Bella you said you are not taking points off the guy for taking you to the chain resturant yet here you are complaining about him not taking you to a local place. Okay something has to give for some of you not”so young” but young minded folks in 2008.

Now as for food places I love several local resturants-I had lunch at Six Feet Under for the first time this weekend. It was good. Nice size portions and I would recommend it for a date.

Oh yeah..Good Morning All.

Bella Question for you. So what would have your reaction been had he taken you to some mom & pop local place where the service/food ended up being bad??? Then you would’ve judged him on picking that spot just the same as you complaining about the Chainrestaurant. I’m not sure how the conversation went when you and him planned to meet up..but maybe if you stressed during the conversation that you like to try new places because ATL has so many to offer yadda yadda yadda…things could’ve been different.

Dr. Kym does have a point. Sounds like the guy wasn’t that interesting for you to focus on something so minor as the spot yall went to. It was just the first date. My suggestion would be to invite him to some new local spot for date #2 and flip da skrip. Try to do a lil impressing on your own. That would be the best way to set an example for him to UP his game on date #3 if it so happens to go that far.

Women We need to learn to stop picking everything apart. Lighten up, chill out, enjoy the moment, and have a darn good time.

hello good people

im with the Doc on this one, Belle. sounds like you are complaining, almost like you tryin find something to wrong with the ‘nice evening’. in the man’s defense, he may have choosen a chainrestaurant so there’s no surprises… he knew what to expect of the food, the atmosphere and had you tripped, he knew the exits (if he made a quick dash to the bathroom and jumped through a window for escape, he knew he wasnt gonna hit no brick wall)

WOW, sorry but you sound shallow. So what it’s a chain restaurant. That thought would never have entered in my mind. But as you say, you eat out a lot. You went on a date, he didn’t take you to McDonald’s or Burger King.

BTW, yes you are taking off points because “it stuck in your crawl” that he took you to a chain restaurant.

(Shaking my head). I’m not understanding the problem. The point is that he took you out to a sit down dinner for a first date. You had good food, convo and company, didn’t you?

He could’ve pulled up to the local Checkers and asked you what # combo you wanted. Then, let you know you were going dutch at the window…Which scenario do you prefer??

Good morning blogsville and welcome back to the work world.

WOW, has dating gotten this fugged up.

Bella the guy was probablly just trying to break bread with you, not lock you into forever and ever. I can’t believe you’d think something like that. Says alot about your thought processs. With the right person you can drive thru McD’s and wind up having a great time. Apparently he wasn’t the right guy. I’m glad he didn’t splurge for some upscale restaurant to an ungrateful woman. I hope you get all you deserve.

Outside of Pappageaux’s (which i’ve stated I’m addicted to) there is Maggiano’ (chain italian), Chequers, Mortons, and a place that closed down called Eatsy’s or was it Itsy’s? Great for a chick that doesn’t mind something a little different. Anyone ever ate there?

I’m fortunate now in that alot of the women I know love to cook. My sister, neighbors, friends, my ex gf ( ate New Years dinner over there). I love to sit down and eat food prepared especially for me.

Good MORNING all!

I think that’s a bit picky. If you have a better suggestion..then you should recommend it. Maybe he doesn’t know…so give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he honestly thought he may have impressed you…After reading this I am sure his firecracker fizzled (insert…handicapped kid from WATERBOY here…w/ fizzled firecracker)

But as far as a good place…the smaller joints to me are the most initimate ones to go to. It depends on the type of person you are with. What they are into? I am personally a fan of any Tapas bar. Small initmate ambience. Two Urban Licks nice joint. Hell, the HARLEM bar is my ALL time favorite.

On a higher scale, The Sundial is quite impressive, Oceanaire, Mortons… Those are really nice restaurants…

Places not to go to would be….I guess the BLUE FLAME, Golden Corral or even anywhere that offers “Would you like fries with that?” or that offers coupons that you can redeem at the end of the date! lol!

Tapas bars are a usually nice place…decently priced and a great scenery

If you are happy with eating regular food, good for you. Some people happen to have a palate that prefers something unique, different. It doesn’t make you a snob or picky.

Good Morning, all & Happy New Year…

No offense, but it sounds like you did take off points. I mean, if you had a good time, shouldn’t that matter more than whether it was a chain restaurant.

A chain restaurant is a little bit of a safe pick because it is familiar. Maybe this is why he chose it. Did you have any input or did he make all of the plans?

