical ties, it really says a lot about them.

but life experience? how much do you want a teenage girl to have?-most havent had the opportunity to travel the world or climb a mountain

family life? you really cannot tell what a person is like based on their fam, i hope you arent implying that only children are selfish or that a girl with two siblings are normal, this is more along the lines of looking into a wife

you must not get a lot of dates if you follow these requirments

sorry im just in that burn/harsh mood but i think you may want to re-think your priorites

you failed to mention if it matters how NICE a girl is. how caring and responsible they are, these things are important charecter traits of finding a good chick

Mini-golf is not very athletic i know, but its a shame when a chick can not even hit a ball strait.

Conversations are not always based upon intelligence unless your talking about politics, I mean a chick that is not some retard that can use words that have more than 1 syllabal.

Life experiences are things like hobbies, people skills, doing things, going on vacations, small things that can make good topics of discussions, i don't exactly know where you got traveling the world or mountain climbing, but someone you did.

I seriously think your over-analyzing things. Sorry i didn't go through the whole personality checklist, niceness, generosity, but its kind of hard to tell these things from a person unless they donate food to a homeless person, or sign a petition for a tree-hugger group or something. Seriously dude you make bad points.

Perhaps i should have clarified more along the lines of first dates. But seriously man, i have no idea where you got some of your reactions, Mountain Climbing?!

sorry i did come off a bit harsh, but i still feel that you are holding yourself back, with some of these charecter traits.

yea its nice if a girl is athletic but it isnt a big deal unless you exspect your whole relationship to revolve around a pickup b-ball game.

most conversations are based upon intelligence or the lack there of. Politics doesnt neccasarily decide that. Many ppl belive in what they read in the paper or what their parents beliefs are. some ppl will pick a party depending on 1 issue.

i see now what you mean about life experience, i have met to many girls that their hobbies consist of: hanging out with friends, talking on the phone, shopping, and...getting drunk. Thats it

the thing is i really think that the way you decide on girls just doesnt make sense but keep doin what you want, it your life
