so my first date w/ this hb involves a two-way 25-30 min ferry ride.

i am worried about filling the time, and in need of games/conversatios routines/etc to fill chunks of time.

is it stupid to bring a deck of cards/uno along, or is that a good idea?


other ideas?

Uno could work, if you really like playing uno and you can do it in silly and fun way, but if you're just doing it to kill time she will sense it and it may give her the impression that you are too boring to keep her entertained.

I think routines and games may entertain them and attract them, but at some point there is nothing better than small talk. I know a lot of guys who can attract women but can never keep them because they are so fake around women most of the time. Try to forget about the pressure of the date and just learn to enjoy it. Enjoy finding out more about what makes this hb tick. Don't go Afc and be someone who likes to talk naturally about things he cares about and listen to things that are important to others, and she won't be bored. But be curious, almost as if you are testing her to see if she is worthy. If your not nervous, you will be able to talk for hours and breeze right through the ferry ride and the comfort building stage.

just be fun. i like making up random crap. she'll obviously ask you the basic questions like where did you grow up, where you're from, what you do etc... so "i'm was born in the arctic, my parents are eskimos", "i now live in a boathouse in the sahara desert", "i'm studying rocket science. i got a bursary from zimbabwe's secret space program" (one girl actually believed that i was studying rocket science - excellent time to tease the crap out of her)

fun, playful and most importantly - you're different from every other guy she's met.

check out the routines section for some stuff to fall back on. 5 lies game, the cube etc are all pretty good.

You're worried about filling in half an hour? Fill it in with sexy conversation and kino escalation.

I'd say bringing a deck of cards is a terrible idea. Not only are you going to demonstrate "I'm not interesting enough to fill in half an hour with conversation," you're going to make her brain switch from emotional mode to logical mode. Bad bad bad.

Use conversation to find out what she's all about so you can screen her for qualities that you look for in a woman. Also, talk about things that you're passionate about so she has the opportunity to see what you're all about.

worth mentioning, we already know each other really well. thanks for the feedback though.

Dates are nerve racking especially first dates! I would just ask fun questions and give feedback and responses....remeber this phrase for the rest of your life because it comes in handy! " its not what's said its whats heard".

If you come of relaxed then she will feel rellaxed around you....If you ar up tight then she will be up tight. If thers a weird silence just dont let it be weird....remeber you dont care what she thinks of you! just do your thing, be your self, and be alpha.
