Or marry a girl 6-10 years younger.

You just have to be creative. Independent Italian places are often nice and not expensive. There’s a French inspired place near me that is awesome. It’s supposed to be a neighborhood place, but it’s in a former residence and with the way they decorated, it’s charming. If you don’t do alcohol, two people including tip will be $80(there’s only 3 menu items over $30 and they include a small appetizer and bread no cost). Low end glasses of wine are $8-11 so that won’t bump up the cost much. Only rub is that for Saturdays you have to make reservations two weeks in advance. There’s a really nice beach and pier less than a mile away. So it’s very easy to have a nice first date that is romantic and affordable to any guy that is working full time. I did something similar with my wife on our first date in the same area and it worked perfectly. She was in love with me before our third date.

What if she has a peanut allergy?

Man Poses as Poor Bricklayer for True Love - Women Regret Humiliating Him

That is no different than having an attractive young woman costumed and masked lo look old and ugly and then get rejected by the men while she claims the men should ignore looks and choose her for personality.

Booger says

I could make a better date night at my house 10 out of 10 times food wise. Surprised that's on the list. Probably more sexy and masculine as well. Plus my house is better than most peoples or will be when finished. Not in that game though.

Booger says

Does this mean she just wants sex ASAP? I always thought you had to feed them first.

A lot of girls think Cheesecake Factory is fine dining; others love Red Lobster (always bet on black).

The 'pimp' offensive (which many sociopathic type men manage to master to bait the hook for many women) is to shower them with love bombing, obsession over them (or its simulacrum), romantic dinners at expensive haunts, expensive gifts, shopping tours at top shops etc. etc. It depends on male resources. Of course, after nailing and charming the fillies, you have a yawling stalker if she wants more goods after addicting her to attention and resources (also sex if the man is good at it and she likes it, vagina brain connection).

Sometimes lower resources can be compensated by intense attention and soap opera lines, and they will go for that with less intense economic gestures. However, the flow of resources (or at least its token gestures) always spills down the gravity slope of sex to the females, unless they are so unattractive or needy that a crafty sociopathic gigolo can wheedle their resources.

It's pretty expensive, but energetic men who are goal oriented can wind up juggling a few women at a time this way. However, the women almost always collide around the drone in their sneakiness and possessiveness.

Also, women are aphrodisiaced by proximity to money, power, and fame/social status and will exchange the puss for those even if there is no other tangible result (unless pregnancy with the permanent child hook are the goal).

When I was in my 30's-40's, my charm and attributes were enough to snag females.

Now I use financial subterfuge; in several ways they see how I have spending money and they like spending time with me for that reason.

Example: Buy a new 4x4 truck; "Did you pay cash?" "Yes, I don't like to use credit." She found out I have cash handy.

Example: Take a couple friends to lunch and waitress notices you pick up the tab; you return a few weeks later and pick up the tab again.
The waitress knows you can show her a good time. "Did you notice she only spoke to you?" Yeah, I did notice that.

Girls seek money, fun, and attraction. They regulate their response according to what the guy has in larger proportion.

Can't stand either of those chains. I'm a local guy. I'd rather pay a local business that has above average food than a chain that sells below average food at a higher price.

Isn't Red Lobster out of business anyway? All the locations when I go to the suburbs are all closed.

I do like BWW for a quick lunch with the wife 2-3 times a year. Their wings are fine. Wings are a food that I don't like overcomplicated. Give me a good sauce and that's the core of what you're eating. A chunk of a bird is fool proof. Have a good sauce.

Not dating ever again, but I wouldn't take a chick on a date to BWW unless they were a sports junkie and something was on they liked for the first 3-6 months. I'd do Top Golf, the food sucks, but a woman that can and wants to golf is hot to me. Now that I think about it golf is a top 3 date thing if you know how to play and have the patience to teach if they don't know. If you're in sale, male or female, golf is a must to know. You will look like an idiot if you don't know how to play if you do sales.

There are different types of women who look for different types of resources a man can provide. Some like the money bags beta, some like the Chad, some like the Cowboy, some like the Nerd.

Most women will get the baby rabies sometime in their late 20's. That, more than anything, has them thinking about getting off the cock carousel.

There are no unicorns, but some women do actually have enough presence of mind to make intelligent choices, at least 3 weeks per month.

It is true - the only person a woman (well, 99% or so) will love unconditionally is her child. Thus the emotional hierarchy: Men love women, women love their children. This is why Trump has the prenup with Melania so that if she divorces him, Barron gets zip.

I didn't bring it up but after a few months of dating one told me under no circumstances would she ever go with me to Cheesecake Factory. I never understood why. That's the only place she mentioned. She must have read something about it in Vogue.

She has/had taste. Cheesecake factory is pure trash. Excellent at marketing, but not making good food. Not hyperbolic but I'll never go there again. It's 17 year old date night looking to impress. Problem is it's completely unimpressive from a culinary standpoint. No different than Red Lobster.

If a chick is impressed with those joints run, don't walk. Or at least be willing to work on the white or black trash that they are and show them a good place.

The food is almost any restaurant chain is edible; at least you won't get sick there.

I can't remember what I ordered at Cheesecake Factory nor Red Lobster; I was actually thinking about something else the entire time.

If you are just going for the cheesecake, it's fine. It's everything else that the sucks. And they put way too many fires with your order.

Probably for the obese thread, but portions are way too big when you go out to eat. A burger is a burger, but the they toss 1,000 fries on there. I've been going out to breakfast every Sunday for the last two months when my son does pole vault. I only eat half of the omelette and hash browns.

If I were dating today I'd go to places where the portions are smaller. Generally legit fancy places. If the girl is still hungry after a normal fancy dinner you'll have a land whale on your hands in the coming years. It's a good test.

One of my wife's good friends could eat anything she wanted and was actually cut and thin. Metabolism changed. She's fat now at 37. That won't ever change. She's used to eating more than necessary. Drop the $200 on the first date at a legit joint, but has smaller portions. You'll know in 1-2 hours if they're a keeper. Or they could be bulimic. But if they say they're stuffed I'd continue forward.

Yeah, any place that has 50 things on the menu is going to pretty much suck at all of them. But there are plenty of worse places so I wonder why she brought that up randomly out of the blue? It just seemed weird. Now seeing it as #1 on that list is also weird. Not saying I like the place or anything.

I did drag a chick from a bar in Palo Alto to the factory to, "Go pig out on cheese cakes", and we both ate a few in one sitting. Neither of us was fat. No complaints.

My wife and I invariably doggie bag and get a couple of meals worth, and I don't even eat the bread any more.