As for local restaurants my wife love for dinners are as follows: Repast, 2 urban licks (gotta try Lamb lollipops…2 urban licks was also featured on Rachel Ray’s show $20 a day for Atlanta, GA. We’e actually tried both locations of Six feet Under and both a pretty good (the original is better, though).

Good morning and happy Monday all.

I try to not over think things on dates, like Bella seems to be doing in this instance. I’d rather focus on having a good time.

That being said, if he’s chosing the restaurant, if I care about it being a chain (which I don’t) I’d speak up before meeting up. But usually the guy will ask me for my feedback and we’ll go from there. I love Mexican food and one of the last dates I went on, he researched Mexican restaurants and came up with a winner I had never had before. Now I want to eat there once a week. He scored major points for that one!

No Gina you are a silly airhead because you made a jacked off comment about me so I returned the favor. If your taste are to unique for the regular chain resturants then that should be stated to your date on day one and a suggestion should be made. If he asked her out and he is paying then she needs to bring novocain or order a salad so she can suffer through the meal with her unique tastebuds. Otherwise she needs to pull out her wallet and say how about I take you to one of my favorite spots. Just because you are a foodie doesnt mean everyone is. Suggestion if this is that important to you then might I suggest you date someone who is like minded in tastebuds that way you are on the same page. Unique tastebuds my a*..it is all coming out the exact same way.

Morning Folks!!!

I have to agree with the others on the way this topic was presented. Bella you do sound a little shallow, but I’m sure you were just looking for an interesting lead-in to the real topic at hand. So I won’t subtract any points for this LOL.

For me, the company not the locale makes the date. The actual planned date can be a disaster, but if the guy and I had fun getting through that disaster - that would be a great date for me.

Dr. Kym - Six Feet Under is one of my favorite places, I make sure to go there every time I make it to the A. I also make sure I get in breakfast at Thumb’s Up (usually the one in East Point). I had dinner at Harlem Bar on NYE and that’s another of my faves in Atlanta. Casa Grande is my favorite Mexican restaurant. I could go on and on because I love to eat.

I did go on one first date here in Houston where the food was GREAT!!! I later determined that it was the food that hooked me, not the man. The second time I went to that restaurant (with some friends) I left with the same ‘I think I’m falling in love’ feeling that I did the first time…

If he paid then you eat where his wallet goes..if you paid then you can pick the local hot spot for grub. If you go dutch then you make a mutal agreement on a place that suits both of you…. Just because a guy ask you out doesnt mean he has to impress you. Impression works both ways..and I think the quicker some of us women folks get that the happier some of us will be. - Kym- will you marry me? Ok, maybe just meet me @ Applebees for lunch! See the hard thing about being a guy is most of the things listed above. Then add to the fact that you do your research and brainstorm for hours to come up with an original new& trendy spot and SHE DOES NOT LIKE IT!. This happens quite often you ask her : What are you in the mood for? What kind of foods? she says: I can eat just about anything, I’m open You then take her to Chopstix decent lil spot then she frowns at the table an says: I DONT LIKE CHINESE FOOD!!! ;-(

All I’m saying is that I noticed the difference in what we thought might be ideal for a date.

It’d be the same as if he took me to do something I wasn’t interested in. Say…field hockey or something. I’m just not into it. That doesn’t mean that we can’t have chemistry.

Bella - I have dealt with a date with allergens. I dated a female (when I was single, of course) that was allergic to corn!!! That ruled out a lot of mexican since corn is a major staple for that food. She did mention that prior to our first date (which I thought may have been important). Luckily, I chose a chain spot that had a lot of variety.

On topic: I am still learning about a lot of Atlanta’s hidden treasures. I dont think I would have read so much into the place and whether it was a chain or not as I would have if we enjoyed each other’s company.

Lady J You are right about the drinks at the V. Ave location. There has NEVER been a time i left that place sober. LOL! Patron, long island ice teas…delicioso!

Staceye You know I was sitting over here wondering what the madeover Starship would be like. It would definitely have to have a ‘special video camera system’. You know how you walk in and see yourself on the Security Video? Well it would automatically show your face imposed into the latest adult movie. LOL! There would also be a tray of new warm doohickeys (sort of like a bottle warmer) to try out in the ergonomically correct dressing room for your testing pleasure. I think there would also be an arts-n-crafts area where you can have your own member or area made into a toy…for a slight additional fee of course. Cuz I know for sho i’m not the only chick that’s ever wondered how her CT would look made into a top notch silicone/latex toy!

