I'm just confused. During the early stages of gaming, we're supposed to do the unexpected things to set us apart from the "usual" guys, right? But when it's her birthday, and the HB knows you know it's her birthday, isn't this the "expected" in this case?

Take her out and show her a good time. Don't do the same old boring dinner and movie routine. Do something fun, spontaneous.

I remember one time I took a girl out on her birthday, and I told her "I know this is your special day, but I want to bring you somewhere very special to me", and I took her to the library. LOL! Totally shocked her, but she was much more than cool with it. We spent time looking at books, and at one time in the day we ventured off to the childrens books where we looked at all the sex education books focused towards children, and that was a great time. Then while we were looking around the kids books a school field trip or something stopped by with there must have been 30 or 40 kids, and I asked the teacher and teachers aids what they were planning for the kids trip, and they told me they were going to spend the entire day reading stories out loud to the kids. And I persuaded the teacher to let Eva and I read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom to them.

At the end of the date she told me she never had so much fun at the library.

Wow @ that library. Lol. That IS unexpected.

Anyways, so ok I'm pushing through with the going out on her birthday thing(well not exactly, it'll be a day after her birthday)

But when I asked the girl, it went something like this:

me: hey are you free on sunday?
hb: hmmm why?
me: coz i wanna take you out
hb: ohhh *slight giggle* i'm not sure if i'll be free, i'll find out on saturday

I have a feeling i did a mistake here. But I am not sure. Can anyone spot a smudge?

Never say "I wanna take you out".

Be more demanding than that. I suggest saying "I'm taking you out..."

It makes you sound more convincing, and women like having little to no control over things like what to do.
