In your opinion, if you've met a girl and you want to date her and hopefully ultimately have a relationship, how do the actual courtship rules work?

 

- Should I pick up the girl to go on the date, should she pick me up, or is it better to meet at the location (movie, restaurant, bar, whatever)? Does this change once you have established a relationship or had more and more dates?

 

- If she suggested a "date" but I ultimately name the date, time, and location, who pays? (I know many girls think if they ask they're supposed to pay).

 

- If you've been on a handful of dates, is it too soon to get her something small for Christmas?

 

- Should I pay attention to things like whether or not she unlocks my car door after I've opened her door for her, or is that stupid?

 

Thanks for your help.

Courtship? :love: Awww...

 

I prefer to be picked up. The guy I'm dating now likes to occasionally "meet up" somewhere, such as a restaurant, and it always throws me off. But I guess it makes sense because the locations he chooses are kinda in the middle of our hard-to-get-to locations. I actually had to ask a friend about this because it seemed weird, and I learned it's common to meet up, but I think most girls would prefer to get picked up....UNLESS it's the first date.

 

Your paying scenario is tricky - not sure.

 

A CARD ONLY would be okay for Christmas. Or maybe a piece of Mistletoe...hint hint.

 

Don't pay attention to silly "rules" like car door lock stuff...who doesn't have automatic car locks nowadays anyway! (I know, not everyone, just sayin'...)

Wow... Unlock the car door... You took the Bronx tale a little serious. lol.

 

Anyways, For the first date just met someplace in the middle or something. Go out to dinner or something. I usually always go met the guy at places. Then once we get to know eachother better then I let him drive or I drive... either one.

 

The Paying thing... If you ask her out on the date then basically you are the one that should pay. She will offer to pay and you should turn her down. Now if she asks you out she is the eone that is suppose to pay.

 

Well, I started dating a guy like right before christmas last year and we actually got eachother a little something. It all depends.
