jack5100nv Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 I am taking a girl on a 6th dates on a hike in the morning. This is my plan. I am going to bring her flowers n the morning. Go on the Hike (3 miles, small) and following are the items I am going to bring for a little picnic: Grapes Strawberries Bread Cheeses (Different Kinds) Chocolate Apple Cider (She can't have alcohol) Do you think bringing flowers is a good idea? I do not want to sound too desperate. What else can I bring to eat for the picnic?
Lucky555 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 haha wow can i join? I will bring the flowers! hahaha that sounds like an amazing date! I think you have enough. Use the flowers for another date.
mella Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 I don't think apple cider is a good idea. Maybe sparkling water? A lot of people don't like apple cider in my experience - we serve it at a fall festival where I work, that's how I know.
alphamale Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 Do you think bringing flowers is a good idea? no What else can I bring to eat for the picnic? chicken salad samwiches, girls love those
Stung Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 Nothing with mayo if you're going to be carrying it around on a hot day. Maybe cold cuts or peppered salami, or hummus, stuffed olives or dolmas, little bins of greek salad...although with good bread, fruit, a selection of cheeses, and chocolate, you might not even need anything more. Fried chicken is a pretty common picnic food but it'll be greasy and tough to eat romantically. Personally while I do like apple cider I think still or sparkling water is more refreshing for a hike. Make sure the bread is fresh and crusty. And I think the flowers are a nice idea (but maybe overkill if you're packing the lunch, you could safely save flowers for the next date I think)--but if you're going to give them to her make sure you do it while she's still home/somewhere she can put them in a vase. I love picnic dates and still have them all the time with my husband. Have a great time.
JustJoe Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 Roast chicken is better than fried, IMO. Less greasy. Good quality ham or prosciutto, But the rest of your ideas are fine. No flowers.
marsle85 Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 That sounds like an INCREDIBLE date! (including/ESPECIALLY the flowers!) If a guy took me on that date I would be calling my friends ASAP when I got home. So sweet, so romantic, and different. Don't worry if you look too desperate... you're at the 6th date- at this point you both are into eachother, this is the fun time. And ultimately, if things DO work out- you'll sweep her off her feet, and if not? She'll STILL brag to her friends what this great guy (even if he's not for her) did...and I bet you her friend will want your number.
Author jack5100nv Posted March 20, 2010 Author Posted March 20, 2010 no So, alphamale, when do you think a guy should give flowers to a girl. At what point in dating or relationship?
marsle85 Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 So, alphamale, when do you think a guy should give flowers to a girl. At what point in dating or relationship? You won't HAVE a relationship if you don't BRING the flowers! Ignore alphamale! I love his posts, but really- in these instances you have to seriously just follow your heart. When I was a senior in highschool, a friend of mine called and said he'd left his folder at my house. I came outside on my porch to give it to him and he grabbed me and kissed me. Seriously one of the most romantic, unforgettable moments ever. It makes you feel special and wanted and desired. Stop thinking about what's "right" and "when and where and how" and just DO IT if your HEART wants you to. The very best moments are the ones that are real and only inspired because of affection. Science works in dating. I'm not going to deny that, but not in things like this- you want to give her flowers, so give her flowers.
