Occasionally, some people need reminders of what to do on a date. As a hint, I will include some rules to dating to make it easier on all of us. Here's one dating commandment:
If you ask someone out on a date, you should plan it and pay for it.
Period.
You asked someone to take time out of their life to spend time with you. They agreed to do it. You should want to impress them and they will be impressed if you take the time to plan the time you will spend togethe--beyond touching yourself in the shower thinking about what you will do when you get them in bed.
Imagine if you will, Romeo asking Juliet to go Dutch on the cost of the poison. Not too romantic, huh?
Even McDonald's can be romantic if someone pays for your Big Mac. They might feel more inclined to give your Happy Meal a "happy ending." Trust me.
