how old were these guys and how old are u? so how did u arrange it- i'll meet ya there or do u catch the bus together.
i don;t now it could be second class if u ask a gal out and ur like ok i'll meet ya at the range theatre on granville st outside at 4pm for the matinee. maybe they would thinking ok what time would this guy be picking me up and all the old fashion stuff ya now, but ahhh sorry this guy does not have a car
i don't think it would work for old fashioned type of girl.
Lots of people don't have cars...they live in the city where public transportation is cheap and parking is expensive or alternatively they prefer to spend their money on other things. like vacations etc, etc.
I'm n my 20's and I've dated guys without cars before (some in their 30's) and honestly I never thought of not having a car as one of those detestable qualities in a man...I'm looking for more important things.
As for first dates I always prefer to meet a guy someplace as then I wasn't letting a total strange know where I live...
depends who you ask..i've date guys with cars and guys without..dues with cars are cool cuz it's more convieninet but..but a guy with a car is not really what i care most about in a guy!!
Hey joel... I'm a fellow Vancouverite, so here's a suggestion: car sharing.
Don't know if I'm allowed to recommend a specific service on this board, so go to the most popular search engine (you know the one) and type in "car share vancouver". Click on the first link in the result list. Once there, scroll down to "Vancouver, B.C." and click on that link. Bingo.
I've been using the service for a few months and I've had few problems having a car when I need one. Pretty reasonably priced too, especially if you're only using it occasionally.

Yes, you can date without a car. Meet her somewhere, or arrange to pick her up via bus, bicycle, ferry, what have you. Old fashioned girls do not demand transportation services. Just treat her right, and escort her anywhere you travel after dark.

Where I live the transportation system is pretty good and you usually can get to most places without a car. Even if this was not the case I´d still not understand it why the guy has to drive the girl around and pick her up. (Am I too easy going and expecting too little??? I´m starting to suspect I´m too nice and demand too little and that´s why some guys don´t respect me at all.)
I can say for a fact you don't need a car. I don't drive and my girlfriend lives an hour away. I live in a big city with lots of transportation so I never needed it as transit is better anyway. As long as your not with someone shallow or materialistic it shouldn't matter. My girlfriend knew I didn't drive, but we comprimise. When she is in my neck of the woods she drives of course and when I go out to her area I take the train. My brother never drove either and he is married. If the person likes you then they won't care if you drive or not.
When I first started dating my bf, he didn't have a car he had wrecked it during a race. I didn't mind, I had my own car so I picked him up on our first date. It didn't bother me at all, cause he told me at first and it was my decision to be with him car-less or with a car. Take the bus and meet her there, if she's a real girl she won't mind she would see that you're willing to do anything to see her.
