So what defines a "real date" exactly?

The guy asks a girl to go somewhere with him, and he pays for everything.

The girl asks the guy to take her somewhere and makes him pay for it all.
1 (8.3%)
A guy gets his friend to ask a girl to meet them at a conference, and go out to eat afterward.
2 (16.7%)
Anything that involves gazing at the stars

The drier the better.  If they resemble a prune, that's a good sign.
4 (33.3%)
When a girl wears a guy down until he finally says, "okay; fine.  Let's go somewhere"
2 (16.7%)
An "in person" meeting where the guy pays for everything and buys flowers and rents a limo.
6 (50%)
When the girl wears a white dress and the guy wears a tux and people throw things at them and mess up their car so they have to run away to live happily ever after.  :-D

The guy should show up on the girls doorstep at least for the FIRST date.

Then ~ together ~ you write your own rules.

Yeah.

BOL :laughhard: Good 1 :great:
Television is proof the people will look at anything rather than eachother

Life would be so much easier without hormones

Of all God's creations, humans are the only ones with enough imagination to be bored

Humans are fallible, and they unreasonably expect everyone else not to be