I actually agree with Bella’s line of thinking. The money part of it really isn’t an issue - obviously, he took her somewhere and paid for the date. That was gracious of him.

However, to some folks going to a chain restaurant may look a little uncreative on a first date. Doesn’t mean either person is right or wrong, it just shows what their interest and likes are. I’m now married and it doesn’t really matter. However, if someone took me to Carraba’s or Macaroni Grill for a first date then it would definitely come off like we have somewhat different interests.

…and as far as budget friendly dates, keeping it simple, breaking bread is concerned. Let me be the next to say…the impression should not be the atmoshpere but how compatible you are with your date. Go dutch, pick a place you’d both be comfortable with & you’re comfortable. It should not be my place or yours not on first meet/date. IMO

Good Morning Everyone

I always try to get some feedback when going on a first date. If I know you’re a “foodie”, then I’ll prepare accordingly. Without that knowledge, I’d pick the safe spot too.

Atlanta does have lots of good food though. Capital Grille on Paces Ferry has lots of ambiance, and the food is not bad. There are a couple of good Brazilian churrascarias that I like. I’ve also found a some good Thai, Ethiopian, and Indian spots. Island Cafe on memorial is always good for Carribean. I have to admit that, after living in Cali and Texas, it’s been really hard to find good mexican. Any suggestions?

Beautiful I recall going on a date to the Center of Puppetry Arts once. Yeah its a little elementary but we had soooo much fun in there. It was nice to just not take life so seriously for a change with all that, Why did your last relationship end? How many kids n shyt do you want? blah blah blah mumbo jumbo.

Go rollerskating, iceskating, bike riding….maybe the problem is everyone wanting to ball out of control. I think it’s time to get back to the basics. Keep it simple every now and then. I challenge you all. Just imagine how freeing it can be to take a step back into the light heartedness of being a kid again.

IF a dude take you to Mickey D’s, dare him to jump in the balls at the play area or something. HOWEVER, you might want to make that the last thing you do before dipping out into a running vehicle, screetching the tires out the parking lot before the Po Po shows up. lmao!!!!!

1) I cooked baked cornish hen with apple/marsala wine sauce, baked sweet potato sprinkled with brown sugar and cinnamon, and grilled zucchini, served with a german Trochen Beren Auslese wine. Topped it off with good conversation.

2) Rented a movie we both hadn’t seen but wanted to.

3) Kicked it.

Blow Me these wild mood swings are scaring the shyt out of me. I’m not a sexist pig. I’ve eaten at most of the good restaurants out there but prefer going to my sisters house to eat. Better food and great company. Excuse me for being over the hype.

I’m going to find you a good therapist to deal with those emotional swings. That cant be good for you. LOL

Mysterious a great home cooked meal is a far better date and you can learn more from that date than you ever could going out to eat, although that can be fun too.

I remember me and my ex wife were on Buford highway and hungry and she had like $2 and I had $3. We drove thru McD’s and bought food and shared it while sitting in the car and laughing our azzes off. Thats when it was ok to just be together, before the restaurant you chose decided how much you were willing to pay for some puddy.

I’m not out on the town like that going out for dinners and the such.

So I’ma take notes, and add that to the list (frugality). I’m trying to retire @ 50 (no later than 55) so I can’t see spending gwap like that on restaurants, when I can make it at home.

Staceye Cats do tend to mess up a good thing, but I like to think of it another way. I’m a guy who f*cks up bad things for wack cats. And you don’t have to worry about me having “slippery/wandering hands”. If you eat my cooking you’ll be the one with the slippery/wandering hands.

Staceye, the guys u dated in the past were not suave and smooth.Just my read.If u met one, u would be inviting them home 4 dinner every Friday evenig, making sure no other gal gets to him.An invite to a girl’s hme requires a good closer.And not all men can do that.

I think I’ma start citing a prexisting condition in an intial conversation with a woman, put in my warning early in the game so I stop gettting so PO’d later.

The condition is this:

“I…do not…want…to ..have sex…with….you…[at least not yet]. Yes, you are an attractive woman (that is why I sought to speak to you). Just know that unless you offer, I will not ask for s..e..x….”

Maybe then they’ll understand me saying, I’ll pick something up on the way home and 30-minute-meal it, instead of going out.

Honestly, if a man takes the trouble to plan a date, I don’t tell him what to do. If he asks me, that’s one thing. But if he’s got a table reserved and an itinerary for the night and doesn’t ask me, I keep my mouth shut and a smile on my face!

Truth: Yea, I know I owe you a trip out here. Sorry it took so long. These gas prices have been a little off the chain.

