I'm going on a date with someone for the first time tonight, it's kind of a blind date and it's kind of professional (business), but it's also kind of not. I am going to meet her at the St. Louis Bread Company tonight. Should I dress casual or fancy? Should I bring flowers? What should I do? I know very little about this girl (other than that she is young a college student, she is hot [according to my uncle], she's German [or atleast she speaks German], and my uncle knows her).



p.s.
I have about 6 hours before the date and am currently wearing a StarCraft II t-shirt (well, I wouldn't dress really nice for school, that wouldn't seem to fit that environment). Do you think I should change into a turtle neck or something? I think it will be fine because she is tutoring me...alone...at a restaurant (not a fancy restaurant, but not a fast food restaurant either).

Dress nice, but don't overdo it. Don't bring flowers. How should we know what you should do?

So she's your tutor? This doesn't sound like a date at all.

dress casually, for definite. be easygoing, but assertive. bring flowers if you like but do NOT act like this:

"um.. yeah.. I got some flowers for you..?"

be ASSERTIVE. you're a man (or at least I hope you are :P) and you should show her that you can be charming and in control. be upfront but not sporadic.. ask her where she'd like to go. if she doesn't know then just go wherever you feel like going. NEVER go somewhere that you do not want to go if it isn't something she suggests.

jeans, a simple t-shirt, maybe an open shirt over that would be good. be hygienic, but bottom line - be confident. all of this information is useless without confidence.

EDIT: :lol: I didn't see that you said she was tutoring you. I dunno, depends on how much older she is than you. but all the information in the top of my post still stands relevant regardless.

Starcraft II T-shirt: hell to the no, I wouldn't even go outside with a shirt like that, I usually use them as PJs. Just wear something nice, but not completely fancy. Dress up smart casual (google it).

for real.

ditch the flowers. dress nice, but not something you wouldn't normally wear. definitely don't wear a starcraft tshirt if you're trying to impress a girl.

This is business, not pleasure (unless you somehow get lucky with some Penthouse story) -look up the restuarant and dress appropriately for it -no flowers kind of odd that you are treating this like a date though...hmmm

maybe he could tutor her in some love... and having the condoms fall out would be genius, she would love it and get the hint...

Well, she is your tutor, and (from what I understand) she doesn't see this as a date. Therefore it's not starting out as a date, you can look like a complete idiot if she's expecting it to be just buisness. That means no flowers. However, you can woo her during dinner. The outcome all depends on your skills.

a nice botton down shirt good pair of jeans and a nice pair of shoes. Girls always look at the shoes first so no dirty ones, if so clean them up. I take it she is your German tutor. try and flirt with her through german she will correct you if you are wrong but its a start for great conversation. Clean up do the 3s and you will be fine.

I'm kinda getting the "I keep my toenail clippings in a baggie in the closet" vibe :lol: TC like rawsavon says anything can happen when two people meet like this, but don't get your hopes up. Until she shows the same interest as you, this meeting is strictly business.

Dress up like a player and make it obvious you're macking on her. It'll at least get something started, whereas you sitting there with your SC T-shirt while she's tutoring you is about as likely lead to something as you getting struck by lightning.

asking for advice is asking to fail. Be yourself if this is a date.
