I agree with you Talia. I actually love drinks or dinner as a first date, b/c I really enjoy conversation/talking to people and getting to know them, asking questions, sensing their humor/wit, see if any connection, etc. But I think it's totally personal...I think bowling is great fun but I might choose it for later date. But Pearl's BF gives a male perspective, so maybe listen to that. Try a few different suggestions, and be open to what others try, and see what feels best.
I did sign up for match late last yr but got a little freaked out by weird pick-up lines...I mean there are some crazy ones people use! So I just started going through friends more..asking people to set me up or going out in big groups where I'd have a chance to get to know more people, and there was that common bond. Once your energy shifts and you are more 'open' I think people pick up on that too..
Too bad we can't all get together and hit the town! We should share our stories - for a good laugh if nothing else.
NLFMH - no pressure! Just have fun.. you've so got the right attitude.
BTW - are you still thinking of law school?
Keep us posted on the emails..I hear you on that too, I'd prefer live conversations but perhaps this is the way to go in these situations.