Slim: I can see the sign up there at the next exit. I can taste it already.

Truth pulls into the parking lot and slowly cruise to the back before coming back to the front. Slim now a little confused as he has past several good spots. Next thing you know Truth is exiting the parking lot

Slim: Hey, where are you going? Why are you leaving?

Truth: oh, I said i owe you a trip out there. I never said anything about actually EATing anything. So how bout some pizza back at my crib. I think Pizza Hut still has that 3 for 5 one topping joints.

And I’ll never give myself to another the way I gave it to you You don’t even recognize the ways you hurt me, do you? It’s gonna take a miracle to bring me back And you’re the one to blame And now I feel like….oh!

You’re the reason why I’m thinking I don’t wanna smoke all these cigarettes no more I guess that’s what I get for wishful thinking Should’ve never let you enter my door

Next time you wanna go on and leave I should just let you go on and do it ‘Cause now I’m using like I bleed

It’s like I checked into rehab And baby, you’re my disease It’s like I checked into rehab And baby, you’re my disease I gotta check into rehab ‘Cause baby you’re my disease I gotta check into rehab ‘Cause baby you’re my disease

Damn, ain’t it crazy when you’re love swept You’d do anything for the one you love ‘Cause anytime that you needed me I’d be there It’s like you were my favorite drug The only problem is that you was using me In a different way than I was using you But now that I know it’s not meant to be I gotta go, I gotta wean myself off of you

And I’ll never give myself to another the way I gave it to you You don’t even recognize the ways you hurt me, do you? It’s gonna take a miracle to bring me back And you’re the one to blame ‘Cause now I feel like….oh!

Bella girl glad to know you enjoyed the date hopefully, you will suggesst something to your likings the next go round….(Long as you paying). Nothing wrong with being an analytical thinker, but you come off a bit shallow sounding..no offense to you.

As for the dating topic. As long as the date is fun and interesting then I’m all game. Life is too short to be trippin over choice of restaurant. I look for compatibility, conversation flow, sense of humpor…etc. First dates are my opportunities to learn as much about the individual while I have a chance.

@ Staceye- girls sounds like that dude should’ve kept his hands in his pockets. I’m with you don’t be tryin to feel a sista up, that’s just disrepectful. Might have to pull a Uma Thurman Kill Bill can of whoop azz out on you!

At your age your still marketing booty, but thats not gonna last much longer. REal soon your skills, or lack thereof, will become obvious to all.

Dan don’t shoot her a disclaimer. I want a woman to know that I want that azz. If her actions say anything other than thats a possibilty then lets terminate this program right now. A disclaimer lets her off the hook. She doesn’t shoot you one saying she doesn’t plan on draining you while you guys date, does she?

Demi, you are a nut and you know in which way I mean.

Staceye talking about guys messing things up. About a month ago, I stopped over “supposedly” a friend’s house on my way home. We had a glass of wine together in the living room. He kept dimming the lights and I would turn them on. The second time he did I insisted that he leave the freaking lights alone. Right after that I went to use the restroom and on my way out he has two glasses and a bottle of wine in his hand. I asked where he was going and he said to his bedroom because he wanted to get comfortable. Told him I had no intention of having a conversation in his bedroom. Got my coat and left. He calls me and wonders why I left in such a hurry and why I had an attitude. Point blank told him it was insulting to be invited in his room when it was my first time in his place and for him to think I would actually carry on a conversation on his bed with wine was ridiculous. He told me I was stuck up and I said fine with me. I’m stuck up and respectful to ME!

Lady J I only live once …and my paycheck comes once every couple of weeks. Say you go on 5 dates a month and you went Pappadeaux each time, that would be close to $500 a month (even @ 3, it’ll be $300). A guy doesn’t want to throw that stream of money at mere prospects. And don’t go with the “women” pay junk; if you don’t pay, they’ll say they are cheap - a true no win.

Das dating is like walking thru fog. You see everything and nothing at the same time. Then, the fog breaks and you see this one woman and your mind, body, and soul come together and let you know you have to have her. Its not about sex, or her favorite resaurant, or her dress, its just about her. Nothing else will do. Thats the one you send the walkie talkie to. If your gonna drop some loot for a woman drop it for her. The thing is if she feels the same way she doesn’t care where you take her.

About the movie. I thought it was hilarious but it potrays guys as unsure cowards. Still funny as hell. The cool part was taking her to the island on the jetski’s and showing her grandfathers name.

Not realizing how much he went thru trying to get to know her! There’s Way more attitude dealing with sista’s in realife, in terms of approaching them (they’re ALL I deal with so I consider myself an expert) so I would have left my number with her as a “just in case”, written on a napkin, no biz card cuz that gets a funny look too.

DasV this is a long story made short; But i have put myself out there a lil but i did not break a lot of bread :). just wanted to tell a brotha in a not so subtle way that i really enjoyed our companionship. Years ago (i dated a barber we were in our early 20’s), neither of us had gone past the “only dating/keeping it simple” stage. But after he having a heart 2 heart with me i decided to initiate a lil bit more romantic move. Sooo i left roses (guys not a paticular color) in his barber chair and a popular book i’d bought for him. The other guys in the shop defintley made it easy for me cause i was most definitely nervous!!! But after being made to know by his neighbor barbers friend in the shop that he was digging me in that same regard I felt elated to do it! In returned there were several more occasions where he put his self out there towards me…those were the days…

I once had a guy say that he only likes to eat at Golden Corral since it is consistent. That is sad. We ended up going to Wolfgang Puck’s. He pouted the whole evening because the bread wasn’t right. He complained so much the mgmt offered free dessert. Lame. I never went out with him again. ATTENTION MEN: Read Atlanta Magazine to learn about good, unique non-chain restaurants.

Bella You seem to have started from the premise that all women really want love, and marriage, yada, yada, yada. Well maybe some day. But right now, I don’t need that commitment. Right now, if I want something stiff (not a drink), then I go get some. This doesn’t make me unnatural, or a prostitute, in any sense of the word. You say that you’re not passing judgement, but when you use words like that (‘prostitute’), how exactly do you expect people to react?

And I have no problem with keeping feelings separate. If I’m having a booty call, there’s only feeling I’m interested in.

Can I get a ‘AMEN’?

Sexyleggs girl you should have walked over calmly like you were interested in the boudoir wine and chat…smiled..then threw the wine in his face. then left! LOL But keep that glass in hand just in case you had to break in case of an emergency and use it on him! LOL

900 it’s ok for him to be attracted to me…that does not give him the right to touch me. I expect him to be a grown azz man and practice some self control.

Similac true emotions are never out of place. If you see someone that just makes your heart warm let them know that. I’ll always tell a chick that I’m feeling whats going on. Even if it doesn’t work out she’ll always appreciate the thought. Showing emotions doesn’t make you more or less a person. Needlessly showing emotions does.

**And I have no problem with keeping feelings separate. If I’m having a booty call, there’s only feeling I’m interested in.

Can I get a ‘AMEN’?** Dam amen, can I get some Amina? LOL

SexyLeggsThat’s the sentiment that the mother-in-law had. She got divorced in 1988. She raised her kids. The last child is now graduating college.

Then she met someone and she actually got married again last month. December weddings in Buffalo, New York are snowy & cold. She is 65 years old and is a newlywed again. Married again.

Oddly enough, I think my wife was worried about her being lonely when he youngest brother went away to college. It appears that her mom went on with life and found a new relationship.

theTRUTH yous flip it like none-other on this blog. im propped face in hands reading your post … dating is like walking thru fog. You see everything and nothing at the same time. Then, the fog breaks and you see this one woman and your mind, body, and soul come together and let you know you have to have her. Its not about sex, or her favorite resaurant, or her dress, its just about her. Nothing else will do. Thats the one you send the walkie talkie to. If your gonna drop some loot for a woman drop it for her. The thing is if she feels the same way she doesn’t care where you take her.

and then you threw in some advice about using crystal-lite for more water intake… you kill meh with your versatility. cheesing

oh, and since you donning the monk-wear thing… imma have to sew up me a fly burka using some cloth imported from india, that with my african neck brace and hooped earrings and two sticks of incense with a bowl of rose petals, im ready to walk 3 paces ahead of you chanting for peace as i go….

Okay, granted, I’m slightly concieted.

But not enough to think that everytime a woman gives me a compliment, she wants to sleep with me. (Half the time, I’m so clueless the women end up getting mad at me for not noticing).

So, Stace:

That move is as old as the yawn-and- hug, so you might wanna start looking at the dudes you choosing.

If I want to touch you or initiate intimate contact, it beings so slightly, so subconciously that you’re not even realizing that it’s happening. But there has to be the openness in the woman for it to be done.

I’d get into how, but you’ll have to wait for the book. But for a Paypal payment of $19.99 you can get the how-to outline!
